Kathleen Folbigg's children most likely suffered from various genetic conditions that led to their deaths. Folbigg was wrongfully imprisoned in 2003 and ordered to serve a minimum of 25 years for the suffocation murders of three of her children and manslaughter for the fourth.

Tumblr and Twitter: women who don’t conform to traditional feminity have masculine privilege.

Reality: in Italy in 2019, two men were acquitted of rape charges after the complainant was deemed by judges to be “too masculine” and therefore “ugly” to have been raped by them. The judges (who were all women) believed the men when they stated that they were not attracted to the victim. The judges said that this meant the men would not have raped her.

The only people who think that non-conforming women, or people in general, have privilege are the people who are actually privileged enough to never have to step outside of their bubble and acknowledge (or care) about the ways other people suffer. Non-conforming women don't gain anything from their non-conformity but increased vitriol and mockery, on top of experiencing the same misogyny all women face. I can't even begin to explain how idiotic it is to claim that people who exist outside of society's strict norms receive privilege for their actions. It's based on nothing and the only people making that claim simply refuse to empathize with non-conforming people. They fetishize suffering and enjoy their perceived victimhood, while ignoring how it effects others. It's disgusting and I hate how popular this idea actually is when it's nothing but rebranded misogyny.

Crime & Christie: Arsenic the Element That Brings Everyone Together

Now, you’d think arsenic poisoning wouldn’t really square with Chicago’s Murderess Acquittal Formula. Not only because the administration of poison is (predominantly) a covert and (on the whole) premeditated act but on account of the sheer absurdity of translating the foundation of this Formula from “they both reached for the gun” — to — “they both reached for the box of Rough on Rats.”  And…

The way the show explores of ambiguous Do-ha feels about being vindicated. Yes, he's free from suspicion, but a girl that he once loved still died so it makes sense that he wouldn't totally feel like celebrating. It's complicated

And I love Sol-hee telling him that this doesn't need to define his life anymore. He's finally going to be able to get over it.

Recently I’ve been wondering what happened to David. He’s the guy who actually held Ponyboy’s head down in that water (albeit on Bob’s orders) and would’ve had that death on his hands had it happened, which it almost did. And yet he literally never appears again ever in the story. Not even at the courthouse

thinking about what our timeline may have looked like if robert kardashian had defended the menendez brothers instead of OJ lol

The executions detailed by Foxe were heart-breaking. One of the worst was the execution of Perotine Massey in July 1556, executed alongside her mother and sister in St Peter Port in Guernsey. She had reported a neighbour for stealing a cup; in the consequent investigation, the matter of her church attendance had come to light, and she was convicted of heresy. Amidst the flames, she gave birth to a baby boy, who was rescued by a bystander; but the bailiff in attendance thrust him back into the fire to perish with the mother. We know this was not Foxe's invention, for the bailiff was found guilty of murder during Elizabeth's reign. This is by far the most arresting of many dreadful stories, but Foxe was very good at tales that stay in the memory. At Laxfield in Suffolk, in 1557, the shoemaker John Noyes was sentenced to be burned; but in silent solidarity, his neighbours put out their hearth fires, so that there would be no way of lighting his pyre (although the executioners found a way in the end).
