He tells them what they want to hear. That’s basically all he has to do. That sweet filthy shot of false assurance will make them do anything.

a week ago a girl I’ve known from high school shared Kavanaugh’s testimony and was like “wow! I would vote for him!”

This sucks.  I don’t want anyone to support Manchin but I don’t want to lose the seat either.  We are facing the worst voting map of all time on the Senate side and we cannot give up an inch.

Or people could have just swallowed their pride and voted for the person who wasn’t a lying, contract breaking, pussy grabbing con man. Seems pretty obvious to me. Glaringly so now.

I’m not big on the taste of Fruit Loops, but if I could bottle the smell and make a room deodorizer out of it, you bet your ass I’d do it in a heartbeat.

Peanut Butter Crunch is the best of all cereals.  I prefer to just eat it dry as a snack though. 

I posted on the article the Takeout had about this....I loved Trix as a kid, but the more I think about it, this feels like a bad gamble on the nostalgia cash-in. There are plenty of things I ate as a kid that were nutritional trash fires, but at least some of those had some redeeming qualities to my foodie-bullshit…

Although the alleged incident took place decades ago and the three individuals involved were minors, the woman said that the memory had been a source of ongoing distress for her
