These are the sorts of days I pursued a career in law for. Engaging unprecedented legal argument and unanimous acquittal. Happy tears from a lovely client, and a dog no longer facing a potential death sentence. The two will be reunited tomorrow.

Every time I think about glue traps I’m shocked and panicked that they are still allowed, sold, used, considered totally a-okay, etc. Can you think of anything else as absolutely torturous that are just so widely accepted?? – at Winnipeg, Manitoba
