To be fair, “legal” isn’t limited to litigation; it also includes due diligence work. Also, “piercing the veil” refers to corporate law, where you “pierce” the personhood of the corporation to reach the individual shareholders, not to attorney-client privilege.

He is the victim of a tragedy. He is not punishing an unpleasant person; he is encouraging activism. You cannot fairly characterize his motives as settling a score, especially given that his aim is gun control policy.

I didn’t make an assumption; I read her account of how she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Mental health treatment in both the UK and the US is fraught with issues, unless you’re dealing with institutions like McLean Hospital. If you’re trying to walk back you’re original words, then I have no idea what you were…

She’s had multiple, competing diagnoses, including BPD. There is also a difference, as you know, between multiple treatments versus repeated diagnoses, a distinction lost on patients and news media. There is also a difference between a quick clinical assessment, especially one made during crisis, versus a full…

I have an issue with it because she presents a complex psychiatric picture prone to misdiagnosis. Given that treatment protocol is dictated by diagnosis, it’s likely appropriate to have a full psychiatric workup done. I thought that was obvious.

“But she should accept the diagnosis that was given to her is she’s ever gonna get better.” No. As someone who works in the mental health field, you already know how problematic this sentence is, so I’m not going to bother parsing it.

Honestly, selfishness is not recognized as any kind of hallmark feature of bipolar disorder. Bipolar disorder refers to the mood states - depressive and elevated. Maybe your confusing this with BPD - borderline personality disorder?

I must have missed it when the NRA advocated for gay marriage under the Equal Protection Clause of the 14 Amendment. Or for protecting civilians’ 4th amendment rights from search and seizure against the Patriot Act, FISA courts, CIA and NSA data collection. Or when the government stops entitlement benefits in…

She’s freaking out!

The Supreme Court has already ruled a ban on handguns unconstitutional in DC v Heller

1. What reasons stated

What are you talking about? You stated that, “Uni’s should not be involved this is a crime and the real police and DA should be investigating.” These are totally separate, parallel systems. The fact that police are involved has no bearing on Title IX cases.

This chestnut again? Universities are not imposing criminal penalties, investigating themselves, nor pushing a desired outcome. They provide something that the police and judicial system cannot - protection from their attacking on campus.

How about you place you sympathy with the person who was harmed - the mother whose pet was murdered by a flight attendant in front of her two children?

I think the issue is that she’s messed up her face too much at this point. It’s not noticeable in photographs, but whenever she speaks, her face looks botched. It tanked Meg Ryan’s career. Kidman couldn’t launch a comeback until she started reversing whatever she did to her face a decade or so ago. Also, Lohan is just…

Can we just get over the, “Lindsay Lohan was so talented” schtick already? She’s the Timberlake of actresses. She was wooden as a child actress going all the way back to Parent Trap. Compare her to Haley Joel Osment, either of Fannings, or the entire cast of Stranger Things. If anything, Stone demonstrates in Easy A…

She was always wooden. I remember as a kid watching her in the remake of Parent Trap and thinking she was mediocre. I also came out of the theater saying she was the weakest part of Mean Girls. Literally every other character in that movie pops.

AKA All Jews. My entire congregation goes to the same terrible Chinese restaurant and cheap movie theater on the North Shore of Boston.

Ted Kennedy was amazing. I legit teared up when I found out he was dying. My workplace (the MA appeals court) was genuinely in mourning. He did amazing things for this country.
