Ethan Klein is in his 40s, and her boss. She is a 27 year old fan of the show and of him personally whom he hired to work for him. The power dynamic was off from the beginning. Beyond that HE is the one who broke marital vows. She is a grown-ass woman and not blameless but he is worse.
Shocking twist, the internet has turned the story of a cheating man into the story of an evil woman.
She is both to blame for her actions but also a victim of Klein wielding a power imbalance. Most people don't fit into a perfect dichotomy of victim/victimizer. Hurt people hurt people. Shifting the whole blame to Tamara is how we see Ethan Klein come back to the internet like nothing ever happened.

I'll go so far as to say that she's a victim, not as much as his wife of course, but she was taken advantage of by her boss, and older, wealthier man whom she had looked up to and admired long before she was hired by him to work on the show. So fuck him first and foremost I guess is what I'm saying.
Dear Pat. Have you tried NOT being a giant baby? If you're going to be on EVERY show on ESPN as your bosses seem to want, you're going to need to grow some thicker skin.
The wildest part about Pat McAfee's weird comment about the University of Utah is the video that provoked it... *this* is the video that broke him:

Astounding how much of a little spineless prick he is.
Mehdi: “The Democratic party should not speak out against the president sending migrants... to be tortured in a foreign gulag?” Yglesias: “Yeah... You got to win first.” Watch @mehdirhasan.bsky.social press centrist Matthew Yglesias on immigration. Full interview here: zeteo.com/p/matt-ygles...
Centrism: Where rocking the boat is worse than any injustice.
A helpfully clear exchange here Hasan: "So your argument is that [Minnesota ICE protesters] should stay at home because immigration is a salient issue for Donald Trump. Opposing ICE is only going to help Trump. Wait until we win the election in 2028." Yglesias: "Yes that is what I would have said"
At the same time, imagine being so shitty that Jesse fucking Singal is like "woah woah. I'm not down with that!"
every now & then someone on the anti-trans side will get cold feet about how openly ugly it's all getting—they want to keep the image of a nice, sensible centrist but it's never enough for them to get off the train
Fun fact about the federal government falling apart: The USCourts.gov Bankruptcy Noticing Center has been offline for at least a week due to a "cybersecurity incident." The website acknowledged the issue on 10/15. But it's probably been 2 weeks. The last notice my office received was on 10/8.
This comes at the same time as the courts report that bankruptcy filings are up 11.4%. www.uscourts.gov/data-news/ju...

We could if we were dork-ass losers who think killing slavers is worse than enslaving people. I am not a dork-ass loser who thinks killing slavers is worse than enslaving people.
And we can certainly condemn his violence. But let’s step back and remember just how horrible slavery was. On December 20, 1858, Brown, who had briefly returned to Kansas, led a party into Missouri to free slaves.

It is a fundamental part of the conservative brain to have intense hatred for anything they don't understand.
Trump: "I just left Alaska where we have a real bad thing. They have the ranked choice voting, where you go into I guess some sort of test tube or something and they pick whoever they hell they want."
