Well, it's a tough rhyme.

Does the court weigh her career in any non-monetary way? I think their solution to the status of her career is that it can be fixed with money also, and thus not "irreparable harm".

Read it as condescension if you want, I suppose - tone is hard on the internet. I'm frustrated because the AV Club is usually better than this. Not universally, of course, but even with tons of snark their reporting is solid. And yet seemingly every single article about Kesha's case reports it as though she has lost a…

I'm not even sure they can penalize her for refusing to record, they can just prevent her from releasing albums under anyone else's label. I believe she's free to decide she doesn't want to record another record again and go into some other field.

Plus most of the time it doesn't say "Sony", it has the name of one of their many, many subsidiary labels.

PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION. SHE LOST A PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION, NOT THE CASE. She's not " taking her fight to be freed from her contract another step further" because she still has an ACTIVE COURT CASE to be released from her contract. She is presumably appealing the ruling on the injunction, since no one has decided the…

They sold a minority stake to some investment company earlier this year, specifically to raise money for this Hogan case.

With such illustrious company as that "boot in your ass" song.

Totally agree on Garland. This seems like the definition of penny wise, pound foolish for the republicans.

Aw, I missed him going crazy! Bummer.

Eh, I guess that's a matter of opinion. I don't really have a problem with true filibusters - at least it requires some real effort versus just refusing to act for a foolish and ahistorical reason - but I appreciate that others disagree. It's still patently false to claim that as "Obama's filibuster" - he wasn't even…

If you watch it on Netflix, for some reason they split the seasons up differently than how the episodes aired or were released on DVD, so in NetflixLand there are five seasons before the movies. Look at the season lists on Wikipedia or whatever to figure out what the actual seasons are.

It seems more like your grasping at straws to try and paint Obama as a hypocrite since, again, no one blocked Gonzales' nomination. And getting to the confirmation and being (unsuccessfully) filibustered is a fair bit different than the current republican suggestion to do literally nothing with this nomination. Not to…

That also makes no sense as nobody blocked Alito's nomination. Senate democrats attempted to filibuster his confirmation, but failed and he was confirmed and currently sits on the court.

Gonzales was never nominated, so it wasn't blocked by anyone. And he doesn't seem to agree with you: http://talkingpointsmemo.co…

A lot of heroin addicts start as people legitimately prescribed opioids for pain. You get addicted, it's incredibly hard to get clean (and we as a society provide basically nothing but AA-type programs), so you turn to heroin. Snorting, because it's safer and less trashy than shooting up. Eventually you shoot up,…

This is a crazy person's diary!

He also hasn't won the civil trial yet - the ruling was on a preliminary injunction. Kesha still has her chance to win the actual trial.

The ruling was just on a preliminary injunction - her court case is still ongoing. Basically, she had asked the court to release her immediately, without waiting for the outcome of the trial, and that's what was rejected. The "irreparable harm" part simply means that if she does end up winning the case, the damages…
