Making Sense of the Dizzyingly Complicated Jameela Jamil Controversy
Jameela Jamil’s name is in the news once again in connection with another controversy, and no, this time it’s not about airbrushing or George W. Bush. It all started when a journalist accused the star of The Good Place of lying about her health issues over the years, and the situation has only snowballed from there. For the not Very Online, each new detail emerging out of the drama has only made it more difficult to follow: Why are people suggesting that Jamil has Munchausen syndrome? How does Piers Morgan factor into this? And what do swarms of bees—yes, bees—have to do with anything?
Handcuffed Weinstein Sent to Jail After Rape Conviction, Acquittal on Top Charge
A New York jury found former Hollywood studio boss Harvey Weinstein guilty of third-degree rape in the case of Jessica Mann and guilty of first-degree criminal sexual assault in the case of Mimi Haleyi, acquitting him of the two most serious counts of predatory sex assault.
Those two counts of predatory sex assault, which carried a max sentence of life and would have required 12-member jury to find Weinstein guilty of attacking both “Sopranos” actress Annabella Sciorra and Mann or both Sciorra and Haleyi, appeared to be a point of contention late last week. As the fourth day of deliberations wrapped up Friday, the jury sent the judge a note asking if they could be deadlocked on those two counts. The judge said no, and refused the defense’s request for a partial verdict.
The panel, made up of five women and seven men, returned to deliberations on Monday morning, their fifth day of discussions, and issued their decision before lunchtime. The criminal sex act conviction along carries up to 25 years in prison; third-degree rape has a max sentence of four years.
Hollywood breathes a sigh of relief has the only monster who ever pressured a young actress for sex is finally behind bars.
Prepackaged mayonnaise slices from Japan.
Sliced mayonnaise and white chocolate now exist in Japan, bringing sandwiches to glorious new era
[OMWC triggered]
The music choice sums up my feelings on all this.
Mayonnaise should never have been given to the Japs.
They’re welcome to the Miracle Whip, however.
Artisnalist!
It’s meth country out there, he’ll be fine.
Just like home.
I doubt he has to worry about any mouth virginity, as well.
I assume they are both toothless, which I’m sure helps.
That’s just wrong.
If your mayo is in a state where it can hold its shape as a slice, don’t eat it.
+1 spoonful
QuikTrip sells burgers in the case that you can nuke right there. They have little pats of sauce that melt like the cheese. That sauce is awesomesauce.
Anyway, so… Yeah, I can see solid mayo in slices.
I’m not going down the you don’t get a vote line again. But the fact that you eat microwaved gas station burgers will be weighed in any considerations of food opinions expressed henceforth.
There is no accounting for taste. But that doesn’t mean I won’t judge you for it anyways.
Mojeaux likes my music choices, too.
I reallly like some microwaved gas station sandwiches. Chevron out here has a delicious roast beef and pepperoncini sandwich. And Bay Area 7-11s have one of the best chicken salad sandwiches around. It must be the local producer, though, because the same sandwich at 7-11s in other parts of the country aren’t nearly as good.
I have NEVER made a secret of the fact that I have the palate sophistication of a toddler.
So… lemon curd and velveeta (not mixed)?
I would rather have lemon curd than lemon pudding, yes, but the pudding will do in a pinch.
Velveeta has its place, which is over scrambled eggs and mixed with Ro-Tel for nachos.
I am still sad over that $30/lb Spanish goat cheese I cannot afford.
What the hell is wrong with lemon curd?
I wouldn’t know, I was assembling Mo’s shopping list.
mmm . . .chicken nuggets and generic hot dogs.
Ennnnhhhhhh, chicken nuggets no.
Take the “generic” out of hot dog and give me a giant beef one at the ballpark and then we’re talking. If I could afford Nathan’s hot dogs, I would buy them.
See . . .your palate isn’t like a toddler, more like a 5th grader.
Beef hot dogs taste… off to me. Because I was raised on the ultra-cheap “you don’t want to know” dogs that were mostly “Mechanically separated pork.”
Agree with UCS here .. . and I don’t want to change, because It’s nice to be able to pick up a package for a dollar and make multiple meals out of it.
I was fine with cheap Bar-S hot dogs for years.
Then I had a beef one and I was spoilt forever.
That is not to say my palate can’t be taught. It can.
I just have no interest in preparing most things I like at home or experimenting. I don’t like cooking enough that I’m not going to waste time or money engaged in a thing I don’t like.
Kirkland brand all-beef hot dogs are the best.
Fight me.
In my quest to understand native New York culture, I tried several kinds of hot dogs, but nowhere enar as many as exist in the supermarket.
So far, my favorites are Sabretts and Old Kayem.
Have you found a place that sells goat?
Not goat cheese, goat.
Goat meat
Honestly, I haven’t looked since I don’t often cook it. However there is a stand-alone butcher shop in town and two frou-frou groceries that could undoubtedly get it if it’s not in the case already.
I know I can get duck and rabbit (frozen) in the grocery store.
I like Bar-S turkey hds

Amy Berman Jackson: Judges cannot be ‘biased’
They’re all completely neutral arbiters of truth, justice, and the American way. They’re also mostly full of shit, even the good ones.
She didn’t say that, Brochettaward left off a pretty big “If” clause from her statement, he’s learning form The Media™ apparently.
There are good people on both sides…
Exactly.
I’m biased against federal judges who claim to be able to divine the will of the American people as Jackson did a few days ago, personally. Certainly that’s based on the evidence presented to her while she was just doing her job. Also, I probably have a thing against judges who describe a juror proven to have lied to the court as having served with integrity.
Your schtick wears pretty fucking thin dude, especially with this shit. The Stones defense teams major issue with the judge is that she allowed that hopelessly partisan scrunt of a forewoman to serve on the jury. There’s not any way, shape, or form you can argue that a partisan leftist Democrat can try Roger Stone without bias. The equivalent is a Republican activist, a local Tea Party chapter head and NRA life member being allowed to chair a jury hearing a case against Karl Rove or James Carville.
We’re not talking about Susie Soccer Mom who votes Democrat because gosh those Republicans are mean but isn’t actively engage in politics and doesn’t know the names of Republican political operatives. This is a woman whos social media posts clearly demonstrate that she was a leftist activist. She knows very well who Roger Stone is, what he does for a living, and has publicly stated her opinions about him. She cannot serve as a juror. Not if you actually want a fair trial.
But of course, they never actually wanted a fair trial.
Schtick? I was told (thanks, Winston) that holding people to their own standards is totally acceptable, We (the royal ‘glib’ we) criticize The Media™ for framing narratives, truncating quotes, leaving out details etc… I’m just ensuring that we aren’t doing the same.
Trusting Winston for what’s acceptable is where your problem lies.
I was thanking Winston for the ‘I was told…’ qualifier, not for what is and isn’t acceptable.
He’s also good for the “I find it interesting that…”
I find it interesting that i was told that common qualifiers often loose their meaning.
Studies show that if you begin your outright lie with “studies show”, people will tend to believe it
I don’t believe you.
Her “if clause” was complete bullshit however.
Unless I guess, you’re like Ken White and believe that government officials have more rights than mere tax cattle.
Then call her on that, don’t claim that she said “Judges can’t be ‘biased'” and leave it at that.
Well, no. “Judges can’t be biased” is bullshit on it’s face. The “if” clause does nothing to alleviate it, and is itself bullshit. Why you chose to mention that as if it made her statement in toto more defensible is between you and your mental health professional I guess.
Her statement ‘in toto’ is defensible, she never said judges can’t be biased that’s what I was calling Broche out on, or see my comment to Brooks way down there where brooks brooks’ed.

Brett clearly has gone down on his wife, no matter how she identifies, it still counts.
He’s never eaten at White Castle?
I haven’t. We have krystal, which based on no evidence or explanation, I’m claiming to be superior.
You are wrong.
All I know is people rave about in and out and it’s not great. I’m extrapolating the same for White Castle. Also Florida has the best BBQ and pizza. The classiest circumcisions too.
They are basically the same thing, just Krystal has mustard for no good reason by default.
If White Castle is anything like Krystals it’s acceptably mediocre and you can taste the onions for days.
Well then, sounds like krystal is superior, because it’s tasty and the onions are perfectly balanced.
Both are hardened grease on a roll with onions. De gustibus and all of that but seriously those things are barely related to a burger.
IN ‘N’ OUT IS AWESOME! ANYONE WHO SAYS OTHERWISE IS A LOWER FORM OF LIFE THAN A SUGARFREE CHARACTER!
INO would be improved by not drenching their buns with grease, and adding mayo and bacon as options. That would raise it to ok burger.
I thought it was White Castles that were in ‘n’ out.
I see little difference in the flavor, but WC turns into the worst smelling farts within an hour of eating.
+1 Krystal.
“…but WC turns into the worst smelling farts within an hour…”

A federal judge denied former Trump adviser Roger Stone’s request that she recuse herself from a potential new trial, saying in an order Sunday that there was no factual or legal basis for Stone’s claims.
The judge, Amy Berman Jackson, of U.S. District Court in Washington, sentenced Stone to three years and four months in prison last week for obstructing a congressional investigation into Russia’s meddling in the 2016 presidential election.
——-
In Stone’s motion to have Jackson removed from the case, his lawyers pointed to comments she made during Stone’s sentencing, when she said jurors had “served with integrity under difficult circumstances.”
“The Court’s ardent conclusion of ‘integrity’ indicates an inability to reserve judgment on an issue which has yet been heard,” the documents claim.
——-
Without factual or legal support, Jackson wrote, Stone’s effort to disqualify her appeared to be “nothing more than an attempt to use the Court’s docket to disseminate a statement for public consumption that has the words ‘judge’ and ‘biased’ in it.”
Strictly on the up and up, it was. No reasonable person could believe otherwise. Now shut up, Stone, before you get slapped with a contempt charge.
Every time I consider that I might possibly vote for Trump as the lesser evil in November, I’m reminded as to why I can’t.
The protection they’re talking about being removed is the one that’s been in place since 2014 that prohibits DOJ funds from being used to federally prosecute cases involving legal medical marijuana.
More leaks, eh?
More sources close to Trump?
Meh.
I don’t trust the anonymous stuff. When it’s a named person still in his administration, which it is here, it’s different.
And when just a week ago he was lamenting that we don’t execute drug dealers, I tend to believe he has a hard on drugs stance.
To be honest, I assumed any stance he took on the matter was going to be in line with his base. If he were planning to do it (IF) it would be in the second term.
Trump is a 70 year old teetotaler. This isn’t surprising although I’d hoped for better.
“prohibits DOJ funds from being used to federally prosecute cases involving legal medical marijuana”
I’d say that ship sailed long ago when they barred firearm ownership from MMJ card holders.
I don’t think purchasing firearms has been barred from MMJ holders. It’s just a felony that many/most of them don’t realize since the background check clears fine.
Some CA prosecutor with half a brain and no conscience is finally going to put it together and start matching up CA firearm registrations with MMJ holder lists. I think a few may have even started doing this.
I don’t think purchasing firearms has been barred from MMJ holders.
I think the form asks if you use illegal drugs. Pot is illegal federally, so if you are using pot, you either answer truthfully (and can’t buy) or you lie (and commit a crime).
Yup, question 11(e), which also specifically says “just cause its legal under state law doesn’t mean its legal under federal law”.
Meh. Just buy it face to face and avoid the whole thing.
The form does. The vendor even helpfully pointed out the MMJ counts, though it was in VA so I don’t know why they bothered.
I meant though that there’s no obstruction or prevention to purchasing firearms for MMJ holders. You’ll still pass your background check. I imagine the regular joe hasn’t thought through the federal vs. state legality issue and probably doesn’t even bother reading the form.*
*I think there was discussion on this before and the general consensus is that Glibs are the last group of people on earth (besides lawyers and possibly Bogleheads) who thoroughly read a form before signing. I didn’t think this was true until I met my wife, who I now must read all documents for before she’s allowed to sign
For context, she misspelled her own name on our marriage license. Fortunately, I caught it before we submitted it after she made fun of me for insisting on proofreading the form.
Can’t blame her for trying to null the marriage.
It asked if I have been convicted of a felony, not if I’ve commited one.
I meant though that there’s no obstruction or prevention to purchasing firearms for MMJ holders.
I’m surprised you can answer “yes” to a question that is, essentially, “are you violating federal law?” and still buy a firearm. I thought that would be disabling. Otherwise, why have it?
I’m explaining this poorly. Answering no on the drug usage generally doesn’t matter unless you have a record that can be used against you. In that case, the background check will fail and provide a bar to gun ownership. You won’t be able to purchase the gun no matter what you selected for 11(e).
Not so with MMJ holders. They will pass the background check and pickup their firearm after selecting “no” for 11(e). Their record of drug use (the MMJ registration) did not provide a bar. Only, there’s a record of their drug use now that a prosecutor will match up to their firearm registration retrospectively.
It’s kind of like the same with gun gifts. If you are buying a gun as a gift for your wife, adult child, etc., you have to click no on the form. Someone, certainly not me, received a firearm as a wedding present from a close friend. I remember some poor guy bought a gun as a gift for his father and made the mistake of leaving a record about it on Facebook or someplace like that. Prosecutor put it together and he faced a good deal of jail time. No record and no one would have known. There’s no bar to purchasing a gun as a gift, just retrospective prosecution.
They will pass the background check and pickup their firearm after selecting “no” for 11(e).
What happens if you truthfully answer “yes”? Can you still get the gun?
What happens after somebody matches your gun background check (with the answer “no”) with your MMJ registration?
He can’t be that dense can he? That would definitely cost him votes in November.
/please don’t actually answer my question
It’s definitely dumb move since MJ laws are changing by popular vote in most states.
It’s a long time until November.

The Eels are a good band. I’ve listened to them quite a bit the last few months.
From Brochettaward’s link:
“Judges cannot be ‘biased’ and need not be disqualified if the views they express are based on what they learned while doing the job they were appointed to do.”
So- if the judge thinks you’re guilty, that’s all that really matters?
“I’ve seen a lot of your type come through here. All said they didn’t do it. Most got the chair, cause they deserved it.”
“Felt I owed it to them”
Judges cannot be ‘biased’
Ah. So the left sees no reason to attempt to stack the supreme court.
Any judge who says that should be summarily removed from the bench. What they “learn” while judging covers a hell of a lot of ground, some of which they should absolutely leave at the courthouse door. It also begs the very relevant question of what they actually do learn while judging, which itself is influenced, if not controlled, but their preconceptions.
Maybe you should be more concerned about humans.
State officials have complained the Trump administration’s proposed rules don’t do enough to protect endangered species.
Late last year, fulfilling a campaign promise by the president, the administration announced a plan to divert water to California farmers and would change the way the Endangered Species Act was applied.
However, an analysis completed by some experts and federal biologists found the administration’s proposed plan jeopardized the future of endangered fish.
“We are challenging the federal biological opinions, which do not currently govern water project operation in the delta, to protect highly imperiled fish species close to extinction,” California Governor Gavin Newsom said.
It is not our job to save any and all species. We should only do so privately and insofar as it is a benefit to us. For instance, we eat cows, therefor there will never be a shortage of cows.
I think Clinton had the best solution.

Hero of the revolution
Pete Buttigieg shared an emotional moment with a young supporter in Denver on Saturday night.
“Thank you for being so brave,” the boy, later identified as 9-year-old Zachary Ro, wrote in a question submitted via fishbowl during the presidential hopeful’s Saturday rally, “Would you help me tell the world I’m gay, too? I want to be brave like you.”
Zachary, who attended the rally with his parents, joined the former South Bend, Indiana, mayor on stage. He presented Buttigieg with a bracelet, which the Democratic hopeful put on.
“I don’t think you need a lot of advice for me on bravery. You seem pretty strong to me,” Buttigieg, who is gay, told Zachary. “It took me a long time to figure out how to tell even my best friend that I was gay, let alone to go out there and tell the world and to see you willing to come to terms with who you are in a room full of 1,000 people, thousands of people you’ve never met that’s, that’s really something.”
Buttigieg took the opportunity to tell Zachary, “a couple things that might be useful.”
“The first thing is that it won’t always be easy, but that’s okay, because you know who you are. And that’s really important, because when you know who you are, you have a center of gravity that can hold you together when all kinds of chaos is happening around you,” he said.
Totally spontaneous, I’m sure.
The kid probably isn’t even gay.
He didn’t publicly come-out as gay until 2015.
Unless he hit puberty at the very early age of 9 (which isn’t impossible, just highly unlikely) then, no, I don’t think he’s gay. At least, not yet.
Still, count on Buttigieg to assume the gender of the “boy”, who is probably not gay at all, but instead identifies as a girl with funny feelings down there in the locker room after PE.
There is no kid – it’s a 35 year old midget.
that’s really something
Child abuse?
I know kids have been used as political props essentially forever, but it really seems to have gone to 11 in the past few years (Parkland, Greta, Mayor Pete’s friend, Warren’s Veto-wielding-on-cabinet-positions teen, etc).
They’re hiding behind them. It’s insulation from criticism.

I’ve been on medical marijuana for two weeks now. Only taking it at night. Jesus Christ this stuff works miracles (when I can get a steady dose. I really wish Florida allowed gummies). My anxiety disorder is pegged to 11 nearly all the time. Generally I fall asleep by taking benzos and just being too tired to care that I’m anxious. This is the only medication I’ve taken in 20+ years of taking psychiatric medications that actually helps me relax. I’d forgotten what that was like.
Good for you!
That’s good to hear. Out of curiosity have you looked into psilocybin studies? Sounds like a lot of promise coming from them.
I’m very familiar with psilocycbin studies. I’d argue much better for depression than anxiety, but can work for both. Both in macro and micro doses.
Looked into that and also into MDMA and LSD studies. One day, I hope.

Also, it seemingly does nothing for my anxiety, but I’m happy it helps others. I don’t know why drug warriors can’t feel the same.
Yeah, the shatter I get doesn’t help me fall asleep, at all. It may even interfere a bit, but on balance it’s a plus in the evening.

Interesting
Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas in an unusual move on Monday issued a dissent that rebuked a decision that he authored 15 years ago.
Thomas on Monday explained how his views on the power of federal administrative agencies have evolved since he penned the 2005 decision in case known as Brand X, which reinforced a legal doctrine that has increasingly faced criticism from conservatives.
——-
“Although I authored Brand X, ‘it is never too late to ‘surrende[r] former views to a better considered position,’” Thomas wrote, borrowing a line from a 1950 case. “Brand X appears to be inconsistent with the Constitution, the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), and traditional tools of statutory interpretation.”
The court’s decision not to take up the newer case means it failed to garner votes from the requisite four justices.
Like Brand X, that newer case, Howard Baldwin v. U.S., raised issues related to so-called Chevron deference. That legal principle stems from a 1984 case and instructs courts to defer to interpretations by federal agencies when guidance from Congress is vague.
Thomas’s opinion on Monday puts him in league with the many conservative critics who blame the 1984 ruling in Chevron v. NRDC with helping to grow and empower the federal bureaucracy.
“Chevron compels judges to abdicate the judicial power without constitutional sanction,” Thomas wrote on Monday, adding, “Chevron also gives federal agencies unconstitutional power.”
As Twain said (more or less), “Only fools and dead men never change their opinions.”
Back when BOOOOSH was in power it was assumed that the bureaucracy was on the side of the Republicans.
The Bureaucracy is on the Side of the Bureaucracy.
I refer you to “Yes, Minister” for an explaination of why.

So at least four of them are still happy with the monstrous, unconstitutional administrative state.

Well Trump likely only opposes it because they don’t like him, alas.

If Trump somehow managed to appoint four more judges, you might end up with a razor slim 5-4 majority that could roll back some things, if they weren’t dedicated to upholding precedent.

Monday on CNN’s “New Day,” Rep. Mike Quigley (D-IL) commented on the Axios report that White House officials “assembled detailed lists of disloyal government officials to oust — and trusted pro-Trump people to replace them.”
Quigley said President Donald Trump “wants a team of sycophants” working for him rather than “a team of rivals.”
“I think the public should read it this way: the president wants a team of sycophants instead of a team of rivals, and that should be scary,” Quigley warned.
Remind me of all the people past presidents let work for them who were intent on overthrowing the president.
Or the public can read it this way: The executive can appoint people who he believes will carry out his agenda rather than undermining it.
He does want a team of sycophants around him. It’s true. But it’s also not really different than every President before him.
The most annoying thing about the Trump Presidency is the establishment screaming about the things he’s doing (most of which differ little from every other President in recent memory) and how they’ll be the doom of our nation.
And they’ll ignore the same behavior from President Warren.
And they’ll ignore the same behavior from President Warren.-
You’re really trying to get me to pull the lever for Trump.
They won’t just ignore it from Warren. They’ll celebrate it. They’ll say she’s handpicked a team that is on the same wavelength and primed to carry out her many plans.

Interesting article by Mises himself during WWII
For a supposedly individualistic and plural ideology these German liberals sounded pretty conformist and collectivist. Every German needs to be taught the proper German dialect and proper religion.
Interesting the emphasis on inevitability of history and education…
The Germans invented modern collectivism. The commies, the fascists, the democratic socialists all originated there.
And Fichte (German) wrote the manifesto for public education at the end of the 18th century, specifically with socialization of the individual to the state as the goal.
Fascism came from Italy.
Fair enough, but it drew heavily on Hegel and Fichte,.
True and to argue against myself Mussolini was originally a communist IIRC.
Yeah, but they weren’t very good at it.
WUR MUH TRAINS GON
The French put a very similar emphasis on speaking “proper” French, which made sense when you realized that, even in the late 19th Century, there were many areas within France where you could walk a dozen klicks from where you were born and raised and not understand anything your ostensible neighbours were saying. One of the biggest problems the French Army had during WWI were recruits who could not communicate with each other or with their commanding NCOs or officers.
The French Republicans also supported public schools to defeat the Church and they blamed Napoleon III’s election on the uneducated provincial peasantry.
The French Republicans . . . blamed Napoleon III’s election on the uneducated provincial peasantry.

Gun Control Bills Still Inching Forward In VA Legislature
The red flag law is the only one that actually matters. If that passes, every single gun owner who has a crazy proggy nephew or aunt or who at one time posted on social media something vaguely threatening will have the Sword of Damocles hanging over their head. Especially when they set up some kind of “anonymous report” system, because of the threat of White Supremacist Terrorists retaliating against Goodthinking Citizens Reporting Dangers.
The red flag law is the only one that actually matters.
They all matter. Red flag laws just matter the most.
Isn’t it interesting that they have already resulted in bodies hitting the ground, and allofasudden “If it saves just one life . . .” isn’t a categorical imperative any more.
One gun a month is an infringement, standard capacity mag bans are an infringement, bans on modern rifles are an infringement. They’re a problem, they need to be stopped, all true.
But the red flag laws, especially once they “streamline the process to help gun owners in crisis” with some kind of anonymous reporting, is the end to gun ownership in safety. Next time you’re arguing politics with your snowflake neighbor, all they have to do is drop the dime, and your best case scenario is being out thousands of dollars and being unable to own guns for months.
It is by far the most monstrous proposal the gun grabbers have ever made. Its something Laventy Beria would have clapped in gleeful delight at the subtle genius.
If the body hitting the ground belongs to a gun owner then that’s just icing on the cake. You see they, the more radical ones at least, hate us and want to see us either oppressed or dead.
Yep, and when the gun owners dies the media will be in full court press talking about “officers tried to take him into custody for his own safety at 3 AM, but he refused to drop his gun and was shot by officers.”
Mark my words, if it passes, the next step will be to open up the public records laws, so they can start doxxing people more efficiently. Selective terror via bureaucracy. They’ll go to gun ranges, provoke people in the parking lot, get them redfaced and yelling, and use the footage as evidence for a red flag claim. They’ll write down the license plates at gun shows, and use fellow travelers at DMV to locate addresses and provoke incidents. Some dad yelled at a kids soccer game and is a known gun owner? Red flag claim. The new de facto standard for gun owners will be 100% Zenlike calm at all times and places. No yelling “fuck the ref” at a hockey game. No getting in a tussle at a bar.
I have never been more terrified of a gun control law than this red flag law. Hell, who on this very website hasn’t made a woodchipper joke, or said something about watering the three of liberty? That’s now violent threats, grounds for a red flag case.

Why are Hollywood actors so leftist? They travel a lot, get drunk a lot, snort lots of coke, have lots of sex outside of traditional marriage, buy Chinese goods and have Mexican gardeners.
Because they know there are millions of equally talented people competing for their jobs and thus their breakthrough represents an unearned boon. They feel they didn’t work for their wealth, and therefore no one else did either.
All of that plus it is their environment. It’s easier to go along to get along and if you already don’t feel that strongly about things then it’s nice and easy to parrot the bs, even if you think it’s not exactly right.
Think that’s the biggest factor. These people would rather die than be considered unfashionable, and in 2020 America anything other than woke leftism is tremendously gauche.

Then call her on that, don’t claim that she said “Judges can’t be ‘biased’” and leave it at that.
That “if clause” was nothing but bullshit self-justification.
“We (judges) are better than you, and therefor not subject to bias.”
Fuck you and the broom you rode in on, Your Honor.
Again that is not what she said, where in here full statement is the sentiment that Judges are better than us? where does she say they are not subject to bias? She says they can’t be ‘biased’ and called to step down because of certain criteria, that would imply they can be ‘biased’ and asked to step down for other criteria. It’s really not that hard of a distinction to grok, unless of course your preconceived biases have you reading her word as you already want to read them.
If you really believed that, you would have quoted her nonsense, instead of obliquely referring to it. This is one of the ways we know your troll act is just an act. Here, I’ll quote it for you:
So if the prosecution shows her completely inadmissible evidence, such as the defendant hires prostitutes, or he cheated on one of the judges sorority sister in college she is claiming that she is completely allowed to base her decisions on how to rule based on facts literally not in evidence. Or rumors. Or whatever Rachel Maddow tweets during the trial.

Mustard is the only acceptable sandwich lubricant.

I’ll look out for that. My wife makes the homemade stuff sometimes and it’s really frigging good. Maille from France, if you can ever find it, is awesome. What the hell else are you gonna dip your fries in?
(Actually ketchup and mayo combo is proven by the science to be the best French fry condiment)
The same science used by Greta?
The true answer is that it’s a tie between sriracha and sambal oelek.
Greta also hates mayo. You two will have much to talk about. Sriracha is only good for pho, fried rice and some other Asian foods. Sambal olek is good for the same while being somewhat harder to find.
Mayo and sriracha for sweet potato fries, or GTFO.
They are fucking great on fries. Great. Go to the world’s best fry place, the Vlasmse Frites stand off Leidsestraat in Amsterdam and that’s what they’ll give you.
Sriracha is American, just like potatoes. Pus is French, and fuck those guys.
Pus. Sheesh. You people are retarded.
The judges would also accept mayo and Korean gochujang.
Maille from France, if you can ever find it, is awesome.
If you can ever find it? D00d, what kind of Hellhole do you live in? I’m in Edmonton, Alberta (regarded as Lesser Upper Buttfuck, Canada by most people to the east or west of here), and my local bog-standard grocery store has at least a half-dozen different varieties of Maille available year-round.
You live in Canuckistan. They likely have passed a law that bilingual mayo is the law of the land.
Seriously tho, you can find Maille mustards here, but I have never seen their mayo.
We also get their pickles. Their cornichons are transcendent, dammit.
Can confirm.
I didn’t know they do mustard and mayo – will have to keep an eye out.
Heilman’s, the Third Reich’s favorite sandwich spread.

Forget the mayo. White “chocolate” is NOT chocolate. It is wax. It is not fit for human consumption. It is an abomination and an insult to true (by which I mean dark) chocolate.
Okay.

Football spoiler:
Reds fans, it was squeaky bum time, but your “magic number” is now 12.
Reds are baseball. The football team is the Bengals. Semi-pro, of course.
There is nothing semi pro about the Bengals. Mike Brown is a master of football. He got the taxpayers to buy him a stadium. Then when someone else was making money on parking by undercutting him, he got us to buy him that lot as well. The concessiosns stands at the stadium are worked by volunteers raising money for various charities. That way he doesn’t have to worry about labor laws or minimum wage. He is a Pro to the core…. Oh you meant playing the game? Nevermind.
Some ex Bengals player was on the NFL Network a few weeks ago talking about how at the beginning of training camps the players had to choose from a pile of used jock straps for practice, so most players just bought their own. Every penny counts, I guess.
The more I hear about how that team operates, the more respect I have for Marvin Lewis. How he made that team occasionally a solid playoff team for all those years is a wonder.
I hope they get it done before Man City – i.e. with the next 4 matches. I don’t like these wobbly performances lately.
Hmm, @Watford, vs. Bournemouth, @ Everton, vs. Crystal Palace. I’ll give them two wins at home, at least a point @Watford; Everton is a push. So 7 points.
ManCity: @ United, vs Burnley, @Chelsea. City probably drop points against Chelsea (call it a draw) and win the other 2.
So, that would be 9 of the 12 they need. Even if that’s the way it goes & they lose to City, two of their next three games are home vs. Aston Villa & home vs. Burnley. It’s hard to see LFC not winning at least one of those. And, no, I can’t jinx b/c I’m not a supporter.
“well, there’s next year” is a common mantra in Cincinnati for our sports teams.

Welcome to Costco, I love you.
I would say you need both. Most should use higher education as a vocational school. A few can use it to add to the stock of human knowledge.
I doubt the British people are in the mood to shed too many tears for a bunch of overpaid and entitled jackasses. Let ‘em strike.
What proportion of Germans go to college? When I looked it up, I discovered that it was much lower than in the US. It’s almost like making it “free” will necessitate some rationing.
I don’t know about now, but it used to be that the German government decided what you were fit for based on your high school scores. You couldn’t just go to college and take philosophy if you scored like a union drone worker.
Pretty sure it’s still like that. I believe Germany has a large postgraduate vocational school system – many of the high school students who don’t qualify for college go to those.
Yep. To a somewhat lesser extent, the French do similar “streaming.” Also the Swiss — I knew a young lady who came to study at Uni in Edmonton, Canada because the government educational authorities in Switzerland would not let her apply to universities there. Turned out she was an excellent Uni student, and ended up doing grad and post-grad studies and now works as a geologist. Had she stayed in the Swiss post-secondary educational stream, Lord knows where she would’ve ended up . . .
Although not every government does things like the Germans do, the percentage of university students is generally lower and I’m pretty sure it’s not about tuition – at least not entirely. In Australia it was cultural in addition to academic. Leaving school at 15 to take an apprenticeship was not considered a failure. I would say we need fewer Americans going to college, not more.
I’ll agree that fewer people should go to college, but one of the big attractions of free college for young Americans is that everyone will now be able to go.
Similarly, when my son was born in Austria, my wife shared a room with three other women. When our daughter was born in the US she had a private room. When Americans hear “free” they expect that they’ll still get the same level of service, which is going to make it impossible to drive down the cost via rationing like happens in other countries.
I don’t disagree. My comment was more on your point above about free being the main gateway. When I went to college in Oz, it actually was “free” as in no tuition. The % of people who went to college was below 20.
Out of curiosity, were room and board and books free too? Or was it only tuition.
My understanding is that in Europe the student still needs to pay for those expenses, but because a lot of them live at home it’s not a problem.
Most lived at home b/c the major universities are in major cities. There were no dorms in the same way as in the US but “colleges” like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grace_College,_University_of_Queensland
Friends of mine who did not live at home shared houses/apartments, etc.
Books had to be paid for. But, there was a pretty robust second-hand book market.
My main point – and I don’t think we’re in substantial disagreement – is that “free” college doesn’t necessarily push more people to go to college. At least not by itself. There is a substantial socio-cultural component.
I’m not disputing anything you’re saying. I was just picking your brain at this point. I think that the kids here who hear “free college” are missing a lot of details, like fewer kids going to college and only tuition being free, not books or living expenses. In my experience of paying for my son’s college at a Cal State University, the biggest expense is room and board. Tuition is only about $6K/year, which is a pretty good deal in my opinion. The other expenses are double that. People can do college pretty cheaply by going to a state school and living at home, but they have unrealistic expectations, and the politicians won’t do anything to dispel them.
We’re important! You need us!

Whatever happened to neutron bombs? Ah, the good ol’ days . . .
I actually was okay with neutron bombs. Look at the reconstruction savings for the losing country. One could even say it’s being merciful by limiting the damage. I wouldn’t say that but one could.
Think of all the stuff that doesn’t get wrecked, great for the victors as well,
So a win-win, if you will.
Not so much, as many of the structures will become inherently radioactive. Neutrons have a way of doing that that good ol’ fashioned gamma rays dont.

The Koreans aren’t much better in regards to pizza:
‘It can have figs and snails; sweet potato crusts; sausage, calamari, and cream cheese; and it certainly wouldn’t be entirely unthinkable to put all of these ingredients together.’

?
“Pizza Hut Korea’s fall release, “Star Edge Pizza,” is shaped like a multi-pointed star with the points crammed full of cinnamon apple nut or cranberry-flavored cream cheese, and a surf and turf topping of sausage, shrimp, calamari, bacon, steak topping, and broccoli.”

Sanders was fairly good on guns when he was content with holding a senatorial position from mostly rural Vermont. As you’d expect, his national office aspirations have caused his views on the issue to “evolve” meaning he didn’t believe a damn thing he was saying.
See also: Michael Bloomberg, who is veering sharply to the left of where he was just a few years ago on every issue other than guns (he was already there).
