They screw the pooch on many a thing. Usually not in favor of victims. Lots of times perpetrated by the CPD itself, then by protecting their own.

I mean, sure, but the CPD is super corrupt in its own right. While I think what he did was stupid and terrible, I’m not upset at this specific outcome.

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh okay but he did fake that shit

I don’t care about Jagged Little Pill. I came to say that “You Can’t Do That on Television” is one of the best TV children’s sketch shows ever.

I’ve discovered that selectively following very few humans and a lot of animals has eliminated 99% of trolldom in my timeline.

Nope but on an unrelated note, they did get a new library with a nice plaque.

Here’s why you should not feel sorry for Olivia Jade. Rich, white kids like her completely buy and sell the lie that the US is meritocracy. I will to bet she thinks she deserved to be at USC (and she has to be involved because posed for pictures for crew) and I bet she thinks this is all unfair. But Legacy admissions…

Each individual IS the arbiter of substance for them. No one owes you a duty to perform anything, but if they want to be seen a certain way, then you do have to do something to indicate you are the way you want to be seen.

It’s been a dog’s age since I listened to the first season of Serial. I remember coming away from it with two distinct impressions:

I binged the first season of Serial like everyone else, but yeah, the fan girling over Syed was appalling. Like, she legit gets excited over the things he says. She just seemed so gullible.

Look, you’re never going to convince people like this that a fetus isn’t a fully developed person who can feed themselves and get a job in 2 months if only their mamma didn’t execute them.
