day 35
Tumblr media
He gently pressed dried lips against the bandaged hand, barely peeping at the taller figure in front of him with a hint of smugness, internally eager to witness his reaction, he couldn't help but smile.
As the Craftsman slowly retreated, seconds that passed for entire lives buzzed inside the thief’s skull, almost too numb to process correctly the gesture and nevertheless lacking the time to act accordingly, his disastrous cognitive process managing to make him give a short bow.
“The pleasure would be no one’s but mine.” He expressed, polite, a hand resting on his chest solemnly.
Struggling with his own bubbling emotions, he offered his previously kissed hand to the mechanic who gladly took it with it’s own.
“Pretentious prig.” Kururu mocked, barely audible among the noisy ballroom that still echoed downstairs, the ballads high enough for them to take that chance there and now.
Devilishly cheesy, the redhead considered, quickly sparing a glance at the exit of the balcony and entrance to the site, making sure that no one was ready to intrude and trying to not give chances to the thought of what would the consequences be if someone stupid or nosy enough were to witness him and another man slow dancing on that secluded corner of the manor to pinch the back of his head.
He grabbed Dororo's waist, holding him as they both positioned themselves right, a very primal muscle memory playing an important part in such activity.
“Do try not to yell if i step on ya’”
“I trust you wholeheartedly” Zero laughed before saying, already starting to sway with the smaller man in arms.
They enjoyed a certain ability, an ability that was instilled many years ago, to one by decision and the other by obligation, by a custom rooted in the putrid scheme that had been drawn for decades in both of their worlds, which weren’t that far apart.
“This’a good one.” The craftsman noted.
“Which is?” The thief replied.
“The tune.”
“You mean the song?”
“Aye, used to repeat it a few times to get the signature right.”
“On the talking machine?”
“Before it flumped on my brother’s head, at least.”
“You've got a brother?”
“Now you tryna get me maggin’” Kururu grinned.
“Oh, I apologize-” He shrank very slightly on the grip. “I do tend to forget you're not much of a talker.”
“Cannae get too carried away making children’s shoes.”
A cackle, that peculiar monosyllabic giggle again, Dororo could never get used to it, and not in a bad way, he softened, a smirk of his own accompanying the blush of his covered face.
“I guess not…”
It was a bit chilly outside, the air whistled, passing through broken windows and worn boards, indistinguishable voices, far away music and drunken stupor characteristic of a Saturday night feeding the white noise.
Zero never had major trouble with keeping eye contact, Unlike Kururu, who needed to look away from other people or movement to concentrate on what they were saying, as well as feeling uncomfortable after at least 5 minutes of holding it. And yet, something made him want to continue staring at the other man’s gaze, it made him uneasy in the best of ways, that glassy tone that you would only find in a well-preserved corpse, it almost incited him to grab forks and take them out to study, to see if he would still stare so astonishingly to a Dororo with bleeding, empty eye sockets. He grinned further.
“Guess I owe you, though.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“I know anything I can know about you, Conveyancer.”
“Is that so?”
“Yessir.”
“Well you’ll have to find the heart to forgive because I highly doubt it.”
Kururu snorted before they both gave a spin on par with the music.
“Now I don't need to empty the bag, do I, Your Majesty?”
Dororo froze, erratically following the craftsman with the dance.
“...I-... Do not seem to follow, I have no idea of what you're getting at with such nonsense…!”
“Don’t play stupid on me, Gollumpus, gonna have to try harder than that.”
“I’m not…! What makes you believe that i am, of all people, a member of royalty?”
Kururu took the lead, clearly enjoying himself, he handled the ‘thief’ as he kept ranting.
“The break-teeth words? Fancy rags? Issues with that skank ya callin’ a mother?”
“M-My mother is a very respectable woman, thank you very much!”
“How ‘bout pops?”
“... I’ve got a feeling that you're the one that’s making me wanna ‘empty the bag’.”
“Dodgin’ bullets tonight, are we? Kuu-ku-ku-”
“C-Can be put that way.”
Dororo said, looking away from him, trying to keep himself from laughing. It was hard to put on the nonchalant facade, Zero always thought that he was at least somewhat good at keeping himself at ease in almost every situation, It is necessary to know how to stay calm to handle things better, however, Kururu seemed to know how to press his buttons, all the time, as if he could read every word and movement he could muster like an open, abandoned book. At times, it could be quite scary, but it was also flattering, because someone was taking the time and dedication to pay attention at what he was doing and why.
Such a shame that the glass-eyed ginger was like that with almost everyone.
“Okay, think I gotcha something.”
The blue haired man turned his attention back to the freckled one.
“Y’can ask three questions, then i can ask three, we don't need to get into much detail, and we can stop with the tilly-tally mind games. How'zat?”
Pondering, the noble slowly pulled away from Kururu, as if running equations on his mind, considering. Kururu fidgeted on his place, out of sight from Dororo to not give away his own facade.
“A tempting offer…” Mustered the blue-eyed man.
“Buuuuut?”
“... Very well then, it does sound amusing.”
He smiled, closing his eyes briefly, and the smaller one grinned widely.
And as the night passed, the two of them now knew each other a little more than they had that morning.
no beta we fucking die like viper

The public discourse about homosexuals since the AIDS crisis began has a startling resemblance (which Watney notes in passing) to the representation of female prostitutes in the nineteenth century “as contaminated vessels, conveyancing ‘female’ venereal diseases to ‘innocent’ men." Some more light is retroactively thrown on those representations by the association of gay men’s murderousness with what might be called the specific sexual heroics of their promiscuity. The accounts of Professor Narayan and Judge Wallach of gay men having sex twenty to thirty times a night, or once a minute, are much less descriptive of even the most promiscuous male sexuality than they are reminiscent of male fantasies about women’s multiple orgasms. The Victorian representation of prostitutes may explicitly criminalize what is merely a consequence of a more profound or original guilt. Promiscuity is the social correlative of a sexuality physiologically grounded in the menacing phenomenon of the nonclimactic climax. Prostitutes publicize (indeed, sell) the inherent aptitude of women for uninterrupted sex. Conversely, the similarities between representations of female prostitutes and male homosexuals should help us to specify the exact form of sexual behavior being targeted, in representations of AIDS, as the criminal, fatal, and irresistibly repeated act. This is of course anal sex (with the potential for multiple orgasms having spread from the insertee to the insertor, who, in any case, may always switch roles and be the insertee for ten or fifteen of those thirty nightly encounters), and we must of course take into account the widespread confusion in heterosexual and homosexual men between fantasies of anal and vaginal sex. The realities of syphilis in the nineteenth century and of AIDS today “legitimate” a fantasy of female sexuality as intrinsically diseased; and promiscuity in this fantasy, far from merely increasing the risk of infection, is the sign of infection. Women and gay men spread their legs with an unquenchable appetite for destruction. This is an image with extraordinary power; and if the good citizens of Arcadia, Florida, could chase from their midst an average, law-abiding family, it is, I would suggest, because in looking at three hemophiliac children they may have seen—that is, unconsciously represented—the infinitely more seductive and intolerable image of a grown man, legs high in the air, unable to refuse the suicidal ecstasy of being a woman.
— Is the Rectum A Grave? by Leo Bersani (1987)

Has anyone proposed the theory that Ghosts will end with the ghosts *encouraging* Alison and Mike to move on? Like, maybe another opportunity to sell the house comes along and Alison firmly isn't interested, but the ghosts have seen the efforts they've made to make money from the house, the stress of it, and have maybe just learnt that Alison is expecting a baby, so they tell her it's time to move on. Button House is a temporary plane for them all, a limbo, and with Alison's help they've all grown and are able to encourage her to leave and wish her well. They've also learnt to appreciate each other more, in a weird way - Maddox highlighted that in series 4.
Alison would visit, of course, and leave the new owners some very specific requests that are legally wrapped up in the conveyancing papers.

house update: the house we wanted had been on the market for 6 ENTIRE MONTHS and someone else literally submitted an offer at the same time as us that was higher so we didn't get it. all the competitiveness of making offers, going around to lots of open homes with 40 other people there, the houses being grossly overpriced for what they were, trying to get appointments as fast as possible, leaving work for these appointments and paying conveyancer fees for houses we missed out on was getting to me. i'm very intuitive and my gut was telling me that it wasn't the right way to go. i started looking in a different direction. there was a singular flat block of land available in a brand new subdivision, in an area that was our absolute dream but we could never afford to buy a nice established house in. we've bought a block of land by the beach and we're building a house on it. It will be done within a year

Isn’t she in law school? How is she going to get a job? Cause law firms are pretty strict
She is training to be a solicitor not a barrister as far as I know, which is not as strict in terms of reputation as being a barrister. Plus, it depends what kind of law you want to go into. If you want to be in conveyancing or just say a lawyer in a large bank or something like that…no one is going to know or care that you have a social media presence unless you’re having your boobs out on page 3. They might care if you’re doing high profile cases or working at a top firm but also, her presence is quite innocuous, it might even be an advantage as who you can introduce to the firm can be a factor in the hiring process. For example if she wants to go into entertainment law, her mixing in fashion/sporting circles might be good for a firm.
Also, pretty sure she is from a family of lawyers, very unlikely she will not be able to find a job.
But I do think she doesn’t want to make law her career, and that her working with storm and building her social media presence is so that she can be a full time influencer and not have to actually work as a solicitor.

Bristol Flats For Sale
Tumblr media
Bristol For many first-time buyers, flats and apartments offer an exciting and affordable way to get on the property ladder in desirable Bristol and city locations. With no garden to maintain and amenities on your doorstep, flats accommodate busy lifestyles comfortably. However, selecting the ideal property requires careful consideration. The first step is defining your priorities - are schools, transport links or nightlife most essential? Floor number preferences also factor in for lifestyle and price. Establishing clear search criteria focused on non-negotiables streamlines your journey immensely. With parameters set, explore promising areas meeting your needs. Compare statistics such as average flat prices, local amenities and quality-of-life ratings to establish pragmatic expectations. Visit proposed neighborhoods to absorb atmosphere beyond numbers. Location ultimately boils down to transport access versus outdoor space value for your routine. Inner zones near stations provide swift commutes but limited private outlooks. Outer areas balance larger room sizes and direct transport costs. Bristol Property type also affects costs and responsibilities long-term. New-build flats offer designer finishes in amenity-rich locations at premium prices. Pre-loved converted houses provide historic charm and investment potential closer to the average first-time buyer budget. Evaluate individual properties shrewdly. Factor room configurations and storage solutions, transport links, maintenance and service charges into affordability alongside sale price. Quality fixtures and modernized bathrooms elevate livability significantly. Methodical research into locations, development amenities and showcase flats educates informed choices. Viewings require scrutiny beyond curb appeal to long-term suitability. Experienced conveyancers and mortgage advisors smooth the purchase process. With patience and perseverance, your ideal new home awaits discovery.

David Wakeling, head of London-based law firm Allen & Overy's markets innovation group, first came across law-focused generative AI tool Harvey in September 2022. He approached OpenAI, the system’s developer, to run a small experiment. A handful of his firm’s lawyers would use the system to answer simple questions about the law, draft documents, and take first passes at messages to clients. 
The trial started small, Wakeling says, but soon ballooned. Around 3,500 workers across the company’s 43 offices ended up using the tool, asking it around 40,000 queries in total. The law firm has now entered into a partnership to use the AI tool more widely across the company, though Wakeling declined to say how much the agreement was worth. According to Harvey, one in four at Allen & Overy’s team of lawyers now uses the AI platform every day, with 80 percent using it once a month or more. Other large law firms are starting to adopt the platform too, the company says.
The rise of AI and its potential to disrupt the legal industry has been forecast multiple times before. But the rise of the latest wave of generative AI tools, with ChatGPT at its forefront, has those within the industry more convinced than ever. 
“I think it is the beginning of a paradigm shift,” says Wakeling. “I think this technology is very suitable for the legal industry.”
Generative AI is having a cultural and commercial moment, being touted as the future of search, sparking legal disputes over copyright, and causing panic in schools and universities. 
The technology, which uses large datasets to learn to generate pictures or text that appear natural, could be a good fit for the legal industry, which relies heavily on standardized documents and precedents.
���Legal applications such as contract, conveyancing, or license generation are actually a relatively safe area in which to employ ChatGPT and its cousins,” says Lilian Edwards, professor of law, innovation, and society at Newcastle University. “Automated legal document generation has been a growth area for decades, even in rule-based tech days, because law firms can draw on large amounts of highly standardized templates and precedent banks to scaffold document generation, making the results far more predictable than with most free text outputs.” 
But the problems with current generations of generative AI have already started to show. Most significantly, their tendency to confidently make things up—or “hallucinate.” That is problematic enough in search, but in the law, the difference between success and failure can be serious, and costly.
Over email, Gabriel Pereyra, Harvey’s founder and CEO, says that the AI has a number of systems in place to prevent and detect hallucinations. “Our systems are finetuned for legal use cases on massive legal datasets which greatly reduces hallucinations compared to existing systems,” he says.
Even so, Harvey has gotten things wrong, says Wakeling—which is why Allen & Overy has a careful risk management program around the technology. 
“We’ve got to provide the highest level of professional services,” Wakeling says. “We can’t have hallucinations contaminating legal advice.” Users who log in to Allen & Overy’s Harvey portal are confronted by a list of rules for using the tool. The most important, to Wakeling’s mind? “You must validate everything coming out of the system. You have to check everything.”
Wakeling has been particularly impressed with Harvey’s prowess at translation. It’s strong at mainstream law, but struggles on specific niches, where it’s more prone to hallucination. “We know the limits, and people have been extremely well informed on the risk of hallucination,” he says. “Within the firm, we’ve gone to great lengths with a big training program.”
Other lawyers who spoke to WIRED were cautiously optimistic about the use of AI in their practice. 
“It is certainly very interesting and definitely indicative of some of the fantastic innovation that is taking place within the legal industry,” says Sian Ashton, client transformation partner at law firm TLT. “However, this is definitely a tool in its infancy and I wonder if it is really doing much more than provide precedent documents which are already available in the business or from subscription services.”
AI is likely to remain used for entry-level work, says Daniel Sereduick, a data protection lawyer based in Paris, France. “Legal document drafting can be a very labor-intensive task that AI seems to be able to grasp quite well. Contracts, policies, and other legal documents tend to be normative, so AI's capabilities in gathering and synthesizing information can do a lot of heavy lifting.”
But, as Allen & Overy has found, the output from an AI platform is going to need careful review, he says. “Part of practicing law is about understanding your client’s particular circumstances, so the output will rarely be optimal.” 
Sereduick says that while the outputs from legal AI will need careful monitoring, the inputs could be equally challenging to manage. “Data submitted into an AI may become part of the data model and/or training data, and this would very likely violate the confidentiality obligations to clients and individuals’ data protection and privacy rights,” he says. 
This is particularly an issue in Europe, where the use of this kind of AI might breach the principles of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which governs how much data about individuals can be collected and processed by companies. 
“Can you lawfully use a piece of software built on that foundation [of mass data scraping]? In my opinion, this is an open question,” says data protection expert Robert Bateman. 
Law firms would likely need a firm legal basis under the GDPR to feed any personal data about clients they control into a generative AI tool like Harvey, and contracts in place covering the processing of that data by third parties operating the AI tools, Bateman says.
Wakeling says that Allen & Overy is not using personal data for its deployment of Harvey, and wouldn’t do so unless it could be convinced that any data would be ring-fenced and protected from any other use. Deciding on when that requirement was met would be a case for the company’s information security department. “We are being extremely careful about client data,” Wakeling says. “At the moment we’re using it as a non-personal data, non-client data system to save time on research or drafting, or preparing a plan for slides—that kind of stuff.”
International law is already toughening up when it comes to feeding generative AI tools with personal data. Across Europe, the EU’s AI Act is looking to more stringently regulate the use of artificial intelligence. In early February, Italy’s Data Protection Agency stepped in to prevent generative AI chatbot Replika from using the personal data of its users. 
But Wakeling believes that Allen & Overy can make use of AI while keeping client data safe and secure—all the while improving the way the company works. “It’s going to make some real material difference to productivity and efficiency,” he says. Small tasks that would otherwise take valuable minutes out of a lawyer’s day can now be outsourced to AI. “If you aggregate that over the 3,500 lawyers who have got access to it now, that’s a lot,” he says. “Even if it’s not complete disruption, it’s impressive.”

A Buyer’s Guide to Property in South Perth: Tips for Success
Situated just across the Swan River from Perth's central business district, South Perth offers a blend of urban convenience and laid-back suburbia. Known for its stunning views of the city skyline, lush parks, and a myriad of dining and recreational options, it has become a sought-after location for both first-time homebuyers and seasoned investors alike. If you’re considering the vibrant property market in South Perth, this guide offers essential tips to help you navigate the buying process successfully.
Understand the Local Market Dynamics
Before diving into your property search, it’s crucial to familiarize yourself with the property in south perth real estate market. Over the past few years, property values in South Perth have shown steady growth, driven by its desirable location, strong community feel, and excellent amenities.
Market Trends
Keep an eye on the latest market trends. Conduct research on recent sales in the area, median property prices, and rental yields. Websites that aggregate real estate data can provide insights into how the market is performing. This information will help you set a realistic budget and understand what type of properties are available in your price range.
Future Developments
The local government and private developers often have plans for future projects, such as new amenities, transport links, and infrastructure improvements. Being aware of such developments can influence your buying decision, as they can enhance property in south perth values in the future.
Tumblr media
Define Your Needs and Budget
Before you start viewing properties, take some time to outline your needs and budget. Consider factors such as:
Property Type: Do you prefer an apartment, townhouse, or standalone house?
Size and Layout: How many bedrooms and bathrooms do you need?
Lifestyle Preferences: Are you seeking easy access to parks, schools, or public transport?
Once you’ve identified your needs, set a clear budget that takes into account not only the purchase price but also additional costs like stamp duty, inspection fees, and ongoing maintenance.
Engage Local Experts
Working with professionals who understand the property in south perth can be a game-changer. From real estate agents to buyers’ agents, having local expertise on your side can provide valuable insights and streamline the buying process.
Real Estate Agents
Choose an agent knowledgeable about property in south perth and its surrounding areas. A good agent will understand local market trends, property values, and can help you find listings that meet your criteria.
Buyers’ Agents
Consider hiring a buyers’ agent if you want a more hands-on approach to finding a property. Unlike selling agents, buyers' agents work solely for the buyer, helping you navigate negotiations, conduct market research, and even source off-market listings.
Legal and Financial Advisors
Engaging a solicitor or conveyancer will help ensure that all legal aspects of the purchase are handled smoothly. A mortgage broker can assist you in finding the best loan products that suit your financial situation.
Attend Open Homes and Inspections
Once you’ve narrowed down your options, attend open homes and private inspections. Observing properties in person allows you to assess the quality, layout, and overall vibe of the neighborhood.
What to Look For
When inspecting a property, consider:
Condition of the Property: Look for any signs of wear and tear, structural issues, or necessary repairs.
Natural Light and Ventilation: Pay attention to how well the space is lit and ventilated.
Noise Levels: Make note of noise levels from nearby roads or construction sites.
Storage Space: Evaluate closets, garages, and overall storage solutions.
Don't hesitate to ask the property in south perth questions—about the history of the property, any issues, or neighborhood amenities.
5. Conduct Due Diligence
Before making an offer, conduct thorough due diligence. This includes:
Property Valuation
Having a professional property valuation can help you ensure that you’re not overpaying for a property.
Building and Pest Inspections
Hiring a qualified inspector to assess the property for structural integrity and pest infestations is crucial. This step can save you from unexpected repair costs down the line.
Review Title Deeds and Strata Reports
If purchasing a property in south perth within a strata scheme, understanding the strata laws, building insurance, and rules will help you gauge the overall community living experience.
Negotiate and Make Your Offer
Once you’ve found a property you like, it’s time to make an offer. Your real estate agent can often guide you on the best strategy, whether it's to offer below asking price or to take a more competitive approach.
Understand the Seller’s Situation
If you know the seller's circumstances (e.g., are they looking for a quick sale?), crafting your offer with their situation in mind can be beneficial.
Conditional Offers
Consider implementing conditional offers based on inspection outcomes or obtaining financing, which can safeguard your interests.
Be Ready to Act Quickly
The property in south perth market can be competitive, with desirable properties often selling quickly. If you find a home that meets your criteria, be prepared to act fast. Have your finances in order and be ready to submit an offer as soon as you identify a property you like.
Navigating the property in south perth can be an exciting yet daunting experience. By understanding the local market dynamics, defining your needs, engaging experts, and conducting thorough inspections, you'll position yourself for success. Whether you’re looking for your dream home or a lucrative investment, following these tips will help you make informed decisions in a vibrant and evolving suburb.

Lost Your House Deeds? Here’s What to Do Next
Tumblr media
Losing your house deeds can feel overwhelming, especially since they represent the legal ownership of your property. However, losing them is not the end of the world. With the right steps, you can resolve the issue and ensure that your property ownership is still secure. Whether you’ve misplaced your deeds or they’ve been destroyed, here’s a guide on what to do next.
1. Understand the Importance of House Deeds
House deeds are essential documents that prove your legal ownership of a property. They usually consist of several documents, including title deeds, conveyancing documents, and sometimes a mortgage deed. The house deeds also contain critical information about any rights, covenants, or conditions affecting the property.
While physical house deeds were historically the main proof of ownership, today, many properties are registered digitally with the Land Registry. Therefore, if you lose your deeds, it's possible that the Land Registry already holds a record of your ownership. Still, it's important to take the necessary steps to rectify the situation.
2. Check if Your Property Is Registered with the Land Registry
The first step you should take after losing your house deeds is to check whether your property is registered with the Land Registry. If your property is registered, the digital records maintained by the Land Registry serve as the official proof of ownership. These records include important details such as the property boundaries, any restrictions, and the name of the legal owner.
To verify if your property is registered, you can conduct a Land Registry search. This will provide you with the Title Register, which includes the property’s ownership details, as well as the Title Plan, which outlines the boundaries of your property. If your property is already registered, losing the house deeds will not affect your ownership status.
3. Replacing Lost Deeds for Unregistered Properties
If your property is unregistered and you’ve lost the house deeds, the process becomes a bit more complicated. In this case, you’ll need to take additional steps to establish proof of ownership. Here’s what to do:
a. Contact Your Solicitor or Mortgage Lender
If you have previously used a solicitor or conveyancer when purchasing the property, they may have retained copies of the house deeds. Similarly, if you have a mortgage on the property, your lender might still hold the original deeds as security. Contact them to see if they can provide a copy.
b. Gather Other Documentation
In the absence of your house deeds, you will need to provide as much supporting documentation as possible. This could include conveyancing documents, old mortgage statements, or any letters from your solicitor. The goal is to demonstrate your continuous ownership of the property.
c. Apply for First Registration
If your property is unregistered and you cannot recover the house deeds, you may need to apply for first registration with the Land Registry. This process involves submitting evidence of ownership to the Land Registry, which will assess the documents and decide whether to register your property. While this process can be time-consuming, it provides permanent proof of ownership going forward.
4. Reconstructing Your Title
In cases where the house deeds have been completely lost and no copies are available, the Land Registry may allow you to reconstruct the title. This process typically requires a statutory declaration, which is a legally binding statement of ownership made by you or others who can verify your ownership.
A statutory declaration should include:
Your personal details and relationship to the property
How long you’ve owned the property
Details of how and when the house deeds were lost
Any other relevant documents you can provide to support your claim
Once the statutory declaration is submitted, the Land Registry will review it, and if satisfied, they will reconstruct the title and register your property in your name.
5. What Happens If There’s a Dispute?
If you lose your house deeds and someone disputes your ownership, the matter can become more complicated. In such cases, the Land Registry may not automatically approve the registration or reconstruction of your title. Instead, the case may need to go through legal proceedings to establish rightful ownership.
It’s crucial to seek legal advice in this situation. A property solicitor can guide you through the legal process and help you protect your rights. They may also be able to mediate with any opposing parties and work towards a resolution.
6. Preventing Future Issues with House Deeds
Once you’ve resolved the issue of your lost house deeds, it’s important to take steps to prevent future issues. Here are a few key tips:
a. Register Your Property with the Land Registry
If your property is not already registered, consider applying for first registration to ensure that your ownership is digitally recorded. This provides an extra layer of protection in case you lose your deeds again.
b. Store Digital and Physical Copies
Even if your property is registered, it’s wise to keep a copy of your house deeds in a safe and secure location. Consider storing both digital and physical copies of the deeds in separate locations, such as a safe deposit box or a secure cloud storage service.
c. Keep Contact Information for Solicitors and Lenders
If your solicitor or mortgage lender holds the original house deeds, make sure you have their contact information and any necessary account or reference numbers to retrieve them if needed.
