This may be the best Pride merch I've seen from a major corporation.

I think Levi's donates to Outreach International every year too, as well as sponsoring pride events and other community support. They were offering Same Sex domestic partner benefits to employees in the 90s, and have been very public about their support for pro-lgbt legislation all through the 2000s.

hmm my former landlords are trying to deduct a frankly off the rails amount of money from our security deposit…my time has come once again

i was chatting with a coworker about this whole saga today and someone nearby popped into the convo to be like “you know, you can use chatgpt to write a demand letter!” and i sort of blinked and went, “okay. i did it myself, though.” and she was like, “yeah but it can tell you what laws and stuff are relevant” and i was like, “i also did research myself.” and she was very well-meaning but she said “chatgpt” like six more times before she left and it was genuinely baffling to me, this insistence on it.

Please never use generative AI tools for any kind of legal dispute. It does not know what laws or court cases are. It will make up something that sounds favorable to you, and you will get crushed. There are free resources out there to learn this stuff. And sometimes attorneys will offer free consultations or volunteer at a free legal clinic. OP didn't just do it themselves to do extra work or some shit. This is really the only viable way to do things short of hiring a professional to do it for you.

Lawyer here also affirming Gen AI is dog shit at accurately summarizing the law and will often straight up hallucinate case law rhat doesnt exist to support your position. I have also had clients send me emails where they have used Gen AI for this purpose and it has pulled together absolutely bizarre interpretations of the underlying statute that pull from unrelated sections in order to generate the result sought by the client. Ive also seen it pull in legislation that doesnt apply in our jurisdiction in order to provide what the prompter is seeking.

oh you’re not kidding

if you're confused about all the pumpkins and ghosts and stuff, it's actually a sort of seasonal harvest festival in parts of the northern hemisphere. yeah, it's kinda weird to think about how it's autumn down there when up here it's spring, haha yeah imagine them all, upside down, and getting colder in october when it's just starting to warm up

what the fuck are you talking about?
