Ok. No more jokes.
I decided this dude was a dick last week when you posted that video of him being an asshole to the towel guy. Like, that’s the kind of shit that I really judge people for. Why be a dick to somebody who is just doing their job? And well, I might add (he needed a towel!). He was just offering him a towel. So nah, fuck…
General admission is the absolute fucking worst for any in demand event. The fucking worse. It just leads to lining up a million hours before the thing starts, people trying to find ways to jump the line, people arguing about line jumping, and people fighting about whether saving spots in line is ok.
Came here to say exactly this. It’s actually kind of...well, exciting isn’t exactly the right word, but super interesting that this kind of case finally involves a victim who doesn’t need the settlement money. Not only are the offers usually low-balled, but they also typically make it so no one has to admit any…
I wonder, is that something she was told by a friend or someone “just trying to be helpful” by giving seemingly pragmatic or practical advice. You often hear that type of thing: “you should get a cleaner haircut before that interview” “you shouldn’t wear THAT dress, you should wear THIS dress”.
You didn’t take the four minutes to re-read it before you published it? Half of the words aren’t even yours.

My guess is that there’s both a compulsory murder charge and a degree of difficulty murder charge for each person.
I don’t have a horse in this race, but from my experience New Orleans is a waaaaay better place to spend a weekend. Atlanta is like most other U.S. cities: some buildings, traffic, and an airport. That’s about it.
My thesis advisor loved Murakami and it wasn’t an uncommon viewpoint in academia. Based on his awards he’s about as serious lit as you can get at this point.
“Well you see son, some people are fans of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but many, many more people are NOT fans of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.”
It is yet another form of projection. If they ran a search engine, they would associate “liberal” and “socialism” with the worst things they can imagine. So they assume that Google (which is of “The Left,” I guess?) is doing the same.
GOOGLE. TAGGED. THAT. LION. AS. MAGA.
“Recreated” is a hell of a euphemism for stole. The Google-blaming was a nice touch though.
The point is not necessarily to win, but to intimidate and incur enough legal costs that it becomes more economical to pull the story in question. It happens *all the time.*
The stupid thing is that Twitter wasn’t his undoing, it was the email he sent.
So to recap, Mr. “Our Society is Collapsing Because Free Speech on College Campuses is Being Threatened by Snowflakes!” is trying to get a media professor fired for a bit of criticism delivered as a harmless, pithy joke.
