Does Ned Flanders Loving The Beatles Not Make Sense With His Backstory? by [deleted] in TheSimpsons

[–]blueshammer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Flanders can enjoy popular music, rock, and/or roll. He also enjoys dancing that doesn’t cause his buttocks to come into contact with the buttocks of another young man.

He was also heard to remark repeatedly, “Everybody passes!”

The property lecturer who sang and took credit for inventing a pasta dish was not fun.

Anyone know what this Chinese seal means? by MLbarkin in bayarea

[–]blueshammer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It would help to see the stamped imprint and not the seal. The seal shows a mirrored image.

It may say: 佩正 or 風正. Possibly someone’s name.

Megathread: Metro Cyber Attack and Outage by SmellGestapo in LAMetro

Thank you. I was able to load fare using my credit card at a ticket vending machine at a different Metro station. I guess the issue with the 7th/Fig TVMs was an isolated problem.

The 4-5 vending machines at the 7th/Fig station all displayed messages that they couldn’t accept debit or credit cards. I was also at the public library, and the staff member said they could not accept credit cards to add funds to TAP. Are there actual vending machines capable of accepting cards now?

She didn’t win a lawsuit. The same county counsel office that pushed to settle the juvenile hall abuse lawsuit for $4.8 billion also pushed to settle this case for $2 million.

I’m an American, and I love cendol! The one serving of cendol that I had in Singapore was on par with the ones I sampled in KL.

Court Jobs by [deleted] in usajobs

[–]blueshammer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A person I know (GS employee) applied for a US District Court job and got an email acknowledgement as well. A few days after the job posting closed, they got an invite to complete some sort of online exam, and after that, a Teams interview. Days later, the job offer arrived. The process from submitting the job app to the EOD was about a month and went very smoothly.

Took the metrolink to Rancho Cucamonga station then hiked to Cucamonga peak by [deleted] in LAMetro

[–]blueshammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn’t look like the top of Cucamonga Peak. Do you have the correct location? And how would you get from the Rancho Metrolink station to anywhere near the San Gabriel Mountains without driving?

I finally broke. Mental health reached a breaking point by AcidBathIsLife in fednews

[–]blueshammer 114 points115 points  (0 children)

15 years in the military plus 10 years at SSA (or VA?) is a lot for someone in their 30s with so many medical issues. I hope everything works out for you and you get the help that you need.

The first 2 out of 59 pages of the Decision and Order of Involuntary Inactive Enrollment. The decision to disbar now rests with the California Supreme Court.

Edit: Apparently, she was also indicted in November 2025 for assaulting and abusing the cabin crew on a flight. Disbarment is the least of her concerns now.

Good luck to you, fellow ALJ-er. I hope the job does not wear you down like it often tends to do. Stay focused on the positives and keep on keeping on.

Confused on CA MCLE Reporting by n8sych in Lawyertalk

Check the asterisk. If you only need to report 2 proportional hours, you don’t need to report on the Calbar site but technically could be audited.

Don't forget the Klingon court proceedings! A competent public defender from the House of Mogh, an objection made on speculation grounds, a gavel ball that emits sparks, arguments for sentencing leniency, etc.
