what I don’t understand is how is keeps happening. Every time there’s a Sunday, we have to do Monday next??? Mods?????

there’s also a bunch of opera at Wolf Trap this summer 👀

ok but lmk if you want an opera buddy. I need to support WNO more

he’s the director at Shane’s commercials too I think!

fair enough, I think distance running is like, at the far extreme end of Holy Shit I Need So Many Carbs To Fuel This

I like that Flavors is off to the side. you kno, just like, that optional thing about food: a flavor

peak performance obvi

I trained for a marathon and I ate so much bread that I was sick of bread. And I fucking LOVE bread. And that was still much less physical activity than a “MLH” player is doing.

please I am begging. Shane is not eating salad three meals a day, he would literally faint

A graphic of a plate. Half is labeled carbohydrates, 1/4 is labeled lean protein, and 1/4 is labeled vegetables

this is also EXTREMELY easy to research. Here is the US Olympic Committee’s recommendation to athletes for a hard training day/competition day, which is probably every game day for a professional hockey player. IT‘S 50% CARBS. HOCKEY IS CARDIO.

*taps mic* hockey players eat carbs and if you are using low-carb as a shortcut to signal “healthy” eating please examine why, thx

the thing about doing a high-stakes thing you’ve never done before while being supervised by five (5) people with contradictory opinions is AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

his owwwnnn thaaaang

it is still one of my all-time favs

there’s maybe some animal metaphors…a (wild) mustang

a spitfire, maybe? a hellraiser? a wild card (or wild child)

answer is most people don’t make it at biglaw by design—it’s meant to make you flame out after a couple years. yr correspondent, at year 10, is an outlier adn should not be counted

it’s also so funny because like. we did, in fact, learn this shit in school

she didn’t freeze me out of the case because I was on pregnancy-related short-term disability leave, of course. That would be illega. it was just because “you demonstrated that you might be unavailable and I needed continuity so couldn’t risk having you on the case until after your maternity leave”

never4get the time I was hospitalized for a week while pregnant and a partner removed me from all correspondence on a case, stopped inviting me to meetings, and once turned around and walked the other way when I waved at her from down the hall

most horrible part to me is many of the examples of awful management are making me go, “wow, I *wish* I got the courtesy of being told I’m being restaffed or my work isn’t good, rather than just getting silently iced out and blacklisted.” although plenty of that in the thread, too

love to be in a profession where every few years there’s an article like “does $job have a suicide crisis?” and the answer is yes but then nothing actually changes

ah great point, i had to erase jh’s grad school experience from my mind to prevent myself from having an apoplexy. and!!! if a PI thinks you’re *not* disposable, they can trap you by continually moving the goalposts for your degree so that you continue propping up their lab

where’s that feeding cats to coyotes post
