He is not on trial for defamation. He already lost that trial and was found liable when the judge entered summary judgement against him in November because of his “willful noncompliance” with discovery.  The proceedings now are just to determine how much it is going to cost him.

“it’s going to have to work really hard to cool the place down. The compressor, fan, and other components will get a workout. Running it at night when the temperature is much lower means it won’t experience so much wear and tear,”

At first I thought it’d be different if it were their daughters but then I realized they’d probably be the ones responsible

One day Thomas will write an opinion putting himself back in chains.  What an absolute fucking nightmare of a human being that nut is.

He supports trans, but his current choice for President 2024.... Ron “Don’t Say Gay” DeSantis.

Counterpoint: no. When neo-Nazis go underground, that just lets them escape culpability for all the harm they caused. If he wants redemption, he can loudly and publicly denounce the movement he once led. He can fight, like a number of ex-neo-Nazis have, to destroy the organizations he previously supported. He isn’t…

This feels like an, “Anything for some p*ssy” approach to life.

If he’s seriously reformed, I think he owes it to the country to be much more public about it. Explain his reasons and show that he understands why his previous positions were so awful. He wasn’t just some random conservative who saw the error of his ways, he was a white nationalist leader.

Lizzo was forced to change the lyrics to new single, “GRRRLS,” after the original featured an ableist slur.

If the SOI had any balls, they would cancel this year’s Special Olympics and release a statement blaming it on DeSantis and his refusal to let them have a vaccine mandate.

The last four Democratic candidates standing in the 2020 primaries against a deeply unpopular Republican President were:

I once thought AOC was too radical, too controversial to be a Senator. Now I want her to be the fucking President. She’d play dirty and get shit done.

kind of an open secret. unfortunately nothing will come of this. he’s too powerful and the girls who have come out all have been 18+ at the time and don’t have any influence so hollywood will continue to turn a blind eye.

Quickies. We used to treat sex like an all night thing when we were younger which led to less sex as work and responsibilities piled on over the years, because better not to do something than do something half-assed, right?

A couple of pharmaceutical interventions have really improved things for us. First and foremost was my wife finding the right antidepressant that both improved those symptoms and didn’t also kill her sex drive. This took a long time.

Republicans did the same thing to Tennessee’s heavily Democratic 5th Congressional district, which includes all of Nashville. Jim Cooper has represented it for nearly 2o years and they’re breaking it up into three conservative districts to that point that he’s very publicly stated he’s being forced to retire due to…
