You know, I want to believe her - I really do, but she’s going to have to show the evidence.

It’s been a long couple weeks, I think we all deserve this. (Sure, it also helps that he’s wildly talented, but today it’s all about the pretty.)
I really can’t take it. It’s wearing on me.
Sigh....
Back in college, I partied frequently at a certain frat house and frequently got wasted. I do remember scurrying off to the downstairs “fun room” (it was a room off a tunnel that went from the house to the garage) with a guy I was hot for at the time. I also remember when his “brothers” unexpectedly joined us and held…
The problem is our stories only have merit when corroborated by men.
I say this and i mean this with every fiber of my being: fuck these traitorous cunts. Fuck each and every one of them.
Remember how the internet put all those marching Nazis in Charlottesville on blast? Distributed their faces and got them ID’ed (and in several cases fired from their jobs)? It would be great if that happened to all the “women for trump” laughing at his mockery in this photo.
I'm snuggled in bed and reading Jez, with my cat laying next to me. It's been a hard week this week, to be honest it's been a hard few years. Reading and watching about Dr Ford has upset me a lot and my anxiety is sky high. It's heightened feelings about what happened to me a long time ago and I've only been dealing…
I am in favor of a daily open thread, can this please be enacted?
Last week while discussing this case, my mom finally told me that once when she was in her ‘20s when I was a baby, her car broke down and she was hitchhiking to get to my dad so he could help her. She took a ride with a guy who then drove her to a field and began to attack her. She says by kicking and screaming as…
I can’t remember if it was a comment here, or a tweet, or an article, but someone described the whole hearing and process as “the collective pain of women being laid bare,” and just, yep.
I read that news this morning before I got in the shower... and as soon as the water was on, I sat down in the tub and cried for ten minutes. I don’t know why I’m surprised.
I’m so sorry your night ended up like this. My husband and I went to take dinner to friends who just had a baby, and that was probably the nicest part of my day and I’m thankful I got a small reprieve.
I want to call Graham’s office even though I’m not a constituent and tell him what MY night was like last night.
I used to do this every now and then but it’s been a couple years at this point.. so for old times’ sake, here is a list I’ve compiled of some of my all time favorite Gwyneth Paltrow quotes from over the years:
“INDELIBLE IN THE HIPPOCAMPUS IS THE LAUGHTER.”
Per Bob Woodward’s book, Graham aligned himself with Trump in an effort to try to shape Trump’s views on foreign policy and the military (eg getting him to take a harder line against Assad and doubling down in Afghanistan), and this started over a year before McCain died.
I’m so angry at these men I don’t know what to do with myself. Just sheer, impotent rage. You know this shitwad is getting confirmed and it was all a sideshow, a deliberate slapping down of anyone who cares about truth, morality, fairness, decency,etc., etc., etc. Our country was always deeply flawed as a political…
