...it’s evident that the data “suggests that the cause has to be systemic, that there’s some root cause that’s causing adverse health across many different dimensions for working-age adults.”

Our constitution does not allow for cruel and unusual punishment. If it did, I have to say, I might allow what he did to all of these beautiful souls—these young women in their childhood—I would allow someone or many people to do to him what he did to others.

Nassar’s attorneys filed an appeal of the sentence, claiming it should be thrown out based on what it called Judge Aquilina’s “bias” against Nassar

 
As multiple current and former employees who wish to remain anonymous told Jezebel, several Fader staffers resigned following the initial report; others chose to avoid the office after a series of tense meetings with management.

Life is full of disappointments, and the vast majority of them are monetizable.

The “N in the woodpile” expressions could be updated as “caterpillar in the salad” - something you very much want to avoid, hidden in something beneficial and useful. It basically means “What’s the catch?”.

I feel a wee bit of sympathy for Charles over the infidelity. He was doing what royal men have done for millenia; marrying a suitable young virgin to breed his heirs, while maintaining a mistress for his entertainment.

Was Charlie’s Angels ever really for women though? I thought the whole point was that it was super male gazey.

I honestly think the worst thing you could do to the Trumps is...just dump them in prison and treat them like everyone else.

...perhaps stringing (his bloated corpse) up so that everyone could take turns beating it like a piñata...

“One of the first things you realize as an adult is that no one but sociopaths drink milk after the age of 13,”
