while you're right that the rapist is a monster and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, the lawyer here is referring to the friend who recorded the rapist confessing to the rape.

HAHAHAHA that walmart is in my hometown and why am i not surprised?

eh, if she were being properly monitored with the proper equipment it would have had alarms going off all over the second her oxygen levels were off, which would have alerted them to the fact that she wasn't getting enough oxygen. being sedated is dangerous and doctors who don't take the risks seriously are super…

my sister is a cake decorator who briefly worked for him. they use rice krispie treat stuff on most of his cakes for the more sculptural elements, most of it is actually edible, but not all necessarily cake.

"Lower taxes, limited government and a fair, predictable court will encourage economic growth which equates to more good paying jobs."

almost all of their seattle stores are serving stuff like flatbreads and cheeseplates, along with wine and beer. they are definitely moving into more food.

hah! yeah that would be awesome and so deserved. it's just so unfortunate that calling out this kind of behavior might as well be career suicide for her. my greatest dream is a warren/gillibrand presidential ticket, but i'm obviously a dreamer.

i agree with you, but i totally understand the position she's in and why she can't/won't.

i was once fired by the relatively famous chef/owner of the last restaurant i worked at before retiring from the service industry for becoming ill after eating the staff meal before service. i have celiac and was told the meal was gluten free, but realized that wasn't the case when i started projectile vomiting in the…

seriously - THIS. my best friend growing up had thyroid issues and was accused of being anorexic all the time. my family is fairly certain my dad has some anorexic behaviors but no one bats an eye at a thin 60 year old man.

my grandfather has celiac and dementia and his doctors have told us the dementia is a direct result of being undiagnosed with the celiac for so long. the neurological stuff is horrible.

Grumpy cat lives in Seattle and sat next to my friend on a flight back from Phoenix. Apparently his owner wasn't very friendly.

the problem with requiring doctors notes (and a problem i definitely had when i was working in the industry) was that none of the places offered insurance. so it was like, either come in or get a doctors note or we'll fire you. ps, you'll have to pay for the drs visit our of your own pocket. fucked system.

i worked in restaurants for years. lots of bullshit. here's the best one:

i regularly run half marathons and am just a little smaller than her. running is terrible for weight loss, strength training and dieting are the best ways, they just suck more than running does.

my sister is a professional cake decorator, and people ask her to do weird shit like this way too often.

another good way to get nice flowers if you are sending flowers that aren't local to you, is call a florist near you that you trust. florists have networks and partner florists that will make sure you're taken care of. best bang for your buck is finding a florist who is going to deliver it themselves though.

here's the thing too. 1800flowers isn't a florist, they send the orders to local florists after taking a cut off the top (usually 20-30%). these are going to look nothing like the photos, and you can bet you ass 100 red roses costs a lots more than the $280 the local florist is getting to design this. if you wanna…

i waited until i got a kindle to read it cause i always read in coffee shops, on the bus, etc. i finished it after about 3-4 months (as a VERY avid reader, i HATED how long it took). most of the book i loved, but when i got to the end it felt so empty...like, that was it? really?

i've been 3 times, March, August and October. October was definitely the best for weather and lines and August was miserable. I was last there 10 months after the first Harry Potter stuff opened and the longest lines were ~1 hour. If you wanna check out the HP stuff and not have insane lines I'd wait at least that…
