Well, I certainly wouldn’t want us succumbing to the caprice of man.

I don’t know. Seems like a better corollary would be background checks before you get to have your dick.

Couch not comfortable.

The problem is he still looks like he did in latter-day Growing Pains. His face hasn’t caught up with his age - a true case of Vincent Adultman, if ever I saw one. Like, good job fighting off the bear, Leo, but I can totally see your broom-hand.

“Ted Cruz” is the monster mothers threaten misbehaving children with. “if you don’t clean your room, Ted Cruz will find you in the night,” they say.

It’s the attention to detail - like the inclusion of the knapsack - that really sells it.

Then I’m afraid that’s all the Hamilton you get this year.

Sorry, if you want to learn about Hamilton, you can only see the play or wait til someone else writes about him.

It’s bad enough that Ted Cruz happened. Let’s not relive the process.

Done. Now what? Still offended.

Right. But her testimony also ended with her reluctantly acknowledging to Avery’s lawyer that she couldn’t be absolutely certain they weren’t moved.

During testimony, the people who worked on the bones said they were given the bones in a box instead of being allowed to start with a grid where they were found (which would tell them whether the remains had been moved). Since they could not (and since bones were also found in other locations) whether that was where…

I mean, that’s literally the defense lawyer’s job. They can get into trouble if they are found not to have worked for their client’s best interest. That’s why that smirking mini-douche was ultimately removed from Dassey’s defense.

It was pretty bro-centric, but it was also written by a guy.

“I’m just telling you what my childhood was like. Not my childhood, but someone else’s.”

It would be great if, in subsequent articles, they could stop pretending that anything the interrogators fed to Dassey counts as evidence of fuckall, much less a detailed account.

I get that. But no one, no matter how dickish or unpleasant, should be put away for something they didn’t do. I happen to feel bad about that.

Not entirely. No one in the sheriff’s department or prosecution in this farce were screwed over.

Not only did he plead no contest and serve time for that crime, he also served 18 years for another crime he didn’t commit and now 10 years for another that he (likely) should not have been convicted for. So, I guess I’m asking, how many years does he have to serve in total for the cat before you start to feel bad…

True. But even a small amount of blood spatter (and brain matter if it went completely through the skull) would have required Avery to clean around the bullet but leave the bullet where it was - in order to have no blood spatter whatsoever.
