  1. Hope he's doing well and fully recovers. And it was a touchdown.
  2. I guess I'm not following the logic of this Levy guy. He said Baldoni was but now Levy clarifies that it was just an "argumentative move" made by the lawyers. okay fine but what is the "tell" here? The lawyers are pretty adamantly denying that any sexual harassment happened, so the "tell" can't be that the "argumentative move" is his admission of guilt. Levy was trying to say that Baldoni or his lawyers are out-of-touch with how sexual harassment works, maybe? Anyway it seems they are currently in a fight about the subpoena
  3. I wonder how many of his IVF penpals are black, brown, or Asian
  4. THR is all in on this story https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general-news/dana-carvey-lorne-michaels-intrigued-lively-baldoni-legal-battle-1236143357/
  5. For me it's more about how all the polls we followed religiously (thanks @Js1) and the lack of 2016- and 2020-level enthusiasm based on yard signs and rallies in empty rodeo arenas were forecasting that you'd much rather have been in Kamala's position than Trump's. How Anne Selzer was getting D+3 in Iowa. How there was no sign of the Dobbs effect slowing down. With all of that in mind, it's hard to see how seven coinflips in a row would all come up tails. I think that's the point they're making about the swing states. While I haven't read too many of the pollster-focused post mortems I really doubt that after 2016 any pollster was under-overcorrecting for MAGA. I think it's worth looking into, but we have more urgent battles to fight right now.
  6. The first whiff of it I saw came from some youtube drama. One of the MeidasTouch contributors Jennifer Denson ended up leaving the company because they wouldn't let her cover these theories.
  7. https://newrepublic.com/article/166725/thomas-bivens-boule-egbert-decision
  8. This is high up on Thomas's kill list. He wants total immunity for the stasi
  9. Fox's post game interview impressed me, and he's been impressing me the whole time since he got here actually. He says, and I believe him when he said, the team is trying to get a W every night they play. In a stacked conference that might not be enough to make the play-in, but maybe it will be. As long as the Hawks are in the lottery I'm happy.
  10. I'm pretty consistent about shitting on Trump and Elon, and calling a party that's been asleep at the wheel a lifestyle brand is far from my "hottest anger." I will disagree on the kowtowing to oligarchs. Both parties are guilty of that.
  11. It's only a false move if you think they're playing chess with you. Project 2025 is a playbook for authoritarianism, which is taking us somewhere from which no amount of viral clapbacks and voter outreach can return us. The enemy is not making a mistake because they no longer will be accountable to the voters.
  12. He's weird and I hate him too (even more than I hate Stephen A Smith) but he's not wrong in his assessment of the party as a lifestyle brand.
  13. Celebrities. They're just like us!
  14. I think someone sufficiently motivated and with sufficient support could probably find a way.
  15. If they're unwilling to meet the moment, they should be replaced. These excuses completely undermine everything they tried to say at the DNC about how they're the opposite of Trump. Opposition parties are not supposed to play patty cake with the fucking fascists. Give them zero cooperation. And by the way, the institutions are dead.
  16. I haven't seen the evidence for 2024, but I think they are not above trying to steal an election. After all they even tried a violent coup.
  17. If the Dems aren't running the exact playbook the GOP ran against Obama, they are worthless. What's that playbook? Stall every fucking thing, use every lever of power imaginable. Less talk and more action. Remember how Tommy Tuberville interfered with Biden's military appointments? If they're not doing that, they should have already resigned yesterday as far as I'm concerned.
  18. I 100% believe someone with pure intentions can still make someone else uncomfortable. In this particular HR complaint I don't think either side is in the wrong, and for all we know Sony did privately ask Heath not to be so intense or chummy with Slate. At the end of the day, people are who they are. Christian Bale screaming at some poor crew member on set is probably just the tip of the iceberg (in fact, I've heard much worse horror stories from friends who are still working in Hollywood in various capacities). The truth is that people not getting along on movie sets is incredibly common, and I would not be shocked if HR complaints are a dime-a-dozen.
  19. You're right, the Democratic party should never be criticized even when they fail spectacularly, even when they have learned nothing from that failure, and even when they're showing no signs of life.
  20. There has been a small but vocal community of people who think the 2024 election was actually rigged. Haven't dug too much into it because it don't make much of a shit at this point, but you could be onto something.
  21. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general-news/justin-baldoni-bahai-blake-lively-legal-feud-1236142565/ This Heath guy seems like a weird dude, but if this is their other SH claim it's not on Baldoni and it's fairly weak. He's the asshole for offering to comp her lost security deposit?
  22. I think it was on the old site. One of the things I remember was that state employees (like that hag who was refusing to issue gay marriage licenses) can be sued for violating civil rights but federal agents basically can't. Qualified immunity was the main subject of the thread of course, though.
  23. Wasn't there a really long bernard thread about how federal agents can't be sued even if you cooperated with them
  24. They put MAGA hat shitheads behind the US bench that we had to look at any time the camera showed the HC. Glad they paid high prices to watch Canada break their hearts
