That explains a lot.

This article immediately made me think of the old awesome “Elliot Stabler: Rage Cop” meme page but I can’t find it now (my work blocks tumblr). The SVU formula works because we all fantasize about a world where cops give a shit about rape and zealously go after powerful men and rapists. This is nothing like our world…
Truly fuck that guy - fuck him with a rusty rake.
The show just isn’t the same without Stabler trampling suspects’ civil rights on a weekly basis. He’s one step away from Russel Crowe in LA Confidential.
Did your husband grow up in some universe where tv doesn’t exist? It’s the only way I can account for someone not knowing who Detective Stabler is, given just how many episodes (and then constant re-runs) of SVU have aired (and all long before we all stopped having cable)!
Lord, grant me the confidence of a mediocre white man.
I don’t want to commit suicide, and I don’t want to wish harm on others, but I do wish they...how do I say this...didn’t exist.
I was just about to do similar back-of-the-napkin math on this. According to a quick Google search, the average rent for a two-bedroom apartment in New York is about $3,600 per month. If she’s earning somewhere in the middle of that salary range, she’s left with about $1,200 per month to cover non-rent expenses. So,…
He’s been smoking ground up copies of Atlas Shrugged, cut with The Fountainhead. You wouldn’t want any, that shit will swiss cheese your brain faster than any prion disease...
That’s fucking terrible, and shame on his employer! That said, healthcare should not be tied to employment.
So I had to look this guy up (“author” is thrown around a lot). He is a health insurance lobbyist who writes for The Federalist, Ben Domenech’s* online right-wing rag.
$61k-$87K gross? If gross then she’s taking home about 1/3 less a year, right. So she’s taking home $40k-$59k a year and its pretty goddamn likely she’s paying upwards of $3000/month rent if in NY. So $36,000 on rent & util, she’s got $4000-$24000 for groceries, transportation, family expenses, and all those ancillary…
My son works 50+ hours a week in a salaried position. His employer does not offer health insurance coverage because it’s cheaper for them to just pay the penalties.
Because she has a new identity and the details of her case are a) not widely known outside of North America, and b) she comes up as a felon who has served their time in full and has not reoffended.
Don’t get me wrong, she is the devil. She was also an abused woman. She was an awful trash bag who was abused by an even…
So if you’re a serial killer, your immigration application doesn’t just get circular filed?
That is beautiful!
Wow, that is an amazing list!
I feel like a lot of it has to do with just how convoluted and messy the whole thing was. It was the first big celebrity rape incident that I paid close attention to and it was a fucking madhouse. And yesterday I saw so many people running their mouth about it who clearly had no actual idea what really happened…
Just as Tom Brady’s obituary will mention Deflategate and Darryl Strawberry’s will cover his struggles with substance abuse, it is journalistic malpractice to sum up Bryant’s life and career without mentioning the credible rape allegations.
