It’s there because I put it there.

This ad is under the article about the Depp-Heard divorce (on my end anyway), and I find it extremely appropriate.

But she literally got handcuffed for trying to talk over the judge.

He’s in a room full of lawyers. And sometimes you need to talk over that judge, if only to demand your rights as a potential defendant. Moreover, there is almost always an Administrative Judge who oversees the other judges.

And when the judge won’t let you get past “Your Honor, if....”???

As an attorney, the method for bench bullies I was always taught was to say, “You’re Honor, if you’re going to hold me in contempt, I demand that the charges against me be particularized on the record as proscribed in the Judicial Canon, that a hearing be set on notice of no fewer than thirty days as due process…

Yes. Whenever someone is like “Ugh, do they have to shove it in our faces?” I’m like “You mean the same way straight couples hold hands etc in public?”

“I mean do they have to do it in public”

Good that he is gone, but not good that the fact that the department didn’t sustain the complaint against him means he probably retired with full benefits and without any sort of punishment for this bullshit behavior.

Wait, was this the same couple who couldn’t return home because of this? I remember reading how one of them lost their job because they had to stay there or keep going back. Or am I confusing it with another case?

It sounds like it suffers from the same thing a lot of fantasy suffers from, layers and layers and layers of meaningless crap piled on top of its self in the name of “world building.”

I get where you’re going and I don’t necessarily disagree with all of it. But I do think this newfound fad of saying things are bad because they take themselves “too seriously” is just... Harmful, at best. Not only because it permeates this cultural acceptance that “Serious things are bad”, but also because it implies…

Define viable? Sanders often polls higher than Clinton in a matchup against Trump. Unless you have a diffirent definition of “viable” then the one I have?

Liberal-Democrat intending on hopefully voting for Sanders here:

So if she’s disliked simply because she’s a woman, then how can you have any honest discussion about the numerous reasons she shouldn’t be President? At the end of the day, you can dismiss all arguments as “Well of course they’d say that, she’s a woman”. It can’t possibly be because of her handling of this email…

Wouldn’t the more helpful thing be to reduce the drinking age to 18? That is something that has actually been proven to lower binge drinking. No college kid is going to care about an alcohol intervention program.

“black-and-white moralism with psychologically disordered eating”

Some day when you’re bored, go read the “30 Bananas a Day” discussion board, on which people who have pursued a profoundly inadvisable diet pose questions like “why are my fingernails falling out” and “why won’t this sore heal.”
