There’s a politics bowl for this conversation

likefunny

And sure there are political bowls, but like Associate 2 said, Harris puts us on the map and I thought it would be relevant in this group. And I didn't think I needed to add so much context for a simple question...

I’d love to hear the opinions on this in this bowl. Thank you for seeking engagement on this topic!

With Harris, so many attorneys of color are finally seeing themselves represented at leadership levels. It changes everything.

Anyone else here realized they have some alcohol moderation issues? I graduated college within the past 1.5 yrs and my friends are still in the heavy weekend drinking phase.

I only drink about 2 times a week, but it’s the volume of drinks that’s the issue. I’m not ready to quit - just cut down a lot! Tips/advice appreciated! TIA :)

Okay so I’m a newly licensed attorney in a very conservative part of TX.
