i didn’t know about that testimony! i wonder if it was one of the unfortunate situations where she was getting paid to work for 25 hours, but basically expected to be on call 24/7 at marina’s whim, or scheduled in such a way that made other employment impossible (for example paid for one hour during morning dropoffs,…

I think i was pretty clear that that would in no way be a defense, just that i have seen many many nannies and babysitters particular those for whom English is not their first language be taken advantage of and mistreated and I found it interesting that the defense chose to go with this very weak insanity defense. But…

okay, thats great for starting a hypothesis, but its not great for actual facts.

Exhibit 1432-A, subdash C, on how you privatize revenue and socialize expenses.

Back when we were young drug mules a gram of cocaine cost a quarter and you smuggled it inside your rectum and you LIKED IT.

Exactly. I don’t anticipate anyone thought this would go to trial, especially when the only thing they were arguing about was whether she’d be in prison or a forensic facility. Either way she’s locked up for life. I do think the prosecution tortured the people and family for no reason. Couldn’t they have agreed to let…

I agree. I actually think it might be useful to look at this case through the prism of the “family annihilator” - a parent (usually a father) who kills his children and then commits suicide. They’re often motivated by a desire for revenge against their ex-partner, who they feel wronged them in divorce or custody…

“One word-objections. Don’t argue in front of the jury and don’t speak over each other,”

But I’ve also connected to people more than I have in years and I have this newfound ability to stop procrastinating and live life. And I’m doing charity work which is unbelievably…

They never bone in the movie.

Actually, no. The moment you start sending your trainers in to combat, your training quality starts to suffer. It puts your force in a vicious cycle where lack of trainers creates a lack of qualified crew, results in fewer qualified and less qualified trainers further reducing crew quality...

My daughter has two friends with massive clouds of naturally red curly hair. One girl is white, the other is biracial with very light skin. People comment on their hair constantly, but rarely touch either of them until they find out the second girl is half black. Then the paws start stretching for her head. She…

As a woman, having a hair trigger anger-escalation response has actually worked to keep me safe from male violence. So, thank you emotionally abusive Mom?

If you think that defies logic you’re amazingly uninformed about cost saving measures used by Food Corps and how that relates to nutrition.

Listen here Tammy. You can get back to me on what Democrats do or don’t believe after you have suffered from an ectopic pregnancy and the ambulance takes you to a Catholic hospital.

I’m sorry. That sounds really rough.

I joined nextdoor just so I could find out who my racist white neighbors were.

ok, so I hate tRump as much as the next sane person and think Huckabee is a lying souless shill completely devoid of morals, but this article is Fox news level of blowing something completely out of proportion.

You smell like tomatoes.

Now you’re just being too obvious.
