i am a simon 'bad drunk' riley truther. he never gets Truly smashed bc he hates the loss of control being fully drunk brings up

but he does drink enough that it has you on edge. ruins the vibe if anyone else is there, brings the mood down immediately. you start shuffling anxiously if you're in public or at a party, a tense feeling in your stomach because he will start a fight and you won't be able to stop him

he always manhandles you when he's sober, but you get the feeling it's just because he can. shifts you about where he wants you. when he's drunk, his thumbs always dig into you just a little bit too much, wants you blinking up at him with wet eyes. he wants you just on the edge of feeling ashamed and betrayed by him and his horrible behaviour before he yanks you back into him again. just because he can

hello! longtime follower and current 1L - am starting the rounds of the law firms and there's always the "so what practice area are you interested in?" bit. i was curious what that is for you + what you do/don't like about it? iirc, you mentioned something abt being in-house, healthcare related, regulatory side of things? i'm interested in regulatory stuff but not sure if that takes the shape of litigation or an explicitly regulatory-focused practice. found your blog back in the star wars days, then got into silmarillion and the silt verses after seeing your posts abt it haha - hope you're doing well and staying warm!

Congrats! 1L summer is a fun, anxiety-ridden time that mostly involves telling people over and over, who you are and what you're interested in---which can be tricky if you're not sure what you're interested in.

Personally, I went in knowing that I liked healthcare (the field I worked in prior to law school) and that wanted to stay healthcare-adjacent.....but not much else.

I learned I was not destined for litigation pretty much the first time my Legal Writing professor handed back our appellate briefs. (Mine did not have the grade I wanted at the top.) This was compounded by our final project, where we presented in front of real live attorneys and I was a nervous, sweaty wreck. After that, I decided that becoming Atticus Finch was not in my future.

But there are still lots of other kinds of law to practice! I live in the healthcare regulatory space---and I work for a pretty under-resourced company, which means I have lots of contact with other areas like R&D, clinical research, data privacy, marketing and adtech, direct patient care, healthcare compliance, and negotiating between various international laws. Not to mention my scope is always expanding, which is...challenging, but I'm also the kind of person who enjoys spending a weekend reading about Brazilian law.

(One of my guiding stars through the whole law school/job search process was "I don't want to be bored." I am never, ever bored.)

And this wasn't even my first stop! When I was in law school, I spent my semesters interning/clerking at firms, consulting boutiques and government agencies; policy-focused clinics and hospitals and giant corporate behemoths. I've said before that observing all these different settings was valuable, that it gave me a better understanding of myself, how I work, and the kind of work I was looking for. While I won't ever claim that every experience I had was amazing (it was not) it did give me the opportunity to explore, in a way that most adult professionals simply can't.

I mean---look. If you're committed to the brass ring of OCR and a high-profile law firm, then you might have to make this decision now. (Or at least come up with a good answer for interviewers...) But I highly encourage you and everyone choosing that path to keep the other doors open, just a crack. There are interesting things that sneak through when you aren't looking.

if you’re talking to people on a dating app and want to meet a long term partner from experience my honest advice is to send them thee ugliest non-touched up pictures of yourself you have and also tell them all the weird shit you’re doing. if they match your freak it will work out.

hey so it’s 1am and I’m drunk but man wouldn’t it be great if tianshan’s next kiss is super cliche and has a really intense/obvious build-up into the fact that he tian is going to kiss him again and guan shan is reluctant and nervous but he closes his eyes anyway because he tian is so close and he’s looking at him like that but then nothing happens and after a few seconds guan shan opens his eyes and sees he tian looking at him with an awful, self-satisfied smirk and guan shan wants to be so fucking upset with his goddamn ego but he wants this kiss more than he wants his anger so he looks around even though it’s only them in the room because he has to be sure that no one is watching when he wraps his hand around he tian’s nape just like the first time and pulls him down to his height just like the first time but this time guan shan takes what he really wants and he feels more confident because lately he’s been feeling more confident in them but he tian is a smug little shit so he’s smiling against him and not really reciprocating but when guan shan actually gets upset and tries to pull away he tian crowds him in and kisses him back too eagerly and guan shan is red all the way down to his neck and he has a hand in he tian’s hair and maybe it all lasts a second or maybe it lasts a year but—

man, wouldn’t that be so great :)

Inspired by my experience last night: whumpee who can't sleep.

No matter what they try, they just can't get comfortable, tossing and turning for hours and hours, wracked with boredom but too exhausted to do anything but keep trying to sleep. They long to open their eyes after another failed attempt and see light coming in through the windows, because it means they don't have to keep trying fruitlessly, but it seems like it just never comes.

And of course the next day they're just exhausted

i'm so glad my body can finally tolerate caffeine to the point of me being able to drink energy drinks, for several reasons. for one thing i have spent the past decade or so giving off the energy of a guy who drinks energy drinks with 'healthy additives' in them and i am finally in alignment with that. also it feels great to be caffeinated in a way that is good and not bad. previously caffeine made me incredibly irritable and anxious and incapable of focusing or holding still. now it does better things. so i am riding the caffeine train until it violently derails

the level of intimacy and trust just innate in buck and eddie's relationship for eddie to drop chris off with buck 2 days after he almost died in a tsunami is liek actually sick. actually. putting a stern hand on your boy bestie's should and telling him i trust you with the most precious thing in my life. the eroticism is off the wall i'm so sorry
