I want to feel...elated...but I need a less than “elated” word. They don’t call that stupid fuck Teflon Don for nothin’. I’ll say, I’m intigued by the first charges. Happily intrigued.

Shared this on the AV Club but I’m gonna share it here too. A 1992 letter to The New Yorker Magazine where Donald Trump is not pretending to be one of his former employees.

I’ve always thought magicians seem super creepy. Like if you’re entire shtick is deceiving people mainly through psychological manipulation, it seems like you’re a likely candidate to pull off creepy shit in your personal relationships.

I wish it weren’t true but please someone show me the lie

I was friends with a girl who had dated David Blaine. The only thing I ever heard about it was that he was an annoying creep who wouldn’t leave her alone. So this tracks.

and again I say

i’m an autistic woman and i’ve tried to have this conversation with that particular commenter before—he is very stuck in his mindset and very limited in his ability to imagine other people’s perspectives, and he’s a terrible listener when the speaker/typer is female. these factors don’t bode well to make this guy less…

Why do guys always insist on the socially awkward pass? Like women aren’t socially awkward, like we just all magically are able to read all body language, understand all subtext, and parse all hidden meanings?

Oh God, it’s you. I remember you from about a year ago, because you made such an impression. Basically you came across as a misogynist. I remember that you thought most women were shallow, boring and racist. That women had nothing interesting to say and never will. You are having trouble with women because you have no…

I would like to encourage women who feel uncomfortable with certain guys to consider why do you feel uncomfortable?

Haha, I’ve had this disagreement with friends. Just because a woman is at a bar with a book it doesn’t mean she’s lonely. People read. People read and have a drink.

I feel uncomfortable when men show me that they do not respect my boundaries.

I’m sorry (not sorry) but I’m getting angrier and angrier about this the more I think about it. If your takeaway message after ALL. THIS. Sexual assault and harassment fuckery (that you presumably notice on the front page of JEZEBEL) is:

And yet, every year, millions of men date millions of women... I hear your confusion and angst but let’s not go overboard with the hyperbole.

I think the bigger problem is that the DNC is doing “business as usual” when they need to be figuring out how to beat the republicans with a populist stance.

“ Superdelegate appointments have always been about rewarding loyal donors and supporters, and I don’t think there’s necessarily anything wrong with that.”

If I’m never approached by another guy, ever, for the rest of my life, I’d die a happy person. There is absolutely nothing I hate more than minding my own business out in public and having my day be ruined by some dude with no boundaries.

Ummm, that’s not it.

lol you really don’t get it. You being terrible at social situations is mostly your fault. Women being punished in professional settings is in no way their fault

You sound like you want to get it, but I don’t think you do.
