I know a lot of people are hyper critical of the royals and being an American I’m not even going to jump in that fray, but regardless it seems that Harry is one of the good ones. I think Diana would be overjoyed that he got to marry whomever he wanted. That alone is worth celebrating.

Cant believe prince harry is marrying an eighty year old british detective lady … ohhh miss Markle, never mind.

Some of the adult women involved may have been trafficked themselves when they were kids.

Illustrations are so pretty! Thanks, Dad!

This is why I feel skeevy about alternative weeklies, even though I know reporters who work for them and my husband is featured in the current issue of my city’s alt weekly. The back pages of those are directly linked to sex trafficking in many cities, as this case neatly illustrates.

The sentencing guidelines factor in time off for good behavior. If this guy keeps his nose clean, he could be out as early as 2217.

the US has consecutive sentences. So, for example I’m from Canada so in Canada you might be sentenced to 1 year per charge and have 5 charges = 5 years. But in Canada you serve those sentences concurrently. So in reality, it would be 1 year. In US, they don’t do that. You serve your time for each crime in succession -…

Nice to see scum like this go down for life (can someone explain to me why the US has that weird system of hundreds of years sentences?) but my god did the rest of them get off with nothing. “Contributing to delinquency of a minor” and effectively getting away with no punishment for using drugs to pimp out children…

Okay then, that’s a wrap on the name Brock.

Good. May he have a long and miserable life in the worst prison America has to offer.

Not a gif, but I’m feeling the need for a cleansing fire.

And because everything can’t be terrible all the time.

GIF post time, because, as I said on a different post, I’m out of words.

Yeah everything I’m reading about foresters is good! The only downside is the price, lol

I was able to get some old family stuff that was too heavy to ship. Great old books and my mom’s 1960s Sunbeam waffle iron. Made my first batch tonight.

I’m super late because I forgot I actually had a question to ask. I need to buy a new car and have no idea what to get. I’d like either a sedan or a compact SUV. I’m short (5' 1") so I need something I can see out of. Right now I’m between a Honda Accord, a Subaru Forester or a Subaru Impreza. I live in the Northeast…

I’m so sorry - wedding talk sucks. Congrats on your tenure track job, though - that is wonderful and brag worthy!

Honestly had very mixed feelings about it. I had been on the fence about going back home, but I did so because my grandmother’s been sick and I haven’t seen her in so long. While I was there, an aunt and uncle who I haven’t seen in years paid a surprise visit, because they wanted to see her too.

Being sick on thanksgiving sucks. It happens to me almost every year. Two years ago I broke my tailbon the week of thanksgiving. I’m surprised I didn’t kill my liver this week, I was taking Tylenol constantly for 4 different ailments from period pain, to dental work, and sinus junk. But I’m feeling mostly better down…
