One of the minor tragedies of this entire debacle is that Mark Judge is a published author of sorts, when the are so many amazing writers in this world toiling unknown.

my husband and I are trying to have a kid, and I am genuinely concerned that I won’t be able to get there tonight because my ovaries have reached down and zipped my labia shut.

w/ one scoop.

If I were Putin, I would 10/10 hold our next meeting in an aquarium. 

I thought at some point she specifically said it was that issue.  Or maybe that was just ribald conjecture - honestly this is all so upsetting and grody that it’s hard to keep facts straight (but also, it’s a trainwreck and I can’t stop rubbernecking).

Eh, you’re forgetting about the “nurture” part of the equation - sure there’s genetic variance among siblings, but they were all raised in the fetid emotional cesspool of the Trump home.

Also, dude who does not respect the bodily autonomy of one woman (that we know about) will be put in a position to undermine the legal access of all American women to their own bodily autonomy. But no, nothing to see here, let’s just barrel through this confirmation process as fast as possible.

Yup, exactly.  I knew it would come to this - there was no way we were going to make it through this presidency without a reasonably detailed knowledge of what his dick looks like.  And, like a Dan Savage from the underworld, I am sure that It Gets Worse - I am fully confident that we’ll see dick pics by the end of…

Yeah, I have a really hard time not drawing a direct line between the kind of person who would violently force themselves on a classmate at a party and the kind of person who would have no problem voting to restrict access to reproductive healthcare.

Also, I feel like we need to clarify “resistance” - they aren’t undermining him, in a lot of ways, they are making him more effective, and certainly making him a more effective agent of the current Republican party.  If they were an actual goddam Resistance, Trump would no longer be president.

YES! Like, great, I’m pleased that you feel like you’re so honorable, mr. “anonymous senior official,” but I didn’t fucking vote for you (I mean, I didn’t vote for fucking trump, either, but you get my drift - NO ONE voted for you) and I’m sorry that I’m not super thrilled about a cadre of uber-conservative officials…

Yeah. There are so many junctures at which she could have torpedoed his run with a well-timed truthful public statement, instead of providing cover for his awfulness. Though we know goddam well she didn’t write those statements - but presumably she ok’d them to be released with her name attached. I will admit I still…

Philip Seymour Hoffman left us too soon.

Oh man, Slow Burn has been my JAM - it’s so good and so painful. This last episode I was listening to them describe how Monica experienced their interactions and it made me just want to hug her, take her out for a bottle of wine, and be like “oh honey no - men are scum, we’re going to go out this weekend and just,…

:(  She was one that I always genuinely hoped would turn out ok.

Yup. I am tangentially in the loop on a Title IX complaint, and the bulk of the offenses (which were EGREGIOUS) occurred either at local bars, faculty homes, or academic conferences.  And my guess would be that that is the norm.

THANK YOU.  Like, he got sent to a disciplinarian military cosplay high school because he sucked so hard, at such an early age.  That uniform is not a badge of honor, folks.  

shout out for reminding me that Craig Mazin exists.  His rage and hatred for Cruz are life-giving.

YES. and it has to specify “front of train” or “back of train” when transferring lines for added authenticity. 

STOP IT I just said the love child of Westley and Skipper but “Great Value Cary Elwes” is so much better.
