Updated my @NYTGames app so I could see the crossword puzzle clues and it erased my entire spelling bee history. Beware!

@ub_jeremy I get that you’re reporting what happened. And including a little about their reaction to the verdict is good! The public does want to know! But there is *more than 2 paragraphs of it.* Surely someone relevant could have commented on the case.

@ub_jeremy What is going ON with this coverage? Is someone at the U-B friends with this guy? It’s all about how sad the rapist’s wife is! I am sure it’s hard on her, but the victim had to go through two trials and the u-b shaming her. And why no quote from the prosecutor or anything?

One thing they got right was explaining why on EARTH friends of the accused testified about his sexual reputation. That would have been questions 7 through 7 million.

WTF is this lede? He’s not on trial for having an affair, he’s on trial for rape!

5. The defense asked the witness about her demeanor in a video. Why? What was noteworthy about it?

6. Did the prosecution cross-examine any of these witnesses? What about?

@gunsnrosesgirl3 Aren’t blacklights UV light though? Because I have definitely seen people in black light and they didn’t have those markings.

@vandroidhelsing For sure! People should do what makes them happy. But the “by the time you’re 30” thing is prescriptive and those are not *better* than a friend group that only talks about # van life or Bravo. And if you ban politics from finance are you just talking about your day trades? Yawn

@vandroidhelsing @RememberKoomVly Right? FFS I’d rather hear what you thought of your latest Netflix binge than hear about investments.

Sounds like it's time to stop buying @AmysKitchen foods.

@sonik0909 @corintxt No. Police shouldn’t have access to this. For example: Am I glad the BTK killer was caught? Obviously. But it was wrong to use his daughter’s routine medical care to take DNA from someone who was not even a suspect (the daughter).
