No--her representatives (lawyers or otherwise) are supposed to be helping her execute her wishes as an autonomous human being--not taking away her phones and isolating her from the outside world.

Because an adult took her there.

my god, that moment on mad men just spoke to my fucking soul.

Ha, I’ve been referred to as “the owner’s wife” in my own business. He, for the record, is the owner’s husband. Seriously, he does not own a square inch of the place. Male employees tend to prefer to speak to him when they have an issue, to which he tells them to talk to their boss.

that only comes second to when he asked Clinton what he should call her because “its very important to me that you’re happy”

i feel like we are stupid because education isn’t prioritized. as long as enough people don’t think critically, campaigns are easier. Also, the fact that civics courses used to be mandatory and now they are all but gone makes a big difference as well. old people KNOW they have to vote, because they were taught that.

True. That’s even dumber, then, because he’s accusing journalists of “covering up” his support even though he’s gotten the lion’s share of attention in this election cycle easily, and not just for the controversies.

“Little Katy”

Vice News interviewed a couple steel workers from PA yesterday, and one guy was like “I voted Bernie, now I’m voting Trump” and I almost had to buy a new fucking TV.

How the FUCK do you think he’s going to bring the steel industry back to PA when China has NO envir. regs and pays their people jackshit?
The guy even BUYS…

At this point my bullshit detectors are overloaded, and I’m having a hard time discerning between legitimate problems, news sturm and drang because they have very little to talk about until Tuesday, the fact that Democrats are flibertigibbets, and Republican spin. Well, the last one is still pretty easy because every…

oh my god, im in the same boat. like, i don’t even like jokes about trump. meanwhile i dressed as sarah palin on halloween in 2008.

I never thought a Presidential Election could actually cause me severe anxiety and actual depression at the same time...four years ago, I remember loving Herman Cain, Rick Perry, etc’s ridiculous moments as I knew they were finite and everything would be ok.

Isn’t it infuriating? Where did people get the idea that their feelings are more important than other people’s lives? If they really believed in these third parties so much, they’d be working to see them elected to lower ticket positions.

Someone, I forget who, noted that this “voting my conscience” bullshit is the exact opposite of conscientious behavior. Conscience is what makes you serve the greater good by doing things that may or may not actually be personally gratifying to you.

Republican Party leaders have already shown that they’re willing to completely sell out any moral scruples they may have had. Mike Pence tweeted that the proposed ban on Muslims was unconstitutional and offensive—now he’s the running mate. Ted Cruz refused to endorse at the convention—-he eventually broke down. Jason…

Please don’t overlook that we’ve already had 8 years of a dangerously inept president, his name was George W Bush and the flaming pile of shit he left behind is still smoldering, despite 8 years of competent leadership.

Except that the woman would end up in jail for murder. Laws aren’t kind to women who protect themselves from male abuse.

Well he’s already talked about getting rid of freedom of the press. He’s talked about using stop and frisk as a means of confiscating people’s guns, and he’s threatened to throw the leader of the opposition party into jail if he gets elected. He pretty much sounds like he’s running for election as a dictator of a…

I’m not sure what’s more astounding: your condescension or your stupidity. Clearly, you must possess white skin, and a penis, I’d wager. No one else would be as cavalier about the civil rights as others. “Hunker down, Others. Just ride the shit storm of oppression out. Eight years is nothing.”

Ah man I cant believe I missed the window to submit. Honestly I look forward to this every year. Might as well write mine here in case anyone wants additional reading.
