We might be sisters. My mom didn’t speak to our next door neighbor for over ten years after her Grandson threw my sister’s snow cone into a puddle. It made block parties and lots of other days............awkward.

My Mom also took out a restraining order against my second ever boyfriend, when she caught us with his bong. It made going to High School, and High School parties interesting, because we couldn’t be within 100 feet of each other without the understanding that he might get arrested. No one blamed me and it made me

“He said what?!..........oh for the love of....alright, call Kevin and have him release a statement please.” *big sigh* “I can’t with this guy.”

I must add that I’ve been able to piece together this much of the story in just the last 3 hours (THAT MANY sources have been talking!). Imagine how much dirt - including what’s in all these FBI/CIA/NSA case files - is yet to come this week.

I am into the shin-high socks for bed. They do not fall off (like ankle socks), but are not too high, and keep my feetz warm and toasty. 🔥

And that wasn’t a joke. Grace was known far and wide as being a superb hostess, she was invited everywhere and in turn invitations from her were highly coveted.

The nice thing about small titties is: they won’t hang!

Progressives and Democrats in those districts should just run as republicans and primary those guys. These are the same voters who supported trump even when he advocated for things that were very non-republican. I bet if someone runs on a platform of cutting the deficit (by taxing the rich), boosting education

I CANNOT HANDLE the news. I keep going back because I feel like I need to be informed, but then this fucker opens his fucking mouth and says something fucking stupid/racist/horrifying and I’m so goddamn embarrassed for our country and INFURIATED that I am stuck here, with this fucking fucker for our fucking president

Oh, they’ll try. But here’s the difference between Stalin and Hitler and Trump. Stalin had to deal with Russians. Hitler had to deal with Germans. Trump has to deal with Americans.

I wish everyone would stop pitying Melania. SHE IS IN ON IT. She has advocated for him and his policies. She clearly just wanted to marry a rich guy, I don’t believe for a second she ever loved him. She knew exactly what she was doing, and she still plans to capitalize off of her association.

There is nothing worse than populism. I don’t get that anti-intellectual, anti-elite sentiment, or the feeling that an “outsider” will do a better job. It’s like religion - just something my brain isn’t capable of. Politicians know politics. I wouldn’t hire someone who’s not a lawyer to represent me in court, or

I’m a California liberal who believes in this absurd idea of universal health insurance, and is willing to pay more than her share so that a child might be able to receive an annual checkup! 💖

Oh, shut the fuck up, Caitlyn.

And also why the North should have liquidated the entire Southern slaveholding class, perhaps by exiling it to Brazil or Australia, instead of allowing it to hold onto its land. Land reform would have benefited whites and blacks alike.

I’ve always felt I am at my desk job only due to some sort of clerical error and I actually should be a “diva” of some sort somewhere. Wearing sparkly dresses and on my third or fourth marriage.

Clinton wasn’t substantially to the right of the electorate though. You brought up single payer as an example in which the majority of the electorate is to the left of Democrats/Clinton, since polling has indicated a majority of Americans support universal health coverage. But that polling indicates that: (1)

I just knew Jolie’s first post split movie press would be totally over the top as usual. She can’t just premiere a film. She has to eat spiders, drag out the entire brood, shut down most of Cambodia, be honored by the leader of the country and pretend she’s high brow by going to the BBC to talk about her FAMILY (™).

So I’m going to be That Girl* (sorry) but it isn’t actually a Lead Belly original. It is a 19th century American traditional folk song with no known writer. The version that Kurt did for Unplugged was a cover of the most popular and well known oversions that Lead Belly recorded (he recorded many throughout his career)
