Joseph Kahn says Avatar had no cultural impact because gays don't like it
Music video director Joseph Kahn suggested the Avatar film franchise has had "no cultural impact" as gay people don't "give a f**k" about it.

We were down one player for our regular heavy board gaming group. Another player brought her new boyfriend. Everyone enjoyed the game, but this means we’re going to be one player too many for future Arcs games. I figure we aim for Diplomacy next time to expedite breakup with the new boyfriend…

Just left the new Nuremberg movie and I have a question for friends with more immediate access to good research materials. There were a couple of moments of angry gaveling by the lead *British* member of the tribunal m. I presume this did not happen?

The federal supremacy clause immunity for official duties comes from a case where a Marshal shot a man while defending a Supreme Court Justice. Just think, we could have had an interesting test case where a state official shot an ICE agent while defending a judge.

Going on a multi-page screed about George Soros in a case where he's not at all a party is... not great, Jerry.
And, yes, people are absolutely going to point out that you're behavior is well beyond what's proper for a federal judge. This is not an effective way to get ahead of that criticism.

OK, I can't find a good GIF version, so you'll just have to imagine Jackson Bentley stumbling into the aftermath of Lawrence of Arabia's attack on the Turkish column saying "Jesus wept"
NEWS: During a hearing in federal court in VA, prosecutors confirmed that the operative indictment in the case against James Comey was never shown to or voted on by the entire grand jury before it was presented in open court.
Defense counsel argued that’s a complete bar to further prosecution

Trouble with calling this out as a double standard is that Kelly et al. can turn it around. “Why do people believe children can consent to gender affirming care but not sex with grown men?”
These are two very different things. It’s not a good comparison.

Teenagers are old enough to have sex with middle aged men. They are not old enough to be trans.

He was arrested and charged with 10 counts of unlawful distribution of sexually explicit AI images under LA Rev Stat § 14:73.14, but I guess you can also call that "nothing" if you want to farm more outraged responses to your skeet...
A middle school boy created deepfake AI CSAM of his fellow classmate, a 13 year old girl. The girl pleaded with the school but they did nothing and instead put her on a bus with the perpetrator. She ended up hitting him and was expelled but nothing happened to the boy.

I bet this is part of the reason trust and safety is twitchy about “threats” right now. Probably tired of dealing with the Feds on cases like this.
Alas, the account has been suspended, so it's not possible to find the context that post supposedly appears in. Read in isolation how are you supposed to know who the target of that "threat" even is?
