Most delicious excerpt from the article:

(Presiding Judge) Barrett called out Peters for being “as defiant as a defendant that the court has ever seen” and said he believed Peters would do it all over again if she could. He accused her of seeking fame, despite her claims that she didn’t want attention for her actions.

He said she didn’t respect the courts, law enforcement, government officials or her colleagues, and had abused the power of her position. She didn’t take the clerk role “particularly seriously”, he said, noting she hadn’t completed certification, and that “one scandal after another followed you in your time as the clerk.”

He added, “You are no hero, you abused your position, and you’re a charlatan who used and is still using your prior position in office to peddle a snake oil that’s been proven to be junk time and time again.”

Judge Barrett from the top rope!

Suck it Peters!

If douchebaggery were a harnessable fissile energy source, these two shitcunts in close proximity could power North America for a thousand generations.

My smile grew larger with each paragraph.

But I reached near-euphoria with these masterpieces of financial journalism:

The filing also warns shareholders that Trump's involvement in the company could put it at greater risk than other social media companies.

and…

TMTG also disclosed to regulators that the company had identified "material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting" when it prepared a previous financial statement for the first three quarters of 2023.

A view of the bar at Maggy McGarry’s, an unassuming little pub in the Telegraph Hill neighborhood of San Francisco that will furnish you with a pint o’ Guinness and a Tullamore Dew neat at 9:30 on a Sunday morning, should the need arise.

Apologies for the potato quality photo; more of a PSA than anything artful.

Looking for recommendations on good quality, affordable, technical (lightweight, low cotton, high stretch) pants (no zip off legs, please) that will travel well, largely wrinkle free, and can dress up and down depending on pairings. Trying to avoid the cargo pant look. Does such a thing exist, or is it like the old saying: good cheap or fast, pick two?

If you could only re-experience from new one game (like total immersion, wide-eyed wonder-at-the-majesty-of-it-all re-experience) and had yet to pick a console (Xbox versus PlayStation), what game on which console and why? (and feel free to remark on ideal controllers, add-ons, etc.)

I was hoping Starfield might be that kind of galvanizing experience, but the reviews are pretty underwhelming. So now casting about for the real deal.

Ive responded elsewhere in this thread, and think we are otherwise aligned against this cunt, so maybe, just maybe this is a good time to give Wikipedia one of your hard earned dollars? One dollar.

Alternate headline:

“Massive shitcunt threatens to destroy the actual best part of the internet to the surprise of absolutely no one”

is what they meant to say

Incidentally, do you guys remember when this fuckhead was a darling of the left?

These are strange times.

And a special cheers to Reuters photog Jonathan Ernst who captured all of the frustration, regret, and failure of the moment in one sour expression: a sweet, sweet nectar!

Pulitzer material right there.
