Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

I read somewhere that this Supreme Court session has a record number of 5-4 decisions. Most all of which have gone to the conservatives.

This term 5-4 decisions have been about 33% (24 of 72 cases). Roberts-Kennedy-Scalia-Thomas-Alito were the block in 13 of those 24. The next closest year was 2004 when 30% were 5-4 decisions. [link]

Isn't it time for her to have a stint in Rehab? Isn't that the standard "time to lay low, honey" move?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I feel slightly calmer. It's like rage, with extra freshness.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Interrupting this Natter to bring you tales of people whose lives are Not Like Mine.

My brother tells me he's missing the GF's family vacation this year. In part because of work, but also partly "the fact that they are going to Abkhazia.... a breakaway region of Georgia where apparently there are US soldiers stationed to keep the peace...and all westerners are advised to stay the hell out or risk kidnapping... they're going because [GF's] mom wants to buy a place there... "

So instead, he's going for the aforementioned work to do some kind of training sessions in Sarajevo and Belgrade. Um, good?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Can I ask why?

Heh. I suggest your brother not eat her cooking, Brenda...
