I feel like Manafort and Flynn are mentally deranged in a very real way. I get a real tv-preacher-style crazy vibe from both of them.

They are far less insufferable than the majority of people would be with the same amount of media exposure. It’s hard not to sound like an oversharing ass when people put a microphone in your face and ask inane questions. They are both funny and talented. More, I am guessing, than can be said for Oli Coleman.

I’ve heard she can be rude, but if Hollywood can’t stand them, in my opinion, that means they are doing something right.

I’m a big enough Veronica Mars (and now The Good Place) fan that I make concerted effort to not read anything about either of them.

Call me basic, but I find their Samsung commercials very cute, and if they were to break up it would be proof yet again that there is no such thing as true love.

I consider myself a jaded pessimist, but for some bizarre reason I find the two of them charming, and am not even bothered by their hardware commercials.

Omg the article I read mentioned the notarios, and I took note of it since I’ve never heard that term.

This is definitely true. But there’s always been a glut of shitty private attorneys who prey on vulnerable immigrant populations. The worst part is that they’re often members of the community themselves, which get them involved. When I was still doing direct representation, I would sometimes talk to clients who had…

I am a grad student at California State University, Dominguez Hills, just outside of South Los Angeles. There is a large population of DACA students as well as DREAMERS here. The Chancellor of the CSU system, Timothy White, has pledged that my campus and all campuses in the CSU will be sanctuaries. Today there were…

Under the 1949 Geneva Conventions, collective punishments are a war crime. Article 33 of the Fourth Convention states: “No protected person may be punished for an offense he or she has not personally committed,” and “collective penalties and likewise all measures of intimidation or of terrorism are prohibited.”

My husband has developed some weird digestive problem and he has to fly all the time and he’s been worried about being on the plane with his weird guts, so I now say “Shart your pants!” for good luck. So far no sharts!

He really needs to go to the doctor.

I just felt like sharing.

I am so glad to be an Old now. All our lives, we’re told that we’ll become invisible at 40, only to find out that being invisible is THE BEST.

My husband is the same way—and he is not physically imposing whatsoever (he’s 5'5", 155 lbs). It never occurs to him the things that I have to think about that he doesn’t. It also doesn’t help that I’ve pointed it out to him many, many times but he doesn’t retain that knowledge nor does he account for any of this…

I went to a pretty rural college near a highway in the southwest. One morning, a male fellow student came to class and told me a story about how he had been roaming around campus at three in the morning, just hanging out and absorbing the peaceful atmosphere. I told him I wished I could do that. Befuddled, he asked…

I have been assaulted by three different men. The first was my uncle when I was 16. He was drunk and evidently moved to tears by some song I sang for my family and he shoved his tongue in my mouth in front of my parents, who brushed the event off as “not a big deal.” The second time was a few years ago, when a man at…

You should send this info over to Indivisible CA 49, they track these conversations and generally know the staffer’s names: https://www.facebook.com/groups/568796709978449/

Tomorrow is the vote on the AHCA, so I did something I do often, and called my Congressman’s district office, that’s Darrell Issa’s office in Vista CA, to ask about his vote, as he has publicly made noises about how he’s not thrilled with such a huge defunding of PP and so many people losing coverage. It’s a lucky day…

I busted out a gutteral laugh so loud it sounded more like this:

I’m sorry that tweet is hilarious.
