happy 6 months to me literally being someone’s lawyer. that’s still soooo insane to me. your tumblr mutual shitposting about books is also giving legal advice and going to court

really so fulfilling to service reactive dogs. checked in a patient that was nonstop barking and lunging while i calmly shout-asked for history from the clearly exhausted owner. she says the e.r. vet wouldn't touch him and made her feel horrible, like he's a bad dog and she's a bad owner (not making a read on that vet, she was just feeling judged), and i just really really love being able to offer reassurance now that I'm at a place where reactive dogs don't scare me. i KNOW this dude is your baby at home ma'am, i will treat him as such. love seeing owners stop being embarrassed and start feeling relief.

Curious about your Narumitsu Swap AU, what pushed Wright to be a prosecutor instead of defense? By the way, does Edgeworth get disbarred in place of Wright?

im so glad you sent this twice by accident bc ill answer fr in the morning (im sleepy) but the joke answer is: the same thing that motivates everyone to become a prosecutor. maternity leave

the joys (and downfalls) of a therapist who understands fandom life

me: idk i’ve just been feeling kinda shit so i’ve been reading the ‘content warnings needed’ fanfiction.

therapist: you have to stop. you’re literally just retraumatizing yourself all over again.

me: i mean there’s not really a lot of other fics to read in the fand-

therapist, pulling up his ao3 account: there’s currently 11,630 works tagged with fluff in the 9-1-1 fandom. lies. homework for this session is to read more fluff and less angst.

You've learned the secret of living

September 12, 1988 Magic Monday

Ahhhh. The easy lift of freedom provided only by sweet, pure, jury trial.

Bill B. And I talked about it here—about how it is a thrill next to sex in living. A timeless event. 

He said “I like to live on the edge of the world. I’ll be disappointed if I never get to go into space—what could be more edge of the world? And, if I go there and smoke some bad grass or whatever, I don’t care. I got to do it." And I said “Space? You have learned the secret of living! To Do. Even if to die is a part of the game.”

The William S. Jury is out. So, we shall see. I think he is innocent of receiving stolen property and of stealing a car and its parts. What the jury does is their affair. William S said “You did a good job”. John Goulart, the prosecutor, said “You did a great job of advocating. You were really good. Must be your experience. “ That made me feel so high. I said, while the trial judge was listening, “I like being in jury trial almost more than anything else. Sounds strange, doesn't it?”

I told Bill B. I’ve found home in this work. I love the people I work with. He said “That’s great”.

Notes 9/23/2024

In 1988, I was a deputy public defender in Modesto California. Bill B. Was a fellow deputy public defender. William S. Was a client that I represented in a jury trial. John Goulart was the Deputy District Attorney in the trial.

Bill B likened jury trial to living on the edge of the world. That’s where I like to live, too. And I can get there through things like jury trial and open water (ocean) swimming. Where I could die. But it’s worth the risk to touch the world’s edge and to return to tell the story.

A post script to above entry

9/12/1988

"Well, I lost the trial and I swear it knocked the living breath outta me like a board to the stomach. I hit a nasty plain. But, I endured and jammed into trial II." (I began another jury trial at the conclusion of the William S. trial).

so about 2 weeks ago I helped rescue this teeny little cat (5lbs!!!!), and wouldn't you know it--she has a goddamn hole in the roof of her mouth. Thankfully there is a surgical procedure to fix this (which she had on Monday) but unfortunately: it was $680 dollars.

If you would like to kick a few dollars Ms Petra's way, I would be deeply, deeply grateful. I know I had a post earlier this year asking for cat money, and many of you were so kind and generous. It's okay if you don't have anything to give. Reblogs are great too!

Like on my other post, I'm more than happy to offer my silly little computer skills in exchange for donations, just dm me with a screenshot and we can work it out.

thanks for reading. i love u all my hand computer friends
