Elderly female Judges can be very firm, but you can ‘toast’ them too! 😊🤗😂 Yesterday, I appeared before a Judge of the FCT High Court in one of the divisions in the outskirts. Because of the distance to town, you hardly enjoy going there. 🥹 Case was called and I represent the defendant. The Applicant was absent from court for a record second time. I knew the Judge, as a personal policy, likes giving latitude to parties so she could have asked me whether the Applicant was served hearing notice against yesterday. Of course, it’s not my duty as Respondent, I’m however familiar with the Judge enough to know her leanings. So, my mission was simple. Toast her! 😁After she took my appearance, I said: “The Applicant and his counsel are absent for a second time today. No reason is given for their absence. As much as I enjoy coming to this court to look at my lord’s beautiful face, this case is not being diligently prosecuted. I want case struck out” 😊😁 At the last line, my lord dropped her pen, laughed and blushed thoroughly 😂😂😂 Mission accomplished. Ordered as prayed. 😁#Litgeng #ThingsTheyDontTeachInLawSchool

What it’s like to receive a job offer directly from Satya Nadella. @kelseyhightower, former Google Distinguished Engineer, on the Microsoft offer that revealed a pay tier he didn't know existed: “I got this email from Satya, the CEO of Microsoft. He wrote this nice email: 'Kelsey, heard you had a good experience with the team' - remember I did the interview at the Microsoft headquarters - “heard really good things from the team, just wanted to let you know, you're going to be respected here. We're going to support you as a team.” I'm like, damn, support as a team? Coming from the CEO? So, number one, what an honor. This is the CEO of Microsoft. He has so many more important things to be doing than to be emailing me about a role. I opened the PDF - not very often in your career does a zero get added to the equation. And so you're looking at this like, I didn't even know that they do that. We know that it happens. But the person that graduated from high school in 1999, that chose the A Certification didn't know that was available. Even while I was at Google having all the success. Google paid me pretty well too, but I didn't know you can add another zero still. And I'm like, wow. I showed my wife and she was the one that said you should just go interview, like put your ego to the side and let's go see what's out there, so shout out to my wife. And so I get the PDF, and I'm like, okay, this number is perfect. Honestly, I don't know what to say, but let’s just find out, is this really the only number? So I remember giving a counter: you know what, I think it should be this. The funny thing is, Microsoft countered back higher, like we're not playing around. I'm like, oh, whoa. Now I understand that I don't understand this part of the game.”

I don’t even acknowledge my friends boyfriends as humans so let’s start there.

I’m an IVF Doctor. Business Is Booming Because Ob-Gyns Aren’t Doing Their Jobs. Just last Monday, a woman sat across from me in my office and asked a question I have come to dread. Why had no one told her? She is 33, a therapist, married three years, and she has been to her gynecologist every year since high school. She was also on the brink of perimenopause. She had assumed that when she was ready, her body would be too. No one in two decades of annual visits had ever explained that the most consequential decisions about her capacity to bear children were being made by her ovaries on a calendar she could not see, while her doctor took her blood pressure and refilled her birth control. She is the patient I see several times a month. She is the most preventable tragedy in American medicine. thefp.com/p/im-an-ivf-doctor…

Start a problematic discourse.

when a man who was in my story likes 2 days ago hard launches a girlfriend today……. I slip a little deeper into psychosis daily

you can tell how much internal shame someone has by how judgmental they are.

Most of Mindy Kaling's early career was full of punchlines and witty comebacks about how she would never lose weight because she was content with her curves and disinterested in conforming to the unfair beauty standards. Now she says she achieved her drastic weight loss by "food moderation," hiking, and strength training. The fat celebs and influencers only hid behind the battle cry of body positivity in the past because they couldn't conform to the beauty standards. But now that Ozempic is here, they can and so they do. Good for her, she looks great. But let's not pretend this is due to hiking.

Every other May I have to see some Asian kid with a full ride to Brown cry and moan cuz he didn’t get into Harvard and now he has to make it black peoples problem. You guys are raising assholes and leaving us to deal with them.
