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.

so... if i'm not mistaken... gmmtv wrote, filmed, edited, marketed, AND PREMIERED a whole ass show without getting international airing rights?? how the hell does that even happen?? did they simply not read their contract?? did they intentionally ignore it??? did they get a verbal go-ahead and then just forgot to put it in writing? it's a bad look for gmmtv of course but also kind of hilarious to think of how they could have fucked up this badly when they literally had A YEAR to sort it all out

#like. they went through the effort to resurrect taynew but they couldn't be bothered to have a lawyer double check the copyright law #RIP lmaooo #cherry magic thailand #cherry magic 30 #lgbt drama #thai drama #cherry magic th #theo.txt #100

japan & LGBTQ rights

in june of this year, japan passed a bill to “promote understanding of the LGBTQ” according to thejapantimes.com. it was highly controversial because there was no consequences for discriminating those apart of the LGBTQ and predict it will do nothing for those facing mistreatment for just being themselves. as to as someone who lives in japan, there is is little to nothing about it the LGBTQ and is honestly ignored, but i hope japan will establish more rights for the LGBTQ+ community so they stop facing harsh discrimination. no one deserves to live in a world where they are judged and feel like they cannot be themselves.

If I ever become a parent, I think I'd probably hold off on those gender reveal parties until the kid tells me what they are, and like... nothing would change afterwards obviously, but it's an excuse to eat a cake and give them gifts, plus it's a nice memory that I wouldn't have had if the reveal was held before they even had a chance to speak for themself.

#trans #transgender #ftm #mtf #nonbinary #lgbt #lgbtq #i just like eating cake and giving gifts #if it turns out they're a cis kid then cool! if not? then they'll be just as loved y'know?#sometimes it feels like parents truly project so much onto their kids that it becomes stiffling..#...like you know the stereotype where parents force their kids into certain classes so they can be a lawyer or something?#like i see just how much that type of projection ends up damaging your relationship with your kid AND the kid's relationship with THEMSELF #if you can live up to that expectation then it's one thing. but what if you can't? tf do you do then???#depending on the parent that can be a very scary thing to come to grips with. i don't want to be like that in any way #for a lot of trans kids this is how it feels - you don't live up to your parents' expectations #i think it's safe to say that 99% of parents EXPECT and even DEMAND for a cis kid #we need to break that cycle i think. not JUST for trans kids but also for literally every other 'type' of kid #again like. when you sign up for a kid you sign up for ANY type of kid #you CANNOT predict what your kid will be. you can't say if they'll be disabled/gay/trans/ill/successful/literally ANYTHING #if you can't stand the NOTION of your kid breaking any of your ideas of them then that's a sign i think #and if you're thinking about being a parent it's a sign to step back and truly evaluate what it is you can't stand about that notion

Do we think I can get my employer to reimburse my Netflix monthly fee since I use it to watch copaganda to inspire hypotheticals for my criminal law class?

Some excerpts from Adv. Vrinda Grover's statement at the Supreme Court of India, as a part of the 15 petitions that were heard for the marriage equality bill. She presented arguments for the concept of a chosen family which was a more progressive stance on how families/unions could be defined by the constitution and it goes beyond just same-sex marriage. It could cover polyamory and recognition of queerplatonic intimacies between 2 or more individuals, and much more:

“During COVID, a study that was done on trans persons found that when trans persons due to lockdown and the nature of the disease, had to return to their natal families and their homes. Over there they faced violence. They faced conversion therapy which is prohibited. And that was actually an illustration of what would happen if other social formations of care and support did not exist. This is what has been described as an atypical family. This form of chosen family is recognized in our law; for instance, adoption.

Adoption is a form of chosen family. Today we recognize families and we conceptualize family as by blood, marriage or adoption."

"There is increasing legislative and judicial recognition of a person who may not necessarily be conjoined through marriage or conjugal intimacies. In relation to the advanced directive, every person who is not a minor shall have a right to make an advanced directive in writing specifying any of the following individual or individuals in order of precedents he wants to appoint as his nominated representatives.

"..Ensure that laws and policies recognize the diversity of family forms, including those not defined by descent or marriage and take all necessary legislative, administrative and other measures to ensure that no family may be subjected to discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity of any of its members, including with regard to family related social welfare and other public benefits, etc. "

"I would say that what we are canvassing before this court is a different imagination. A new imagination of marriage and relationships and of family. An imagination which actually places at the foundation, love, care, and respect which may or may not come from the natal family because of my sexual orientation and gender identity.”

"There can be a feminist jurisprudence and feminist critique of family and that family can perpetuate caste purity and patriarchal control; so there may be persons who are of different sexual orientations and gender identities, which because of the hostility of natal families actually form intimacies that are non-marital, non-procreative, which are intimacies that are the only social conclave and support they can find."

Her statements were pleasantly surprising. Most of the earlier petitions chose to only focus on gay marriage and trans people having the right to marry, and I didn't expect any of the (star)lawyers/petitioners to go beyond that. But this. This is a sign of liberation. It reminds me a lot of the family code that granted marriage equality in Cuba. I love that we have some very progressive minds fighting this case.

#marriage equality #india #this better go well #lgbt #indian lgbt history #she was such a queen for this #a lot of the earlier petitioners werent intersectional enough #they were making points that painted same-sex marriage the cure all for most issues lgbt #someone said that “our families already accept us. now its just the courts that are left”#sir- no-#a lot of them came from upper caste hindu lgbt lawyers who have families that accept them so it's unsurprising #and so having vrinda and raju ramchandran speak after the govt tried to paint this as an issue of the elites was GOLDEN #SC better come up w the sexiest ruling in indian queer history or ELSE-#also w our temple art and kama sutra can yOu bEliEvE we have to fight for this #lgbtq

Spending time alone can be a wonderful opportunity for self-discovery and personal growth. When we take the time to be alone, we can reflect on our thoughts and feelings, pursue our interests, and get to know ourselves better. It's important to remember that being alone doesn't have to be a negative thing. In fact, it can be a chance to learn to enjoy your own company and appreciate all the great qualities that make you unique. So embrace your alone time, and who knows, you might even discover that you're your own best company

From the archives: In this 1971 issue of the Law School’s student newsletter, Gut Reaction, student Jack Baker wrote to the editor in praise of a small but meaningful gesture made in advertisements for that year’s Barristers’ Ball.

Baker ‘72 and his husband, Michael McConnell, were the first gay couple to be legally married in America in September of 1971.
