2024.05.15 15:39 dtbrown101 Looking for free, very, very thorough deep dives on major Supreme Court Cases?

Alright, I imagine this post is kind of unique for this sub, so stay with me.
I am a high school government teacher, working to train an AI to work as a sort of "expert witness" during the Oral Arguments portion of a Supreme Court simulation. That's to say that I'm loading an AI with reliable sources on Supreme Court Cases, and instructing it to pull exclusively from that information, as my students inquire about details of the case. The AI will search these records, identify the information they need, and present it in layman's terms.
I've had a really easy time finding court opinions and loading those in, but I've found they're really lacking specifics, and tend to just generate responses that reiterate the decision of the court. I would like to find some like, massive, extremely thorough files, so when my students ask things like "what was the difference in funding between schools in San Antonio vs Rodriguez?", it will actually provide them with numbers and data.
I assumed this would be public information and crazy easy to crack open...but then I remembered that I don't have a law degree, and have like, a passable understanding of what I'm really looking for.
Is anyone aware of the resources I would want to plug into this AI and where I might find them?
Thanks for your help!

2024.05.15 15:36 Character_View_535 27[M4F] will you marry me? Would you like to be home in my arms? Maybe I could cook something? Looking for Girl to take me as her husband

Me Height is 168 cm but don't worry I'll still protect you. Weight can fluctuate. Been wanting someone who motivates me to be better. Going to the gym is like a punishment tbh. I walk daily. I am a student. Used to be a med student so I will help you in your studies. I game too. I watch movies. My favorite movi3 would be the A team. Most impactful movie would be Schindlers list. Best war movie would be saving private Ryan. All quite on western front. Best series I watched would be breaking bad. Best anime I've watched is death note and steins gate. Loved artists are Edward hopper. Caravaggio. Vincent van Gough. Rembrandt. I forget a female artist but I loved her too.
I am loyal, let's just say I don't talk to anyone if I talk to you. Old values. Family oriented. Living with mom whom I have taken care of. Spiritual, will teach you. I wann empower my lady. Discuss with her daily things about life. Establish a deep deep bond with her. Not borne out of loneliness or need to settle down cause everyone else is. I don't work like that. That's shallow to me. However, it proves love is free.
I am respectful. You say no. I'll go away. I have boundaries too. I reciprocate whatever you give. I make extra effort to show you that I care and want the best for you. I give 100% attention and when I don't I communicate and speak about why and what's bothering me. You'll never be in the dark about me. I listen to you as well. Your input is very valuable for me. Especially when I know you love me.
I have traumas and pains. Single parent. Been through abuse. Both with family and outside. So can be a complicated person at times but I have noticed that assurance and validation helps me alot. Especially when you mean it. Someone I met here told me they'd be my baby and love me. But they left. The others left too. She said I could talk to her and she left anyway. Cause Maybe she didn't like how I looked. (Which is subject to change)
I love cuddles and hugs and being all romantic and soft. The world outside us harsh at least here I want to be soft and baby you and speak to softly and be genuine, to you. Making you happy makes me very happy. I apologize too I don't have a ego as most would. If it's my fault I wanna fix it. I am mature like that.
Money's not everything. I'd appreciate if you shared the same ideal. We are looking for love not buying it. It's about building and growing not applying for a job.
I am moving on to a new phase in my life. I need someone open minded. Open as in serious about having a relationship and not a situationship or a having a option. To me it doesn't matter where one is from as long as you are recognizing of the qualities within a person. Such as loyalty, respect, responsibility and the ability to appreciate and understand- Pain, fear, love and care and truly want it for themselves, to learn and establish a bond through effort.
I need someone the same. Who puts in effort. Willing to give and get. Love and be loved. Who will give me the time of day and reciprocate the feelings and emotions and value them.
Thanks for the read. Please msg me on Instagram- freshbreadb

2024.05.15 15:34 jiajie0728 What are some advices that you think would be helpful between me (M17) and her (F17)?

Hi all,
It's my first time asking strangers things about relationship. So please forgive me if my story and question is a bit weird.
To start it off, there's this girl in my school and we live close to each other so we travel on the same bus everyday back and forth. Me and her are currently doing A Levels (junior year) now, but we've known each other ever since when we were in Year 7 (6th grade). We did not had a good history back then as I was an annoying little brat who thinks he's the coolest since he plays football and yeah I was not good with girls. When we get to Year 11 (sophomore year), we started to get more common classes and we became closer since I became more mature over the years and my friendship with girls are getting better with girls.
After Year 11 (sophomore year), many of my friends (and hers, too) left for college to study Foundation courses while me and her stayed in the same school to study A levels. Since there are less students/people in the year group now, everyone who stayed back for A levels became closer and closer. I became best friends with her and I gotta admit that I enjoy going to lessons with her and also teaching her maths (she's bad at it).
So everything was alright and so on until about 3 months ago, where she started giving me more and more attention and also I often caught her looking my way when I'm hanging out with my friends. At first I just thought: "Oh, maybe she is just zooning out, not a big deal" and went back to what I'm doing and shit. But after awhile, I realizes that everywhere I go, I can almost always see her somewhere even tho we share 2 of my 4 subjects together.
So as you know, in A Levels (or 6th form), us 6th formers get free lessons where we either hang out in the common room or we study together. Almost every time when I have a free lesson I go to the library and study. She often hangs out with her friends in the common room (she took art, dt and maths so there were nothing for her to study tbh while i took maths, dt, chemistry and physics). It was also around 3 months ago, I started to see her coming to the library with her friends more and more often.
So this brings us to around a month ago. That's when things really started to go on heat and that's also when I realized that I fell in love again (maybe). So in DT, me and her sat together and we help each others with work (I'm good at CAD softwares). So in this one month, I found her to get a little bit touchy (like she would hit me (as a joke) and she doesn't have any problem of me giving a pat to her shoulder and so on so on). Also in the meantime, she likes to joke around me and we would laugh at jokes and share funny reels at each others and stuff. My weakspot in this whole crush thing is when a girl gives me attention, I fall for them. So there I am, falling in love with her, but not sure that if she actually just treats me as a friend or she has a crush on me (I'm a heavy overthinker from everything that I had experience before).
I've never dated anyone before and I don't really have any female friends who I want to talk to them about this. I don't really know what I should do at this point. Should I keep it platonic? Should I ask her out? What do you guys think? I think I have a crush on her but in a way I think the only reason I have feelings is because of the attention that I'm getting. Sorry for the long paragraph and also my bad english :\

2024.05.15 15:33 brownskin_lady Started my new job this week and...

I thought I hated mornings. To be fair, I have small children and they make mornings chaotic. Trying to get them dressed, fed and out the door before hurrying to my own job early to try to get planning and work done before the students arrived was chaotic and stressful.
Turns out I don't hate mornings! I just hated my job. I started my new job this week, and the atmosphere is much more relaxed and easy-going. Since I'm not expected to be at work before work hours to get caught up, I have been able to sleep in later and not be in a general state of panic/stress while we get ready for the day. I have picked up coffee from a few different coffee shops and moseyed into work at the start of my day. It makes such a difference!
Hoping to shine some light from the other side. If you're tired, stressed out and looking to leave the school, it can be much better!

2024.05.15 15:33 Either_Situation_836 The Essential Role of Communication in Our Life

Communication plays an important role in all aspects of lives. Communicating with other requires exchanging thoughts, feelings, and information whether it is texting, written, gestures, and in person interaction. Communication is the process of exchanging messages with another person, but this can also fail if it lacks comprehension and understanding. Feelings, moods, different languages, and even technical problems may cause the communication to fail.
Effective communication is essential in our everyday lives since it affects our relationships with other people whether it is in school, workplace, and even our own home. Having a good communication in school can help a lot in terms of one’s academic performance, same in work if you have good communication skills this may help you to achieve a promotion and good feedback from others. Our personal lives are also greatly impacted by communication, whether it is our relationships with our friends, classmates, workmates, teachers, family, a stranger, and even personal relationships. Being able to communicate well may improve our relationship with these people, it is easier to speak up what’s in your mind rather than keeping it to yourself. The lack of communication can lead to misunderstanding, arguments, and issues with each other. Therefore, having a good communication skill can help improve our relationship with other people, it is the easiest way to have a connection with someone. In this day, the way we communicate with others have improved because of technology and it is more convenient than before, we can now use our social medias to talk with someone without needing to write letters or meet in person, but sometimes being over exposed to these platforms have disadvantages too. Being able to meet in person and communicate may be a better option to prevent misunderstandings, unlike in other messaging apps some people might misunderstand your point or what you’re trying to say. Reducing the use of social media and meeting in person to talk to someone is a great way to avoid miscommunications.
Even though communication is complicated and has a lot of aspects, it still plays the most important part of our lives. We can have a successful relationship in school, our job, and our personal relationship with others depending on how good we are in communicating, and communication requires understanding because without it, it can lead us to misinterpretation, conflict, and a misunderstanding in relationships. We can improve communication and create deeper, more meaningful relationships with others by understanding all aspects of communication, seeing obstacles, and continually improving our skills. Relationships and communication relate to each other, the better the communication the stronger the relationship. Communication is the 10% of our knowledge and the other 90% is how we feel about that knowledge. How we communicate our thoughts, ideas, needs, and opinions and how the other person perceives it is the foundation of our relationship with others. Being able to communicate well is a great thing because it has the power to improve our relationship with others.

2024.05.15 15:30 DisruptiveKnob I Should've Loved You Better

L,
I know that based on my first attempt to apologize and the emotionally involved letter I wrote, there seems to be no longer any space between us.
I didn’t handle my panic or strong emotions with the maturity they required. Apart from not being ready to buy a home and expressing that I didn’t want to break up, the other things I said about my concerns of depression and commitment were driven by intense emotions. Looking back, I understand how my words deflated you and left you feeling unsupported. I was trying to express my fears poorly, and it never meant that I wanted our relationship or the future we had planned to be a full stop. I needed more time before making such a huge decision, and the pressure got to me. I felt I owed you an answer immediately, and not everything was genuinely expressed.
I regret sending the letter I wrote. I had written many and decided against sending them, but this one was sent out of an inflated ego and strong emotions. I was hurt by the language you used, and instead of de-escalating the tension, I made things worse. I couldn't connect my emotions and rational brain.
In hindsight, I needed a moment to pause, to give my fear and panic space, and then release them to keep moving forward. I didn't take that pause or allow the space. I was coming to you for reassurance without even knowing it.
Every day, my chest feels like it will burst, knowing that I was reactive with my fear, anxiety, and panic. I did my best to manage it but fell short.
It’s clear that I need more time to work on emotional regulation and communication. I’d like to ask for forgiveness, and I hope that any connection we might still have can stay as an ember that, with some air and fuel, can once again turn into a flame we both feed. Despite my poor attempts, I have been trying to fight for us.
You said you’re at peace without me and that you settled on the idea of dating me. Is that true?
E

2024.05.15 15:28 Angel_Daine Everything is repeating.

Hello, I am 18F. I feel like I'm stuck in a loop. All the supposed "friends" I've ever had, just used me. They asked for help and everything and support. And I gave it to them unconditionally. But they always left me without any reason. They just did. Not only that most of them spread false rumours about me. Almost forcing me to be isolated. I've been treated as non existent, as scum of the earth when I was nothing but a new kid in 8th grade.(mind you wasn't the only one but the only one that was targeted). I've been verbally bullied for being tall, for knowing things and genuinely making efforts, heck even reading. This continued all through my schooling and reached its peak in 12th grade when I was the student body president or the Head Girl. I was picked out by misogynistic women who were my superiors. I had my speech stolen, all the work dumped on me (stuff that a student shouldn't be the one handling) and pressure on being the top scorer. Among all of this I was basically ridiculed for doing something, not doing something, even breathing was a no-no. They say something and the next moment they say something entirely different. They put this pressure on my floor coordinator as well to the point she cried and I held her. No one held me when I cried, not even her. She kept quiet. It felt like at this point the entire school had a problem with me doing anything and those who genuinely cared about me were few, but they came up with their own problems and I had to help them out because that's what i always do. Now in college, this is repeating, what already has happened thrice or 4 times already. Its happening again. I thought its finally different, I am in a trio, it's very hard for me to, but they convinced me with promises. Those two shit talk and gossip a lot. And they don't talk about interests instead family drama or stuff like that. Our classmates don't like that. They approached me because I'm nice and bombarded me with what they did to them. Plus they told me to leave them because clearly they leave me alone a lot of times (which is true). I understood where they are coming from. But I don't want to be the middle man. I'm tired. Genuinely, exhausted. I am so stressed I want to puke. I asked these classmates okay give me a solution, you're just adding on to my already list of problems I have to get to. They're advice is oh yeah you're stuck.. or yeah you're alone but you will have to know how to enjoy your own company or be friends with everyone. All of this is easier said than done. With everything that has happened in the entirety of my 12 years of schooling, I'm afraid of being alone, terrified even. I was vulnerable and I told those two from our trio and some of these classmates. They either feed me with empty promises that don't deliver or such advices that are no clear cut solutions. I'm stuck in a loop, im scared. I don't know what to do anymore. I feel suffocated. Please help. P.S: sorry for the long post.. and thank you for reading this.

2024.05.15 15:24 Serious-Fuel-5395 Ideas for School Mental Health Club

As the school counsellor, I'm in charge of the school's Mental Health Club. It's made up of students (around 15 of them) in high school who've volunteered to be a part of it- as I understand from interacting with them in an introductory session, they have a dual vision- 1) to raise awareness and help out with their peers' wellbeing, to work on their own self awareness, wellbeing, and 2) Understand more about psychology. I'm seeking suggestions here on the kind of sessions, projects we can plan to make our time together insightful, engaging, and constructive.
Thank you!

2024.05.15 15:19 Old_Sea_8014 Struggling in the second semester of Computer Engineering

I’m in the second semester of Computer Engineering/IT. It’s really complicated to explain the specific major because it’s new and if I were to explain it, it would be a mix of Computer Engineering and IT (Bachelor of Engineering). I started in the winter semester of 2023 and right now I’m struggling big time.
  1. Subjects. Last semester it was Mathematics A, Physics 1, Programming 1, Introduction to IT and Technical English. Out of all of them I passed Intro and Technical English. I feel like I don’t understand a single thing from Math A and Programming 1. Physics 1 was relatively easy to understand and hard to study/ do the tasks, but it was understandable. Mathematics A was a complete disaster where I absolutely have no idea what’s going on. With Programming A it’s a bit different. Programming “hello world” for the first time was a moment of happiness for me but Programming isn’t just coding it’s learning about algorithmic thinking and problem solving, which I highly struggle with. This semester I have Mathematics B, Mathematics C, Programming B, Physics B, Electrotechnical Basics, Algorithms and Data-structures. After the few first weeks I just started to skip out on the lessons, because I would sit there and not understand anything. The major consists of 7 semesters, each having 6 subjects. I’ve been told that that’s too much but people but they having majored in engineering (social studies and so on) so I’m not sure if what they’re saying can be applied here.
  2. The lack of basic knowledge I lack basic knowledge in programming, mathematics and physics. I’m not talking about high school math and physics. I’m talking about college level. I never realised how high school classes didn’t teach us properly until I reached university/ college and realised this is the just top of the ice berg. Like I said, I lack problem solving through algorithmic thinking which is the bases of this major (or what was taught in the first semester).
  3. Possible retaking first semester subjects Right now I think the best course of action is to repeat first semester subjects and truly pay attention 100% this time. The problem is that I have no idea what to do this semester because it literally just started. Is it normal to just skip a semester or barely come to lectures/seminars because of this reason? I literally understand nothing so what’s the point of sitting there and possibly bothering people?
  4. Not understanding how to study Engineering isn’t like other majors from what I hear. Or forced you to teach yourself how to study and how to study specific things. I recently watched a video trying to explain why CEOs are predominantly (former) engineers and everyone tackled it down to: a. Learning how to study; b. Knowing how to problem solve. I’ve established that I lack the problem solving skills right now and I’ll admit I have no idea how to (self) study. I came fresh out of high school where teachers are not only responsible for you and your academics but also responsible for educating you on certain topics. When you don’t understand it’s repeated and repeated and repeated over and over again. University is mostly self study. Do I know how to do that? No. Am I trying? I am. But trying is not enough when results are not showing. I have concentration problems (not ADHD or anything). I’m easily distracted ESPECIALLY when I have no idea what’s going on. I’ll eventually tune out the lecture and scroll on Reddit or something.
  5. Burnout Yeah, I barely even started and I’m burnt out. People around me aren’t though. They can all already program in C, C++ and Python (what we covered in those two semesters/ what we’re covering and learning right now) as well as Java(script) and more. They’re ace-ing all their tests and while they struggle with exams they’re at every lecture and fully concentrated. It’s embarrassing trying to continue with their pace especially with group work. Literally yesterday we handed in an assignment where I was the “incompetent partner that did NOTHING” and I could feel my partner had enough of this bullshit and even called me out on it, which felt humiliating.
Is this a sub for crying engineering students that just started out? I have no idea. Am I just using this to vent and rant? Absolutely. I’m asking for help as well. Or as much as internet strangers are willing to do. I have no idea how to study. I have no idea how to concentrate. I still really want this. I want to finish my bachelor of engineering. I want this, that and the other thing. And I know I can find the motivation to continue if I just knew I’m not throwing away the next years of my life to not graduate at all in the end. I’m just stuck.
Has anyone been through this? Has anyone else experienced this? Can anyone please give me at least a tip on ONE subject not just everything just ONE THING.

2024.05.15 15:18 yenagumi UPLB BS AAE — Agriculturist Boards?

Hi po! I'm currently an undergrad student from UPLB taking BS Agricultural and Applied Economics. I want to take the boards for Agriculturist, but I wonder if it's okay since our curriculum prescribes only 7/9 of the required units to qualify for the exams. I will still be taking the remaining two as additional units (non-credited), but will this suffice? Please let me know po if this still qualifies because I consulted my adviser and maybe someone did this before since they allowed me naman, just asked for a formal letter 🙏

Imagine a pebble tossed in a pond. The ripples spread outward, reaching every corner. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is like that pebble. It's a business commitment to positive change in the communities they touch.
In India, companies must dedicate 2% of profits to CSR, but the benefits go way beyond compliance. Strong CSR can:
  • Boost reputation: People love companies that give back.
  • Motivate employees: Working for a purpose feels good.
  • Build stronger communities: Everyone benefits from a thriving environment.
That 2% can make a huge difference, especially in rural schools. But strategic direction is key. Here's how we turn CSR efforts into real results:
The power to create a better future lies with all of us. Let's rewrite the narrative, one act of social responsibility at a time.

2024.05.15 15:16 candycrusher19 Should I do a year abroad?

I (f/15) am currently in 9th grade at a German High School. When I was 13 years old, I was bored and fed up with by small hometown, so I decided that I wanted to go abroad for a year. My parents were very supportive and we talked to my principal. He said that students who go abroad are usually older and in year 11 (in Germany secondary school is from year 5 to year 13, but after 10th grade you transfer to „Oberstufe“, which is at the same school, but it is only mandatory if you want to go to university. Year 11 is sort of like test year to see if the „Oberstufe“ fits you). I have always been very good in school, so he suggested we use a program for gifted kids, so that I could do it earlier, but my parents and I didn’t further pursue the idea. Then suddenly, for a long time I felt like I couldn’t leave home, because there are so many things that bind me to this town. Now, 2 1/2 year later my life looks drastically different. In my free time I do voluntary work with children, which usually occupies three days a week. My every day life is not boring anymore and I am having the best time at school with my friends.I am also the best student in my class and naturally gifted. Recently I thought about exchange years again. I will be in year 11 in a little bit over a year, so it is time to make a decision. On the one hand I dreamed of this adventure since I was very young and I always wanted to go abroad and see the world. On the other hand, I am currently the happiest I have ever been with my private and school life. So why should I change something when I am happy? I worry that I will be unhappy in another country and I don’t know if I want to leave my life here behind, even if it’s only for a year. What do you think I should do?

2024.05.15 15:16 mylifeaslee AITA considering divorce after 18years

My husband (39M) and I ( 34F) have been together for 18 years. Since I was 15. We have 4 kids together. Throughout our time together we have been through just about everything. Infidelity on both sides, breakups and petty fights. Since we’ve met he’s always been controlling. Controlling in the sense that I cut all my high school friends off because he didn’t like me hanging out with anyone if he wasn’t there. Controlling that in the beginning I couldn’t have any social medias because he didn’t use them. I never tried to control him, I couldn’t even if I tried. He did what he wanted even if it caused fights. I always accepted it because I love him so much and I wanted to do anything to make him happy. He’s cheated on me physically and I cheated back emotionally (never physical with anyone) which isn’t ok regardless. We always ended up back together and forgiving each other. We never healed our wounds. He always feels he’s superior because he pays rent, pays some bills (I pay some too) he talks down on me and always has. When we argue he’d call me out my name infront of our kids, he’d belittle me and make me feel as if I don’t do enough for our family. But then he’d go back and apologize and say he didn’t mean those things or he’d just give me and hug and act like it never happened. Okay back to it, so throughout our time he’s never been the type to go big for holidays (Mother’s Day, Christmas, birthdays) and by that I mean he never took me to extravagant places or bought me anything crazy expensive which is ok. But he made an effort. He would take me to dinner or buy me flowers, he would ask my mother to watch the kids while we went to Atlantic City for a weekend. For the last few years it’s been nothing. No planning, no effort. He’ll wait for the day if and be like oh here’s some money or wait for the day before and say “I forgot it’s (whatever holiday) what do you want?”. I’ve let it slide for a long time, I always just said it’s ok just give me money or let’s go eat here. Last year in Jan of 2023 I snapped. He was talking down on me infront of our kids because I didn’t make dinner by a certain time, he came home from work and was upset and called me out my name. I couldn’t take it and I told him it was over. (We are legally married since 2021) I packed my things the next day and I took our kids to my mother’s house where I stayed for 4 months. He tried to get me to come home and I refused. I was set on leaving but my guilt caught up to me. I felt bad for breaking apart of family, I felt like my kids would hate me for leaving their father and ripping them away from all they know. So I asked for therapy together, he refused and said we don’t need someone to tell us how to fix things. I called places and tried to set up an appointment and he agreed but then didn’t want to go. Staying at my mother’s house wasn’t easy but I felt like I had to. After 4 months of him belittling me to my parents, to our kids, I gave in and came home to try again. We made a list of things we wanted to see each other change and do better to fix our marriage and life together. I went through my list, twice. And he agreed to do better. He agreed to make an effort for us and holidays and just time together. Things went great, things were changing and I saw him trying so hard. (Helping with dishes and laundry, the kids and letting me go eat dinner with friends with no arguing) then 3 months in and things started going back to how it was, I brought it up again. He apologized and again, he tried. We did this for the last year. Mother’s Day that just passed came, he waited till 3 days before to say “I forgot it’s Mother’s Day Sunday what do you want” I said money is fine. Trying to let it go. Two days before Mother’s Day (Friday) I went to dinner with friends, came home and he said nothing to me. I brushed it off cause he’s quiet sometimes. Next day (Saturday) he says nothing to me the entire day, went food shopping and he said nothing the entire time. Mother’s Day comes, nothing. No happy mother’s day, no flowers, no candy, nothing. I said something and I said I can’t take this anymore. We are back to square one. We went back and forth on Mother’s Day, argued about everything we talked about last year. He told me exactly this “I am who I am, I always been this way and I’m never going to change” and it hit me, he’s telling me to my face who he is, why am I wasting my life waiting for something that won’t happen? He repeated that throughout our fight and told me to look him in the face and tell him I want a divorce. I did. AITA?
Side note: This is one of the hardest decisions of my life but I feel that if I don’t make it I’ll be waiting forever for something that will never happen and I’ll be unhappy for the rest of my life. My kids don’t deserve that. I don’t think anyone does.

2024.05.15 15:15 Latter-Fact6944 Grassroots Free School - Tornado Damage - Summer Camp

Grassroots Free School is a small private school for elementary to middle school age students off Old St. Augustine Road. The recent tornados damaged the school heavily and it will need substantial repairs.
The school hosts a summer camp annually and students were excited for the new summer adventures ahead, but due to the devastating destruction of the campus, Grassroots must find an alternate location for camp this year. The school is currently waiting to hear back from the Parks and Recreation Department on available rental spaces.
Any suggestions or ideas on available spaces would be greatly appreciated! There would be a small number of campers and Grassroots staff would host the camp.
Established in 1972, Grassroots School is a non-profit, non-discriminatory, private educational setting that honors the endeavor of learning in a comprehensive and unique way.

2024.05.15 15:14 FeelnBootylicious Older Attorney being Overly Friendlly and Weird

I (20s Black female) am a first gen first year law student. A few months ago I went to a networking event where I met an older attorney (60s, white man). We mainly chatted about the firm, his work in family law, and the food served. We have a nice chat but it was clear that we were just different, ya know? So I add him on LinkedIn the next day. After doing so he messaged me giving me his number and email to stay in contact. He said he doesn't use LinkedIn much. I shared my email as well. Now I am not one to share my number, I dont see the purpose if you have my email.
Anyways, a few days later he emails me wishing a good day and just checking in. I didn't think much of it until he asked for my number. I gave it. I figured maybe I should let go of the idea of keeping my number super private given that everyone has their number in their email anyways.
He texts me asking if we could meet for lunch. This is where it got really weird because he started to ask if he could pick me up and where I live. He was also insistent that I pick a place close to my house. I live downtown and most places are in walking distace so this was strange to me. No matter where we go in the city, I will be close to home. Maybe 15 min max.
Still, I am a people pleaser and honestly curious af. We go to lunch and he is quick to tell me he wants to be my mentor and aid me in finidng a path to a successful career. Maybe now is a good time to say he works at a large firm that I (and many people from my school) would love to work. He's been there about 30 years. With this being said, I still do not want this man as a mentor lol. There's just no connection like that between us. Idk. He goes on to tell me about his family, primarily his kids who are my age, and slight mention of his wife.
My friend ended up walking in while we were at lunch and stopped to say hi and tell me she'll be at the library if I want to study. The entire time shes talking (maybe 1-2 minute tops) he is giving just evil eye. Its like he's pissed and trying to hide it.
The lunch ends with me showing him some open positions in the area fro summer interns and he takes it upon himself to point out EVERY Black attorney or judge that he knows. He points out non-POCs as well but he announces which are Black. He said he was doing so because he assumed I would like to get to know the Black professionals. I quickly corrected him by informing him that while I would love to meet people who look like me in my field, it is certainly not a determining factor of my interest.
Anyways, he told me he wanted to introduce me to the Black attorneys in his office as many are recent graduates and we would have more in common. I was interested in his offer but it was soon clear that he has absolutely no relationship with these women as all but one ignored his email. The one who responded pointed me to my school's career development office, which I found weird since there was no mention of me looking for a job...
The last communication was last night when he texted me a little pass 11pm to say he hopes all is well. I don't know why he thinks its appropriate to text me soooo late. I dont know what to do with this man.

2024.05.15 15:14 InformationNo6208 Does AP Ever Apologized to Y'all (I know I'm kinda being delusional out here)

I had an argument with my this morning over if I will give her my phone. Basically, I'm about to graduate from high school, and my uncle is giving me a new iPhone 13 as a gift. I honestly don't need it because I already have two phones. Then my mom demanded me to still take it and give it to her instead because she need a new phone (she have an iPhone 10). I understood her concerns and I won't really have a problem with that. But I will give it to her under one condition ONLY, if she apologized for what she did to me in January, she broke my iPhone 12 pro max, basically smashed and destroyed it. For a single reason, I didn't go to bed at 23:00 and I was playing games on my phone (Boom, classical AP behavior, she never apologized/compensated me, so I had to get myself a new iPhone 12 pro max). Oh be aware, she didn't pay for any of the phone I possess. After hearing my request, she then started to saying that it's her responsibility and she have the right to take care of me, breaking my phone was just part of the action.
I almost wanted to start laughing right there, but I told her tha her behavior isn't a responsibility, it's an act of violence. She then start saying, oh see if I will do that after you turn 18, I won't because you aren't responsibility of me anymore. I still wanted an apology, I'm not even looking for compensation anymore (giving up hope already). She then started ranting about how I'm ungrateful for everything she has done, everything she did for me and my sister. How she paid for school field trip, and all the sacrifices she made for me and my sister. I am grateful for what she did, but that's not her excuse of committing such action against me and my sister (she broke my sister's remote control b/c she got mad at her, too). Now I thought about what she said, I think she's trying to play the guilt trap card again (or I'm being delustional). With what happened, I wanted to either reject my uncle's gift or keep it and resale it.
Just wanted to know if other APs have apologized/compensated y'all, and under what circumstance. Please let me know, thank you so much!

2024.05.15 15:14 LoneWolfIndia Vamsy - A true maverick

Vamsy - A true maverick

https://preview.redd.it/1955409jzk0d1.png?width=500&format=png&auto=webp&s=2fb405c24b6bca840fc355d86850257c83685fa3
It's actually hard to classify Vamsy as a director, while his movies have a very aesthetic feel, he combines it with a fast paced style of narration, rapid fire dialog and a very unconventional style of movie making. That is the reason why his style of movie making was not universally liked, much before Ram Gopal Varma or Sandeep Vanga, he was the true cult director. Or one should say an auteur.
His movies had his own distinctive style. good or bad, that was his trademark. And he covered different genres, from artistic( Sitara) to murder mysteries( Anveshana) to comedies( Ladies Tailor, April 1 Vidudala) to family dramas( Preminchu Pelladu). 4
His real name was Nallamilli Bavireddy and Vamsy was his pen name, that he choose for the screen too. His first movie Manchu Pallaki(1982) itself gave an indication of his talent.

https://preview.redd.it/9212af7o0l0d1.png?width=736&format=png&auto=webp&s=bd3bb778eab31b04ed1018f4439a3ef7307394bd
A story of 5 friends played by Chiru( in his early days), Rajendra Prasad, Saichand, Narayana Rao, Saichand and Girish( of Saptapadi) fame, whose life changes after they come in contact with Suhasini. It was a remake of the 1981 Tamizh movie Palaivana Solai, and though not a very big success, the movie gained lot of appreciation from the family audiences for it's very sensitive storytelling. It came as a breath of fresh air in Telugu cinema, that was getting saturated with routine movies.

https://preview.redd.it/7nbdxyri1l0d1.png?width=220&format=png&auto=webp&s=aff15a2e23dde274ae98e624b9533d647dfc415c
It was Sitara in 1984 that made everyone take notice of Vamsy, based on his own novel Mahal lo Kokila. The movie also marked Bhanu Priya's debut, as Sitara, a women on the move, who is helped by a kind hearted photographer Devadas( Subhalekha Sudhakar), and helps her to become a movie star later. However when she refuses to go to a particular village for a shooting, Devadas demands an explanation, and she recounts her rather painful past.
The movie straddles two different worlds that of the Zamindaris, and their false prestige, that makes them show off as wealthy, when in reality most of them are actually paupers, and that of the movie stars, and paparazzi. There is a lot to write about this movie, but couple of things, it has the very distinctive style of K.Viswanath in many scenes, under whom Vamsy worked as an assistant director.
And it began Vamsy's collaboration with Illayaraja, who would go on to compose some memorable songs for his movies later. As also the Godavari backdrop, being a native of that place, not many movie directors captured the region as well as Vamsy did, be it the natural beauty or the dialect or the traditions.
It also marked a very visual style of storytelling that would be a feature of most Vamsy movies going ahead. Also the beautiful sunrise and sunset shots, along the Godavari river, contrasting it with the rather claustrophobic atmosphere of the Zamindar Chander( Sarathbabu) mahal. Sitara went on to become one of the biggest hits of that year, as Bhanupriya became a star.

https://preview.redd.it/9nmnwmcd4l0d1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=696fd262a3a8d580539c59784d23cb7ee10c8b01
It was with Anveshana that Vamsy came into his own, developing his very distinctive style of movie making. I had already written about it here in detail, but would like to point out that much before RGV in Shiva, Vamsy used the tracking shots to very good effect here, especially in the forest scenes.

https://preview.redd.it/tbj7egrt4l0d1.png?width=500&format=png&auto=webp&s=6d2230564e08a810f894758c1682812e8ab7eb96
Preminchu Pelladu Rajendra Prasad's first movie as a leading hero, dealt with the clash between old and new. Satyanarayana plays Kurmavataram, a conservative, orthodox Brahmin, who is taught a lesson in humanist values by his grandson Rajendra Prasad, and his estranged grand daughter Bhanupriya. Quite a good movie, had a memorable soundtrack by Illayaraja with songs like "Vayyari Godaramma", "Gopemmma Chethilo", "Nirantharam Vasanthamu", "Nee Chaitra Veena" remaining memorable today.
His next movie Aalapana was not that great with a very disjointed narration, and trying to be a cross between an artistic movie and a thriller, fell in between. However Illayaraja's score was usual great in this movie.

https://preview.redd.it/irmgr9rn5l0d1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=208996a17ba7472498124ade440a03b5b540a7c9
It was Ladies Tailor, that would turn out to be a true cult movie. The story of a tailor Sundaram( Rajendra Prasad) who wants to get rich quick, and follows the advice of an astrologer who predicts that a lady with a mole on her thigh would be fortunate for him. While set in the Godavari region, the narration was totally different, with more risque double meaning dialog, the typical Godavari Yaasa spoken among the working class. And characters like Battala Satyam( Mallikarjuna Rao), Sitaramudu( Subhalekha Sudhakar), the hero's sidekicks, the school teacher Sujatha( Archana), the 3 women Nagamani( Y Vijaya), Neelaveni( Sandhya), Daiya( Deepa) whom the hero chases around, the village head Venkataratnam( Pradeep Sakthi) who hates lovers after a guy duped his sister.
The movie was a true cult flick, that polarized audiences, the college students, youth loved it, while the family audiences hated it. But over the years it has become a cult classic of sorts, and once again a memorable score from Illayaraja with a series of superhit songs "Gopilola", "Porabatidi", "Ekkada Ekkada", "Hayamma Hayamma".

https://preview.redd.it/3s3ikjq97l0d1.png?width=220&format=png&auto=webp&s=7526167ee734cec685369b01bfe88c686a86f350
His next movie Lawyer Suhasini was a disappointment in many ways, again Maharshi was one of those "You hate it or love it" kind of movies. The story of unrequited one sided love, of the title character who pursues the woman he loves Suchitra( Shantipriya). It was the Arjun Reddy of those times, and most audiences did not like the style of narration or the rather down beat ending, as the movie flopped. It however had a great score again by Illayaraja with songs like "Sumam Prati Sumam", "Maata Raani Mounam".

https://preview.redd.it/vxxwcf3z7l0d1.png?width=304&format=png&auto=webp&s=eb207b04203df4e501767e190907dfc01e2835e9
Sri Kanaka Mahalakshmi Recording Dance Troupe to me again one of his best movies ever, set against the backdrop of the recording dance troupes, with a love story thrown in between. The movie was a complete fun ride, with dialogues set in typical Godavari Yaasa, and memorable performances by Naresh, Kota, Mallikarjuna Rao, Ralapalli, Thanikella Bharani, Y.Vijaya. Great soundtrack again by Illayaraja where he also uses old songs of NTR, ANR, Krishna to good effect.

https://preview.redd.it/vl0ja77k8l0d1.png?width=1242&format=png&auto=webp&s=8f976ceb266cc8734bbecc06e4261222dfa3b9b7
Chettu Kinda Pleader was another superb comic thriller, and for a change Vamsy sets the movie in Tirupathi. Remake of the Malayalam movie Thanthram, the movie has Rajendraprasad as Balaraju, a down and out lawyer, who gets to fight the case of a rich widow Sujatha( Urvasi), when her father in law Sarabayya( Gollapudi) files a suit claiming the property is his legally. Vamsy wonderfully combines comedy with drama and thriller, creating a really entertaining movie. Somehow it was not much of a success when released, but in later years has become a favorite on video, DVD. Again a superb musical score by Illayaraja with songs like "Jigijigaa", "Allibili Kalala", "Neeru gaari paari poku", "Chalti ka Naam Gaadi".

https://preview.redd.it/84okdbaa9l0d1.png?width=220&format=png&auto=webp&s=5ff09b1aa067cb05ed88cb7e0affd1b9c50179e3
April 1 Vidudula would be Vamsy's last really great movie starring Rajendra Prasad as a smooth talking videographer Diwakaram, who lies, cheats his way to success. His life takes a turn when the woman he loves Bhuvaneshwari( Shobana) puts a condition that he should not tell any lies for one month, and should speak only truth, throwing everything into turmoil. Setting against backdrop of Rajahmundry Railway Quarters, the movie combines comedy and drama effectively, and went on to become one of the biggest hits in his career. Again a superb score by Illayaraja with songs like "Vompula Vaikhiri", " Nijamante", "Chukkalu Temanna", "Okate Aasa".

https://preview.redd.it/dbq554xfal0d1.png?width=220&format=png&auto=webp&s=ef54473e2c9f33d2a829c57af2aaded54a2f7bc5
However Detective Narada with Mohan Babu turned out to be a huge disappointment, as the movie bombed badly. And with Joker, he stopped his collaboration with Ilayaraja and composed the music himself, which in a way started his decline. Vamsy's movies were not the same without Illayaraja, and a series of very disappointing movies followed. Even though he did make a comeback in 2002 with Avunu Vallidaru Ishtapaddaru, it was nowhere close to his earlier classics.
Apart from being a director, Vamsy is also a great writer, he wrote 5 novels, and around 360 short stories in Telugu. His series of stories Maa Pasarlapudi Kathalu, Maa Diguva Godavari Kathalu are a wonderful depiction of life in rural Godavari districts, on par with RK Narayan's Malgudi Days. Not many explored Godavari districts as intimately as he did covering the world of recording dance troupe artists, railway quarters, villages, creating characters with all the quirks, eccentricities, faults who remain memorable to date.

2024.05.15 15:13 Good-Breadfruit898 I hate Denton

I Hate Denton
Hello, My name is Marcus Smith. 7 years ago I was excited to get home from school. I was told I received my acceptance letter in the mail from UNT. I initially wanted to go to NYC for school, But passed on the opportunity to check out Denton. On the way home, I was in a horrible accident that left my car totalled. I escaped relatively unscathed.
After the last 7 years in Denton, I can confidently say, sometimes I wish I never crawled out of that car. I hate Denton. It has been nothing but trouble since I arrived. The latest incident is the wonderful university of North Texas, covering up an inappropriate relationship between a TA and I. In Feb. Of 2023 I did a sit in about the mistreatment. I was beaten by UNTPD and incarcerated for a month.
It's been over a year, and I have received no major support in dealing with this issue. Furthermore, this has ballooned into me being homeless AGAIN. This is the 3rd time an issue at UNT has ended like this. This city is terrible and I no longer wish to be here.

2024.05.15 15:10 happysunshinemelody Craziest dream I’ve ever had wtf does this mean??

So I started out by going to dinner with a few of my friends. There were like 4 of us. These were all friends I used to go to school with. I was on drugs (some kind of pills I’m not sure) and I ordered 2 drinks which is weird because irl I never drink. Then my ex came in the restaurant, came over to me and said hi and I was like “oh my gosh hi name I was just thinking about you!!!” So she came and sat down with us, but I guess I kind of ignored her to talk to my friends too much and just wasn’t being respectful so she ended up getting offended and left which made me feel bad in the dream but I didn’t do anything about it. During the actual dinner I was basically just talking to my friends but there was a LOT of drama specifically surrounding one friend and her boyfriend, who felt that she was going to cheat on him with her guy best friend. I remember him talking to me a lot about that. When our waiter came back he laughed and told me “you know, you wouldn’t know it from looking at you, but you really have a sweet tooth” and I laughed back and was like “I know!!! It’s crazy!” My friends and I left, and by this time I was really drunk and I was talking to my one friend and my other friends boyfriend who was still talking about this guy he was jealous of. I’m not sure how to explain it but the vibe was VERY MUCH that I was in the process of kinda stealing my friends boyfriend from her. I also accidentally let something slip that made him mad at her and I remember feeling guilty because I felt like I had ruined their relationship (even though we were borderline flirting in the dream, like there was definite interest shown it was weird) then as I was leaving, my friend and I went to walk across the street and all of a sudden this huge bus came out of nowhere and we were like holy shit we gotta RUN so we both ran towards the same direction but it was too close and we had to run another way, she went one way and ended up with creed bratton from the office (literally wtf) and I ran the worst possible way I could’ve chosen and I barely didn’t get hit, I ended up on the other side of the street climbing up a hill of rocks that irl would have collapsed and I probably would’ve been hit anyways. It was TERRIFYING and I was like okay yeah, I’m not going to drink anymore. lol. Then that same friend and I met back up and she drove us back to my house, and in the car I remember thinking I was scared we would drive into a lake, but I had no discernible reason for thinking this. Surprise surprise, we reach my home (which is right next to a river) and before I can fully notice it or process anything, she drives right off a pier into the river. And I was like “MEGAN WTF!!!!” And she just goes “sorry 🤷‍♀️” like it was so normal😭 she opened the door and swam out and I was just hyperventilating in the car which in the dream I thought was weird how I could breathe when realistically the car should have been filled with water. This I guess is where I started to get more conscious because I remember thinking that if this really happened I would NOT handle it well. Eventually somehow i made it to my house, and I went to bed, and in the morning texted my ex and apologized for hurting her feelings and explained everything. I don’t remember anything else, and that’s when i woke up. There were a few minor details like with conversation with my friends and friends boyfriend, but that was like 95% of the dream and i have NO idea what to make of it 😭😭ive never cared too much about dream analyzation, but someone PLEASE tell me wtf any of this means.

2024.05.15 15:05 motivatedhotdog Medical students with businesses and side gigs, how do you do it?

Let me preface this by saying that I'm a GP who has been moonlighting for a couple years now, and hence what I'm about to say is skewed by my personal observations and experiences. If I'm wrong, please feel free to correct me.
Lately I've heard from colleagues (including my own peers, consultants, and med school professors I'm still in touch with) that there are so many medical students nowadays who are also entrepreneurs on the side. While this is a good thing, I'm honestly curious as to how they are able to manage their time and resources towards their pursuits, while during my time it's quite uncommon - I only had one batchmate who ran a business during med school, she's a Neurology resident now. Especially since we all know here just how demanding medical education is in terms of time and effort spent - the idea of earning money on the side definitely did not occur to my med student self. Shifting exams, SGDs, and case presentations were my prime priority back then.
Is this another one of those generational differences? Or did I just happen to be unexposed to the right "factors" that would have pushed me to do the same back then?
