As a lawyer who barely looked at this, I have to agree. I mean, she should have just settled it and paid him. 300 grand for her is like me giving the guy 100 bucks. Big deal. But I don’t see her clearly at fault. His games are suspect, and he knew who she was. I think they accidentally collided into each other and saw…

Yes. Apparently she did when she was a teenager. From what I understand from what she’s posted in the past, her parents told her that her genitals looked abnormal because they thought it looked too big, so she became convinced that something was wrong. She went to numerous surgeons to have the surgery, and they all ref…

She is a very disturbed woman. I was unfortunate enough to be aware of what she was posting when the whole plaster cast blew up. She also sent DM’s to various women participating in the discussion, asking them to send her pictures of their genitals and asked them to pose it in a particular way so she could point out…

I’m so confused by Jezebel’s insistence that Gwyneth must be at fault because she’s a rich white woman. If we’re using identity as a metric for credibility, he’s...a rich white man? And based on the evidence given so far, it’s equally plausible that he’s ambulance chasing for cash. This is just one example of the…

Also, if she wasn’t rich and famous, this dude wouldn’t even be bothering

“it’s funny how it’s just assumed that SHE is lying and at fault here (because she’s...famous?”

From what I loosely understand, there are a number of things that work against the plaintiff: (1) it appears that he was the uphill skier (possibly the most important fact), (2) his testimony contradicts the ski instructor’s testimony (who is much more likely to be neutral), (3) he began by asking for an obscene…

Yeah as much as I’m enjoying her defense (she had to go to the spaaaaaa!), I’m seeing two possibilities here:

When there are 2 rich assholes at play here, it’s funny how it’s just assumed that SHE is lying and at fault here (because she’s...famous?). For whatever reason, I believe her (usually, I find her to be ridiculous and borderline dangerous with her GOOP nonsense and she doesn’t ever see how privileged she comes off,…

Nah f that... for as much of a smug asshole as she can be, you don’t sue somebody for colliding with them on the slopes unless they were doing something really f*ed up. Next thing ya know, people will be suing other people in a mosh pit cuz they got an ouchie at a concert.

The punchline about getting an affluent white woman to own up to anything would have landed a lot better if it seemed like Paltrow was at fault.

Or maybe, just MAYBE, he actually is at fault here? There isn’t much to go on, and chat messages uncovered during discovery directly confirm that unlike their sworn testimony, Sanderson and the only eyewitness (who knows him) were ABSOLUTELY aware that Paltrow was the other party in the crash at the time it happened.

Every republican “policy” can be boiled down to one thing.

I admire your willingness to believe it will be a problem for him, but anyone even remotely predisposed to voting for him won’t even remotely give a shit. 

This will get him votes from the GOP base. I wouldn’t be surprised if he leverages this in a debate against Trump.

I’m honestly happy we seem to have entered an era where it is a-ok to admit you are leaving your position because you are burnt the fuck out... Jacinda Erden, Nicola Sturgeon, and now Law Roach. Sure. If a position has become soul crushing, getting out (when you can) is often the right course of action.

Right? It’s as if we might, like, still live in a society where women and men aren’t equal. 

“That sort of loss hurts everyone.” Wow, that inandofitself puts A LOT of presurre on him and anyone else that chooses to follow. No wonder he retired. The weight!

Am I the only one who’s starting to get “Deep Thoughts, with Jack Handy” vibes off Crystal?

I mean this WAS my first worried thought.
