Where are all these hundreds and thousands of people? The only transpeople I read about involved in attacks are the ones attacked by people with the kind of prejudice and hatred that's all over this thread.
This is appalling! What's happening to this world!!!?
Your body like you’d own a handbag. Let’s all disassociate together because then we can all be “healthy” because we all go to therapy. In fact you can’t be healthy without going to therapy. The natural states of minds is to be unhealthy- you need to go to therapy and be taught to be healthy. Let’s give you some hormones that will shred your bones and cause cancer because you have big feelings about gender stereotypes. Let’s pretend minors can make life altering medical decisions because frontal lobe development isn’t a real thing - maybe they’re precocious ? Let’s say fat people who are looking themselves are actually healthy even if all of them are dying because of an obesity epidemic. Making people feel good about themselves is more important than actually wanting people to have good lives. Emotions are real and biology isn’t. Let’s also pretend that your biological parents - the folks who gave birth to you and who fed and housed and cared for you all your life aren’t your real parents when they do things that make you mad. Instead let’s pretend strangers on the internet who have questionable views about incest and childhood are your “glitter family”.
And if anyone tells you any different they’re an evil terf nazi bitch and we should literally put them in prison or murder them.
It’s completely off the rails divorced from reality this nonsense.

You want non binary to be a thing so bad you’re willing to ignore the real distress of these forcibly cast rated and exploited men because you want your favourite elite academic to be validated as a prophet. It’s disgusting.
Mention firm and date

Don’t expect people to have the money at Day (-1) to buy laptop for official use.
Also, if office expects us to work on laptop, they should give us one.
Please contribute!
I am flexible about when I want to do an LLM, but preferably within the first three years of graduating, mainly because:
- It might be difficult for me to find a correct time for doing my LLM once I am deeper into my career, I would rather do it rn than not do it at all.
- My family (also lawyers) want me to do it within the first three years, mainly for reason #2.
Wrt regular mooting, I meant i have done four moots (all in one field i.e. competition) including ILNU, NLUJ, TNNLU etc. In those I have not one but I have qualified till quarters/octas/semis + best memo etc. I have decent publications with NLUs + an oxford blog, but I will try to improve upon it this year. I also debate so have 2-3 achievements there too.
1. King's requires a 'good 2:1' (or similar language used on their website). In their classification system, that would mean above 64 to 65%, with a '2:1' (or 'upper second class honours degree') being 60% or above.
2. Anything below 60% is on shaky ground with QMUL as well. Check their entry requirements.
There was a time when the majority of the work thought that lobotomies were a great thing to do to mentally I’ll people. We stopped doing lobotomies because they did trials and measured outcomes and the truth - the objective material horrible truth came out.
There was a time in history when everyone and their mother believed the sun revolves around the earth. But because of objective material reality- because of experiments done over and over again- we now know that that is not true. People thought the earth was flat until many dudes went all the way around and showed that objectively - materially - it is true that the world is not flat.
It is not simply consensus and power that make a thing true. It’s objective material reality- that yea might take some time to have everyone see the evidence or even develop evidence in scientifically rigorous ways - but it is still a real thing.
You didn’t take the covid vaccine because of consensus and power - you took it because of published research that showed efficacy of those drugs. You don’t think climate change isn’t real because there’s no consensus- it is real because of objective material reality.
You don’t believe in the Christian god or Yahweh or any number of other gods because of consensus. You wait for objective material proof.
Your only exception to all of this - I’m willing to bet - is gender. Because it’s the last acceptable religious movement that refuses to consider material reality so of course you think it’s disinformation. When religious people encounter information that causes cognitive dissonance they blame the devil too. You have shibboleths ( trans women are women. Non binary is valid)- and your rituals ( pronoun games) too.
In this thread you’ve gone from a relatively moderate position of “ that’s not what the evidence says” to “ well if the evidence says that it’s colonialism “ to “ the truth is unknowable anyway - it’s all power and social construction”. All because you have cognitive dissonance.

Our education system is broken, hijacked by generations of academics and jurists who predominantly subscribe to one political and social ideology. This has made it easy for individuals like Sibal and Ramesh to advance their campaign. In exercising its unbridled power, this lobby has overridden the constitution and infused school/college texts with their ideology. A mere campaign to revise and improve the constitution—to remove politically and socially charged terms like "secular" and "socialist" introduced by Indira Gandhi during the emergency—is portrayed by these individuals as "an attack on the constitution."
Point to note—The Wire prides itself on being independent and unbiased. It belittles other media organizations, often with compelling reasons, for being pro-Modi or controlled/owned by politicians and corporates. I really want to know how they are any better, running a show hosted by an active politician (a sitting Rajya Sabha member, no less) on their platform. Where's the liberal outrage here for unbiased and independent journalism?
Why should any viewer consider the content or the narratives platformed on The Wire as gospel truth and not INDI Alliance election propaganda?
Any idea about how much does an A3 at SAM makes?
First, what is the difference between Miscellaneous and Regular? SC treats matters in which notice has not yet been issued as miscellaneous, these are mostly fresh appeals or SLPs. The SC also sometimes is keen to pass orders in fresh appeals or SLPs, these types of matters, though no longer fresh (in that notice has been issued), retain their tag as being miscellaneous. As a practical fact, most appeals and SLPs in which SC issues notice tend to retain their tag as miscellaneous, indicating that the SC would like to finish them off sooner rather than later.
Regular on the other hand is a list of matters in which the SC has issued notice but doesn't see the need to finish immediately, therefore they are okay with taking up those matters as and when they get the time. These are matters usually where a SLP has been admitted and converted into a Civil Appeal.
In sum, let's say you file an appeal, when it comes up on the first date it is miscellaneous, if the SC issues notice and fixes a date in some time, it would retain its status as being miscellaneous. The SC could also decide to admit the appeal and hear it as and when it gets the chance, then the matter would fall into the regular list.
Going from here. The Miscellaneous (advance) is the list of Miscellaneous matters that may be listed on a given date, this is not final, it is subject to modifications and deletions. The Miscellaneous (Main) is the list of Miscellaneous that are listed on a given date. The Miscellaneous (supplementary) is the list of Miscellaneous matters that were added last minute. Similarly for regular.
What proportion. Without British colonisation of course we wouldn’t be a secular democracy- we weren’t a secular democracy before they came.
Is Christian fundamentalism or Hindu fundamentalism the dominant group within Christianity or Hinduism ? Do the Christians in Nordic countries and America and England arrive at secularism because their religious fundamentalists are tempered by the enlightenment values of most Christian’s in those countries ?
Is India perhaps secular because many many Hindus including Gandhi and Nehru and Ambedkar and everyone else who thought like them rejected Hindu fundamentalism of their coreligionists in favour of a secular state ?
Why then are people in iran or Pakistan or Afghanistan unable after all this time to reject the fundamentalists among their coreligionists ? Why are they not secular democracies ?
Also, what will motivate you to join such a firm, and how important are the following factors in your decision – (i) lack of options, (ii) reputation of the partner(s); (iii) reputation of the firm as a whole; (iv) nature of work; (v) WLB and non-monetary benefits (such as WfH etc), and (vi) how close the remuneration is to the market/transparency in remuneration structure?
2) NALSAR (cause its relatively older in age)
3) NUJS (same as NALSAR)
4) NLUD (relatively lower offers as it’s somewhat younger as compared to NALSAR or NUJS)
5) GNLU (there were rising offers till about 2022, ‘23 was completely flat idkw)
Honourable mentions:
NLUJ and NLIU get 2 or 3 offers between them each year.
The admin being toxic to the bsc students is flat out lie. In fact, the admin is heavily pushing this concept of bsc llb since they were the ones to introduce it.
About discrimination from other students, I would say ranges from less to almost none, especially for this year. Our seniors in bsc llb did face one or two incidents in the beginning but since then, there have been 2 entire big fests and numerous other activities held at nujs and both bsc and ba have collaborated on the occasions, even participating in various moot court competitions together. In fact, in both of the 2 incidents mentioned above the seniors from 3rd and 4th year helped mediate the issues between both the batches.
Overall I feel the atmosphere is pretty welcoming. Any noticeable bits of "hate" are slowly fading fast, since in the words of a bsc seniors ." both bsc and ba have got proportional amounts of backs in contracts, and since then they have understood we are worth the same" XD
