I’ve got a similar-ish story. I remember parts of the night, but not all, and I know I was definitely too drunk to consent. Except, I vividly remember having the internal debate with myself about whether I was gonna go home with the guy or not and very vividly remember telling myself “why the fuck not?”.

McCain’s more complicated than that actually! Yes, he was born in the Canal Zone to two American parents, but it wasn’t until 1937 that children born to US parents in the Canal Zone were automatically conferred US citizenship. And McCain was born in 1936, so there’s an argument to be made that he wasn’t a natural born…

I think Diana probably has to do with Charles being the heir to the throne. Andrew wasn’t the heir and William is currently second in line so Sarah and Kate got to be duchesses instead of princesses.

I relate to this. I went to New York in April and it was the first time I’d been in years. It was also the first time I didn’t hate it or find it overwhelming. Probably helped that it was gorgeous weather and I was there for Hamilton. But mostly, I think I just didn’t try to do too much and just wanted to enjoy and…

I love her. And I regret that it never occurred to me to take one of her classes when I was at VT.

It did. But the Cosby story broke a couple times before it got any traction, so Singer and his actions could come back around and maybe stick this time.

Well, obviously I’m wrong - though it does seem there are states where SOL for civil suits for sexual assault don’t exist or are longer than for criminal suits, because that came in to play for Bill Cosby, too.

Statutes of limitation are for criminal cases, and definitely vary by state or country. I think most of the lawsuits against Weinstein are civil suits and are not subject to SOL.

Puerto Rico doesn’t want him to visit, because it’s going to result in shutting down the airport for at least 4 hours, so that’s a minimum of four hours during which supplies cannot arrive or be distributed from the airport.

There was an incident not long before the one you talk about where a mentally disabled black teenager was abused by white teenagers. It didn’t get nearly the national press as the one you talk about.

I don’t think they knew him. In the extended video, you can hear the one cop who very condescendingly tried to explain why she was wrong says that they need to find out who the guy is, if he has a Utah license, etc. And then the cop wearing the camera goes to the trunk to get the guys name so he can run him. So it…

I especially enjoy this comparison since someone in the comments on the Kim as Jackie O article said that she just needed some leopard print and she’d be Peggy Bundy.

So do I, but I don’t see anything wrong with saying it’s DC area.

As an actual Centennial graduate, I’ll say that I have no problem with it being described as a DC area school. Because it is, even if calling it a Baltimore area school might be more accurate.

It’s both. An awful lot of people from there commute to DC.

I don’t know if Maryland would have seceded if Lincoln hadn’t suspended habeas corpus, but it would have been close. And the central part of the state, where Baltimore and the DC suburbs are was the pro-confederacy part of the state.

One of the six women who was on NPR said that it was kind of like he was trying to set up a group date from the bachelor and he thought that he’d be able to pick one of them and she’d be happy she got picked. But they decided they weren’t interested.

My three indoor cats who in the last six months have presented me with at least half a dozen mice, one snake, one squirrel  and innumerable dead insects would like to inform you that they get plenty of hunting done inside.

I would guess that a big reason why Sosa isn’t currently working in baseball is his command of English. IIRC, he’s got a pretty heavy accent, and while there are a lot of Spanish speaking players, there’s also a bias against them, as evidenced by the comments Mike Schmidt made not too long ago about how Sp tnish…

I’m sorry for your loss. I lost my dad almost two years ago and it still hurts at times.
