If you read even half of the text transcripts, you realize what a sick fuck she is. A healthy human being with any empathy would never behave this way, and I won’t accept, “she was a teenager”... “They are selfish” or stupid or whatever... I remember being a teenager and I could have never done anything like this. …

This whole case just hit me so hard because I’ve been where Conrad was and I’m so glad I didn’t have a sick creature like Michelle as a “friend”, because I probably would’ve done the same thing. The fact that they blamed her meds for her lack of empathy too... I know it’s their job to give the best possible defense…

The fact that they’re asking to hear the definition of reasonable doubt kind of suggests to me that somebody is being obstinate beyond the confines of what is reasonable. Like they’re saying to him (probably him, anyway) that there’s a difference between lacking 100 percent certainty and having a reasonable doubt.…

He (and yes, I am using he) probably keeps admonishing them to “be rational”.

Honestly, I think it means there are one or two asshole holdouts who are making up nonsense scenarios in which consent could be obtained from a woman who was drugged (“well, before he drugged her she likely would have had sex with him because she was in his room!”). IME on a jury there is always some asshole who…

Creepy/disgusting detail #2,752 in this case: calling pills “your friends” especially in light of the fact the Hello Friend Foundation is in memory of Cosby’s murdered son.

I’ve always been self conscious of “working out while fat” and everyone says “No one cares. No one is looking at you” and then this harpy shows up and assures me that yes, they are looking and they do care. It’s like when I was a kid and embarrassed to undress in front of my pediatrician. My mom said ‘he’s a doctor!…

I got torn to shreds on the original article for mentioning that Mathers single handedly discouraged countless people from going to the gym - because I was supposedly “diminishing” the assault.

I honestly think this is one of those times where it is probably better to ignore a person’s existence all together because Dani Mathers is never going to get it.

The good news is that like all of us, Dani Mathers is destined to get older, and heavier, and wrinklier. I hope she experiences Cronenberg levels of body horror about it, though.

So Scalise’s security detail is comprised of a black man, a Hispanic man and a black, lesbian woman. I would whomever assigns the detail is trolling him.

Just think, if Scalise had his way, Griner’s wife would not have been able to immediately visit her in the hospital or inherit her estate if things had turned out even worse.

Top GOP Congressman refers to himself as “David Duke without the baggage.”

People like Scalise already have a mental gymnastics routine ready for situations like this: They’ll just label her as “one of the good ones” and never give it another thought.

Hey! Maybe this sort of thing will have a real impact on him! Maybe he’ll recover, see the error of his ways, and see the world in a whole new light, a la Scrooge, George Wallace or maybe Robert McNamara!

CUTE! Within the last year I found out how great Torrid has gotten. It’s one of my go to places these days.

I have that sweater dress! It’s from Rebel’s Torrid collection. And while I am far too old to shop there, it is one of my favourites.

Ikr? I compromise by doing this: condemning violence of any sort, but not really feeling that sorry for republicans. Obviously I want those injured to survive, I’m not a monster. But listening to republicans talk about how we need to bring back civility to politics and to Washington, when THEY ARE THE ONES that…

They call abortion murder.

For any Republicans who wonder if gun safety might actually be a bipartisan issue just now.
