Well-meaning liability. British (derogatory). Sexual swear words are those of my employers. https://ko-fi.com/samanthawhyte

For legal reasons, Drake is only as much of a paedophile as the popular track Not Like Us says he is.

I thought this would be meh so I didn't turn the telly on ...

Sam Whyte @samwhyte.bsky.social · 19m

I suppose it's often best not to be a paedophile at all.

I think the joy would be sullied by a moral metanarrative.

Did you get her number though?

I like that there's no moral to this story except "don't get drawn into a flame war when you're an objectively worse rapper and known paedophile"

NEW: Federal judge dismisses Drake's defamation case against Kendrick Lamar storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The issue in this case is whether "Not Like Us" can reasonably be understood to convey as a factual matter that Drake is a pedophile or that he has engaged in sexual relations with minors. In light of the overall context in which the statements in the Recording were made, the Court holds that it cannot.

Where was this confidence when I was 18??

I've never yet taught the same subject twice.

Sam Whyte @samwhyte.bsky.social · 55m

People see my uni lanyard and ask "are you a teacher, then?" and they're strangers, so, sure, why not.

Charles something.

Sam Whyte @samwhyte.bsky.social · 2h

Absolutely correct.

Actually I've absolutely wanted young people to take Ketamine, but never for the same reason.
