Oh, wow. She was 1/2 of the first all-female play by play booth in professional baseball here for the Red Sox A ball team here in VA this year. She's pretty good.

Looking at the box score. Important question: who the ***** is Jean-Sebastien Dea?

No law prevents crime. Never has, never will. This is the story of humanity. Laws, and taxes now that I think of it, are the price we’ve all agreed to pay for the privilege of living in an organized and peaceful society. Yes, I’m well aware the shine is wearing off, mostly because the law is In no wise prepared to deal with money and those few who possess it, but I digress. It’s not as complicated as you make it. Indeed, to argue that a lack of consent for sexual activity/contact can be explained away in certain circumstances based upon nothing more than the perception of the offender deprives the non-consenting party of human agency. Which is and always has been the problem/the point. Minus consent, affirmatively given, sexual contact/activity/jerking it whilst blocking the only exit is a crime. End of. Teach your children this, everyone.

You guys. I’m an attorney. I work in the intake phase of the criminal justice system in my state. I will tell you now, cops are frequently beside themselves at the outcome of rape/sex assault cases. It’s serious and and it’s bad. Victims often don’t report, largely because it’s one party’s word against another, and god help her if she’s had a beer. This isn’t right. It isn’t just. It’s not pc. It’s life.

Ha, we're both wrong, he played at Harvard. I'll just sit back down.

At Boston U.

Literally the first time I’ve ever seen that. Wild.

I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm enjoying it, but it is astounding how bad this Man United team is.

They're only ever pretending to be the party of fiscal responsibility when Democrats are in charge and/or the White House. Same as it ever was.

Correct, but they do have to be cap compliant when the season starts, minus LTIR.

40k, if my math is right.

LTIR doesn’t give cap relief until the season starts, so... you still need a move.

So this just happened... one down.

Alright. I’m about done with Unai Emery. Who ever could have thought that the guy who couldn’t turn all the filthy lucre available to him at PSG into results could take the reins at Arsenal and have that go well? Taking one of the most expensively assembled teams in the world and sending them out to present the ball, and indeed scoring chances, to the opposition like a female dog in heat... ugh.

Quite evident from the time stamp. Humor... aw, forget it.

It’s well worth watching if only to enjoy Kathy Bates chewing on the scenery...

So when I went and had the allergy test done where they cut your back open in 50 places and drop various stuff in to see what happens the doctor was basically like: “you’re lucky it wasn’t crab.” I also loved crab. WTAF?

This happened to me with shrimp/shellfish in general. Loved it until my early 30's, when I ate a big plate of shrimp pasta for dinner one night and ended up in the ER with hives covering my body and my airway closing off. I loved seafood, now, having been informed by several doctors that it will cause me to die should i partake in it again, I'm left with painful memories...

To the bold: I'm sure they promised, but this is not what companies do or have ever done when tax rates drop. They hoard cash when it becomes cheaper to do so, and plow money back through the company in the form of capital investment and hiring, among other avenues, when tax rates go up. There was never going to be another outcome.

Also: all the aqueducts the Roman Empire ever constructed can not possibly ever have carried as much water as the Canadian (national) media does for the leafs. It’s gross.

Watching a sublimely mediocre ManYoo team roll over a completely inept Chelsea was kind of entertaining. I think (and I know it’s one game but still) I’ve overestimated Chelsea’s ceiling and underestimated ManYoo’s... it’ll be interesting to see which one finishes fifth and which one finishes sixth...

NBC's pathetic knob-polishing of Christian Pulisic, to the extent that the broke into the Arsenal game with a graphic informing us all he was gong to be on the bench today, is just the worst. I've always wanted the kid to do well but man, I'd now rather happily not hear about him ever again. Now, to watch the Battle of the Dumpster Fires (ManYoo - Chelsea).
