UT alumna here. I’m aghast at this new law. Some of those classrooms are huge, and you’re in the mix with all kinds of other students. People get in fistfights on campus over who had the right-of-way on their bike. (I saw this happen myself during my time on the 40 Acres.) Imagine if one of the cyclists were packing…

A thing of beauty is a joy forever. Hook ‘em! All the livelong day!

I met Shasta once—I was a high school band nerd and had aspirations of being in the Longhorn Band in college. So I got to work the sideline crew for LHB at the Houston game. Shasta must have been drugged out of her gourd. She walked the sidelines following her wagon. Like, fixated on it, just walking behind it.…

I used to be a runner, albeit a casual one. Now I’m in my late 40s and wanted to take up running for fitness again.

There’s no way McCarthy wrote that quoted statement. It’s actual, grammatical English. Maybe someone else wrote it while he was visiting Hungria.

Your lips to god’s ear

Let’s keep perspective here. This is the same state that is closing 31 DMV locations, citing funding. This disproportionately affects people of color, as the DMVs are in predominantly African-American counties.

OK, fair enough. That makes sense. Thanks for illuminating me.

I’m not sure why Jezebel or io9 are in the mix here? Different sites that have different target audiences...audiences that overlap...?

I read something about this in Bob Loblaw’s Law Blog.

Also, my tax dollars go to make weapons of mass destruction. I am a pacifist. So where do I go to get THAT investigated?

I donated on behalf of Congressional Republicans. Garbage people.

I’m an attorney and this just fucking horrifies me. In law school we read about cases of “self help,” or what laypeople would call vigilantism. Revenge. Taking the law into your own hands.

As a defense attorney, I do not blame the guy for withdrawing. We attorneys can take a lot. Our clients can hate us, they can have a pile of shit case and expect us to make gold out of it, they can disclose the most lurid and horrible things (but not the intent to commit a new crime; we gotta report that). We keep a…

I almost choked on my granola. HAHAHA

I thought it was miraculous. I have large pores and very oily skin. The first thing I noticed was not blotting my face 10x per day. I hope you have good results!

I’m 49 and have battled adult acne for nearly 20 years. A couple of years ago I changed dermatologists and the new gal immediately took me off the antibiotics (BECAUSE MY EARS ARE BLUE) and put me on spironolactone, which is a blood pressure medication! It’s a very old med, so its side effects are well documented, and…

Yes, I came here to make this comment. Takes one to know one, SEC homer dickbag garbage person. Ugh.

I just donated $100 to Planned Parenthood and posted a huge rant on FB. Fuck these guys.

Congratulations, Mark, on your beautiful wedding to the man you love. Your article is thought-provoking and well-written. I sat at my desk ignoring all the lawyer shit I need to do so I could read the whole thing. I appreciate your nuanced approach to the whole issue.
