Oh god Tierra... XD

You literally CANNOT give juicy detail like “I went to high school with her” and not give us some fantastic backstory. Did the nanny also cut her cucumbers in the school cafeteria? I MUST KNOW MORE.

Not a business owner. She’s in sales for her father’s epoxy company...they seal garage floors or some such. The whole “multi-million dollar business owner” narrative is completely false.

I think he’s surrounding himself with family members like any paranoid mobster would.

And yet - his supporters don’t care! They only care about corruption that *other people* commit.

Nice work, Pam. You played the long game and it looks like payoff time.

They aren’t even trying to hide the corruption anymore. Nepotism on parade.

Under most circumstances, dying at 84 would not be tragically extraordinary. Dying the day after your daughter is, which is why this is hitting much harder than it would if the situation was different.

It reminds me of Teddy Roosevelt losing his wife and mother on the same day. He was pretty much a broken man after that for a couple years, and even after he recovered, couldn’t talk much about that loss.

She fucking better. That one might really break me.

heartbreak.

They sellin it too hard. But I do see a real passion for self-promotion.

They’re filming a music video. We’re giving this corny bastard too much credit.

So this!!! I think it starts at an early age, too. I’m witnessing my nephew being raised into a monster because everything he does wrong is chalked up to ‘he’s so sensitive’ and he gets praised and rewarded for simply not acting like a total asshole. He can’t take no for an answer, mansplains his worldview incessantly…

Yeah special people who either don’t really need a job or special people who are wholesome and educated enough to care for children but also willing to live in their cars. I just can’t deal. Teachers are slightly better off, but again, special people. It’s almost as if our social structure is set up to keep women at…

Men with dependents, married or not, do get treated better than their female colleagues. I’m a woman without kids by choice and get screwed over at work in favor of my divorced male single father colleague. He’s barely capable of doing his job in a manner that allows him to keep it, but he gets the perks that should…

Yep it’s Marxist shit 101. If women will do it for free, wages will remain low.

I think the reverse is also true: men won’t take low wage jobs. There is no reason men cannot be nurses aids, daycare teachers, and retail clerks. They refuse to do so because such wages are beneath them.

Good for her and fuck the unexamined sense of entitlement that men get from this bullshit. Also fuck the double standard at home that leaves women doing every fucking thing for everyone.

I recall that when my sister had a baby, her husband made a remark that he was suddenly treated better by his employers (all male, white finance firm)—more responsibilities and status in the office—and chalked it up to because he was a new father. He said this to me with no introspection and didn’t question what…
