i never realized cuneiform was made with the corner of a cuboid tool, i thought the wedge shapes were carved such that you would press straight down with the tool at a 90° angle to the clay

How Court Really Works

Do you want to know how court actually works? Do you have some vague idea from television but a lot of burning questions? Do you have no burning questions because you're completely at sea?

Great news!

I wrote a series of posts a while ago when no one was paying attention to this blog called "How Court Really Works."

Part 1: Police Investigations: How do cases start? Why are police so bad at investigations??

Part 2: Bail and Arrest, or: So You've Stumbled On the Philosophical Problems Inherent in Paying Money to Get Out of Jail

Part 3: What is Trial & How?, including preliminary hearings, what makes a jury "grand," and how trials work

Part 4: Punishment, Rehabilitation, Deterrence & Incapacitation: Why Prison

Part 5: Probation and Parole, which is for some reason considered an "act of judicial grace" by the case law

I also do take questions and also am perfectly willing to consult on specific written works (including fanfic which I have done for my friends). It's part of my fight against misconceptions about court, and I like talking about myself.

Nothing quite demonstrates the generation divide like how both me and my dad are/were MMORPG players, both of us play lizardfolk monks, but in his case in Everquest the Iksar were legit humanoid lizards whereas mine is an Au Ra kawaii uguu anime girl with a few patches of scales and horns

Tumblr is good for creative types because the tag system lets you be truly deranged about how much you like it without feeling as Exposed as a Comment Section
