This doesn’t surprise me. Cycles of abuse are self-perpetuating. I’m surprised more people aren’t pointing out how distressingly similar the details of this assault are to her allegation against Weinstein: the grooming and isolating of the victim, providing alcohol before attacking etc. It’s infuriating to think…

Poor Ivanka! She must have felt like a baby separated from her mother and put in a cage. *hugs*

Pot makes pizza better and helps with periods, seizures and breakups. Pot does not make men better husbands.

Rep Diane Black, one of Trump’s most fervent supporters from the beginning, lost her bid for Governor of Tennessee lastnight!!! I am FILLED WITH GLEE. She was a pretty prominent politician and had a definite future in House leadership, but she abandoned her seat in order to make this run. And she fucking failed. And I…

fine, I’ll ask it: how come you can tweet with a busted fingernail but not text, Miss D?

DING DING DING WE HAVE A WINNER.

“Muriel’s Wedding”?

To be fair, “I’m not the kind of girl who does this” sounds exactly like what college-age me would say 10 seconds before humping someone new.

This little bit of mini reunion is allegedly happening because of the stuff that’s about to come out concerning Dan Schneider and his behind the scenes...situations.

I don’t think it’s misleading. We’re not starting from scratch here. We’ve got a system in place for how translated contracts work in Arizona.
