Congratulations, we have a wiener!

I can’t decide whether that kid or her parents are my heroes for the day. They’re all doing everything right.

I’ve never understand how “severe impact” is calculated or applied. Isn’t 6 years in prison a “severe impact” on... anyone? It’s not like this guy is supporting anyone financially or has kids.

The thing is, they didn’t even HAVE to listen to women. There were two men that saved her, chased him off, and acted as eyewitnesses to his crime, but his welfare is still prioritized before hers. And arguably, before the welfare of his next potential victim.

You can police every aspect of your speech, you can wear the right things, you can get all the degrees and expertise, you can write the most fucking eloquent and heartbreaking courtroom statement and still there are men who will not hear you because they just don’t listen to women.

You don’t have sympathy for a man who was wrongfully imprisoned? That sounds like a you problem.

Since it’s PA, I’m surprised he didn’t get another year on his sentence for not buying the beer on the second Tuesday of the month between 12:30-4:15pm from a licensed beer distributor in a 24 or 96 pack.

Candler Felts is not to be mistaken for Chandler Delts, my Tumblr dedicated to Matthew Perry’s shoulder.

Obviously. Spreadsheets detailing the comings and goings, grainy black and white shots of them from behind bushes. Cell phone records and bank statements.

What, you don’t keep folders?!?

Except, it was more than that. It was the inevitable result of a prolonged history of domestic violence that goes far and beyond a temper tantrum. He tossed out cheating this time, when last time it was (probably) forgetting to fix the bed or forgetting to buy the beer. The reasons never matter. The infliction of…

Right? I came here to say this. Suddenly, the cops remember they have non-gun options, even when dealing with a coked-out guy with a fucking rifle. Seriously, tell me again how big Michael Brown was and how impossible it was to subdue him without multiple gunshots.

An armed white guy.

“She cheated on me...” So what?! Grow the fuck up crybaby. Once again a woman is dead cause a man threw a temper tantrum.

Funny how when a white guy tries to escape police custody he’s subdued with pepper spray and a taser instead of being shot and killed.

The Skeptic’s Guide to the Universe did this too. They have a science-history segment they do, and during one of them they said that they had gotten complaints about focusing on women too much, and then they went back and counted and found it was like 4:1 in favor of men, at which point they committed to talking about…

Reminds me of when I was in grad school (for history) surrounded by a table of men who were questioning why we study women’s history anyway. These were future historians talking, mind you, not the general public. They just didn’t get the point.

I think the same thing happens with minorities... I’ve heard “half the class was foreign students” comment, when like statistically at the school they made up of about 15% of the student body.

I think it also explains why “diversity” seems to be a low bar... like 2, or 3 minorities and people perceive the group to be…

I can see the basis for complaint. Women didn’t even exist until the 1960s, so it’s really a disservice to cover them at all. It is a history podcast, after all, and history was written by us white men.

When we exist it’s just TOO MUCH.

Dammit, the answer was exercise. I was trying to avoid that.
