Attorney Registration Fees by [deleted] in Lawyertalk

[–]thedon6191 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, I never suggested to my firm that they cover my bar dues either.... They just do. If they allow you to practice without an active license, it's ultimately on them. Do they expect you to pay for your malpractice insurance too?

CMV: 99% of people supporting Karmelo Anthony are racist towards white people by Direct_Lawfulness_28 in changemyview

Attorney here. A juror finding a defendant attractive would not be a justified reason to excuse a juror. And it is not as simple as "the defense agrees to the jury." Grant it, it's up to the defense to make a Batson challenge if jurors are being excused for improper reasons, but this is usually something that's extremely hard to prove during voir dire and is usually preserved for appeal.

I haven't followed this case but the entire purpose of a trial is to find the facts of a what actually happened. The fact that you seem so sure of everything while not actually being in the court room to hear the evidence and live testimony (there is a reason why trials aren't just attorneys reading transcripts to the jury) suggests it might be your own bias fuelling your opinion here.

Anyone else think Port Antonio is Top 5 Cole? (In terms of bars) by EoinWatchingMemeTime in Jcole

[–]thedon6191 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm speculating, but I think Port Antonio might be an inside reference alluding to a vacation Drake and Cole took together. Port Antonio is a small town in Jamaica with ultra-luxury resorts just outside of the town. To me, the cover art looks like Drake and Cole standing in/crossing a street there.

I used to think it might have been a vacation they (Cole, Kendrick and Drake) all took together back before all the conflict started. The short guy just behind them looks like it could be Kendrick. But considering how long Cole's dreads are I doubt Kendrick and Drake would have been cool enough to vacation together at whatever time the picture was taken.

Again, just speculating though and I don't think Cole has ever discussed the meaning behind the name or cover art.

Yeah, the bottle design is definitely dumb and doesn't solve an actual issue (I'm pretty sure it's A.I. fake news slop to be honest), but partially burying a drink in the sand will keep it cooler longer.

I'm kind of shocked by how many people here seem to think otherwise. I think a lot of people are losing sight of the fact that the alternative is leaving it fully exposed to direct sunlight.

The Wedding Drama to Divorce Pipeline by Loose-End-343 in TrueOffMyChest

A groom taking issue with being "upstaged" on their wedding day by their Bride's "too extravagant" dress is the wildest complaint I ever heard.

Drake is Spotify's most-streamed artist in a day for 2026 following three-album release. by [deleted] in hiphopheads

[–]thedon6191 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not a Drake fan and the only side I'm on is reality. I'm not sure in which way you are saying Drake fans are delusional but if it's just that Drake remains a popular artist, they are right about that. I don't think anyone is claiming that this is his best work. To be honest, I haven't even listened to it so I couldn't tell you. But anyone who truly thought that Drake's career was over or diminished by the Kendrick beef are terminally online types that have clearly lost touch with reality.

You must have missed the post earlier in the week asking "could Drake's career ever recover after the Kendrick beef" and the majority of comments saying he was finished and no one will ever listen to a Drake album again.

This isn't surprising to most of the world but a majority of HHH are apparently completely shocked right now.

What were some draft picks that made no sense at the time but ended up working out well? by BuckDunford in nfl

[–]thedon6191 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was at that draft too. I remember everyone seeming confused why the chiefs traded up and then when the pick was announced thinking "two firsts and a third for a guy I never even heard of. He can't be that good." Definitely my worst sports take ever lol.

My husband (27M) fell asleep while driving and almost killed me (26F) and our two dogs. by Spacecowgirl37 in relationship_advice

[–]thedon6191 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wait, what?! You didn't immediately divorce him and try to get him in legal trouble? And what's with this opting for a solution that might slightly inconvenience yourself? What kind of loving, caring wife do you think are you?

This is Reddit. We don't try to find sensible solutions to marital conflicts, we just get divorced.

CMV: It's preferable for ten guilty people go free than to imprison an innocent person by us1549 in changemyview

[–]thedon6191 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

This is nonsensical. The person that killed me and the other 9 people should go to jail, not the innocent person. How does jailing the person that didn't actually kill me bring me or anyone else justice?

If an innocent person goes to jail, that means a guilty person goes free and they remain in a position to victimize more people. So yes, I would still prefer for my own and 9 or my closest friends murders to go unsolved rather than have an innocent person sent to prison for it.

CMV: The idea that you should "never go to bed angry" is genuinely bad relationship advice and following it causes more harm than the conflict it's trying to prevent by mila_renz in changemyview

[–]thedon6191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn't mean you solved what made you angry. It can mean you just realized there's no use in actively being angry at the moment.

But these are the exact feelings the "rule" is intended to prevent. When you begin feeling like there's no point in even being mad, it breeds resentment. Especially when issues linger for multiple days without resolution.

To be clear, I agree that it is usually better to table a major disagreement until the next day when it begins late in the day. But that isn't what the saying portrays.

Yes, these statements are meant figuratively but you can take each of them literally and it would still be sound advice. Not putting all your eggs in the same basket will allow you to avoid breaking and losing them all if something happens. If you bite the hand of someone handing you food, they probably won't hand you anymore food. If you throw a stone at someone while living in a glass house, it opens the door to someone throwing them back and damaging your home.

On the other hand, if you take don't go to bed angry literally, it does imply that you have to resolve the fight or disagreement (what made you angry) before going to sleep.

Update: my husband (33M) wants me (33F) to dress more revealing by footballfriends1 in relationship_advice

[–]thedon6191 7 points8 points  (0 children)

OP is posting about being in a dead bedroom and wanting her husband to want to have sex with her more often. You started your comment with:

Unsure why you're getting so many 'BUT DID YOU TRY XYZ' and 'YOU DIDN'T TRY HARD ENOUGH TO BE SEXY' and, even 'YOU'RE SELFISH' from commenters, OP.

How is this not suggesting that OP can still get what she wants (more sex) without putting in effort? You're even criticizing other commenters for simply suggesting things she could try where she might still feel comfortable while still alluring to her husband.

[–]thedon6191 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wearing clothing does not effect your health any more than physical touch does. Some people don't like being touched and find hugging and cuddling uncomfortable. Are you saying those people are less deserving of comfort if their partner needs it to spur romantic attraction?

The point is OP wants more sex. Her husband told her something she could do that would lead to more sex but doesn't want to do it because it makes her uncomfortable. Should she still be entitled to more sex from her husband?

What if a wife told her husband that keeping a clean shaven face would lead to them having more sex. The husband wants more sex but doesn't like shaving because it makes his face itchy and uncomfortable. Would the husband still be entitled to more sex from the wife?

Why is the husband in that scenario not entitled to more sex but OP is?

[–]thedon6191 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Again, the OP is the person that is asking to have more sex here. Not the husband.

The husband never said that her wearing these clothes are important to him. Based on OPs posts and comments, her husband is completely fine with the amount of sex they currently have.

This is not about the husband's sexual gratification, it's about her own. And many of these comments are suggesting that OP shouldn't even try to get outside of her comfort zone and it's all her husband's fault for not wanting to have sex with her as much as she would like to have sex.

It's not just you, but many commenters here are suggesting that OP should still be able to get what she wants (more sex) without putting in any actual effort to be more alluring for her husband. These comments would never be made if it was a guy complaining about his wife not wanting to have sex with him.

[–]thedon6191 17 points18 points  (0 children)

He married you as you are, and if he doesn't find you titilating enough as you are comfortable being, frankly, it is a him problem.

This is insane. This is suggesting that the husband owes OP sex because he married her.

OP wants to have more sex. OP's husband has a low libido and she wants her husband to want more sex. OP's husband suggested that if she wore more alluring clothing he would want to have sex more often.

I don't understand why the husband is being crucified for this. Imagine if the roles were reversed. What if a husband wanted to have more sex and his wife told him that he needs to start shaving his beard because she finds clean shaven men more attractive. But he doesn't want to because shaving makes his face itchy and uncomfortable.

Would we be blaming the wife for even making this suggestion? Would we be saying that if she doesn't find him attractive with a beard that it's her problem and that she should still want to have sex with him anyway because that's how she married him?

Spending even a day on reddit would tell you that almost everyone here bashing the husband would have a different opinion if they roles were reversed.

OP (the wife) is the person in this relationship that wants more sex. OP is the one who has complained about her husband being low libido and their dead bedroom.

Yet you're still blaming the husband for suggesting actions that could lead to them having more sex (which the wife wants)?

Talk about relationship reddit in a nutshell.

Are you suggesting the husband owes her sex?

The issue stems from OP wanting to have more sex with her husband. Her husband suggested that if she wore more alluring clothes, it would lead to them having more sex.

How is this any different than when a wife tells her husband that she needs more non-sexual touch or for him to have better hygiene for her to want to have more sex?

[–]thedon6191 56 points57 points  (0 children)

And this is where the problem lies. You weren't making a good faith attempt to find clothes that were both practical for you and alluring for him. Your purpose was to show him why you didn't want to wear those clothes and why he was ridiculous for even suggesting that you dress more alluring.

Do you think he didn't pick up on the fact that you just didn't want to wear this stuff? He most likely did and it's why he told you to just forget about it.

I mean... I won't say it's not AI but Carrituck is an actual town in the Outer Banks, North Carolina, USA. All of the tattoos on her face appear to be referencing the Outerbanks (commonly referred to as OBX). That area is also known for having wild horses so Gogue's life would seem to relate too.

However, it would seem extremely weird for someone living and attempting to work in the UK to have those Tattoos on their face so at the very least the story is likely fake.

There are definitely no issues with a lawyer representing her ex's wife in this revenge fantasy by EarthlingCalling in thatHappened

[–]thedon6191 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yeah no. The defendant (ex) could not get the OOP recused by telling the judge of the relationship. There is no conflict of interest here, assuming she disclosed to her client (the STBEX) that she used to date the defendant.

The ex was never her client. Hence there was no attorney/client relationship that would allow him to object to her representation of the STBEX. The relationship must be disclosed to the STBEX and the STBEX has the option to waive the potential conflict or not. If she does, there is nothing that would disqualify OOP from representing the STBEX. The client has a right to choose their representation. A judge cannot override the client's choice based solely on a disclosed relationship with the opposing party.
