Is it wrong to bold face lie to a professor in order to get ahead in college as long as I’m not fucking anyone over?
Ugh, stop. Just stop. Don’t ask me about stuff like this when you already know damn well if it’s wrong. I am not a substitute for your superego.You have a conscience for a…
Yes. Yes. Yes. 1,000x yes. Don’t lie. Be nice. Jeeeez.

Help My Uncle and Aunt pay unexpected medical bills and make it to their daughter’s wedding!
Here is the flyer about my Aunt and Uncle’s fundraiser.
In case you missed my post earlier, my Aunt Karen has been unemployed for a while. When she was diagnosed with breast cancer, she lost her job because she had used up all her sick leave and needed more time to fight it. She had been working there for over 20 years — and had an excellent record (at the time she was a regional manager). She has found some temporary work here and there, but it hasn’t worked out long term. She is just not very good at telemarketing (she can’t push people to buy things). Her unemployment for telemarketing just ended last week.
Her husband, Jimmy, recently had an accident which resulted in him needing a titanium rod put in his back. He was at risk for paralysis. They did not have insurance at the time because the cost of the premium through his work was too high for them to still have money to live on.
Obviously, they have some high medical bills to pay off
Additionally, Jimmy is not allowed to work until the end of June at the earliest (he repairs different machinery at dry cleaners, restaurants, etc.).
Jimmy’s daughter (Karen’s step-daughter) is getting married soon. They plan on driving from Florida to Ohio, but honestly, I know it is not in their budget.
Any help with medical expenses or gas costs would be greatly appreciated. I know money is tight for many. If you don’t have the funds, prayers, good thoughts, and reblogs are appreciated!
The two of them have always been there for me, and their upbeat attitudes in the face of everything has been a constant source of inspiration. Checks or gift cards can be mailed to:
Jimmy Mowery
c/o P.O. Box 224
Litchfield, Ohio 44253
Feel free to contact me positivelypt@gmail.com with any questions. I could also give you my paypal account if you’d like to send funds that way.
Reblogging this in case you missed it yesterday.
Signal boost for a good, nay great Tumblrfriend.

“For the law’s critics, though, even the threat of lawsuits put an intolerable burden on business. “If tomorrow you woke up and some policeman is at your door giving you a summons for something, the fact that you’re innocent wouldn’t make you happy, because you have to show you’re innocent at some considerable time and expense,” says Republican state senator Glenn Grothman, a major driver of the repeal.”
That’s how lawsuits work? Actually, they have to show that you’re guilty, because that’s how the legal system works, but also a good rule to follow would be not paying employees differently on the basis of whether they identify as male or not. Then the policeman won’t come to your door (or principal place of business).

Great.
A Great Day in Harlem - Art Kane, 1958
A Great Day in Harlem Survivors - Gordon Parks, 1996lovely & sad.
I can’t stop staring at this! I just keep scrolling from top to bottom, thinking. Interesting choice of words to call them “Survivors”, rather than “Remaining” Or just “A Great Day 40 years Later”.

Should I take the bar exam and become an admitted attorney in two places where I can live, but would rather not? Or should I go to a place where I like?
Decision #1 Pros
-I studied the law of the states for 3 years
-I can take the bar near my family
-I can spend the summer in a great town
-If I get a certain job, I just have to pass a bar, doesn’t matter what state
-I can take two bars at once, so I have a better chance of passing one, or being admitted to two
-I’ll be able to live near friends and family
Decision #1 Cons
-Winter
-I’m not into the culture of one of the places
-It’s very expensive to live in one of the places, and I may not be making much money.
Decision #2 Pros
-I can get a job faster
-I can be a big fish in a small pond
-I have the potential to do interesting, complex work straight off the bat
-No real winter
-Cost of living is cheap
-I would be near family
-I would be near some of my favorite places
-If I get bored, it would be easy to travel
Decision #2 Cons
-Depending on where I live, I may have to work on getting friends
-Depending on where I live, I may be bored out of my mind a lot of the time not spent at work
-There is a potential to be 40 minutes from a movie theater
-There may not be a great selection of dudes to date
-I’d have to move away from all the friends I made in school. Again.
What should I do? Feel free to reblog or reply.

An Iraq war veteran from Rockland County is seeking to adopt her one-time military partner, Rex, a 10-year-old canine. In September 2006, they both survived a detonated explosion outside of Ramadi, Iraq.
Megan Leavey’s initial requests were denied because Rex was still active but recently, he was diagnosed with facial palsy, a nerve paralysis and can no longer function on the battlefield. Since her first attempts she has experienced a surge of support and on Tuesday, Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., launched a nationwide online petition asking the Air Force to approve Leavey’s submission:
Hey Tumblr… she’s from my neck of the woods — Rockland represent! — and I’m hoping you’ll consider signing this here petition to help reunite Sgt. Rex with Corporal Leavey. The petition is at 10,823 signatures right now, and any little Tumblrbump helps. Thanks y’all. :-)

Hi there, all you talented people!
My name’s Aleph, an enthusiastic amateur comic writer, and I’ve got an idea for a superhero comic to be serialized in 24 page “issues” out here on the internet and I need an artist to make it happen; preferably one who enjoys drawing persons of all shapes,…
