When Diana and Charles went to Australia on their first trip as a married couple,Charles’ nose got out of joint over the press fawning all over his wife instead of himself. I remember he was put out for months over Diana’s allure in the press. I think some of the same courtiers who slammed Kate for being too common

I was so afraid of my dolls,believing my big brother who said my dolls knew I hated dolls and were going to come into my bedroom and get me one night, that I nailed them to the floor with giant 3 inch nails through the heads into our hardwood floor when I was about 5 or 6 years old. My mother ws less than thrilled

Republicans don’t need voters, they’ve controlled the polls in swing and red state. “It isn’t who votes that counts, it’s who counts the votes.” Purge the rolls, institute voter  ID and make regulations hard for poor people to meet, move the polls on Election Day, send the police to sweep poor and minority

I was so sad when she withdrew from the race. I love this woman! Her five minutes grilling Jeff Sessions (not to mention that twisty slimy toad, Barr) were the best televoision evah! and a clear illustration of why a diverse Senate is so important. I was backing KH and EW for the CIC role but would be thrilled to see

This white girl is right there with you. I am so grateful our governor is a Democratic woman. Oregon was one of the first states to issue stay at home orders. Our infection rates, as seen by hospitalizations, has stabilized.

He was one of the primary forces that pushed the Clinton impeachments. He and his female friend, whose name is lost- Linda something- set up poor Monica to be shamed . It is long story, I suggest you google about the whole thing.

I cannot even go near what this little girl’s parents must be going through. I spent an incredibly long 10 minutes searching for my then 2 year old girl at a large park. I could not find her anywhere and for 10 minutes I knew a grief and a terror that I have no words to describe. My heart is with her parents.

Either that or she’s discovered anti gravity. It don’t work for her like it does for everyone else.

The U. N. disagrees. The WHO has declared it a probable carcinogen. It is a nasty herbicide.

Olde white lady here. I was maybe 7 or 8 when I saw SotS and Dumbo. I immediately recognized the racism in both, although I did not have the words to explain why the movie made me so uncomfortable. I reacted with distress as a kid when I saw a person, animal, or group being ridiculed, shamed or picked on. I hated

A pune. How droll.

Only 58%of eligible voters went to the polls. That leaves 42% who were either purged from the rolls or were too disgusted with the mudslinging to bother to vote. The site 538 stated Comey’s press conference excoriating Hillary cost her 2% of the vote. I know the drip drip drip of Republican slander convinced a sizable

I have a theory that racism in America is a national mental illness that sprung full blown from 400 years of terrorism against the descendants of African abductees. Our nation kidnapped the equivalent of a whole nation in terms of millions of citizens. It transported them across an ocean and subjected them to 350

When this current debacle is over I am going to nominate you, Rooo, for a freaking medal! Thank you for keeping your eye on the game and keeping the rest of us informed. How do I share this across Kinja? I know how on my own posts but not those written by others.

How could any self respecting institution of “higher learning” even allow that crap to be posted? How could a medical school not see that as profoundly disturbing coming from one of its students? I am an olde white lady who knows she’s as afflicted with national mental illness 9f racism as the next white person. The

The eagle tried to warn us....

cuz people be stoopid, lazy, and entitled.

Rosemary’s Baby, 2001 . A space Odyssey...

I never watch the Oscars live because it’s terrible and never has a good host. I will just check out pictures and clips. I do want to see the backlash if/when Three Billboards of Racist Flyover State is chosen as the movie of the year. Gary Oldman winning best actor will continue the tradition of a man who is abusive
