Hello to all the new people here!

I've been in software development for 20 years now (mostly financial and legal tools/automation), now multi-classed into the practice of law.

Outside of work, I'm a seamsmith, costume designer/fabricator, gamer, theater nerd, weeb, and overall harbinger of chaos.

LOL

A representative for GWAR told The Post, "Normalizing violence? Humans don't need GWAR for that. There is nothing normal about the Looney Toon violence acted out on a GWAR stage. GWAR is absurdist spectacle. GWAR is to violence what the New York Post is to journalism. Ridiculous."

Nick Rekieta's sentencing order from a judge whose initials are "SJW" and it being index 69. This is simply the most hilarious combination of coincidences.

Oh. My. Goodness. Look at that index number for Nick Rekieta's sentencing order. 😂😂😂

Screenshot from Nick Rekieta's case. Index #69 is the sentencing order for today.

I don't go to Mihoyo stuff but condolences to anyone who enjoyed Mr Kinich Genshin Impact cause his new voice is a couchfucker and a self-described Sock 'Em Boppers Cock 'Em Bopper

LITERALLY him in the transcript, like one sentence before the Sock 'Em Boppers sentence.

So earlier we were having a conversation about, being a young boy going through puberty, and I had brought up the fact that whenever, whenever. And the guys in the chat. I'm sure you can you can relate to this. We fucked everything like, if you have a 13, 14 year old boy in your house, he's putting his dick in between the couch cushions.

All credit goes to Zach. It was 100% his idea and draft. I only formatted it and threw in a few extra puns because Atreus deserves to have his case look profursional 😂

ATREUS
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
PEST DISTRICT OF VIRGINIA
Plaintiff,
CASE NO.
COMPLAINT
Plaintiff, by ind through his undersigned cat-nsel, alleges the following:
INTRODUCTION
1. The D fendants, referred to as "Authorities," have infringed upon Plaintiffs feline rights by ceasing pet and skritches before Plaintiff was ready to signal he was tired of them by typical feline custom (biting the shit out of them, by allowing his food dish to remain half-empty at times, and by foc sing on trivial human concerns such as working jobs to pay rent and buy food.
PARTIES
2. The Plaintiff Atreus is the bestest boy while simultaneously being a brainless gremlin.
Plaintiff is also known by names of "orange bastard, that little dick, screamy little jerk," among others.
COMPLAINT - 1

3. Defendant Eric is a grown man, with a mortgage.
4. Defendant Kat is a paralegal who knows many attorneys, which would worry

Plaintiff if he was not a cat.
5. Defendants currently house another cat named Kya who is not party to this action as
Plaintiff finds her intimidating.
JURISDICTION AND VENUE
6. This Court has subject matter jurisdiction over this action purr-suant to the "Because
I said so clause of owning a cat.
7. This Court has personal jurisdiction over the Defendants because Defendants both
live and work in Virginia and are staff for their cat overlords.
BACKGROUND
8. Defendants have a long history of violating Defendant's feline rights. On or about
February 5*, 2025, defendant Kat was attempting to schedule a deposition when Plaintiff was
participating in his regular duty of being distracting and adorable. Though Defendant proceeded to give defendant scratches, she ceased to go about her human job before Plaintiff could announce he was finished by biting her hand.
9. On multiple occasions, Defendants have entered one of many rooms in their house,
only to shut the door before Plaintiff could follow them. Plaintiff, lacking opposable thumbs, was unable to open the door to ensure his humans were safe or still extant. Plaintiff could only assume
after several minutes that the Defendants had abandoned him, leaving him with no choice but to howl the song of his people in hope of rescue. Defendants' actions constitute intentional infliction
of emotional distress by ensuring there were stretches of minutes while Plaintiff was unsure his head would receive further skritches.
On multiple occasions, Plaintiff consumed the food left in his food dish. Though
Plaintiff waited with patience for all of three seconds, Defendants left is food dish unfilled until a cruel and arbitrary decided point when they decided to refill said dish. Again, Plaintiff experienced emotional distress with such intervals of believing his plump orange body would receive no further

nourishment. Plaintiff acknowledges he could have eaten from Kya's dish, but he feared being

bapped.
11. Despite being the bestest boy, Defendant has not been provided with an increasing number of treats. Defendant is at risk of withering away to nothing.
12. Parties have had a longstanding contract: Plaintiff does nothing and Defendants shower him with love and food. Plaintiff has held up his end of the contract, but previous fact patterns demonstrate there is insufficient love and attention provided.
JURY DEMAND
Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 38(b), plaintiff demands a trial by jury as to all

Plaintiffs to utilize both hands to deliver pets and scratches simultaneously from hereon.
B.
Damages that have resulted from Defendants' breach of contractual obligations, including compensatory damages in the form of excessive treats.
C.

Plaintiff is to be referred to only as "the bestest boy in the world."
That all doors in the residence remain hereby unshut for Plaintiffs easy traversal.
Such other relief that the court deems just and purr-pur.

This is fucking incredible.

REYES: [The order] calls an entire category of people dishonest, dishonorable, undisciplined, immodest, who lack integrity, people who have taken an oath to defend this country, people who have been under fire, people who have received medals for taking fire for this country. I want to know from the government whether that language expresses 'animus.' Does that express animus? DOJ ATTORNEY: Not in any constitutional- REYES: In a commonsense way. This is a policy from the President of the United States affecting thousands of people ... to call an entire group of people, lying dishonest people who are undisciplined, immodest and have no integrity. How is that anything other than showing animus? DOJ ATTORNEY: I don't have an answer for you. REYES: You do have an answer, you just don't want to give it... People can make solid arguments as to why some or even most transgender people shouldn't be in the military We're dealing with unadulterated animus. We are dealing with the president of the United States dealing with a group of people serving their country... calling them liars. (Reyes then said she changed her courtroom orders to bar people who graduated from UVA law school from appearing before her because "they're all liars and lack integrity and are undisciplined and can't possibly meet the high rigors of benign a lawyer for the government" She made the DOJ lawyer sit down on that basis, then after he did, she called him back up and asked whether that was a display of animus.)

KUSK is an amazing firm filled with some of the most incredible, kind, brilliant, and wonderful people I've ever met.

But just remember, it's also filled with semi-feral gremlins. (Said with love 💖)

And just a few months later... when I was handed yet another life catastrophe?

The entire team lent support, advice, friendship, an ear, and more support.

Won't say I didn't feel bad about needing the time off pre and post surgery. I did. Not because of the team's words or actions, though.

At no point was I made to feel like a burden. Instead, I was given glares and "don't be doing too much" when I did pop in to help with something.

And, of course, because my luck is ☆~amazing~☆ the aneurysm had an aneurysm-sized thrombus. A blood clot. Yay.

I was basically ordered to bed rest to await my surgery. "Brain and body house arrest" as I called it.

Was not to do anything stressful, strenuous, yadda, yadda

I'm gonna add to this as one of the support staff.

Last year, my heart was being stupid (as is normal for it) and resolved itself quickly... but the d-dimer test my doc ordered showed "there's def a problem".

A chest CT later and we learn there's a large splenic artery aneurysm at risk of rupture.
