Office goals!!

POV: You're stressed as all hell because you haven't completed your case memos for your internship, you have 171 emails to answer, you slept through your spin class, groceries are dwindling and the number in your bank account is getting lower.

But nails are on fleek, incense is on, you found some Planet Oat coffee creamer....and you remember that your job is not to manage what other people think of you. Your job is to put as much into the stream of life today as you can.

Let's get it this morning ✊️

A lovely day at the office last Friday ✨️📎🗃🖋 I'm actually kind of hoping they call us back to work in person because these views are to die for, I can get a soda + vegan snax for less than $4, and I'm starting to get a little malaise working from home (after over 2 years of loving it lolol)

[lifeofthemindless]

UGH I'm so resentful even though my coworkers are trying to do a good thing....I'm on the Green Committee (yet somehow the only vegan ¿?) and we had a speaker today talk to us about bird strikes and what we can do to save migrating birds from crashing into our windows. I am ALL FOR saving migrating birds, but it amazes me that the same people who are willing to go to such lengths of time and money to save the few downed birds that strike our building each year are willing to turn a blind eye to the 9 billion birds killed every year for meat in the U.S. (that's not even counting turkeys or egg-laying hens). Don't we arguably have even MORE responsibility towards the birds we bring into this world, than the ones in the wild?

Going vegan saves countless more birds than putting up a window decal, full stop.

And I wonder if slaughterhouse practices were as visible as downed birds, if that's where our resources would be allocated....

Throwback to some legal research as opposed to answering emails at work today...I also love my Cancer mug 🦀

Catalogue of things I've learned in the past month-ish to remind myself I'm making progress even if I feel underwater:

1) that each circuit of courts is not legally binding on other circuits, but can be persuasive authority

2) how to use KeyCite, copy with citation, and tell which cases are published opinions vs unpublished

3) a lot of terms. Probative; motion to suppress; continuance; file the record on appeal; remanded, reversed, vacated (still fuzzy on which of these is which lol)

I'll tell myself this is healthier than splurging on actual law school outfits....

Never regard study as a duty but as an enviable opportunity to learn to know the liberating influence of beauty in the realm of the spirit for your own personal joy and to the profit of the community to which your later works belong.“
