Yeah, it's difficult to reconcile. We became intimately aware during Trump1. Why did we not have a Biden government release the files? Only logical conclusion is the logical one.
Just watched Hook with my daughter this weekend, so glad to see some obscure reference to it being made. Great flick, unfairly panned by critics, I won't stand for it. Bad form.
And even more to the point, they've locked chat. But yeah, I play traine eater and dumb obbies with my kids, and it's whatever. Some games are mindless. Some games are just shitty platformers. Some games have them doing math. There's a real variety. They also get exposed to scammy nonsense, and I'm okay with them building up: A, their tolerance for bullshit, and B, their ability to sense out scams.
Yeah, I guess I'm missing the point. You said only high value cases get lawyers, and I just knew that to not be true, and so that's what I said. Yeah, are people with 50/50 cases getting representation? Probably not. I certainly see enough pro se plaintiffs though, and from my perspective I understand why they can't find lawyers.
Part of my job includes sitting in on meetings of land use boards, and the number of applications for warehouses, starting back around 2020, was astonishing. And yeah, we saw a major uptick in online sales and so it was an obvious reaction to that, but the conspiracy theorist inside me is bristling thinking that somehow this was all part of some CIA plot to have these places set up and ready to go.
Even during the pendency of some of these hearings, folks would bring out statistics from updated treatises suggesting warehouse propagation was oversaturated and that it didn't make sense to keep building them, but keep building they did. That's the part that really tips my tinfoil hat.
I see lawyers work on contingency every single day, for people who don't have a pot to piss in. It's also not generally out of the goodness of their heart, so I don't want to make it seem like they're philanthropists out here. If you have a case, odds are a lawyer will take it.
As far as defending a case, it's interesting. I watch insurance companies spend 10 times what a case is worth to settle for the sake of defending it. Lawyers go after insurance companies all the time because the insurance companies have deep pockets, and sometimes you get an easy settlement. This is definitely not some kind of defense of insurance companies either, they're the worst, but people will do their best to scam them wherever they can.
It ended up happening one other time, on Hulu I want to say, but I caught it earlier, because fool me once and all that. And I'm the kind of person who likes to go into things blind, I enjoy watching the story unfold, so it really gets my goat.
Believe it or not, never happens on the things I host locally.
My wife and I go to watch it, open Prime, put it on. Watch for a bit, things seem odd, but I don't question it. We're having a tough time following exactly, but I've heard good things about the show so I'm letting it breathe.
We get like 20m in and I say okay what the fuck. I pause, it's the season finale of season 1, prime just felt, when we start a new show, that it was best to start off on the most recent episode, despite not having seen the rest of them. Frustrating, to say the least.
I know it's probably client related, but to block a sub on Jerboa I click the post, then click the sub, then I can block. Meanwhile, I'm clicking on posts of monster dongs, going to the sub dedicated to monster dongs, just to try to see fewer dongs. And so yeah, my gripe is with my client, but I'd love a long press, block sub, bing bang boom.
Yeah, I rarely do the top button and rarely keep my tie tight. I've got it down to a science to where it looks right, but still loose, because I cannot stand stuff around my neck.
I like it, because as a kid I wanted to be Peter Pan, and I can feel the same way for different reasons as and adult with a son and daughter.
