Curious. With all these D&I initiatives... providing a plethora of resources... eg, LGBTQ conferences, recruiting channels, etc... I’m wondering, wat if you haven’t come out? Do those who haven’t come out deserve access to those resources??

Of course yes! You need a community to talk with and coming out is never easy.

Hi! Anyone have any recommendations for the best sites or platforms to resell clothes? Some are gently used and some are brand new.

I a mid-level litigator and have an offer at a FAANG, however, I still have roughly $230,000 in student debt. If I can delay my start until June, I will receive the newest round of special bonuses and can make a lump sum payment of ~$50,000 (all principal with the 0%). If I decline the offer and stay with my firm, I can make another $50,000 payment at the end of the year. I ultimately want to be in house, preferably in tech. Would I be crazy to decline to use the bonuses to make big chunk pmnts?
