Let’s add one: the time he got caught sneaking off to Mexico and blamed it on his two daughters. Father of the fucking year.

Interesting he asks for the privacy he just denied for millions of American women. Screw him.

Republicans don’t really care about any social issues, their stances on them are only a means to power and money. 

Ted Cruz is simultaneously a maximally awful person to everyone, and someone who obviously doesn’t ever believe a word of what he says. Ivy League guy slumming it with the yokels because nobody is ever too much of a jerk to get elected by Republicans.

The daughter that is most likely the one being referenced has said publicly that she identifies as bi and pretty much disagrees with most of his views. Poor girl is probably in a constant state of feeling mentally abused.

I saw the linked news article where she said her dad probably didn’t care that she was bi.

I can’t speak to outlets’ decision on what and what not to cover, but the terms Ted Cruz himself has laid out for us all is that what would seem to be personal family matters (whether, when, and under what circumstances to have children, what recreational activities to take your children to, what medical care to…

There’s literally nothing I could care about less than hurting Ted Cruz personally. In fact, I probably fall more on the side of being in favor of him experiencing discomfort and unhappiness...

“or 911"

This poor kid’s situation is fucked from all angles. Her dad’s a well-known POS and, if it’s true she’s bi-sexual, I can only imagine how that’s going to go down in that household. Part of me loves what is happening to Mr. Cruz while the logical and realistic part of me only worries for that child and how she has to…

I mean, if “provides gender affirming care to trans children in consultation with a doctor” is sufficient evidence of abuse to take people’s children from them and throw them in jail, Cruz probably deserves the death penalty for this.

He’s a piece of shit, no need for further proof we already got that years ago.

Teenage years suck and the added notoriety of being Cruz’s daughter probably makes navigating society a bit harder than it should be. An event like this being plastered over the Internet gives another weapon for people to attack a young woman who has little control over why she’s so notable.

Don’t forget that:

Keep going, don’t stop.

This is the breakdown that people were warning about. It was never going to be one giant implosion, but a bunch of small breakdowns until the inconsistency drives everyone away

One good thing I’ve noticed, as someone who no longer has a Twitter account, is that when I click links for tweets, I’m no longer prompted with the SIGN IN pop-up if I scroll too far. I remember that hacker dude Elon hired wanted to get rid of that first, and it looks like he succeeded. Which is funny because that…

as if it were only the notifications that are broken.....

I have noticed that a tweet might say it has something like 847 replies, and you try to load them all and there are only 5, with four of those being some spam. There just seems to be no way to view most replies, and quote tweets are often completely impossible to see. 

Not just notifications. A lot of times tweets won’t load, threading seems randomly glitchy.
