Not the only one..... I'm told. Passed the bar, spending my life in public defense. Likely thinking about cats at all times.

At the risk of being yelled at..... Stop taking factual allegations in lawsuits as confirmed truth. I promise you, the actual facts will always turn out differently. Plaintiffs always lead with the most sensational and outrageous version of the story (that's not necessarily a bad thing).

Really feels like a missed opportunity here. The Bucks don't need another run right now and a younger team could have been elevated by talking out Cage and Cope. #AEW #AllOut #AEWAllOut

Back in my working days I saw a wrestler get legit knocked out by a kick that landed too snug. It's always unsettling and scary for everybody involved. I hope Steve recovers quickly. #AEW #AEWAllOut #AllOut

If I ever got an order like this from a judge, I would immediately cut up my bar card and relocate to a remote village to live out my days as beachcomber.

1. That they listed such short quotes with zero context means they know this case should be destined for a quick dismissal. 2. Put plainly: The bar for a true threat is high and a general "kill all X" is unlikely to get there. 3. This administration is very stupid (See Seashells, Comey).

I know I'm safe from ever having a full-on poaster crash out simply because I recognize I'm not important enough to gain a real following. I can't even manage a "partner with us" email from a shady supplement company, I don't have the pull to maintain a shadow network of parasocial haters.

Maybe it's me, but if I were in an organization that suddenly made a decision that "made me feel unsafe" (scare quotes cause we all know that's bullshit), I would simply resign and find another group to join. There's no shortage of sororities. This is rank bigotry. kdvr.com/news/local/f...

I know the "Can you imagine if...." exercise is beyond trite and overdone, but if Kid Rock were forced off a tour, Fox News and the Right-wing Media loop would be nonstop outrage for a month straight. Then it get laundered over and we'd all be drowning in censorship and cancel culture think pieces.

So as to better document my endorsement, can you please tell me where I might find this group of attractive, sex-starved, liberal sirens with amazing hair so I can go with them to a private place to chastise them further?

Maine experience of the night: Chilling at an outdoor end of summer party, about 4 drinks in (making me an easy audience). The DJ starts spinning WAP and about 50 young adult white girls losing their minds and twerking and popping on the grass, with about 75-100 older white folks just scandalized.

The fact that Texas' Senate race is a toss up despite Ken Paxton being a throwback to fucking gilded age corruption is another prime example of the moral and ethical bankrupcy of the Republican party. This type of rot cannot be fixed. It needs to be burnt down and salted to prevent festering.

Tangential here, but why in the blue hell do people get so worked up about one college course they find silly? A atandard BA is 120 credit hours with 15 - 30 hours of electives. This course is almost certainly a 3 credit course. A student spent 1/40th of a degree in a class on dolls. The gall!

This forever. 1. The entire story contains zero trans people. It's all cis people pontificating about something that has never been an issue. There are no trans women competing in college or the WNBA. 2. If you say shit like "trans women should play against men" bullshit. You aren't an ally.
