James William Hicks III, Esq.

This was a reminder for me to upgrade my own Internet.

Buddy of mine just had his first merch drop, check it out.

Good news @InouKage, one of your Oshis is into Maids.

I’ve officially run out of wall space in my office. The Virginia Board of Bar Examiners finally got around to sending me a wall certificate for passing the VA Bar Exam. I already have a wall certificate from the VA Supreme Court for being sworn in to practice in Virginia, a certificate to operate for my Law Firm from the VA Bar, a wall certificate for being licensed by the DC Bar, a wall certificate from the Ohio Supreme Court for being licensed there, my Law Degree from Akron, my Con Law specialization certificate from Akron, my Bachelor’s in IT from Marymount, my 2A law CALI award… Do I take down the American Flag and gavel painting or the plaque with St Thomas Moore’s Lawyer’s prayer my Aunt got me as a graduation gift? The whiteboard I use to organize my thoughts? The Fate/Zero wall scroll? The really nice print of Saber I got framed after buying it at a con? My framed copy of Chapter 2 of the original US release of the Evangelion manga? A signed picture of John Riggins? An art piece of Ryan Zimmerman celebrating the Nationals winning the World Series? My Cleveland Indians pennant? What comes off the wall?

Again, I try to seperate the streams, but if you’re looking for something to read now that everyone’s favorite fanfic site is down, I got you fam.

Not a great look, considering most people became aware of her through her association with a Corpo talent, who then helped her get hired on. Not everyone is meant to be a Corpo. All Corpos have issues. But making statements like this is generally a Career-limiting move.

Re: Youmacon Youmacon was already on my list of conventions I’d advise against doing business with for a variety of reasons, having been in the convention scene with @WarOnPantsPanel for over a decade. The last-minute cancellation of a guest for a reason other than Force Majeure is just another reason added to the pile, and a sign that nothing has changed for the positive since the change in ownership.

Dude, you cut a bad check for POUNDS of a Schedule I drug that wasn't legal at the time you bought it. How in God's name is your Attorney supposed to defend you when you create a paper trail that, by its nature, attracts attention?

As an Attorney, this is not true. Copyrights remain active and rights holders can sue you for infringement. That said, the juice is often not worth the squeeze to go after abandonware sites for rights holders, which is why many still exist. This is not legal advice, sail the high seas at your own risk.

Re: Umamusume Visa fuckery happens, regardless of country. When I did a semester in Japan, my Immigration Law professor ironically had to teach the first month remotely from the States because his work visa got held up. If reports that Cygames failed to pay for Premium Processing are true, they seriously dropped the ball.

I know VTubers who had previously also done IRL streaming before becoming a VTuber under a different persona and even still appear in person at events under the previous persona. But they’re careful to make sure the two worlds are separate, because part of the magic of VTubing is the fantasy. One example of the shattered illusion is KSon. I -like- KSon, and I even popped as a fan when she showed up in Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth, but she was infinitely more intriguing to me as Coco before we saw her face.

Took a look at Indians tickets if they make the World Series, as a possible Birthday gift for Mom. $1500 on Stubhub for the nosebleeds. What the shit?
