Yes, I am a neurologist who specializes in stroke care. You got me. 

But strokes absolutely can change your personality—- granted, we more often see that with older folks who suffer with strokes and dementia, but the fact that his marriage seems to be falling apart would indicate a pretty serious personality shift, too. Sometimes it is just what was inside all along coming out (like…

It’s entirely possible that he was always an opportunist scumbag who said what he needed to get elected even though it wasn’t even passingly authentic. . . but I can’t help but wonder if what we are seeing now is the result of a cognitive shift post-stroke. Like, I guess it’s possible that he was some evil mastermind…

I had the same thought. It’s weird because saying she rubbed her vulva on Caroline is no less shocking, so I don’t know why they wouldn’t use correct words. 

The other day, I read someone pointing out that at least Lauren Sanchez is an age appropriate partner for Bezos, which is rare as hell among those super rich guys generally. She’s 54 and he’s 60, which . . . kind of surprising? 

Shanna has always been pretty messy, even going way back to when she and Travis had their own reality show (predating the Kardashians, I think). While I’m sympathetic to her claims of parental alienation with Travis, it’s hard to believe when her other child— who she shares with Oscar De La Hoya (ie: not even Travis’…

That’s very cool that you feel that way and you are certainly entitled to think that about her clothing, but the point still remains that I don’t recall a multi-slide take down of Mitt Romney’s weird ties or George Santos’ ugly ass sweater vests.

I don’t know, man. I just can’t work up mocking a woman for what she’s wearing, even if she’s a dirt bag like this. Other than DeSantis’ shoes*, I can’t think of any male politician getting a whole highlight reel of their silly sweaters (or ties, or whatever).

*And I’d contend the DeSantis shoe coverage is unique from…

But he is? 

I have no issue with a man stepping aside to let a much more qualified woman speak on an issue that directly impacts women. Joe can cosign what she says, say he supports her enthusiastically, all while amplifying her voice here.

I guess I just don’t see how Joe is being a bad ally here. 

She does. And while she does contend in the book she was deeply in love with him and seriously impacted by the demise of their relationship, she also doesn’t overly dwell on the abortion narrative (other than to say it was painful and she felt alone). 

If it helps, there are entire Reddit threads that outline the exact episode and timestamps for where there is sexual violence. I use those to skip the violence (and it’s not like it adds anything to the story ever anyway). The last season of the show got way, way better IMHO.

For sure. And this is something victims of all stripes often do, so I can hardly fault Priscilla for doing the same.

This. And let me just say: I am sick and tired of seeing graphic, over the top rape scenes in media. It ruins so many shows and movies for me because it just feels so unnecessary (I’M LOOKING AT YOU, OUTLANDER).

I don’t have to see a woman screaming and begging for her rapist to stop while she winces in pain to know…

As somebody who is fully on Amber’s side in this whole Johnny thing. . . I had the exact same thought. That is 100% Jason Mamoa’s aesthetic and always has been. 

I’m a Commander (and Major!) truther. I think they know some of those agents are up to no good and responding appropriately. 

Our local Starbucks drive thrus have been doing two very annoying things to speed up the process to an almost absurd degree:

1: Now, instead of ordering at the menu and box, there’s a random employee standing way out in the parking lot (where cars would line up if they were backed up) and you place your order with…

There are two photos. 1 kid with Musk in one photo. Then 2 kids with Musk and his twin baby mama in the other. The two kids belong to the parents pictured together, but the kid in the photo of Elon alone is one of his children with Grimes.

I mean, there’s a lot to criticize about this situation (seriously, I agree!),…

Because the Kentucky law is that the Governor has to choose from a list of 3 people provided by the party. The Governor can’t just pick any ol’ Republican. 

While I agree with the broader point of this piece, I do think it’s important to recognize that the way single (or effectively single) 20 or early 30 something year old women on the go talk about or approach abortion is going to be different in some cases than how a happily married, established woman may discuss it.

I…
