The point I’m trying to make is that Trump will only grant a pardon to someone who needs one if someone like Kim K asks for it. It’s more to illustrate how absurd that bar is, not meant to minimize the work that advocates and lawyers do every day to work on repairing the system.

“...I didn’t think I was important enough to make a big deal over.”

This makes me so goddamn angry!

Highlighter muppet is fabulous.

Merrily.

I can’t blame her for wanting to keep her job.

Michell Wolf, thankfully, doesn’t have advertisers to please.

I’m disappointed but I certainly understand it.

Four reporters spotted Melania in the White House last week walking merrily along to a meeting. They never reported the sighting because it would hurt the sick narrative that she was living in a different part of the world, was really ill, or whatever.

Supporting the false equivalency that what Sam Bee said is somehow on par with what Roseanne said is such bullshit. The way we capitulate to the narrative the right constructs is part of the reason why they’re able to sell the public blatant untruths.

I have never truly felt actively suicidal, but the closest I’ve felt is what you describe: “if I died in my sleep tonight I wouldn’t really care.”

Every time I see pics depicting a Trump in prison clothes, I have to remind myself that Arrested Development is actually fiction and not some Truman show re-write that we are all forced to live through.  

I think about this everyday. On the outside I am a fairly successful attorney/writer working in nonprofit in DC. I volunteer, I went to law school as a second career late in life. I travel extensively and I’m a photographer who takes pretty good wildlife shots.

Saffo said she and Andy Spade tried to help Kate check into treatment centers, but that she never went because “the ‘image’ of her brand (happy-go-lucky Kate Spade) was more important for her to keep up. She was definitely worried about what people would say if they found out.”

I, for one, say give him the deal. This is the same guy who, when questions arose about his willingness to collude with Russia, released emails on Twitter showing his willingness to collude with Russia. If this dipshit writes a book, who knows how many crimes he’ll admit to?

that sounds familiar. I’ve followed my spouse all over the country for his job. He kept going up the ladder; I’d get stuck in yet another entry level job in my profession, where I’d work for less than a year before we moved again. One day he was moaning about how I never got a job where i had more than two weeks of…

I have a friend who was very much like this. He was on the football team in college and his wife was a cheerleader. He went into business, she did random stuff. When we met them, she wasn’t working, and he complained about her not contributing to the expenses (even though she was a SAHM for their three kids). So she…

They want the virgin who’s a demon in the sack, and they want the ‘50s housewife who earns like a career woman. Shy, yet assertive! Complex, yet simple!

I went to college with a guy who got married when he was 21. They met in college, but his wife worked odd jobs that didn’t make much money, while he had a career in engineering. He used to bitch constantly about how she had low wage retail jobs and how he felt burdened paying for everything, including her large…
