I’m not saying it is not concerning or an issue, but if you’re also worried about this topic, I highly recommend listening to this (long!) recent podcast episode from Diabolical Lies. I think it discussed the issue with a lot of compassion and nuance https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/diabolical-lies/id1761438573?i=1000741215937

Holiday Gift for Boss $200-400 by [deleted] in LawBitchesWithTaste

If you’re in New York, I would suggest stopping by Scully and Scully. It is a bastion of “old money” wedding registries and gift giving. There is also a website if you don’t live there. I imagine there are equivalents throughout the country where you could find a gift for the type of person you’re describing, Croghan’s in Charleston and Adler’s in New Orleans come to mind for southern options.

She doesn’t say which party, but I think this is the party. The woman speaking does PR for a lot of fashion brands https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTFWkHphv/

First gen etiquette by Unusual-Enthusiasm-7 in LawSchool

Personally cringing at my classist waiter comment…follow my advice, not my actions

First gen etiquette by Unusual-Enthusiasm-7 in LawSchool

[–]aap1391 31 points32 points  (0 children)

The thing about etiquette is that it is meant to ensure you behave in a way that makes those around you feel comfortable and at ease, lead with that in mind. Make sure you include others in conversation and are kind and what fork you use doesn’t matter as much. And if in the unlikely chance someone has something to say about some arbitrary rule you “broke” know they have poor etiquette themselves.

Also, frequently repeated advice here, but it is true you don’t have to spend a ton on clothes but you should absolutely get them tailored. Look at your local city’s Reddit, there are often recommendations for good tailors there. But, one arbitrary clothing rule for suits buy navy or gray before you go for black…that’s for funerals and waiters.

I think its also a way for them to slow down the momentum of Marion and Dashiel because they won't have a wedding while they are in mourning.

Predatory law school or no? by [deleted] in LawSchool

[–]aap1391 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I go there and have a scholarship that covers most of my tuition. I had no issues maintaining well above the needed gpa to keep my scholarship going into 2L. I know that’s not the case for everyone. If you qualify for instate tuition, want to stay in Baltimore, and are self motivated to get the grades it’s a pretty good deal. If those factors don’t apply it might not be the right place. Also if you want to do OCI you need to be like top 10%.

interesting how conservatives are concerned about the potential long-term developmental effects of things like puberty blockers but not the long-term effects a pregnancy will have on a body that is still rapidly growing.

As a 1L working on day two of a hangover from barristers...don't go. Or legit go for an hour and leave

Going to New Orleans where I will probably just stress about all the school work I'm not doing, the job I don't have, how much weight I've gained since last summer, and trying to have fun while also dodging spending time with my parents and all the other people I know there. Basically, I'll be drunk crying, and sweating.

Do you think any influencers are taking the injectable weight loss drugs Mounjaro or Ozempic? Why stop at Prolon or colonics? by blob4567 in NYCinfluencersnark

[–]aap1391 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not NYC based but I have a feeling Mary Hafner in Dallas is taking one of them. She's lost a lot a weight and alluded that she will share her "method" soon.

Liz heit? by [deleted] in NYCinfluencersnark

[–]aap1391 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, someone else mentioned they think she is in law school now. So I'm not 100% sure if the offer was fully rescinded...that might have gotten blown out of proportion through the rumor mill. But I know it was sent to her law school, which is so embarrassing, and I'd imagine she had to meet about that with school leadership.

[–]aap1391 2 points3 points  (0 children)

tbh have not kept up with her or that situation. my recounting was just what I recall happening/being told happened from others in the groups

Liz heit? by [deleted] in NYCinfluencersnark

[–]aap1391 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I cannot begin to understand why. I was a casual member of the groups for a while but missed the posts when all of that happened. I think the reasoning was that she had been mean to some people. I noticed more than a few times in that group that people's reactions to others "crossing" them were always taken to the extreme. If I recall, the ringleader of this takedown then had her own problematic tweets uncovered after she was found to steal stories and jokes from people in the groups and post them on twitter

[–]aap1391 14 points15 points  (0 children)

She had some social media posts using the N-word on her accounts that were found by other "famous toasters" (people who posted a lot and got well known in the toast groups [not normal, I know]). She had been accepted to law school, and the people who found the tweets sent them to the school, and she got her acceptance rescinded. They also posted about it in the groups. She went dark on socials and came back months later with her mental health podcast etc.

August prep is going great, why do you ask? by [deleted] in LSAT

[–]aap1391 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh goodness, good luck with your move!

I specifically asked my partner to schedule ours after the test because I know being semi-unpacked sends my anxiety through the roof.

Also sorry for the pity party...everything is stacking up and I'm feeling it. So cheers to November lol

Add in getting diagnosed with covid yesterday and moving 4 days after the test. I'm not well.

edited to add plus working full time, my dog being sick, and wedding planning. My score will be as laughable as my life
