I feel bad for the jurors in the Jussie Smollet trial. Can you imagine having to miss a week of work for that shit?
Spoken like a man who’s never been attacked by racists carrying bleach at 3am while buying sandwiches. This insanely terrible lie goes down in the high-profile trial hall of fame. Along with such hits as: “I was golfing at night.” - OJ Simpson “I went fishing alone on Christmas Eve.” - Scott Peterson “I left my gun at the restaurant.” - Robert Blake
I do appreciate some BLM guy chiming in that he’s only trial because of racism, and not because he’s an attention-whoring narcissist.
Setting aside how fucked up it was for him to do it in the first place, the utter ineptitude in the execution of the hoax is amazing. I don't know if there is anything he could have done to make it less believable short of writing "hate crime hoax" on the memo line of the check he gave the Nigerian brothers he hired to play the MAGA hatters. I hope he gets the maximum sentence just for the sheer audacity of forcing this to trial instead of taking a plea deal.
They’re the heroes of this story. Good for them for refusing to get thrown under the bus by that sneering little shit.

I led the writing team, so yes. I feel like a Deanne...sort of like a Karen but too lazy to be a cunt, and too stupid to be useful.
If you've ever used WalMart.com, check your bank account. I looked at my bank account this morning and it was drained by an order to walmart.com. I logged into that account (Which I haven't used in over a year) and there was a large order placed on it being shipped to Los Angeles. Since I don't usually carry cash, I now have zero money until mid next week when I get a new card, and I have property taxes due tomorrow that I need my card to pay. Merry Fucking Christmas.
This has happened to me enough times that I only use a credit card online. 2% back, pay it off every week or so, and I have a spare card or two in case this sort of thing happens.
My debit card gets used at the ATM and nowhere else. I've known too many people who have gotten their cards skimmed, accounts drained, and had to get by with whatever they had in their pockets for days or weeks until they got their money back. If your debit card gets stolen, your money is gone and you have to work to get it back. If your credit card gets stolen, you have a big charge that you refuse to pay and it's the bank's problem. Plus, there are some pretty sweet credit card rewards programs out there.
I have one credit card with a small limit that I use for all online purchases and automatic payments.
Same, I never use my debit card whatsoever except to either go to an ATM or at a dispensary (which don't take CCs). Using a credit card is always better. Banks drag their feet when you have an issue with your debit card because it's "your" money. Credit cards are "their" money, so they take that shit pretty seriously.
