So, he was prosecuted with the wrong law, a particularly bad one at that, and Marie wants us to be mad at the court? This headline and whole article should be re-written. Marie has a point that the bad law sends a bad message, but again. This isn’t on the court.

Wasn’t her dress for Harry & Megan’s wedding similarly cut? Maybe she’s using drop waists to accentuate her bump? I'm not a fan. 

I’m at the office late cleaning up a crisis, so I think I’ll probably swing by Chipotle on the way home for something easy. Also gonna pick up Mario Odyssey. So, not a bad day, all in all.

G-A-R-B-A-G-E

And nothing of value was lost.

Man, I was already so fed up with bad news and then I saw this headline and was like, “Okay! Enough already! Sheesh! I’ve never heard of this person but I get it—everything SUCKS!”

Byyyye✌🏻🖕🏻
