Judging by this article on this site and the general state of humanity, no one ever listens to truth. Just change your name to Cassandra and get used to it.
Paris Hilton was an omen none of us heeded.
Same as publishing a book about trump rather than helping actual government officials and the media inform the American public about trump’s special brand of corruption, ignorance, and dangerous dismantling of American rights and interests. I get so sick of people coming out with books to sell - fucking just take your…
Don’t be fooled, that’s just Internet glamour. :)
Funny, in therapy now for anxiety/trauma and my therapist does the same. He really tries to normalize my experience and minimize what it means even when I tell him I’m not a particularly nice person and am a real asshole most of the time. I find it actually troubling how he excuses me. There must be some strategy here…
Well Parnas’s notes just broke, as well as letters, pictures, and witnesses that Yovanovich was likely targeted for assassination or at least harm...this is why they wanted speed, but shit is breaking and new evidence has been added by Schiff, including sensitive phone logs.
One of the truest things I’ve read on this site. It’s definitely the illusion trump creates exactly because he is so awful, in the ways only a white man can be. If nothing else, at some primitive level trump knows this about himself and his followers.
I figured someone knew what was going on. ;) I’m just not cool.
I saw a theory on Twitter that this was a secret message to someone for some reason. So there’s that.
A la Jessica Seinfeld.
I would read that.
My ex and I, drunk on love and the coming baby and the movie Superbad, almost gave his middle name as McLovin. We of course didn’t after people talked us off that cliff, so what I’m saying is no one had the balls to tell them this was really bad. Terrible name.
Lo, this much time has passed and I popped over to find a summary here and dive into the commentary, but, nothing. I barely visit the GMG sites anymore, even as a long time commenter. I really only visit theroot now, as only they seem to still care about real stories affecting our lives.
I’m no expert, but the films I’ve seen by WOC are typically more authentically made, not just money grabs or pandering to (young male) audiences. They are also themselves more diversely cast, represent a wide swath of cultures and perspectives, and tell better stories. But in truth I can only name one black female…

I feel like this isn’t nearly enough as a settlement in this case. This was traumatic, but also horribly racist. This is peanuts for a settlement and after costs will not really change her life or situation. Perhaps the systemic changes in policy and practice brought by this case will be the real difference, but…
I have a colleague who totes around a beat up Amazon shipping box to meetings with I assume stuff in it. I’m not sure if he keeps using the same one every time I see him, but he’s a tenured professor of creative writing, so I’m sure this is meant to be quirky and something designed to get people to ask him questions…
The few times I’ve worn heels, always under duress, I stagger around like a newborn calf. I have regretted each attempt because there was literally no reason to wear these torture devices and I caved to cultural pressure.
Blame it on Google then:
