And that dickbag cop made about $83K on the taxpayer dime while everybody did everything they could to 1) destroy evidence (yes, this happened — third-party security camera footage was tampered with by investigators in the hours following the incident) 2) explore every loophole they could before the damning video…

People will still riot because this charge doesn’t change anything. It shows that it’s not impossible for police officers to be held accountable, but the charge doesn’t address the fact that the police department - having seen the video - did everything in their power to make sure that justice would not be served.…

Because it took them 13 months to even bring charges, largely because the department was trying to bury the case, including trying to get this video sealed away from public view.

Those towels are perfectly hung.

I do not get Usher’s caption.

I know you put in a kind disclaimer, but, seriously, people age (if they’re lucky). Most people follow that curve. Only the rarest among us are that attractive to start with, and only the rarest among the rarest remain so 30 years later.

Probably insomuch as TROY is yours and randilynbeginagain is mine. oh...

Maybe that’s the point. Everything about this says, “I hate you, Daddy!”

Isn’t this one of the subplots in Traffic?

Eh. America is a country where people still get assaulted and harassed for being gay. Homophobia is a pretty big deal to many, many people, and not a minor inconvenience of some sort. I agree that the mother’s post could have been worse, but really, no matter how politely you put it, the basic message remains “I think…

There was absolutely no reason for her to tell him she was removing the kids from the class because he was gay. She could have just said that it wasn't going to work and that the kids wouldn't be able to attend. But she decided to insult him.

This is some ridiculous hot garbage. Her post was ridiculous and idiotic. The notion that she needs to remove her kids from his class because he is homosexual is absurd and offensive, no matter how “nice” or “polite” her words are. He has no obligation to be tactful or respectful of her in return. He would have been…

I think the comment about the doctors is a really good point, though, that the mother needs to consider. She needs to be reminded about the fact that the people around her may be gay, and that it’s naive of her to attempt to live in a gay-free bubble. And the fact that a gay person might save her child’s life is a…

So let me get this straight.

I think they gave me a shot of advil through my IV line to ‘Take the edge off’ whilst they tried to get the anesthesiologist down. Got that tiny bit of relief and little one was born in about the next 10 minutes.

Yes! Hygiene hypothesis + helminths for the win!

I wonder why it is that we (rightfully, imo) employ such scrutiny towards animal research being humane - research that can save and improve countless lives - while allowing mountains of animals to experience lives of agony for the sake of eating way more meat than is even healthy.

Animal death doesn’t especially…

As part of my training, they allowed a representative from the anti-animal research political party here in the Netherlands to give us a talk about what they do, and what they campaign about and I really liked that we were given the opportunity to have an open discussion with them. It’s so easy on the lab side of…
