  1. Brown guys like Ahmed are RuINinG oUr CuLTuRE
  2. Yeah, I'm not saying UM wasn't looking the other way, seems like they probably were. But even if they weren't, I haven't seen anything that would make it easy to terminate him until she fessed up. The fact that no witnesses came forward maybe says something about the Department in and of itself. I find it hard to believe there weren't witnesses that could corroborate and flesh out the suspicions.
  3. Yeah, as noted up thread, I discovered that oakum is still pretty commonly available for use for sealing wooden joints of various types and there is a variant known as "white oakum" for sealing plumbing joints that would seem to be a predecessor to caulk.
  4. Well, he does raise sort of an interesting point. The law rightly presumes or assumes that consent is lacking in employer/employee sexual relationships (and in other situations where the power dynamics disfavor one party). This is because consent often is lacking, or at least compromised, but further that we want to penalize and deter such relationships. But that is a bit of a legal fiction that is indulged so we don't get lost in the details of every such relationship and whether there was or wasn't consent. In the absolute sense, though, both parties retain some agency, depending on the particular relationship and parties involved.
  5. Well, the kind of evidence I am referring to is documentary evidence (texts, photos, email) and witness testimony (I saw em). As long as they kept their comms off school systems (email, etc.) the University and their lawyers would have no way of legally obtaining for example cell phone records. I think there have been statements that Moore did not "cooperate" with the investigation, which would seem to mean didn't cough up his cell phone or personal PC. It would seem likely that UM also provided cell phones and service to at least Moore if not her and other staffers and it seems they would retain rights to do deep dives on those, but personal or "burner" phones and accounts would have to be voluntarily provided. There's no burden of proof for something like this until somebody sues. But the above wouldn't satisfy a criminal burden if there was any it's about 50/50 on a civil case, depending on what kind of credible excuses Moore could offer for the more objective evidence. But taking seriously adverse employment action based on evidence like the above would be somewhat dangerous for the institution and invite a civil case.
  6. Here's a question I don't know the answer to. Petit jurors are instructed to avoid media relating to their cases and are often sequestered to avoid that and other external influences. Grand jurors sit for longer periods than most petit jurors, and are charged with evaluating numerous cases, not just one. Therefore, it would be difficult and impractical to make any attempt to isolate them from media. So, I don't think they are, at all. But I don't know for sure. As we have discussed In other context, details of criminal investigations before indictment are usually kept pretty quiet and a grand jury drops out of most cases post-indictment. So, in a general case, media exposure isn't that big a deal. But it would surely seem that the media coverage of the first indictments and attendant shenanigans would make it very difficult to secure an indictment in any of these cases unless you were able somehow to assemble a purely pro-Trump grand jury.
  7. If true, this is all circumstantial evidence that seems ironclad in hindsight. Even setting aside UM's motives, if there's no more concrete evidence than the above, it's hard to justify firing based on this.
  8. I think at one point you challenged me on that notion and it's just like . . . my opinion, man. But yeah, I thought your interest in audio reproduction and acoustics was that thing for you.
  9. 2 OL is probably even more surprising.
  10. I think he's had some serious adverse health news. He's never posted anything like this. I think all this stupid decorating, the ballroom thing, and now the golf courses (and of course the fifa noble prize) is him beoming obsessed with his legacy.
  11. Regardless, Bovino out there making definitive statements when he is a complete meathead (and adjudicated liar).
  12. Yeah, this is turning into a smooth buttfucking.
  13. My word. So, I could look it up, but is Javier Bardem Hispanic?
  14. Guess our newfound block will be tested.
  15. Nothing against UW, really, but always kinda liked BSU as a scrappy underdog and that win over OU cemented that.
  16. That was the easiest one.
  17. Are we worried about Wiscy or nah? I know it's probably fair to worry about any opponent at this stage, but they are a 3-seed and Wiscy hasn't quite been Wiscy for a few years now.
  18. I dunno, man. On the baseball theory, sliding is slower. Three defenders got there anyway. Huge chance he downs himself before getting the ball across.
  19. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2025/dec/09/donald-trump/foreign-corporate-investment-18-22-trillion/ The White House website lists $9.6 trillion in investments, half of the figure President Donald Trump cites. But that $9.6 trillion includes aspirational, multi-year goals, and future purchases or sales of products, rather than only capital investments. The White House’s total includes large commitments from governments such as the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, whose pledges are multiple times larger than their countries’ annual gross domestic product, which calls the pledges’ feasibility into question.
  20. More fucking gold from the grimy little pimp.
  21. You fucking stupid cunt, the Immigration and Naturalization Act does not require citizens to carry immigration documents.
  22. It was a bigger scandal how bad we were from 1984 to 1997 or so.
  23. When you say the toilets won't flush, does that mean the water goes nowhere from the bowl? And I am sorta confused about how the tub drained through the ceiling. Was the drain sluggish/stopped and it somehow leaked around it? Or backed up into the space between floors?
