Agreed. If I had even a smidge more money and more flexibility to take off, I would have jetted somewhere warm during the past few weeks and I haven’t even been suffering through a black out the way they have in Texas (I’m in Oklahoma which has been even colder but with a somewhat more stable power grid). It has…

Y’all realize that TEdward has a perfectly warm & comfy D.C. place where he coulda brought the fam and done his destroying Democracy work. He’s a TX person with an extra home ... but maybe he’s afraid of Heidi & girls seeing his current soup stash and Trump BDSM outfits.

She’s not naïve. She’s rich. She did what any rich person would have done in that situation. It’s cold as fuck, I’m going to Cancun to the Ritz for some spa time. Notice who came back. NOT HER. Fuck you, Ted, you’re the one that wants to run for president, you go there. I’m staying here with my rich ass.

I think her bad judgment was marrying Ted Cruz.

Republican voters time and again show that political instincts and optics mean jack and shit to them. As long as you are able to weasel your way into the position R voters will vote for you no matter how bad you fuck up or how little you do for your constituents.

Assuming you as a family feel any shame whatsoever, or care if your spouse keeps his job. She’s a partner at Goldman. He’s highly employable, probably even after this. There are no consequences for them because they just don’t care what people think. 

Her naïveté and bad judgment through all this is striking. A political spouse of 10+ years really ought to know better than to participate in bad optics. Even if he had suggested it, the job of political families is to try to minimize and anticipate any embarrassing exposures for their political family member.

Alternate perspective: The group chat does indeed know loyalty. They are loyal to their friend Heidi and united with the rest of the nation in hating her husband. 

and honestly, she is in her 30's, this isn’t like that creepy scott disick business we’re talking about here..  

Jason Sudeikis has done what most famous men in their 40s do when their relationship ends, which is start dating a blonde model roughly 10 years their junior

“Like if a talented, rich white woman married this mega rich guy would anyone bat an eye”

So, at the risk of “libsplaining” this is... incredibly consistent with what Biden’s been saying since he’s been campaigning. Further, average debt isn’t quite as useful as median debt — since the people with significant ($200K+) debt throws the average out of whack.

Same thought - bad word choice, but her sentiment was not truly trying to say discrimination, but rather assumptions/pre-judgements.

I wonder if this was just a case of poor wording on her part. I just looked up her wikipedia bio, and it says she is dyslexic-combine that with the fact that she speaks at least two languages and probably three if she’s married to a frenchman, and it reads more like “we’re constantly having to defend against stereotype…

Yes yes yes! I have a male friend who is in his 30s and has never been in a long-term relationship because as soon as the initial butterflies fade, he dips. He literally told the last woman (after 7 months) “I love you. The sex is great. I honestly feel like you’re my best friend and can talk to you about everything,…

It seems like most of the jokes from Eichner and Silverman are just... celebrity ribbing though? They’re not making fun of her mental health issues, which is a whole different problem. 

That seems to be the typical anti-vaxxer line.

I saw him speak about environmental issues one time in law school. He was incredibly passionate, eloquent, and charismatic, which makes his anti-vax bullshit all the more disappointing.  Such a waste of potential...

This is exactly why we decided to do premarital counseling with a licensed professional instead of a priest like our parents did. 

Idk, I think it’s safe to assume two major celebrities have a bit more going on than a feminist blog writer and her partner and maintaining a healthy relationship would take a little more work in that environment.
