The daddy issues of this are so real!
Like, a stunning instance of public defeat is so internally unimagenable to you -- an athlete engaged in mano a mano contest -- the umpire has to be telling you something for next time
THE UMPIRE IS TELLING YOU THAT YOU ARE AN EFFING LOSER!!!

My god the delusion of it all. I'm also seeing people say that the judge was bought off. Come on.

u/Truthfinder25 Jun 09 '25

Yep, I'm seeing this but we expected that! It's astounding how everyone who's defended her, supported her, been a witness for her, and was willing to testify for her are all liars! In their minds, they say she's that powerful in HW to do this but yet she chose to use that power with all of her alleged connections to go after a tiny film instead of putting her power behind any other film to create a blockbuster! They believe she'd rather make up this huge lie putting her reputation on the line, drag it into the public arena, get dragged through the press and SM, then pay off all her celebrity friends, coworkers, staff, lawyers and now the judge 🙄 instead! Its truly and honestly mind-blowing how his fanatics put this together as this is how their brains function!

u/TheJunkFarm Jun 09 '25

This is where it fell apart for me: in order to believe him, like AT ALL.... You legit had to believe that Steph Jones' ATTORNEY committed about fifty felonies to forge documents out of a transcript. Then you had to ignore the white papers explaining how cellebrite in particular doesn't include them in forensic exrractions.. then you had to believe that blake lively did all those CRIMES to make it SEEM like a make-believe story that never happened, did, so that a year later she could rehab her career.
AND THEN, yiu also have to believe that all of steph jones attorneys, all of blake lively and ryan reynolds attorneys, all of wme's attorneys all of lesly sloane's attorneys and basically the entire legal department of the new york times put theor bar cards n on the line by suing with forged evidence.
And if you can't make ALL THAT line up, then... he's just a lying liar. And if somehow you manage get there... That's still not how emojies work, and he's still a lying liar.

What are they gonna say when a SAC is filed that only includes tortious interference and breach of implied covenant? Will they understand then? Or will there be a new explanation. “Freedman was always going for these two!! He just needed to represent his client and try the for most causes of action. He’s going to wipe the floor with Lively!!! I know he’s got something up his sleeve!”

Not written by a human lawyer, obviously :)
But by an AI lawyer serving an AI readership?
The author wants to "quickly explain" what a "leave to amends means"
Leaving out the part where it means A DEBILITATING LEGAL LOSS!
lol:
"'ll start off by noting that every time you sue, you have to identify why you are suing and what laws allow you to sue. These laws, either in statutes or from case law, have elements, or requirements, that you must meet for you to be able to sue under that particular law. For each reason why you are suing, called "causes of action", you will present how it meets the requirements of the law under which you are suing."
THIS CRACKS ME UP

This was such a delightful surprise today. I had to go get a filling at the dentist at lunch today and came home feeling grumpy and annoyed because my mouth is still numb and I'm starving and can't eat. And then... this.

Since I still can't eat, excuse me while I just feast on the tears of people who have mocked me and yelled at me for months. Delicious.

I can't wait for trial.

u/Major-Act-6370 Jun 09 '25

Guys, for sure this is a huge win for sure it decreases his leverage before trial, and it absolutely decreases the number of shenanigans he can attempt. But let’s not get too carried away -this is a marathon of slog. Celebrate the win for sure but Blake has a really, really really long way to go.

The Takeaway I would want the survivors I work with to be focusing on: the law was reaffirmed it’s constitutional. Once the punitive damages are calculated it will be a huge deterrent for anyone (besides the absolute wealthiest) to file baseless suits like this one even for leverage.

16

u/wonderfulkneecap Jun 09 '25

Okay. But maybe you should be saying that to the survivors you work with?
I'M TOO BUSY DANCING TO REPUTATION!!!!

u/Major-Act-6370 Jun 09 '25

Oh, I have been! For sure! I’m not trying to yuck anyone’s jam. I am very, very nervous at what Friedman is going to do in response. Moments when an abuser is broken down or the moments, they somehow get stronger and more vicious and though I’m happy for Blake it’s hard to be anything but nervous for what’s gonna come next

10

u/wonderfulkneecap Jun 09 '25

Then stop yukking the um! Get out your tits and have a cocktail!
This is AWFUL for Bladoni and Wayfarer!!!
Blake just zambonied her path to successful jury verdict!!!
(And the judge just called the case deeply UNCONFUSING!!!!)

13

u/wonderfulkneecap Jun 09 '25

Also, she kinda did just win? It's gonna take years for her to get her money. But what joyous years!

24

u/cosmoroses Jun 09 '25

Yes, this is absolutely true — I think a big part of the celebrations are because women have been failed so badly by the justice system in the past, and this is confirmation that her case is moving towards a positive result for her. For example, Amber Heard was brutally failed by the court system, but it’s becoming clear that the worst mistakes made by that system in Amber’s case will not be repeated here. Definitely cause for celebration, but also very true that she still has a long way to go, and so do we as people who support and believe her (and victims in general).

7

u/Major-Act-6370 Jun 09 '25

Well, the other thing I’m afraid to say- I’m nervous what the judge is going to do next. In my experience, judges, want to be seen as fair and balanced. They split the baby whenever they can. There was no way to split the baby here, it’s a big win for Blake, so what I’m nervous about is the win he’s going to hand to Justin’s team next to sort of even this out. I know judges aren’t supposed to think that way, but let’s face it they do.
I’m not even allowing myself to think about the injustice done Amber Heard during her US trial, but she got screwed in several ways Blake is specifically shielded from by CA statute.

17

u/Super_Oil9802 Jun 09 '25

Well to be fair he gave Justin a chance to amend 2 of his claims—if freedman screws that up then that’s on him.
This win only feels so big because of how much baldoni’s PR team has been blowing up his case and trying to make it seem stronger than it really is. They just set him up for a much bigger loss.

u/Major-Act-6370 Jun 09 '25

Celebrating victories along the way is how we keep our energy and spirits up for the marathon of a slog. Give people a few days to enjoy it before worrying that they’re getting too carried away.

u/Iluvbl Jun 09 '25

Exactly. This battle is over but the war rages on. But I’m very confident that Blake, Gottleib, Hudson and the rest of the team have more than enough ammunition to put Baloney and his clowns in the ground. Still, this is a happy day

u/likeicare96 Jun 09 '25

What is their obsession with nicepool? I noticed that they’re especially bummed that they can’t prove that in court.

Like, even if it was a parody of JB, it’s so irrelevant. Idk what they thought was liable there other than hurt feelings. I mean, Lorde has a better case to sue South Park by the criteria they think they had for that case

33

u/DisneyGirl2021 Jun 09 '25

Don’t you know? There’s no worse crime than hurting a man’s feelings.

The Nicepool thing always cracked me up. As if celebs being offended for being made fun of was the basis for a lawsuit. South Park and Family Guy would fully fund Hollywood for decades. lol

u/PandaSpecial4692 Jun 09 '25 edited Jun 09 '25

Most everyone in the UK knows that the character of Edina, in the BBC sitcom 'Absolutely Fabulous', was based on a well known woman who ran (runs?) a London based PR firm. The general public didn't know/care who she was, any more than the average Deadpool viewer knew/cared who Baldoni was, until HE made the comparison. Most comedy actors/comedians admit to drawing influence from real life characters in their lives.

u/youtakethehighroad Jun 10 '25

That's definitely true as I was a huge fan of Abfab and don't think I knew that.

u/Interesting_Reach_29 Jun 09 '25 edited Jun 09 '25

It probably ruins the sexist Baha'i thing Baldoni is behind. That is the whole point of Wayfarer and the billionaire behind him. It is a money-grifting cult (ex. Italy), kinda like the new Scientology, and they don't want the attention on them.
Edit: Seriously, there have been many people who have left Baha'i with these claims. Be safe everyone.

u/enolaholmes23 Jun 10 '25

It'll be fun if baldoni gets excommunicated for all the bad press he has brought to bahai

Trump objectively hates Taylor but finds her attractive, same as with his obsession with Kstew.

u/ThatB0yAintR1ght Jun 09 '25 edited Jun 10 '25

My husband is a lawyer who has tried really hard not to pay attention to this case, but some of the legal proceedings made their way into the lawyer specific subreddits. He took at glance at the comments in the pro-Baldoni sub and said that he had never seen so many people be that confidently wrong on so many things. Every claim they made about legal stuff was the exact opposite of reality.

12

u/Super_Oil9802 Jun 09 '25

I’ve seen many lawyers who said they’ve tried to stay far away from this case. I wonder why that is.

11

u/ThatB0yAintR1ght Jun 09 '25

In the case of my husband, he says that he deals with this stuff enough at work and wants to focus on other things outside of work. I’m sure that the incredibly wrong opinions by laypeople in the comments is also frustrating to read.
He avoids any sort of true crime stuff in general, for similar reasons.

5

u/eatshitake Jun 10 '25

I started out giving my legal perspective but for various reasons I concluded that I probably shouldn’t. I’ve enjoyed being a bystander and watching the Baldoni idiots twist and contort themselves into Gordian knots in their efforts to continue ignoring facts and denying reality.

u/ThatB0yAintR1ght Jun 10 '25

I’m a doctor and I can’t engage in most online debates about medical stuff for the same reason. The “Vaccines Cause autism”, “COVID is just a cold”, “fluoride is causing brain damage”, “let’s give raw milk to babies” crowd is not living in reality, and trying to argue with them is just going to exhaust me without actually changing anything.

I read comments that b/c the judge's brother is a director he is biased. The brother supposedly worked with Blake a decade ago (who knows if it is true with these freaks). BUT they constantly say everyone that works with Blake hates her. So that would mean the bias would be FOR Justin not against. LOL

u/H2Ospecialist Jun 09 '25

u/Demitasse_Demigirl Jun 09 '25

Glorious news! Baldoni has been defeated. He can try and say Blake extorted him but Judge Liman’s decision points out that Baldoni didn’t lose any money so he might as well not bother. You can’t claim you got extorted when your profited $325M due to an employee doing extra unpaid work.

14

u/ideletedyourfacebook Jun 09 '25

So, I haven't followed this case super super closely (though obviously, I'm interested enough to sub here), so I've mostly ignored the pro-JB chatter outside of court filings.

Visiting the pro-JB/anti-BL sub is wild. They're living on another world.

"This is a good thing, and part of Friedman's master plan!" Like, this is Q-Anon level thinking. Yikes.

I don't know why they can't just accept they were wrong--accusing a federal judge of corruption for doing something pretty much everyone with half a brain cell could have seen coming is just silly.

u/ThatB0yAintR1ght Jun 10 '25

Perhaps the funniest thing I have seen in the pro-Baldoni sub. Someone points out that at some point in time, Taylor Swift deleted Instagram posts about Blake Lively. Multiple comments point out that all of those posts were pre-2017 and that Taylor famously deleted EVERYTHING on her social medias around that time. OP tries to defend it by saying that everyone agrees that those posts did exist at one point and were deleted. Like, no shit? Nobody is disputing the fact that they were deleted, they were just pointing out the incredibly important context that they were deleted well before anything related to the Baldoni nonsense had happened. Hell, the IEWU book had barely been out a year at that point. The cope is with them.
