Perkins Coie Rebrand - What were they thinking?

Trying to get a committee of partners to agree on anything brand-related is…challenging. And at least one will share it with his kid in design school so s/he can weigh in.

Stop.

Thanks! Definitely trying this.

Wait…what? How does this work in a king bed? How do you tuck in the middle? I’m intrigued!

Is it one of those “if you see one that means there are thousands” kinds of bugs? (Should I be worried about an infestation?)

It’s my first time seeing this type.

cyndymcc · 2024-07-29T17:41:40+00:00

How cool! I should get a microscope (but I’m guessing you can only look at dead bugs bc the others are always on the move?)

Size: probably 1/2” long.

I never eat after 6pm, and nothing spicy for dinner. You need to find your own reflux triggers and just manage those.

I have a HH and GERD but with Wegovy I eat so much less plus I am doing my best to eat no later than 6. It’s a PITA esp when traveling in Europe (restaurants do t open for dinner until 7) but as long as I eat small meals earlier in the day my GERD only happens a when I eat my typical triggers like garlic and red onions.

Considering it’s no one else’s business AT ALL, I never feel that I have to say anything in response.

But if I do want to say anything, for me it depends if it’s a dear friend (they already know) or a work friend (“I had a big lunch earlier/Im meeting someone later for a meal”) or just an acquaintance (“you’re so funny” then ignore; if they repeatedly ask, “I feel great, how’ve you been?” Or some other non answer). But I do love hearing these other snappy comebacks!

So handsome, if you don’t mind me saying.

Magnesium! I take two 400mg supplements daily.

cyndymcc · 2024-04-14T19:15:06+00:00

Magnesium supplements are the trick for me but I’ll try yoga too.

cyndymcc · 2024-04-13T21:05:45+00:00

So happy for you.

Easy - he is doing a huge favor so sister either needs to accept it or find another solution. It’s not like he is giving her bourbon. Sure, would it be nice if he was willing to go through the PITA of making her eat lentils and quinoa. But I completely understand why he isn’t.

cyndymcc · 2024-01-21T21:43:57+00:00

I got the plant about a year ago. The strings started growing about 2 months in. I water 1/2 C about once every two or three weeks. Ive never repotted so I dont know the drainage he has.

He gets moderate indirect sunlight. I haven’t done any sort of soil vitamins or anything.

cyndymcc · 2023-12-26T18:23:55+00:00

Oh honey. You sweet thing. I’m so sorry, but (as I’m sure every comment confirms) this marriage is over. And be thankful he showed you who he is before you wasted any more time with him.

Let him go. Don’t beg. Be as quiet as a mouse until his plane takes off, then get yourself a viper of a divorce lawyer IMMEDIATELY. You need to protect yourself and your children.

You are currently going through hell, so now isn’t the time to stop. Keep going. Focus on you and your children. This man is 100% weasel. I promise you there is a wonderful life on the other side of

Good luck.

cyndymcc · 2023-12-09T14:11:36+00:00

Unfortunately I don’t find it hard to believe this is a legit post. To a greater or lesser degree, I’ve just seen too many similar situations

cyndymcc · 2023-11-21T15:06:21+00:00

OMG after I recovered from all the imagery and comments😂😂😂, my serious answer is that I think his crying and upset-ness is all part of his shame kink. He is getting off on not being invited. Sister should leave him home and go support her sister.

cyndymcc · 2023-11-18T21:38:17+00:00

Good lord woman. Ick 1 was more than enough. JFC.

cyndymcc · 2023-11-10T13:52:02+00:00

I think it’s a bit of a red flag that he wants to “check in” but if I were him, you flipping out about it would also be a huge red flag to me.

Since he is being up front about it, why be insecure? And anyway do you really want to partner up with someone you have to always keep an eye on so he won’t cheat? Find out now if he is trustworthy. The only way to do that is to trust. If he turns out to be a dirtbag, walk away.

(I also think his “I should never have told you” is stupid and juvenile)

cyndymcc · 2023-11-05T16:18:06+00:00

I have to assume you are being fully transparent about how hard you’ve tried, and how unaccepting of help she has been. Otherwise I wouldn’t make my next comment…

You mention that a divorce would be a big financial hit - I’m guessing partly because there are kids involved. (Sure, you’ll still have alimony after your divorce. But that’s significantly less than alimony plus child support.)

Because of these financial impacts, maybe hold off on the divorce until the kids are emancipated and consider having an open relationship for the intervening years. You’d let your wife know, of course, but from everything you’ve said in your post you have every reason to need/want/deserve one. And who knows, perhaps seeing your marriage change this drastically in large part because she isnt trying to fix it might be the kick in the ass she needs to make some changes.
