ahahaha. I've lived in NYC my entire life and the prospect of potentially leaving the city for LS (for a catholic affiliated school, no less!) has given Cubbyhole a new sense of reverence for me. I appreciate the ceiling more...the $2 lighter fluid margaritas...the clearly underage college queers...oof.

The gaybie invasion of the Cubbyhole is real, but yeah. I, too, am letting LS sorta help me claw my way out of NYC.

Those margaritas...

Wow I haven't been to Cubbyhole in so long...there are 0 lesbian bars in SF.

All I hear from that is "its time for us all to go and say goodbye" (assuming many of us are leaving for bigger, better, cheaper things

Where are you going? Congrats!

Getting tipsy on the $2 margs, then stumbling over to Stonewall for popcorn and M&Ms on Tuesdays is how I'm getting through this cycle. I finally escaped to NYC after the South, so you can't make me leave for anything less than another large city. I'm clinging to the shitshow I missed during my upbringing, dammit!

How close to the end (of the cycle) is everyone? I only applied in January but want this to be over.

Not at all. I've heard back from 3 schools, I applied to at least 15. Also applied in early January. I want it to be over too - like can I just wake up in two months and know where I am going? Thanks! Lol.

Waiting on HYS but 95% sure I'll be at Michigan regardless.

Another member of the tribe (lol) checking in. Only applied to H/S/C/N. Might send out Y before month-end. An answer from at least ONE school would make me so much less anxious than I am now. I honestly can't think of a time I've so obsessively waited for an answer from a school. I applied in November but only started wigging out in the past few weeks as apps closed and people started getting acceptances. How are you guys holding up?

^^^same. For some reason Y's deadline being extended made me more anxious for no reason??? It has no impact on me, I'm just all nerves.

The Supreme Court remanded Gloucester to the Fourth Circuit because of Trump. Here's to hoping the Fourth Circuit doesn't take rescinding of guidance as an endorsement for the opposite.

Right??? I thought it was kind of strange that they would send it back, since the defense of trans* restroom rights is generally through Title IX, not Obama's instructions to schools. Also--lack of protection means...discrimination? Pretty sure that logic wouldn't fly on the LSAT.

It indeed is strange, especially as you pointed out re Title IX.

Every day of this administration my desire to fight for civil rights intensifies, especially when they come after my little LGBTQ brothers/sisters/siblings.

Oh hello

Hello, hello. I've been expecting you.

I forgot men liking men was diverse.

Are there any SEO-type programs for non-URM gays? Investigating whether there's a way for me to build my resume and earn some cash this summer before law school.

Not that I know of.
We can apply to diversity 1L SA's though.

I'll keep that in mind. Is there a particular program for that or would it vary from school to school?

It would vary firm to firm, not school to school.

I cannot thank you enough for making this pun.
