Gladly! I am Swiss, so the chocolate is good ;-)

Again, the mess up wouldn’t be relevant to portraits and people didn’t smile in them either. Not all people had messed up teeth nor did they consider it such a problem, and again, many people smile without showing teeth. You know who was portrayed smiling both in photographs as well as in paintings of the time? Poor,…

If you are interested in adopting a pig do some proper research, not asking some random commenter.

Kind of reminds me on how after my mother moved in my sisters old room on “the kids floor” (2 bedrooms and a bathroom) because of my fathers snoring suddenly my parents began investigating why the faucet in the bathroom only trickled water and why the wifi connection was so weak. after telling me for 10 years that it…

But look at the great granddaughter holding her picture- neither of them is showing her teeth but one is smiling.

Somebody else mentioned that they might have made deals, like, ok, we support Carson but then you will vote with us against xy.

For a majority of which their facial expression didn’t matter the tiniest bit. And even for the part in which their expression mattered, no painted portrait was ever ruined because a model needed to move their facial muscles once in a while before returning to the right expression.

I dont know the rate, but it’s a record low.

Viability. If the foetus is viable it won’t be aborted but simply a caesarean will be performed. An 8 months old foetus will only be aborted if because of some fetal abnormality the life of the mother is in danger and the foetus can’t survive anyway.

But you have people whose heartbeats are basically done by machines and on the other hand you have people with heart beat but no brain function.

I hope one day you will be able to stop blaming yourself. You sound like a wonderful, strong person. Thank you for sharing your story and feelings. All the best and plenty of virtual hugs & chocolate (if you want them)

Sure, but people were also not as obsessed with smiling and appearing friendly or happy. Look at portraits done in the same time period.

I thought that maybe it wasn’t an accident but she was put there to improve herself and maybe also improve the others or something like that or that she was sent there because the system is shitty and she is there to break it or something but not this. Sooo good.

You want to be able to comment on a movie you haven’t seen but get hurt and get really aggressive when people respond with a different opinion? Lol

Do you disputed the fact that she was an intern? That he was the president? That there is an immense power imbalance between the two? I think we could that alone count as mistreatment, but it goes further. When the whole thing surfaced they decided to make her the scapegoat, his aides called her a “unstable, predatory…

It doesn’t have to be 100% the one or the other. I don’t doubt that she married him for his money but that doesn’t mean that she would have married anyone with money. It’s completly possible that she married him because he was rich & charming and she thought he would “treat her like a princess”. Also, he is very…

If nothing else having an affair with a young intern while you are the president is mistreatment, just because of the insane power imbalance.

Call your reps? Organize marches? Support democrats running for office (and by support I mean not just voting for them on the day but volunteer, get the word out, etc.) ?
