... ‘k.

To be fair, she’s mostly the vehicle for other people’s neurotrauma. I don’t think anyone’s been able to actually hit her for quite some time.

Allen was 27 of 28.

Blues fans also got an enjoyable new meme due to an autocorrect moment on the Blues’ Instagram account. #roarbacon

I didn’t form an opinion of either the complainant or Patrick Kane based on this story. I already know Kane is an entitled jackass; that opinion hasn’t changed. I don’t know if Kane is a rapist; that opinion hasn’t changed. I don’t know if the complainant is a victim, a liar, misremembering events or whatever; that…

Yuk it up, but when you get pancaked by an ambulance, you’ll be glad he’s there.

I’m sorry, I cannot be the only person put off by “so-called ‘case’” complete with scare-quotes here. Just say you determined you couldn’t prove the matter beyond a reasonable doubt; shading the complainant just makes you into Baron von Duschnazel, Mr. District Attorney man.

To be clear, interns are doctors, so of course they can issue orders for their patients’ care and reliably expect them to be carried out, but nurses aren’t personal assistants or janitors like some newbie MDs seem to think.

Not a nurse, just have lived/worked with them all my life, so I do have some general observations.

Wow, this sure is one stanky dumpster fire. I bet whatever’s in this red can will put it out quickly, though.

Several knock-ons in that sequence. Duke should’ve had the put-in at the scrum.

True, but on the other hand they did find time for a feature on defunct speedways (eta: just noticing that was from Jalopnik originally) and a curling Canuck kissing the rink just today. This has been a big day for legendary performances, and only the four-legged one has an article so far.

That much is fair, but the final’s been set for a week and not a peep, far as I can tell.

Quite.

The only institution with a plausible “Harvard of the Midwest” claim is U. of Chicago, with maybe WUSTL challenging. Everybody else is playing for “Swarthmore of the Midwest” or whatever.

Arrested, whaaaa? He didn’t do anything illegal.

See, it’s things like this that make me dream of a world where you don’t get to produce testosterone until you pass a written and practical exam, while under the controlled influence of same, on not being a total snozzcumber who utilizes violence, or threats thereof, to resolve every disagreement.

Why, why do we train cops that they have to “win” every goddamn encounter?

Hmmm... nope. I don’t dismiss opposing arguments; I dismiss shitfits, opposing and otherwise. It’s not hard to tell the difference.

Riki Lindhome and Kate Micucci comprise “Garfunkel and Oates” and do comedy music bits for guitar and ukulele. Haven’t seen much of their work but they seem like talented folks. UCB alumnae, reliably funny when you need their type so lots of TV guest spots between them.
