I’ll go one further: zero private money for campaigns (whether from donors, from the candidates themselves, from PACs, from corporations, from unions, etc...).

They need to be looking towards young, progressive candidates to make people WANT to vote. Which means the Democratic candidate will probably be Joe Biden or some such shit.

The Democrats are going to fuck up 2018 and 2020.

It’s what happens when you try to be relatable while also refusing to pull the stick out of your ass.

Every time I think about the Democratic party these days I think about this gif.

Seriously, let them. Let them do their fucking investigation, gather what they can, convene a grand jury, indict her, put her on trial—the works. If the prosecution can avoid having the case kicked during the criminal justice equivalent of the pleadings stage of the proceedings, and avoid getting the case kicked on…

Au contraire:

Helen Hunt will be doing a big favor to Reiser. She doesn’t need it. He on the other hand isn’t “open to the idea.” He’s praying for it.

The trump one took me weeks to actually put on, it was so upsetting. But gareth doing ivanka was gold. “Mers mooples” is forever my favorite.

YEP. Also, The Dollop = AWESOME.

Except if you read the non-Jezebel takes on the story, she was probably railroaded by the police into making a false confession (impacted by language issues). It is unlikely that she took any action that directly led to her fiance’s death.

Jezebel got slammed for their poor reporting the last time they did an article…

I’m pretty sure something like that is what happened. She ended up incriminating herself in trying to absolve herself. Something like that. The last time this was posted on Jez there was a lot of talk because of how poorly it was covered (kind of like this one).

The main thing was he didn’t wear a life-preserver and didn’t wear a wet-suit. Maybe she nudged his kayak away from him, but it wasn’t the drain plug that did him in. Not saying he deserved to die, but he was not wearing any flotation, wasn’t dressed for the environment, and didn’t carry a Personal Locator Beacon…

This case has always been confusing and language issues seem to have played a role in her statements.

Ok, once again you can’t deflate a kayak by removing the drain plug. It’s a drain plug. You drain the kayak of water. Not air.

I was thinking she is just gonna have extra laundry to do. Unless they are adding a touch of Mr. Mom (shoutout to Michael Keaton!) to this story.

I don’t understand how a gender swapped Overboard is supposed to work. Given that even in 2017 that most men don’t do their equal share of the housework and childrearing, what on earth is to be gained by convincing an amnesiac rich guy that he’s poor AND your husband? Taking on a fake husband seems like it would be…

It’s not like he raped her. He just held her under false pretenses, made her his house slave, and then fell in love with her. Hijinks ensued for fuck’s sake!

I’ll definitely have to check my library! Her estate should re-release it on Kindle, I’d bet it would be a pretty popular title right about now.
