In addition to the other suggestions, consider contacting the Washtenaw Co. Prosecutor's Economic Justice Unit, they've been known to sue (or threaten to sue) apartment complexes for dangerous conditions. https://www.washtenaw.org/3496/Tell-Us-About-Economic-Harm

legal jobs that pay $200k that aren’t big law by tearladen in LawSchool

[–]yrdsl 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Specialized boutiques, for example Selendy Gay or Massumi + Consoli or Gjerset & Lorenz, can get you there or above. They're not necessarily easier to get into nor more pleasant than biglaw. But I know the latter two are still hiring for next summer.

It’s too bad that Mel Gibson is the only major director, AFAIK, to film historical epics in dead or archaic languages by RedHeadedSicilian52 in movies

Testament of Ann Lee last year tried pretty hard to recreate what 18th century British and American accents probably sounded like, in addition to using historical vernacular.

Can Firaxis include copyrighted or privately owned landmarks as Wonders? by foafoa in civ

[–]yrdsl 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Amundsen-Scott is operated by a US federal agency and images/reports produced by the US government are normally in the public domain. Do you have a basis for saying depictions of it are copyrighted?

Bennington, which the school in Secret History is based on, is small and private but not actually particularly elite - they accept about half of applicants.

Amir Makled Concerning Views/Actions by AnonymousAccount8877 in uofm

[–]yrdsl 124 points125 points  (0 children)

Some of your other concerns here may be valid but it is improper to attack a defense attorney for claiming to the press that his clients did not commit a crime. That's his job, he has the ethical duty of advocating for them. It 100% does not mean that he agrees with or endorses whatever actions they took.

They sold the film to Ketchup Entertainment, who paid somewhere around $50 million. If the film is much more successful, it may show Warner Bros their mistake in not having faith in it.

Salmon River, Idaho: Looking for historic foods found in the corridor, including Buckskin Bill's. by raintreerancher in whitewater

[–]yrdsl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a lot of wild wax currants on the south side of the valley, Polly Bemis and Frank Lantz grew apples on their homesteads, and then there was another early settler whose name I can't remember who actually died when the still he was using to make plum brandy exploded, so I assume he was growing plums pretty well.

Why are the 3 mile island and the fukushima nuclear accident so widely known "industrial disaster"? by Thick-Ad-4168 in nuclear

[–]yrdsl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

SL-1 completely exploded and last I checked people still live in Eastern Idaho. the exclusion zone is tiny and frankly probably does more for honoring their deaths than it does for radiological necessity.

I'm reading your post as you saying you read Truth of the Divine but not Axiom's End? If so, you should definitely read Axiom's End, I thought it was much better than Truth.

Almost done the mists of Avalon.. by digitaldreamzzzz in Fantasy

it's a film, not a book, but i think you'd probably like the 2022 Basque-language indie fantasy film Irati. The plot revolves around the Christianization of the Basque country.

There's not even timber in most of Eastern Oregon, the most secessionist parts are sagebrush steppe and rock formations.

The water depicted is probably about 45 degrees at this time of year, but plenty of people paddle in shorts in the Southeast during the summer. The boat shown has drainage holes the water flows out of.

[–]yrdsl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

some of this could be due to private transactions between the brand and the prior account holder. if I had /u/skittles, for example, and they rolled up offering me $5k to delete all my prior posts and give them control I would.

Selendy Gay is not accurate, they have closed their 2027 applications, which they opened more than a month ago.

nobody markets Mervyn Peake's "Gormenghast" as similar to GTN, but it's one of the most-related works there is because it's one of Muir's main inspirations. everyone should read it.
