By law ALL cell phones must be able call 911 no matter the service situation. She called 911 because that’s the only thing her phone could call without carrier service. Its a safety thing. However, we only have so many competent professionals to answer the 911 calls and clogging up the lines with nonsense complaints…

She could be, but there’s no evidence here to suggest that she is mentally ill.
Not all selfish, entitled people are mentally ill. Some are just selfish, entitled, and incredibly stupid.

I’m glad someone said this. I know that our criminal justice system is incredibly broken and I think that we truly do criminalize somethings that shouldn’t be...but how do you hold someone accountable for this?

It’s difficult to overstate how much this bullshit completely goes against that, not to mention how completely fucking unearned…

Threatening to sue at the first sign of criticism is truly the sign of a great artist.
Sigh. No one gets performance art.
This statue was always a publicity stunt, and the fact that people bought into it as such a “powerful pro women” message was so cringey when it was simply an advertisement.
okay, so I know absolutely nothing about art law, but I do have a degree in art history and I gotta say, were these idiots unaware at the start that most famous artists who sculpt in bronze end up with copies and copies of their most famous works, given how the medium works in production (cire perdue--casting from wax)…
Jeans have a body type and cut requirement that’s not very accessible for everyone. Adding lycra to them has helped, but there’s still a large part of humanity that won’t look as good as a small part of humanity.
