It’s different state by state. I took it in California and you could only take in a clear bag with very limited items (ID, pencils, keys). I think you were allowed to have cough drops and tissues, I don’t remember about tampons and stuff. But you def couldn’t bring in your own purse with a bunch of stuff inside.

Bar exams are ableist as fuck (also racist and classist) and should just be permanently canceled. What it really tests is your ability to pay a bar prep company thousands of dollars, take two months off to study full-time, memorize books worth of outdated and unnecessary law, and then sit still for 2-3 days, 8 hours a…

They’re right in there with them. What’s terrifying people in Portland is that they actually have no idea if the goons kidnapping people are in fact associated with the government at all.

The *only* thing I remember about it is her shooting koosh balls into the audience!

It’s gonna be real weird for all my friends who have ever put their arms around me to learn that we are now in a relationship that we have publicly debuted.

I anticipate for the right price you can find a firm that will take pretty much anything to trial.

Johnny, I’m sure your lawyers have told you by now to stop commenting on articles about yourself. If not, as an attorney, I’m now advising you to do so.

This trial does not make sense to me.

What I don’t get is my cat is mostly a self-regulater. We give her food in the morning and the evening and she eats it throughout the day, doesn’t scarf it all down at once. And yet she will still sit on my chest and meow in the morning and then go sit by her bowl, *even though there’s already food in it.* Your food’s…

It’s a marathon, not a sprint, so find what’s sustainable for you that you can stick with for the long haul! Doesn’t always mean being out there in the streets every day. It might mean putting city council meetings into your calendar so you know when they’re coming up and can check in on whether there’s an issue to…

I feel like people having been making similar memes about Flint not having clean water for a few years now and... Flint still doesn’t have clean water.

Thank you for writing this. The memes feel like they’ve gotten so flippant and pithy that I find them kind of offputting, but I’ve been trying to examine and articulate why. It’s like it’s easy enough to fire off a tweet saying someone should be arrested, but without doing anything else about it.

Yeah when we’ve politicized climate change and vaccines and like, the very idea of healthcare in general... this is where it gets us.

Joe Biden is going to release a list of Black women he’s considering as Supreme Court nominees ..... sometime soon.

Omg thank you for the reminder on the Fade video. Stunning.

Yeah I am but a straight white girl but I stopped going to Pride parades when I happened to go to Pride in 3 different cities over 3 years (SF, Boston, Houston) and it was the same cavalcade of boring ass Wells Fargo and Google floats everywhere. Worst sin, they didn’t even have good or interesting swag!

The grey thing is baffling to me. I’ve been on Jezebel since it started. I haven’t had this burner since it started, but it’s still been several years, and I’ve never been out of the greys. It seems like some sort of mythical status. I’m not a super regular commenter but I have no idea what the criteria are. It should…

Hahaha thank you for that reminder, I was so hung up on the fact that he can’t create a law that retroactively punishes people for something that was not a crime at the time (ex post facto bitch!) that I forgot OH YEAH HE CAN’T PASS LAWS.

Whippets were like the one thing I wouldn’t do in high school because it’s so easy for them to go awry and you break your brain, it freaked me out. It could be your first one or your 100th one that does it.

I didn’t know about it either but I guess that was the point, to raise them out of the spotlight. It sounds like they grew up there. I haven’t really heard of it as a vacation destination, except maybe for skiing in the winter. But I thought all the rich people ranches were in Montana or Wyoming.
