There can be overlap - restitution can be a criminal penalty, but it can also be available as a civil remedy, no?

Corrosive stories like this come out after a death. It will be impossible for you to do this, but those of us that love and respect you have to tell you from personal experience "let it go". Our experience also says you will have to chew this rumination for a bit, but you'll get through i...

Mine too! I love this! I enjoyed chatting with your dad at the MetoDC meetup.

I think there’s a difference. Blackface has no redeeming qualities and is therefore indefensible. For some drag artists (not all, I don’t think), their art is tied to their sexual identity.

When guys like Giuliani do it, though, it’s just offensive.

And I see this on a VA FAQ: Veteran participation in state marijuana programs does not affect eligibility for VA care and services. VA providers can and do discuss marijuana use with Veterans as part of comprehensive care planning, and adjust treatment plans as necessary. https://www.publichealth.v...

Not that any of this matters to me. I can’t possess [marijuana] or use it since I’m retired from the military. And I don’t think I would even if I could. But I’m glad the folks who want it can have it. I haven't been following this thread, and just saw your post from three years ago. Is this still ...

I have a bank account with USAA, and I get all my insurance through them. This makes me happy. I can understand why a bank would not want to be caught up in an obvious grift.

Also, too, why isn’t Harry the one who’s being asked for the proof, since any claim to succession flows from him and not his wife? Back in the olden olden days they'd watch the couple doing "the act." This is the almost only way you can almost tell for sure whose offspring it is. Ew. Even...

Watched Baby Reindeer last night and this afternoon. What a ride! I talked to my husband about it. He has a hard time with stuff like this. He asked if I would watch it again. He wanted to see it. I warned him that it was disturbing. He made it through three episodes, then was like, OK, just tell m...

Enjoy Savannah! We love it there

A Gentleman in Moscow on Paramount +. I absolutely loved this book, and the series (so far) is incredibly faithful and so well-done.

Ok someone else needs to be traumatized with me. Just finished Baby Reindeer. I HAD NO IDEA. I posts about how good it was and finished something else up so I though why not. I don't normally watch stuff that has "comedy" in the description but hoo boy. what a ride Loved it! There was not...

Ripley on Netflix (Two stars) This is a remake of the 1999 movie The Talented Mr Ripley, told in eight parts, and presented entirely in black and white. The cinematography is beautiful. It was a good choice for this story, and it was well done. They honored the great B&W films of the past with ...

Harvey Weinstein’s 2020 rape conviction was overturned Thursday in New York, making way for a...

This is incomprehensible to me. How does appellate counsel challenge something on appeal if the arguments of counsel and the comments of the judge are not memorialized? If there's a chance to correct/augment the record, appellate counsel may be able to marshal a better "recollection" of w...

- A little light on his role as explainer of law, but thorough on What is Evidence? Judge often explain what the law is at the end, right before deliberations. I presume the concept is the jurors should be focused now on the facts (and deciding what they are), so they can later focus on applying th...

She should fly Air India sometime. She’d be looking back fondly on this experience. No information, or false information, is what they’re best at.
