To those people, education is an extension of childrearing, and childrearing is the responsibility of the mother because the man of the household has work to do outside of the home.

That’s what people who want to run for president always say before they announce that they are running for president.

Apparently Don Jr. did try to get away from the Trump life. He lived out west somewhere for a couple of years, working as a bartender where no one knew his name. But I guess for all of the “hardships” of being a Trump, the privileges drew him back to NYC and the Trump Organization.

I really only like her unrealeased stuff and Ultraviolence, but I really, really love those. I am trying to keep my expectations moderated, because ~happy songs 4 the kids~ isn’t really my thing at all, but I am looking forward to at least seeing where she’s going with this new album.

I have to disagree about GRRM and his ability to write women. While the first book is not good with how the women are written, the books after that are actually fantastic (minus Cersei, which may be the only character that is better handled in the show, as endlessly entertaining and loopy as her written chapters are).

Yes, it looks like the new Senate bill has provisions to funnel funds just to Alaska... I hope she won’t take it, knowing that the rest of the country is getting worse than a bad deal, but I don’t have my hopes up...

I think the most telling analysis of Don Jr.’s “transparency” comes from the NYTimes editorial board. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/11/opinion/donald-trump-jr-emails-russia.html?action=click&pgtype=Homepage&clickSource=story-heading&module=opinion-c-col-left-region&region=opinion-c-col-left-region&WT.nav=opinion-c-co…

You should see a new gyno, and also in the meantime should know that Depo can also cause sexual side effects. I think all hormonal birth control methods can have sexual side effects. If I remember correctly hormonal IUDs are less likely to cause decreased sex drive than birth control pills, but they may have that…

All that said, in response to the picture chosen to accompany this article, I did find Ivanka’s sleeveless dress that she wore to the joint address to Congress (which did take place on the floor) to be out of line.

This dress code isn’t new, but it is generally only enforced for people going onto the House/Senate floor. If you are wearing a sleeveless dress, no blazer or sweater that you can put on top, you will get stopped before you can enter the floor. Granted, a sweater is only permissible if you are wearing a dress; if…

I’m glad more information about this is coming out after the sensational first reporting, and I am withholding judgement as to what I think happened and who - if anyone - is responsible.

Yeah, when so-called anti-trafficking advocates do not support efforts to curb labor trafficking, I cannot take them seriously.

My comment is mega old now, but I was just looking for these videos and couldn’t find them. I just noticed that they have all be taken down! I’m not sure if there are other copies that have been uploaded, floating somewhere around the internet... but I am so disappointed that these videos were apparently deleted!

I won’t weigh in on the subjective matter of beauty, but her nose does appear to get smaller and her nostrils more pinched as the years go on. Hence, the Voldemort comparison is appropriate.

The best punishment would be solitary confinement for him. No one to to say “yes, sir” to him. No way to tweet to get the “truth” of the story out. Silence. In a room alone, save an hour a day with the guards in a slightly larger room. Forever.

It’s unclear what the scope of the special counsel’s investigation will be - if it can reach back to investigate/prosecute crimes that pre-date the 2016 election. But if it does (or if there is a US Attorney somewhere investigation it, which it seems like is happening), Ivanka is in trouble. She has her fingerprints…

Dang.

Comey messed up, for sure, but it seems like a trap was set for him, and Trump was waiting for the moment that Comey made any mistake or showed any weakness to kick him out. Not much more sophisticated than a storyline on “The Apprentice.”

It’s within the realm of possibilities that the BLT Steaks in the Trump hotel keeps a separate set of pans, plates, etc (can’t imagine they have an oven reserved solely to them) for them when they visit the hotel. But the Palm? Please. Even if Ivanka orders a pasta dish, that plate has has meat, milk, pork, lobster,…
