Hey! It’s another “bofe-sidez” argument!

Obviously you’re a trollie but you do raise a pertinent point that this “he’s broke so he would take bribes” is hypocritical. It’s also so blatantly not the case here. He’s not a starving bartender: he’s a crook and hiding assets. Duh.

Some Republicans—including Jordan’s supporters—have expressed concern that the pressure campaign that Jordan’s surrogates are leading is counterproductive.

I certainly wouldn’t oppose a bipartisan solution, but the Democrats shouldn’t just agree for free.

I’m sorry but like, he’s 83. He probably has a tremor and gets sent to bed early because he “sundowns.” The idea that 83 year olds are any kind of involved as parents is straight-up goofy.

You’re correct, and I’d like to know just how many celebrities *of any age* change diapers, get up in the middle of the night, etc. instead of hired help.

The term “geezer dick” will be bouncing around my head all day. So, you know, thanks.

Dunno how to feel about these two. Do I want my Shit Sandwich to be Diarrhea Smooth or Chunky with Gravel and Shards of Glass?

But who the hell else should we listen to, then? Experts?!?!?!?!?!!??

Actually! I believe this is a sequel to one I watched last year where the protagonist is getting bothered by the HOA because the house (which actually belongs to her parents) isn’t sufficiently decorated for Christmas. Can’t trust an HOA no matter what.

On it!

You just KNOW the plot of that one involves the cute new guy who moves in and decks the shit out of his house with Christmas stuff but the HOA president says it all violates HOA rules and said girlfriend is TORN!...

People who drag unknowing others into the closet with them are a whirlwind of toxicity. It isn’t just the sheer mindfuck of your reality being turned on its head when that person comes out - it’s all of the mindfuckery that precedes it: the projection, the gaslighting, the lack of emotional presence, the general cloud…

Perfectly said. I know that feeling as well... and I was married to my ex-husband for 24 years. This article was infuriating and ridiculously selfish.

So why did you marry him if you knew you were queer?  Did he know this going on or what?  It seems shitty to paint your husband in a bad light with no context whatsoever.  So you found a ground of women who deserved to have their story heard, good for you and them.  Torpedoing your husband in the process doesn’t seem…

Wow, taking that linked article and this one together, the author does NOT come across well. I’m now happy for the ex-husband, having escaped a relationship with such a self-obsessed, self-righteous partner. Good luck to her future partners, because she’s likely to be equally shitty going forward.

I’ve mentioned it here before, but this seems like a prime moment to weigh in as a cishet woman whose spouse came out as gay after we’d been married for ten years.

From a few years back:

This struck me as... profoundly delusional and kind of the embodiment of the very worst parts of today’s queer culture. You fell in love with a man, married him, decided to write a book about pioneering women in sports who largely happened to be gay. All good! Love that.

I began to be resentful of my husband, to feel suffocated.
