How can I get an invite to your table? Those look amazing!

When I was a young kid, I had a cat that was front-declawed (this was before it was well known that it's an abusive practice - my folks didn't know better at the time). Because he couldn't shred the paper with his claws, he showed his spite by chewing up the roll so it looked like he'd clawed it. Didn't matter which direction the roll was.

I loved that cat. He was so smart.

She would almost certainly have threatened to contact her "solicitor," not her "attorney," if it were real, given she's from/in the UK. Still a very entertaining read, though.

Right? Instead of publicizing his bullshit, we should be ignoring him whilst simultaneously hoping he runs into the wrong end of a lawnmower.

We know why we're hated; it's why those of us who strive to exemplify professionalism, ethics, and civility are so angry and depressed. It's why I've been having a career crisis because I always wanted to go into law, but only to do good, and now it feels like there is so little legitimacy to the judicial branch.

Fuck the people who abuse the rule of law until there is none, fuck Trump and his cronies, and fuck SCOTUS for fucking us. Now excuse me, I have to go cry in a corner.

Colton Gilbert, the debate coach at Central High, said [...] “Every day I walk into class and think to myself: is today’s conversation the one that will get me fired?”

Free speech being chilled in real time. JFC.

Excellent chaser to my sleeve of saltines.

You bringing socialized health care?

I've left the back door unlocked.

I don't even understand how this could qualify for felony murder (which is what I'm assuming they're going for; the article only somewhat talked about the charges), since it was natural causes and not homicide. Sure, you've got an argument for the first element of resisting an officer with violence, but the second element isn't met; no one was killed.

Fucking bass ackwards Florida.

Friendly reminder (for everyone) from someone in the field that the vast majority of people who study law do not end up making millions of dollars a year at top firms. If you're just going into law to make money, there are much less expensive ways to do so.

Short answer is that it is always much easier to (successfully) sue a private party than a government entity. Also probably to deter the private companies from participating in human trafficking.

“I’m sorry — if you only want to work four hours, it’s going to be harder for you to get a house,” she said

What a joke. I spent the better part of the last three years working 70 hour weeks until I burned myself to a crisp. I'm much better off financially than many people my age, yet I am somehow still years away from homeownership and starting a family - if I ever can.

Maybe Whoopi should retire and let a millennial do her job for her pay. Not me; I don't think I'd be able to work as hard as her. 🙄

I wish famous people would just shut up if they're going to say stupid shit. I don't want her tainting my TNG rewatch.
