Thank you! Was just coming to appreciate the prosecutor asking this of the doctor who was so eager to excuse the behavior that he invented a term to minimize the actions of this creepy, sandwich-loving yet sandwich-blaming pedophile.
Whenever I see old medical instruments, I’m (1) very grateful to be alive now instead of then and (2) convinced the people who came up with them were essentially walking nightmares.
GREAT JOB, Judge Pratt! Decent human beings everywhere appreciate the recognition that 5-12 years wasn’t sufficient for his crimes.
Kinda wish there was another place to find all my favorite kinja-ers, as well. At least as these writers scatter in the wind, they’re good and we’ll be able to find them somewhere else. (Brightish side?)
I KNOW, right?! It’s an amazingly tone-deaf action to take right after an article pointing out the lack of diversity at Gawker. I’ve got some other sites that I like, but I liked the mixture here - and the awesome commenters. Gonna miss that!
Exactly! I keep seeing this and just about sums it up: I guess I’m not the reader they want.
Are you following Dennis on Twitter? He posted something new about this week’s weather ...
I loved the Vane.
What kind of pie is funeral pie? I’m all for some good pie, and it is definitely in order after this sucktastic week.
I just found out that bit last night because I got really busy for a couple of days. I guess IO9 is folding into Gizmodo. And I’m with you.
There are still some Jez writers around that I like, but throughout the rest of Gawker media, everyone I really enjoyed is gone. I guess it’s time to look for another favorite…
I kinda feel like ... I can’t trust that it is really safe.
AGREED (and flawless gif-ing).
While I love the unbelievably descriptive turns of phrase that come up with every post about him, this one comes closest to reflecting to what I believe is his actual soul. Or what is where his soul should be.
He’s just so arrogant with his feigned innocence about being a dick.
Dayna’s piece is a good read. I read it last night, and it links to some other interesting articles, as well. It’s a sad, discouraging rabbit hole to go down.
I hadn’t thought of that point about long form pieces on Jez fading away, too, but it would kind of fit - and I hope it doesn’t happen! I’d hate to see the…
I’m sorry - I’m not sure why, but that cracks me up! What kind of trouble, exactly, does your employer think will be caused by poor, dear, little Poot?!
I like that one, too! I literally JUST found it a few days ago.
:/
I KNOW.
Congrats on being in the black for however many days or hours it lasted.
SAYIN’. I will be so lost on Monday....
