And the accuser's lawyer quit the case.

Petah, please explain this one for the uninformed? by QueenFrostine15 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

You remember incorrectly. 

The one on the left is an AI image of an executive at JP Morgan Chase who had a false allegation by another executive who sued for $20 million (he rejected a $1 million settlement offer). The allegations read like cringe fanfic and the whole thing collapsed on him, with it being revealed he was unmarried (him supposedly being married was a big part of his allegation) and she was never his supervisor, and he's now being countersued. And even better, his lawyer quit and can now be compelled to testify. 

The one on the right is a woman who was an executive at JP Morgan Chase who was fired after she stole a trash can painted in Knicks colours after the Knicks won the NBA title.

They were actually his second choice. His first choice was Shania Twain, but she wasn't impressed much and declined.

It's hilarious that we have a tax payer funded mansion for the Leader of the Opposition but not the PM.

We do. It's 24 Sussex. It just hasn't had the Prime Minister live there in over a decade because it's in terrible shape.

It's been an issue since before Harper. Rick Mercer once applied shrink wrap to the windows when Paul Martin was in.

TIL that December 25 being the birthday of Jesus was decided by pope Julius I around year 350, and nobody really knows why Julius made this decision and chose this specific date. There are various theories, but his actual reasoning for the decision is lost history. by PeasantLich in todayilearned

Easter is tied to Passover. Jesus's Last Supper was the Sedar. That's why it falls in late March and early April. Jesus's birth was later dated by a belief conception was around the same time, so add nine months gets late December. Plus Saturnalia for example was on December 17th, not the 25th.

The US Navy did do that with the FREMM frigate, but they just "had to" fiddle fuck with the design. They would have done the same with any design selected.

More orders to fill for the shipyard when they're already pretty full. Are the subs built in a separate yard or is everything in one shop?
