It’s a show about monsters. I didn’t get that the writer was trying to draw a parallel between monster and trans* at all. Mulder fumbled his explanation and it felt appropriate. He’s a forty something year old cis guy that watches a shit ton of porn. He’s not going to get it 100% correct but he tried. The writer…

Ryan Ferguson, Michael Morton, (and sadly)etc.

I haven’t really heard anyone saying that he’s innocent because he’d never hurt a fly or that he’s the sweetest guy in the world and they want to go on dates with him or something. What I have heard is people saying he’s innocent because a)the prosecution did not come anywhere near close to proving their case beyond a…

GOsh, really works out for those people who were going to be sued for 36 million. #luckybreak

Does Twitter remove tweets in response to complaints and/or legal challenges? It’s more likely she means something along those lines, I think.

Google Ryan Ferguson. She is responsible for finally freeing him 10 years after he was sent to prison bc of a “dream”.

Benicio del Toro for Sicario.

What baffles me most is how Winter’s Bone, a indie film about JLaw taking a boat ride through the swamp to saw off her dead father’s hands, is somehow more worthy of recognition than Tangerine.

Don’t forget Iris Elba for Beasts of No Nation, and his enormously impressive young co-star Abraham Attah who essentially carried the movie despite this being his very first credit. I’d also throw in O’Shea Jackson Jr. for Straight Outta Compton.

God I just love her so much. I want to give her a hug and tell her it’s all going to be okay.

I voted for Nader in 2000, so don’t give me this “critiques of Naderites” thing. I did so because (1) I live in California so it didn’t matter; (2) I was a young idiot; and (3) I LIVE IN CALIFORNIA SO IT DIDN’T MATTER.

Nineteen days into 2016.

She definitely deserves justice. But planting evidence on someone suing the county for $36 million and coercing a developmentally delayed teenager with an IQ of 72 into a false confession is not justice. If you saw the interrogation of that boy, it would make you want to throw up.

Here’s the thing, though- they reached out to Halbach’s family to try to talk to them for the documentary, and they flat out refused to participate. So did the prosecution and the police. The only people who agreed to participate were the Averys. So of course it’s going to focus on that part of the story when those…

AND to be fair, anyone who claims to eat authentic Mexican food will not be chowing down on a burrito (which is an americanismo); so this whole conversation is moot.

Not hyperbole because Mountain Dew Baja Blast is the greatest soft drink ever created, available only at Taco Bell and makes all of their food somehow taste 1000 times better. It’s also impossible to get tired of. I think it’s laced with all sorts of wonderful drugs or magic. Maybe both.

I like Ricky Gervais and his humor. And honestly, all the hate and outrage he gets here on this site just makes me shake my head.

Can we stop calling them “manacles” and just call them “fuzzy pink handcuffs”?

They presented hand cuffs from a sex toy shop with none of Thresa’s dna on them. Nothing I have read that was left out was particularly damning, seemed less so than what was in the documentary. Also most of it comes from the shady sexting DA who declined to participate and is a cry baby about it.

It’s not that biased. It’s from the defense and family’s perspective, but they asked the prosecution if they wanted to be in it repeatedly and they said no. The trial was about 6-7 weeks so they had to cut down all that footage to 10 hours. Obviously not everything is going to be shown. The point was never to paint…
