so I’m watching SHE IS CONANN (2024), a gender swapped Conan story that would probably appeal to a lot of you for … reasons, and this shit is wild.

bullshit country. 36 years of this man's life taken from him and he can't even recover in a lawsuit.
Man spent 36 years in prison for a rape and attempted murder that he didn’t commit, topping the list of exonerees with the longest incarcerations. Baton Rouge, La. police investigating the crime showed the victim photo lineups. On the fourth occasion, she homed in on one man whom she said looked “most” like the assailant, though she “could not positively say.” She later picked him out on the fifth set of photo lineups and then a physical lineup. Fingerprints at the scene didn’t match his—and when the state finally re-ran them in 2019, they implicated someone else. Fifth Circuit (unpublished): The photo lineups were constitutional because the victim “exhibited a level of certainty.” (Ed. note: You may enjoy his take on Blackbird.)

this comes up over and over (most notably in Town of Castle Rock), the police don't owe you shit. they don't owe you protection and they sure as hell aren't going to stop a man planning to kill his family.
Man beats his wife, the mother of his three children, after she files for divorce. He’s arrested and then released the next day. Over the next several months, McAllen, Tex. police ignore 10 reports that he’s harassing her and violating court orders. He murders her. Can her estate sue the city for failing to extend the equal protection of the law? Fifth Circuit (unpublished): No, the complaint fails to allege facts showing the police treat domestic violence victims less favorably than victims of other crimes.

“I felt like, being in conservative politics, there would be more, like, masculine men in the conservative movement,” Housley says, “and I find that a lot of them aren’t as masculine as I would have hoped.”

presented without comment for the legal writing scholars amongst you
Complaint1. This is a case about a man who practices a deeply hypocritical form of‘misogyny. But, in an ironic twist, that man is not the Plaintiff, Paul J. Ingrassia. No,that man is Politico reporter Daniel Lippman. Indeed, the irony of this case, surelylost on Defendants, is this: Lippman falsely portrayed Mr. Ingrassia as a perpetratorof workplace sexual harassment against a female colleague at the Department ofHomeland Security, for all the world to see, even after the woman—who Lippmanfeverishly cast as the “victim —unequivocally and repeatedly told Lippman that Mr.Ingrassia did not engage in any wrongdoing, that she never felt uncomfortable aroundhim, that she and Mr. Ingrassia were longtime friends, and that she did not file anycomplaint about Mr. Ingrassia. Lippman, obsessed with destroying Mr. Ingrassia’s
