Having read the the New York Times article, I am confused about how someone with a history of abusive behavior could be deemed “a suitable and qualified person” to act as conservator for one of his past victims, and disgusted that that appears to be what happened. And that’s leaving out the fact that—at most—Jamie…

On the one hand, I kinda sorta understand putting a parent as a conservator; I think a number of people would be okay with that or even benefit from that arrangement. But not in this case, or every case. If she actively opposes a family member being a conservator, it should be an option that it goes to an independent…

Ms. Spears seems like she could live with the notion of a conservatorship if only her father were removed from any control. Why the courts continue to assume he has her best interest, in the face of opposing documentation, is baffling.

Jamie is truly a piece of shitty work. Anyone know what he did before he could leech off his daughter’s life? How is it he hasn’t also been so public in fucking up the two other kids ... or are they Stockholmed and brainwashed enough to comply?

What floors me here is that there was never goal or process for her to get more control of her life.  She was in a really terrible place and needed the conservatorship at the time, but she should have had a path to earn more control over her life.  She should also at anytime be able to veto the person who is…

Team Britney man should never control a woman’s money.  If he wants to control money he should earn his own

“Betrothed.”  I do not think that word means what Megan thinks it means.

I think “poorly dressed” would suffice here. 

I’m more confused as to why these two are meeting the French president in the first place. 

Watching The Crown has been somewhat of a guilty pleasure for me, what with all of the humanizing of the lizard-people and all.  

“It’s for the best for everybody. And, by ‘everybody,’ I mean myself.”

I think “protecting Croucher’s feelings” isn’t the correct rationale to assign to Left Bank and the C-suite.

You might want to revisit your plan. If your ashes are blasted into space, they won’t be able to mix with clouds. And if they did happen to reenter the atmosphere somehow, they would likely burn up before they could.

These conservative catholics and their evangelical allies of convenience (they both think the other is going to hell, regardless of abortion) are missing something pretty significant.

They are declaring it a sin to not activity force another person to NOT sin. They are declaring it is a moral duty to do everything you…

In the 70's the Catholic church had an official position on abortion: while they don’t exactly like it, there is no biblical basis for being against it. Not that there’s nothing in the bible that applies, but that the verses that do strongly suggest it’s fine. The bible has not since been updated. The only reason the…

Whoa whoa whoa.. hold up just a second..

The Catholic Church was involved in operating Indigenous residential schools in Canada, one of which had a mass grave of 215 children. Maybe, just maybe, there are more important things for them to consider.

How do we get rid of her? Or banish her to Fox or something?

Jesus on abortion: “...”
