Even if this person was a friend of mine, my response to this story would be “So... you went to a thrift store last week?  That’s your big news?”

This is really a 1000 word story about how your friend got a bland vintage dress of unknown provenance at a vintage shop, is gender liquid but wore a dress, and—to top it all off—you can’t even see the dress in the photos?

All that overthinking just to end up wearing a boring and basic black strapless dress and what looks like black pumps I’d wear to the office? 

Of course billionaires are bad people.

Because the mega rich have a mind set that every one is trying to take their hoard of gold.  Pesky hobbits.  Funny how the mega rich are overwhelmingly republican....while self proclaimed christians are republican....seeing as how the people who fund the party are praying to the golden calf.

You don’t get to be a billionaire by being a decent or reasonable person. Paraphrasing the beginning of a bit I heard a comedian do on, IIRC, Warren Buffett: “I mean, we can all agree billionaires are pyschopaths. Because a billionaire is someone who at some point had $750 million, and was just sitting there like…

I mean, rich people are delusional, and frequently mistake their wealth for fame/importance.

I’m a fourth-generation native of Nashville (though I don’t live there now, but my whole family does and I visit 3-4 times a year) and I had never heard of this woman until these Jezebel articles.

What I took from this is that her objection to alimony was not the financial aspect of it, rather that if she went that route, there would be ongoing publicly available hearings about it. She would have preferred to be able to keep the home that she created, but she wasn’t interested in having her divorce play out…

Yeah, this is not a story about a woman who had to, like, sell her jewelry to escape a spouse like the headline implies it is.

I mean, none of that sounds uncommon for what happens to shared property in a divorce. If the genders were reversed, we wouldn’t see any problem with a lesser-earning woman making a claim for all or part of a marital asset like the house. The law pretty much says that it doesn’t matter if one spouse makes the money…

Goddammit, since we can’t have Megyn Kelly Today, Today with Bobby Finger, at least bring back Shade Court.

How many do we need to make a quorum here? Will three do?

It is known.

> The shade was pretty obvious,

Then it ain’t shade. Bring back shade court and the Honorable Judge Kara Brown.

I think it’d be easier to be sympathetic here if he just owned up to what he did. What’s all that about cancel culture? Why does he talk so much about the imbalance of power but stop short of anything that might get him in real trouble? The thing he claims to be doing - “own his mistakes, take accountability”? He…

Very little sympathy.

ok, well. get therapy and make restitution to the people you’ve hurt.

The part he doesn’t want to say is that abusers like the pastor should face some kind of fall out, but since he’s an abuser too he doesn’t want to back that too hard. 🙃

I agree with the article, but you have to wonder whether they know who Jackie Kennedy was married to/sister-in-law of. Maybe this is a sign that deep beneath Ron DeSantis’s cold evil heart lurks the progressivism of a civil rights crusad-
