Brits seem so much better than Yanks at celeb interviews that go goofy. Beth Hammond’s chat show interview of Harrison Ford and Ryan Gosling for Blade Runner 2049 is legendary.

What’s funny/sad is that he wrote about being a bad boss in 2015 (to some credit he was trying to change)--but it was still allowed to run toxicly till now. I’d read a mention of it now and again, but foodie, like most consumers of things, don’t care overall.

I first learned of this fellow from his committed use of local, findable, greens and other items from the soil and sea. But your point is accurate - he’s got at least a nine-month wait-list, the bill there for 2 would, I guess, exceed $1000 easily each time if one drinks, chefs are wishing to work there from all over…

Let’s do some math: First, we’ll double the $500 for the wine pairing, then we’ll assume 100 covers/night and multiply that by 300, which gives us a gross of 30 million/year, which yeah.

“Nobody wants to work anymore. I mean, these beetles aren’t gonna fruit leather themselves.”

“The problem is how to pay [the employees] enough to afford children, a car and a house in the suburbs.”

Sony is definitely getting some weird favoritism here. The fact that everything they have said they are worried about Microsoft doing is straight from the Sony playbook of shit they’ve been doing for more than a decade is pretty clearly hypocritical. People keep pointing to Microsoft being a bigger company ignoring…

Thank you for the insight. I did suspect that this guy is as problematic as his client. And I truly don’t think all lawyers are sociopaths. I’m good friends with one who is one of the most generous people I know.

And still people will ask why women don’t speak up. This attorney’s entire line of questioning broadcast in bold neon why she hadn’t reported this sooner — she was being blackmailed, and in fact the blackmail continued right there on the witness stand, in front of a judge, who sat there and allowed it.

As a vampire who lives in GA, he just lost my vote. Also Fright Night is great. This guy cant tell the truth about anything. How many abortions he paid for, who would win in a vampire werewolf fight, he acts like he doesn’t know the name of the movie he was watching when he clearly does. Why you gonna lie about not…

as a lawyer (not a courtroom litigator but still a lawyer) I feel obliged to speak up and say NO, you aren’t required to check your humanity at the door LOL, in fact a big part of the prosecution’s case requires humanity—showing the trauma this dickstain left these women with. This particular scumbag lawyer is part of…

why not both? LOL

Yeah I don’t get it, the victim shouldn’t even have had time to say anything before the judge sent the lawyers to go fuck themselves (but more politely cause they’re a judge).

I just got a concession speech email from Caruso thanking me for my "steadfast support" and I wanna know who's out there spreading lies about me. 

“the other night...” he was watching this? Like... we’ve all been there, I relate to that. I’m slowly working my way through some movie about a mineshaft to hell or something on Netflix after I put the kids to bed but... I’m also NOT IN THE MIDDLE OF A CONGRESSIONAL CAMPAIGN!

What’s next? “you know when your Tesla is…

JFC. I get that lawyers are required to check their humanity at the door and defend their client, but this isn’t defending the client. This is just being fucking ghoulish.

Stories like this are the reason rational and compassionate judges are important. From a recent ruling from the Canadian Supreme Court:

I think Weinstein is doing what I think Warren Jeffs did: he knows he’s going to lose anyway so he directed his attorney to re-traumatize witnesses all over again as punishment for speaking up.

She voluntarily identified herself as Jane Doe #4 to the press. The court is still required by statute to identify her that way because of the nature of the offense, the press is not. No violation of ethics here.

Perhaps he also watched The Vampire Diaries. There, the werewolves had venom, and it killed vampires slowly and painfully.
