And yet there are those - I’m sure I’ve seen them on jez - who say that 2nd pic is an ‘innocent photo’ of a father and his daughter and the rest of us should get our minds out of the gutter

Hart on solo trip to Vegas & hookup, when wife was pregnant: “I made a bad error in judgment and I put myself in a bad environment where only bad things can happen and they did” - Exhibit A in how to not own your actions, instead they ‘happened’. However, this would be exactly why Pence doesn’t have dinner with any…

Well, campaign finance law and also that she was reportedly threatened (starting in 2011) and coerced into signing - if true, that’s not really accepting cash, that’s buying personal safety

Well there’s the story he has told about “a friend” who was part of an unplanned pregnancy & wanted the woman to abort - but she wouldn’t and now he’s very happy and absolutely against abortion... pretty certain that friend has the initials DJT. How to make your kids feel wanted

Her children are going to feel like oddballs, not looking like either parents’ bizarre pixie-ish features. I always wonder about that - you can erase/change features you don’t like or cover them with veneers, but they can still show up on your kids and every single day you’ll have to see those same features you did…

The death occurred 3 years ago, the journal article about it was just published now. Though it’s still reckless to promote ridiculous & unproven‘health’ treatments

Was no one else unnerved by the glimpse of 45 over Carson’s shoulder? Looking like ‘Elvis has left the building’ - it’s a very distinct look, I’ve seen it on my father who has dementia. It’s like suddenly just a shell is there, the essence has disappeared & there is nothingness. Hard to say what is most disturbing…

It’s interesting how much that pic looks like old-face Ivanka. One can imagine what she would have looked like without all that work

Oldman contested that he attempted to grab the phone and it hit her by accident.

I think most of the women he has dated are significantly younger than he is - sure, maybe he’s just a wacky guy, young at heart who just always dates much younger women... Or it could speak to a need for dominance, to be in control, which would not be out of line with someone who harasses women at work. Selective…

Interestingly, a quick glance at google images shows that despite a presumably busy “job that made her one of the most powerful people in Washington”, she’s still somehow found time to experiment with multiple different looks

Their mission “We identify emerging artists who have a unique voice and artistic vision and give them the training and resources they need to fully express themselves.” - is a problem, given the founder was a serial predator who was using his prestige and position to “identify [and target] emerging artists [to prey…

I noticed something in the ‘casual’ spectator pic at the Olympics. Couldn’t pin it down but I think she changed her nose yet again. Combined with the Barbie/anime eye makeup she’s looking like an animated cricket.

That article you linked would be unbelievable, but for the times we’ve been living in. These phrases resonated:

Also, none of those annoying & offensive facial expressions back then, plus it was pre-veneers and he wasn’t baring his teeth

Yes she definitely has her own history to process. And even though she felt the need to frame her error in judgment, I can’t criticize her when many others had long had the habit of championing Polanski before she signed that petition, and many still do

Their poor drummers :(

Interestingly he has the same speech pattern - emphatic statements, general know-it-all irritation, and word repetition. Basically, low-vocabulary bluster - it just worked better for him before cognitive decline

This is emotional abuse, without a doubt. I would speculate this isn’t the first time he’s been emotionally abusive, though possibly not this obviously.

Classic verbose abuser-as-victim. The several I’ve known have a unique ability with the written word, it really shines when they are feeling persecuted. The formal tone with condescension, judgment and blame sprinkled in. The overly-multisyllabic screed that tries to hide ‘wah-wahh, poor me’.
