If we believe Ethan Couch to be beyond redemption, it’s first worth asking who deserves it, what it means, and whether we even have a system capable of accomplishing such a thing.

It’s been seven years, and I still, to this day, have trouble wrapping my head around the thought process that came up with 4 dead bodies=10 years probation. I mean, I understand the variables, x=rich and powerful parents, y=Texas, and z=being so white that his little anus mouth is being absorbed by the glow of his…

Maybe a few civil lawsuits to drain his and parent’s bank accounts along with the punishment of not being affluent and working as maid and/or care taker for his victims and/or families would change his outlook.

If you knew how many times I had the argument with people who consider themselves more politically savvy than myself that SCOTUS matters. If I had a button to slam right now that resulted in every self important mansplainer who had the nerve to call me a single issue voter in 2016 getting a hard slap to the face. With…

Would have been better to not be stuck with a conservative SCOTUS in the first place. So good job Repugs, disgruntled 3rd party voters and people who abstained from voting. This is on YOU. 

I’d take the $1500 bonus and fly coach. But my employer wants me to be a functional human when I land, so the expensive nap is worth it for them.

Exactly. This is a dumb complaint and the people who think it’s just about “greed” or something are not thinking it through.

Collin Peterson of MN is a Blue Dog Dem. Tell me more about how it’s so important to keep backing these shitty anti choice Dems for that all important majority in the chamber.

Fuck every asshole that tells me I have to sacrifice my uterus for the greater good of your personal slice of “heaven” in a red state. For the…

Truly an honest question:

I live in Wyoming...writing and calling ANY of my reps doesn’t do SHIT. Cheney, Enzi, and Barrasso do not care what their constituents think if they’re not donors, oil and gas/minerals extraction industry folks, republican. THEY DO NOT CARE. You get a boilerplate letter saying “Thank you for your interest in [this…

You can see this actually happen when MLB teams offer tickets at a major discount and the season ticket holders grouse that it devalues their seat.

Fewer people will pay for the higher class, or use miles/cash to request an upgrade, if they know there’s a chance they could get it for free. That appears to be the airlines’ rationale.

I said it last week on the Murkowski post, I’ll repeat it here:

You’ve never been curious a day in your life, li’l biscuit.

They were all fired...

Losing your career over hobby Nazism? You hate love to see it.

I have a friend who works for the media company that actually owns the rights to the event, and it’s been a shitshow for years dealing with the city over this. There is exactly zero reason this couldn’t be held in Centennial Park, especially with Underground now owned privately. Woodruff? Really? Small isolated park…

Obligatory

From what I know, Starbucks has at least four sizes. And many employers impose requirements to clarify orders on their employees in such cases because it’s possible to give a customer something they weren’t expecting if the employee simply assumes what it is they want. People who work in customer service deal with a…

If there are three cup sizes, and the person taking the order can’t figure out how “small”, “medium” or “large” corresponds to their naming convention, then their compulsory education failed them.
