It’s bad enough to just assume the man is the politician (then again, that’s how GOP tends to work), but that she struggled to understand after being told is just baffling. They try to sell her as smart but clearly she is as brand-washed as any woman who supports the GOP.

I’ve told that riddle several times to grown adults and it is endlessly amusing (but also concerning) to me how many people are sure the right answer is “gay dads” instead of the more statistically probable “mom doctor”

I understand not knowing leaders all over the world, but wouldn’t the hours or days before an event like this be filled with prep, looking at pictures and memorizing names and such? Especially for the first lady, whose “job” is to host guests at the white house.

This is what I thought as well. Jackson deliberately drove a wedge between those men and their mothers while promoting himself as their sole love object. That went on for years, and it doesn’t vanish overnight.

I’m sorry that happened to you. You did not deserve it. Sending you thoughts of healing and support.

Please be gentle with yourself. I’m so sorry that was done to you, and I know how hard it is to face it, even after a long time. You are in my heart and my thoughts. 

I didn’t know how profoundly After Neverland was going to impact me. Really wish I hadn’t watched it. There was childhood sexual abuse in my family that I thought had been neatly tucked away but this film ripped that fucking wound right open. I doubt I’ll get a good night sleep for a long while.

My wife and I went through a very similar experience, but we are in Ohio. Went in for a routine check up at 20 weeks. The doctor came in and told us they suspected he had bilateral renal agenesis, meaning he didn’t develop kidneys and likely wouldn’t be able to develop lungs. Told us they have only ever had one case…

As a parent, I can’t imagine how heart-wrenching this must have been. Thank you for being brave enough to share it. 

I’m continually amazed that there are thousands, maybe millions of people living in the same world as me but experiencing a completely different reality. Like, they see the same events I do and have access to the same information I do, yet they come to such bonkers, obviously impossible conclusions, like “men face a…

Translation:

He knows he will get confirmed if he doesn’t withdraw. He doesn’t care what this does to his family, his friends, his victims or the country. His ambition is not bound by the tiniest bit of decency.

From the NBC article:

Anyone with a smidgen less entitlement would have withdrawn their name by now. This guys a fucking sociopath. A raging drunk sociopath. 

Jesus. The senile old goat thought she said, “I’m not thinking, Mr. President,” when she actually said, “I’m not. Thank you, Mr. President.” As in, I’m not surprised that you picked me. What a fucking moron he is.

I think one of the greatest silent justices I saw this weekend was the SNL skit with Matt Damon as Kavanaugh. Why? Because Dr. Blasey Ford wasn’t depicted. They left her out specifically, as if to say, “We will only make caricatures of those who chose to be in the spotlight.” I am proud of them for that, so that Ford…

Such a nasty man.

How is this even possible? How can they all not stand up and leave. Jesus.

Dr. Blasey Ford knew what was going to happen. The accusations, the slander, the lies, the death threats against her and her family.

I remember guys like him in HS.
