I came here to say the same thing. Hiking is nice (no, it isn’t), but, male or female, why meet a stranger somewhere that it’s EASY TO HIDE YOUR BODY?

If you’re lucky, the unpleasantries begins AFTER you’re dead.

Absolutely. I’d blame myself and call my own perception into question a thousand times before I’d gather the sanity or courage to accuse BILL FUCKING COSBY of one of the most horrible crimes we know. There are many hundreds of victims and the ones who have come forward are brave beyond words. Their reputations are…

WHY ARE YOU DEFENDING THE OUTDOORS?!

Coulda ended worse...

I have argued myself to exhaustion about the half chore and the chore bait-and-switch with my husband. There are two issues:

HALF CHORES OMG YESSS

Hell, according to this we’re doomed because I’m older, have more education, and am a (terrible) Christian whereas he’s agnostic.

And let’s be real here... there are certainly so, so, SOOO many more than 40. I would guess hundreds based on how relentlessly predatory Cosby was for decades. But most women, I’m sure, just want to move on with their lives, don’t want people to know, don’t want to shame or embarrass or upset their current families,…

Agreed. Sometimes prison is not the worst punishment. It would’ve been ideal decaed ago when he was young, but now? I think it’s better that his reputation is ruined, that he knows we see him as a fraud and thathe disappointed America. Those are things that really meant something to him and they are gone. I’m sure he…

Edgy and original insight. Thank you, sir!

“That’s what she said”

Oh my god, it’s so much larger than I was envisioning.

It’s almost like something called a “wildfire” behaves in an arbitrary or unpredictable way...

You dear sir/madam are dangerously close to being a psychopath. To assume that children/people who are 9 and 10 years old who have experienced a very volatile relationship, regardless of which parent is right or wrong with allegations of abuse on one side and allegations of “parental alienation” on the other, are…

vilifying the father when there is NOTHING other than evidence that he has tried to have a good relationship with his kids

Yes. Punishment is my word for her putting them in jail while openly and repeatedly gloating about how horrible it will be for them. Like I said, she doesn’t even bother to pretend she is doing this in their best interest; she goes the opposite way, and tells them again and again how terrible it will be for them, and…

Yes, that part you quoted? Is where she directly says that imprisoning them is solely about punishment, and that she will continue to punish them until they treat their father like she wants them to. You can speculate all you like about the mother and the children, but it’s absurd and disingenuous to pretend the judge…

Exactly. “Thanks for getting me put in a juvenile detention center when I was 9 dad...it really helped our relationship!”

His response to having his kids thrown in jail for not wanting to see him was to whine to the media about about how hard his life is and what a bitch his ex-wife is, and then leave the country for two weeks. The mother may be a whack job, but as someone else said above, he failed the Soloman test in a major way—he’d…
