I’d like to point out that if someone accidentally loses a tooth as a result of shower sex, that’s probably criminal in Alberta. But not someone losing a tooth from being punched in the face as part of a boxing match.
I don’t know about you, but that does feel a bit weird.

I just want to talk about how "The Devil Judge" is one of the best kdrama's ever, the plot? fire! The acting? Top notch! The characters are relatable. The writing is so beautiful I could actually cry, Strong female characters (i support their wrongs and their rights) And yes the sexual tension between the two male leads - its not defined but trust me, friends don't look at friends that way.
It's essentially the Korean version of Hannibal minus the Serial killers and cannibalism.

Modern au FengQing
Feng Xin as Police Officer
Mu Qing as Detective
Them always throwing offensive remarks at each other, but being the first to rescue the other.
This idea was stuck in my head so I head to make it into a moodboard, of course.
I could see them being the more aggressive version of Sherlock and John.

(Disclaimer: I’m not trying to discourage anyone from pursuing law. Just trying to prepare anyone considering it)
Law School is exhausting and very difficult. Everyday the reading stacks up and it’s so easy to fall behind. First, make absolutely sure law is right for you. Talk to attorneys, try to shadow someone, work in law somehow, you can also ask current students (including me)!
That said, when you find your niche in law, things tend to work out for you!

Law students expect infinitely more coherence from the law than the law is able to provide.
Nothing about criminal law makes sense. Teaching criminal law is an exercise in pretending it makes sense just long enough for students to be able to write an exam about it.
My internal monologue during course preparation: “Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha, I hope my students don’t ask about this.”
It’s not that I don’t know the topic well enough to answer. It’s that I have a table of Supreme Court decisions where they give five different answers to the question.
And yes, of course, I can just tell them it doesn’t make sense. I can remind them that the system exists to reproduce racial capitalism, not to make sense. But that’s deeply dissatisfying to most of them. They want certainty, otherwise they feel like they’re not on track to becoming a competent lawyer.

It's a hanging matter this time.”
“Sir Eustace is dead, then?”
“Yes; his head was knocked in with his own poker.”
Ouch. I guess the murder was not planned, then, considering the choice of weapon.
I researched until when hangings took place in the UK. The last execution by the gallows (and also in general) was in 1964. Which is much later than I would have thought. Prior to reading Sherlock Holmes, if you'd have asked me until when people were hanged I would have said something like the 17th or 18th century.
From this guardian article:
As they were led to the gallows there was little fuss. No public outcry, no headlines indicated that the executions of Gwynne Evans and Peter Allen would be remembered as anything other than run-of-the-mill.
Evans, 24, and Allen, 21, were unlucky with their timing. Two months after they were executed Labour came to power, bringing a Commons vote to suspend capital punishment for five years in the 1965 Murder Act, a move made permanent in 1969.
At the time of their convictions, the 1957 Homicide Act had already removed the automatic death penalty for all murders, though exceptions included any murder committed for theft.
The criminologist Steve Fielding, author of more than 20 books on British hangings, believes the lack of publicity was due to the fact that, by sensationalist standards, the Evans and Allen murder was "quite low key".
The two jobless Preston men travelled to the Cumbria home of John "Jack" West, a 53-year-old laundry van driver known to Evans, in a stolen car with Allen's wife and two children, on 7 April 1964. The two planned to rob the bachelor, but then killed him.
In the Netherlands the last execution by hanging happenened in 1860, in Maastricht, so more that 100 years earlier. (The only executions after that took place in the aftermath of the Second World War and were committed by gun) That is a wild difference.
I also found this interesting article on the Museum of London website:
During the early 19th century, Britain removed the death penalty for a wide range of crimes, including pickpocketing, forgery and rape. By 1861, the number of capital crimes had been reduced to five, including murder, treason, espionage, arson in royal dockyards and piracy with violence. Other reforms included the banning of public executions in 1868, and the abolition of beheading and quartering in 1870. The age at which a person could be executed was also raised first to 16 and then 18 in 1933. Prior to World War II, an attempt was made in Britain to abolish the death penalty, but the outbreak of war, defeat in the Lords and fears about public reaction caused the government to shelve the proposal. In 1957, public doubts about high profile cases such as Timothy Evans and Derek Bentley eventually led to the 1957 Homicide Act that reduced the categories of murder that could be punishable by death. In 1965, the death penalty for murder in Britain was suspended for five years and in 1969 this was made permanent. However, it was not until 1998 that the death penalty in Britain was finally abolished for all crimes.

I hope Mr. Trump gets the constitutional rights that he and many right wing people want to deny people they label criminals. I hope Mr. Trump will have effective assistance of counsel, that he'll have a fair trial in front of an impartial jury, and that he will be presumed to be innocent unless he is proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. I hope that Mr. Trump will be convicted, but not without due process of law and all that it entails. And I hope every single person in the United States who is accused of a crime, regardless of its severity, will also maintain these rights.
