I don’t know if Barron is autistic (as people upthread are speculating) and I’m not going to try and guess if he is, but I will *guarantee* someone close to Trump (a child, a grandchild, the child of a close friend/flunky) is autistic because this seems to be an issue that he keeps coming back to and the only things…

The fact he used the word spastic made that much pretty clear from the get go.

But you’re saying white men should be judged by people that aren’t other white men! How can it possibly be fair for sub-hum... uh I mean second class .... no still wrong, uh Indians to judge good upstanding white people?!

I thought the name sounded like something out of Greek Mythology. And I approve of that meaning! That’s how to name your kids, people, none of this kreativ spelling/random punctuation shit people pull to make the names unique/ridiculous while still pronouncing it as standard so your kid will still end up as Jennifer R…

Sure why not? We can create/exacerbate their mental illness first through having them serve in a war zone, fail to provide any of the support they clearly needed after they return from that war zone, then continue to refuse to get them any real help even when they specifically ask for it, and despite their description…

The fact that he made a speech referring to people working in a war zone sound like he was saying isn’t it so wonderful that I’m loved by all these people in dire situations, applaud me for helping the little people is generally considered tacky to say the least. I’m sure that wasn’t the message he was trying to…

If they don’t they’ll just make one up. German is the best language for being able to slap existing words together like lego bricks to make something new and wonderful.

Didn’t see it so I’m assuming he mangled it from what you say which is embarrassing because you don’t have to know an entire language to learn how to pronounce three words (especially three words you know you’re planning to use in front of millions of viewers) but I don’t get why everyone is complaining about him not…

The fact that people have died trying this shows that clearly a lot of people don’t understand that.

Compare her reaction, which was to *apologise* and realise that understandably if you’re going to be wandering around late at night somewhere that is patrolled by guards it’s helpful to let them know you’re there, with Prince Andrew, who when challenged by one of the guards ended up getting a written apology from the…

Children are allowed to have no taste and no concept of what things are worth though, it’s cute.

I considered a stupidly expensive ‘cave’ type bed for my dog. The thing that stopped me was not that this is a ridiculous amount of money to spend on anything pet related other than vet bills (although it totally was) but rather my floof has two very comfy beds and 50% of the time he sleeps on the floor next to them…

I cannot believe he is whining about her wanting more for legal costs. Dude if you would have just paid her the damn money when you were supposed to her lawyers wouldn’t have racked up more charges chasing your dead beat ass for the cash. The longer you fight this the more her legal fees will go up and why the fuck…

If I was the employer of the Rockettes I’d be getting legal advice. I mean you have a duty of care to your employees. If you allow them to be hired to perform in scanty clothing for a man who openly admits to groping and perving on women I would have thought you were at risk of being sued if something happens to your…

Oh my God, isn’t he? I read it in the German while I was at university - well parts of it, there was no way I was making it through the whole thing - and I actually had to bribe myself with coffee and sweets to get through the bits I needed. OK if you make to the next section without stopping or realising you’ve not…

Or, and this is a radical thought that clearly hasn’t occurred to her, she could turn up for the damn rehearsals and not send a stand in and then maybe she might be better prepared to deal with any issues or be able to spot any issues before they happen.

Well considering he wants to attack both the Kurds and ISIS while instigating much stricter police state stuff in his own country anything like this is always going to play into his hands. Oh people are criticising me? Terrorists. It was the PKK? All Kurds are terrorists crack down on them. It was Daesh? That proves…

They seem to want to put fear into the everyday person who is just doing regular stuff

Terrorist seems to mean Islamic extremism to a lot of people and I think that’s what all these reports are thinking when they express doubt it was terrorism.

It’s also important to remember that with liners like this lifeboats weren’t thee for people to be in while the ship sank. Ships like this were expected to sink slowly if they ever sank (which they didn’t think was likely). Lifeboats were there to ferry the passengers and crew to the rescuing ships - there were always…
