“You attempted suicide? Your punishment is torture.”

Mandatory counseling sessions perhaps? I know personally men who have beaten their partner and kids who just got a deferred sentence and mandatory therapy. Seems like self harm is a medical issue, not a disciplinary issue.

No. It has nothing to do with safety. It’s an infraction concerning conduct that interferes with discipline and orderliness. She was being punished, not treated, observed, or protected. And it’s fucking barbarous.

It would be nice if “safety” didn’t just mean “not dead”

Except that in this case, she was actually sentenced to solitary confinement as punishment for the suicide attempt.

I really despised what Manning did and am happy to see her locked up for the entire sentence.

So....you get solitary confinement for attempting suicide? Fucking fuck, America.

if you are so hard pressed on these issues, perhaps you should become a journalist and ask those hard hitting questions. why would anyone ask her about meek mill? what are you talking about? he writes his own verses. don’t use an article about nicki minaj bringing an important topic to light as some bizarre excuse…

Thank you, Mister Throw Billy Bush Under the Bus - WE SALUTE YOU.

I have a suspicion that he was hated in the office. I worked in local news and we only taped those sorts of conversations and kept the tapes if you really and truly hated someone. If the nice guy working at the news desk takes a nap during overnights, you let him nap. If the asshole takes a nap, you turn a studio…

Yeah, the standards for hosting Access Hollywood are higher than the standards for holding the highest office in the land.

Interesting how this affects this unimportant guy’s cushy job, but the basket of deplorables that makes up Trump’s base has no problem with their PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE speaking in this manner.

Bingo. Tape comes out with just Trump’s voice, you get responses of either “Who’s Trump talking to?” at best or “The tape’s been doctored! Shillary-backing media made this up!” In either case, they’d have to respond to it by releasing the full tape. Maybe that makes Bush more of a sacrificial lamb and less of a…

I hope Al leaked the tape. If so, he wins everything.

ALL his stuff—used tissues from the garbage, greasy food wrappers, half empty energy drink bottles—making sure they’re rubbing up against his clothes and DVD covers.

If they had edited Billy Bush out, people would have just demanded the unedited version in a call for complete transparency. Conspiracy theorists would go nuts, claiming everything Trump said was taken completely out of context. That Trump was only responding to Bush’s statements that were even worse.

I bet Al Roker and the rest have already put all of Billy’s stuff in a box out on the curb.

The first panel is how the story was originally printed, back in the late 30's/early 40's (I don’t know which story this picture comes from exactly, so I can’t give you an exact date)

I just noticed that in that first panel they’re in one bed and in the second panel the headboard is divided suggesting two beds. I wonder if that was intentional or a mistake, and if so, which panel is the mistake.

That’s what happens after a steady diet of American movies that largely romanticize guns, gun-ownership, and (consequence-free!) gun violence that looks more fun than dangerous.
