I can't say I blame her for not wanting to go near bombs. Hopefully she's been reassigned to cheesing locating detail at home.

Obviously this is the least of anyone's worries at the moment, but these fires are devastating both vineyards and cannabis farms. :ohdear:

The vineyards will at least, one hopes, have access to USDA disaster funding, but the weed folks are fuuuuuucked.

Dirty John.

A long read, but worth it. It's well-written and the story is absolutely engrossing, revealing the kind of damage a single, pathological man can do to an entire family.

I've read about a lot of sociopaths, but John isn't a serial killer - though he definitely fits the profile. The fact his crimes were slightly less outlandish actually made the story more unsettling, in some ways, as they seemed less like something from a horror movie and more like something I can imagine happening in my own or my friends' lives.

And boy, does the story escalate.

One thing that struck me was the description of how, when John got angry and let his facade slip, people looked into his eyes and saw an "utter void" looking back - it's identical to the way contemporaries have described Henry Lee Lucas, or Bundy, or any number of other psychopaths. They're charming, until suddenly something switches and they're utterly not.

Jim Carrey is now claiming that his late girlfriend contracted the STDs that supposedly made her suicidal before meeting him — and not after, like her family alleges.

It's incredible how insanely biased this news article is against Carrey's young girlfriend. Yes, she played the long con by forging documents and then actually, literally committing suicide, so her family could get money. Seems like a rational thing that any judge would see.

the judge will rule in carrey's favor regardless

I hadn't heard of the original lawsuit. Is giving someone STDs illegal? Is there precedent for this?
I didn't realize "she was depressed because you gave her an STD" counted as manslaughter, is that normal? Or is this more of a "you gave her the drugs so it's negligent" type deal?

Something doesn't need to be illegal to be a tort. And, yes, there is plenty of precedent, although primarily for incurable STDs.

The argument might be that she was depressed because of the STD, and that supplying her with the drugs knowing her mental state was incredibly negligent.
