This was weird - nobody had any idea in the immediate aftermath where De Grasse finished. CBC only announced it maybe ten seconds after the race. I feel like this was either done for show, or they had Bailey do this to a replay.

This is why I don’t want Seattle to get a new NBA team.

They’re from Texas. I’m pretty sure they couldn’t locate Canada on a map

The fans chanting USA, USA do realize that most of the Blue Jays players are Americans, right?

I don’t know that it matters how much he made, or how prolific the job is, an absent father is an absent father. Even if he supported the family wonderfully from an financial standpoint, children, especially boys, need a father figure.

FWIW, nearly all the Firebirds’ players lived with host families in Grand Blanc, an upper middle class suburb a short drive away. Home to a decent number of GM-affiliated engineers and execs (AC Delco and GM Goodwrench are headquartered there), and a really good school district. Not a bad place at all for a 17 year…

To continue a conversation begun, last night (anyone?).

That’s exactly how I feel. In a case that rests entirely on the accusers’ testimonies (as sexual assault cases often do), even minor inconsistencies can be exploited by the defense to introduce doubt. And there were massive, calamitous inconsistencies here. If the accusers had been forthcoming about their contact with…

I am a lawyer, and a woman and I am so pissed off at this decision, but (and yes there is a but) often our clients are not truthful with us. I often have to repeatedly tell clients to stop editing the information they provide. Often they will tell us what they think will help their case instead of the truth or the…

I am not a lawyer, nor do I play one on TV, but it seemed to me that the Crown didn’t exactly outdo themselves when it came to preparation and due diligence. They knew they were up against a wolverine of a defense attorney and there was no way the case would be a slam-dunk, and yet they seemed disorganized and…

They did have someone report on the nature of memory and why it’s possible that retelling of events from 10+ years ago may be skewed.

I watched the 70 minute live blog of the judge’s acquittal and he also said that how a victim behaves after an attack is not on trial here... and then proceeded to discredit the victims…

Asshole Fan #1: I think think that coin hit her. It may have hurt her.

I don’t see how anyone could not sympathize with this guy. We’ve all felt like this - it’s only by the grace of God we haven’t all pooped ourselves in public. There was a Pissing Contest about this, wasn’t there?

His brother is hotter.

Applying wizards and magic to human history is pretty horrible if you stop to think about it. Why didn’t wizards do anything about the Holocaust? Were there Nazi wizards too? Were there wizard slave owners in the Americas?

I laughed out loud at the thought of Ciara going fishing and saying fuck it, takes out a handgun and goes to town. Thanks.

That’s a very good point. I was being judgy and thinking it was too ordinary, but then realized that it’s perfect for her age group and aesthetic. Think it would be pretty great if I could get my mom to wear’s Caitlyn Jenner’s lipstick shade, but that won’t happen.

ugh, right? It actually is very, very sad.

I’m still so young, so I’m just having fun.
