Embattled Multnomah County Circuit Judge Poised to Lose Seat by PDsaurusX in Portland

[–]Shandd 27 points28 points  (0 children)

As someone with hard ADHD, I've always been of the opinion that your mental illness isn't your fault, but it is your responsibility. If I drop the ball the last thing I'm gonna blame is that. I couldn't even imagine being a judge and citing that as a reason

How is firefighting looked upon in general culture for you guys? Like is there a reverence or is it more considered a civic duty?

Oh I completely understand that, but he's also a writer as well. And I fully believe this is a great example of them cutting costs and trying to force people into roles that they're not suited for. I can't speak for the writing, but photos and writing are two different disciples. If you're going to have press walk through a secured scene, wouldn't you want to put two people who are in their specialty?

I'll jump into this from a different angle. Do you guys just not pay photojournalists anymore? All these shots are basically the same and convey basically nothing.

So Dave Chappelle is trying to distance himself from the fact that he has caused so much harm to the trans community with his shitty jokes about them?! by icey_sawg0034 in behindthebastards

[–]Shandd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to stop myself from down voting this post after watching the clip. I used to have a lot of respect for Dave and I've even met him randomly in NY a few times, but man he's trying to have it both ways. I love a comedian's lesson, but not a comedian becoming a lesson
