It’s one thing to do it in practice. It’s another thing to do it for real.

Words words words.  Until they change their actual votes, I don’t give a shit about their loss of sleep.  They could have avoided that at any point if they had been willing to think on their own, or willing to listen to anyone other than the crazies they embrace as their base.

I’d love to revel in these assholes getting hoisted by their own petards, but that hoisting comes through the unnecessary suffering of lots of women and girls.  So all I can really do is say fuck all of these people, and if this were a truly functional society, powerful people like this asshole who cavalierly impose…

I learned from the show Hacks that they are so so rich they just say “oh well”, blame their house manager, and easily pay the fines.

I’ve resolved plenty of “possible theft” situations without throwing kids to the ground, and I’m not even a cop. 

If your shit is in a public place and in my way, I’m going to move it. If you tell me you haven’t moved other people’s stuff out of your way in a public place at least once, I’m going to call you a fucking liar.

How about that?

I didn’t read it as a “standard” he’s being held up to, but rather pointing out the fact that being attacked by a man-baby cop is going to cause some trauma that he’s going to have to work out, hopefully with proper support. It sucks that he has to do that, but it doesn’t really matter whether Sergeant Starbucks…

All the butt-hurt racist asshats trying to make the excuse that you don’t touch someone else bike are making a lame-ass argument.

in all cases off duty cops should have exactly zero cop privledges. at this moment he is a private citizen wrongfully detaining a minor. IANAL but i would argue that the kids friends could have been scared for the kids life and should be allowed to act accordingly by beating the fucking shit out of this moron, and…

“...Vitellaro labeled the boy as an “offender” who wasn’t complying with directions.”

According to the Chicago Sun-Times, the boy was sitting on his bike outside of a Starbucks with his friends in Park Ridge. He moved the bike of Vitellaro’s son out of his way, which the sergeant saw as attempted theft.

Why should the boy be held to a standard where he needs to grow and move on from this incident, when it’s the cop who obviously is the immature one?

Asolutely. I saw his tweets before I saw this story, and my takeaway was “He’s not counting his chickens before they’re hatched and wants to push as many people towards watching the show as possible” as opposed to “He doesn’t think it’s going to get picked up.” He said in a previous tweet that they weren’t going to…

I mean he’s probably gonna say whatever he thinks will increase viewership; he’s not gonna be like “Nah, don’t watch it, it’ll be fine.”

“Haunted”

Wait, did I miss something about Liv Tyler? She always comes across as relatively well adjusted in interviews. Is she weird or something and I just never heard about it?

Of all the fandoms to be toxic like this, I find garbage Marvel fans to be the absolute weirdest, because the progressive, cosmopolitan, multiracial vibes have been there like forever, with the LGBTQ+ stuff coming later but really exploding recently.  Like, what comics (or cartoons, or movies) were these incels…

It’s depressing how much thinly veiled misogyny comes out in the comments of ANY story involving Jolie.

Tom Hanks is wondering what he has to do to get Chet to stop talking to him.

Wait, Billie Eilish didn’t slide into your DMs and call you an asshole?
