In other news, Debbie Reynolds is in the emergency room with a possible stroke. That family has gone through too much these last few days. Hopefully she makes it through this..
Well this is a surprise to no one.
I’m a DV survivor. Let’s be honest, the only reason he then threatened to kill himself is so that she wouldn’t call the police or leave him. My ex suddenly became suicidal when I was officially done and on my way out. Threats like that are still a form of control.
Wait. The mandatory breast implants and brazilian waxes for all women under 30 are coming.
Same thing happened to me there 2 weekends ago.
In any situation, politicians won’t speak up for women who are abused. But, South Carolinians, definitely won’t. More women are killed because of domestic violence in SC than anywhere else in the nation. I couldn’t find the excellent, seven-piece series the State did on DV, but here’s an article on the numbers from…
I’m sure they just assume she was “asking for it.”

That’s the thing a lot of people don’t understand... it’s not a difference of political opinion anymore, it’s an issue of common human decency. And the republicans have shown that they have none - almost every hill they make a stand on is genuinely about keeping the downtrodden down under the boot of the…
People don’t want to believe they’re “the bad guys”; they don’t want to acknowledge their forbearers did the wrong thing. So, instead of confronting that, they alter and whitewash history and teach their kids the edited version of history. So you end up with a whole population with the Wrong Idea, and then those…
I’ve been listening to a podcast about the Civil War. As a foreigner I didn’t learn much about American history in school and now that I live here I feel the need to learn it in order to understand the country better. And forgive my naiveté but I had no idea racism and white supremacy were so deeply ingrained into the…
