I hope they put “Legal in my state.” on your tombstone, because flawless logic like that is what is going to get your jerk-ass murdered by someone you’ve harmed.

Systems of diffused responsibility encode cruelty just as they encode racism. They set it up so cruel and unusual is the accepted norm and overt acts that would result in charges aren’t required to achieve hellish treatment. We didn’t end slavery, we didn’t end racism, we didn’t end institutional cruelty, we codified…

No, he didn’t ‘just get fired for doing it’, he got fired then tried to step up and claim he did not actually do the things he got fired for. If you want us to let things go, talk to the guy who can’t deal with the truth first.

This is what I came to say. It isn’t just that the comments were similar, but they came in the same order, down to nearly identical timestamps! You can’t really look at the entire video(s) and not see a blatant copy.

This is the same woman who used a spreadsheet to find her boyfriend/husband, claimed tracking everything her baby ate and excreted on a spreadsheet made her a better parent, and made a big holier than thou to-do about how she NEVER posts anything about her daughter online (only to have it come out within hours that…

Or it means she has consistently told the truth about not wanting to ruin his life. It also means she felt no need to comply with what was essentially a liability investigation into whether the company or Hardwick had legal exposure, not an honest look into her side of the story. She was right not to hand over any…

Came to say this. I’m tired of ‘alternative’ candidates who think shooting for the brass ring of the presidency is the way to build a party.

Your list is my list, except I pulled the trigger and gave Hemsworth the top slot, but I was factoring in both Ragnarok and Infinity War. Evans didn’t get much to do at all in IW, and Hemsworth got some of the best scenes.

I’m not picky though, when something else great comes along I’m fully willing to switch things…

You don’t ‘find out of the price is negotiable’ by starting the conversation with trying to jam them on the price by knocking almost 15% off their asking price.

Also the seller never said the price was fixed, just that he wasn’t willing to haggle down that much of a difference.

I wonder what will happen to the rest of the three hour show if something goes wrong on the first jump? I mean, this is History Channel, we already know the entire show is gonna be 20 minutes of actual content with 90 minutes of commercials and 40 minutes of bumpers and recaps. Should tick off a lot of advertisers if…

Perfect story, thank you for sharing it.

I say still read them, just at an older age where you’re able to have real conversations about the broader context. Teach what parts are worth loving and what parts aren’t and how to tell the difference, because there’s going to be a lot of things like that in the world.

Things that are not happening-
This group telling people not to read her books.
Publishers not publishing her books.

It’s our history. Still out there. Just we’re no longer glorifying the bad bits and pretending they’re not that bad. Kind of like getting rid of Confederate monuments.

I get all that and agree. But if we’re actually biting into the premise of a perfect human, then we should be starting from scratch, and trying to get to a place where we have all the same capabilities but far fewer of the major flaws.

We’re not bound by the rules that evolution had to work within because of its…

Sure, but that doesn’t mean the brain needs to be up there too (which is what I was trying to get at).

How the hell do you design a ‘perfect’ human and keep things like shoulder joints and a head way up at the top of the body on a skinny neck?

Good link, thank you. I didn’t think it was her, but now I seriously doubt she’d be shitty enough to do what is said and try to cover it up with a support tweet.

No one’s trying to make her love her biological mom. However a criminal in jail for 18 years should not have contact with their victim, no matter what the victim wants, and the victim needs time to heal without possible undue influence from her kidnapper.

No one’s expecting the girl to instantly integrate into her birth mother’s family. However continued contact with her kidnapper isn’t helping her, and is probably hindering her.

Their entire relationship is premised on a criminal act and years long cover up. Allowing the victim to perpetuate a relationship and…

Are you kidding? Whenever I need a lesson in morals my first stop is an old Catholic dude with multiple divorces. They’re such good people.
