That’s the fun part, on paper he has very good credentials. Yale undergrad, Harvard Law, time served in military, U.S. Attorney for Florida. [the GITMO stuff is hard to parse since “forced feeding” detainees seems harsh but we do the same with prisoners here with IV bags when they refuse to eat)

Sir or Madame, I don’t want you to. Never asked you to. Because you’ll be running for the border too by that time. Because he’ll take a right away you won’t like.

I had the same thought. I could think of a couple of Antiochs off the top of my head. I did not even know there was one in California. But I knew of the ones in Ohio, Illinois, and Michigan. I assume there are more. A simple “CA” in the lede after Antioch would have solved the problem.

Kinda crazy that GMG, or whatever they’re called now, can’t be bothered to moderate their own comments anymore.

“Why It Matters If He Strangled Her” is a weird header choice. Seems pretty self-evident.

Are we in the post-Me Too era now then? I suppose pushback is inevitable but I honestly did not think we’d go back to a time when some Disney movies were important enough to manipulate society and a domestic violence victim into accepting a violent sociopath as a charming leading man. Of course, I’m not exactly…

The real question is how many other people have Kat Dennings’ face?

Wasn’t this an episode of Scrubs? Is the man Richard Kind? 

I only mention the No Child Left Behind as a provision schools are using to place kids with limited forms of “differences” within classrooms. Without proper funding and knowing the number of kids within the school system that are in need of an “Aide”, it’s really hard to draw a conclusion about why the parents were…

His parents explained in a statement that the gun was a legal purchase of the boy’s mother and secured in the home.

Oh, I meant it was weird that the parents were the ones acting as his aids. From the teacher I heard from on this, it’s usually considered poor practice to not have another support person aid the child if they need constant individual attention (as opposed to more limited class room aiding).

Since we don’t know the nature of the disability, whether emotional or intellectual (leaving physical off the table since the kids actions limit that option), mainstreaming of children has become more common since “No Child Left Behind”. The parents might have been there as a measure due to understaffing or because…

It already has, in these comment threads, just above.

I like that JLC calling her Oscar “they/them” is ultimately just some silly fun, but it will probably make some conservative nutjob out their indescribably angry.

No. The Root does not employ real journalists.

Was Jesus’ brother James anti-Christian? TheRoot investigates.  

Since this article seems to like giving credentials to his surviving family members, of trivia interest is their mom, Lesley Vogel, did one soap for a brief time, the mostly forgotten Loving, where he character was married to Bryan Cranston’s.

“Born September 25, 1994, in Palisades, New York, to former soap opera actor Lesley Vogel and lieutenant firefighter Alan “Skip” Panettiere, he made his acting debut in the year 2000.”
