No, you swear an oath to answer honestly during the jury selection process. The lawyers will ask if you have any moral or ethical concerns that would prevent you from convicting the accused - ie you would be willing to engage in jury nullification. If you say no, but you actually do intend to nullify, then you lied under oath and could be found guilty of perjury at that point.

Sure, whatever, but lying under oath during the jury selection process is a crime called perjury. Morale correctness aside, I’m just trying to keep folks out of jail my dude.

No, they usually ask something like “Do you have any personal beliefs that would prevent you from returning a guilty verdict involved with this type of crime?” - seriously yall, this shit isn’t hard to look up and is usually posted right alongside explanations for what jury nullification is. Frankly, I doubt anyone reading this is rich enough to pull the “you didn’t specifically ask about jury nullification therefore I technically did not commit perjury”-card.

Now you’re asking them to commit perjury - which is also bad. (In case anyone reads this and decides to try their best poker face)

If you have to ask someone else, then you probably won’t finish, and if you do, it will suck. Read some recently published papers, see what looks interesting to you, then check out the “future research” section that many of them will have.

Thanks man! I appreciate the advice and will absolutely keep it in mind. I’m happy to know that your life is moving in a good direction too. It helps remind me that it is possible and that I’m not alone. Happy new year!

Weirdly same boat. Known the girl for about 2 years, but just started dating about a month ago. I love her so much! Prior to her, no 3rd dates in about 10 years.
The big difference is that I live in my mom’s basement and she is the hoarder, and her stuff invaded my space. I started therapy and have begun making plans to be moved out by February, hopefully in an apartment much closer to work to boot! In the meantime, almost all of her stuff is out of my current bedroom and I’ve moved furniture around to be more functional for me.
I’ll also throw out going back on OCD meds, and smoking pot for the first time in my 29 years of living to manage panic attacks. Highly effective, and basically no side effects.
