And here I thought it was the late stage symptoms of syphilis.

Go back under your rock, troll.

Does any of it really matter.
I mention this because I did learn my lesson, I urge others to not repeat.
Did you miss the regret part? Or is your reading comprehension that low?

No, you go fuck your self. Did you not understand the regret part. 

I voted for her too, and I would have preferred to vote for Bernie myself. (I really am a supporter). I don’t think Bernie would have won against Trump either.

And none of this matters when we will no longer have the right to vote.

Woman #1: Colorado (lives in the ‘burbs’ of Denver on her five acre property and raises donkeys for fun...)

All I could think of was “but her emails...”
Really? That’s all people could think of to say why they didn’t want to vote for a woman. No thought to big picture issues’.

This is nothing new. He’s been questioning the legitimacy of voting since before he was elected.

What shocks me more is how so many of my friends who did not see this coming. (At least three have all separately posted this article in FB already.)

I stopped at my regular wine store and asked what they would recommend and the guys were like “whoah - where should I begin?” ha. So, they mostly suggested making appointments for places I wanted to go and I already have one winery in mind and it’s near a town someone else recommended so - it’s coming together!

Haha - we might just fit in! My quieter friend can put it away, but the other woman is a light weight - and gets red-faced :)

The train sounds awesome! And while I’d prefer a quieter low key place (I might do my own separate bday trip to the ocean), it sounds like Napa is a fun lively trip and we won’t expect to much…

I should add: I’m not a wine snob but I know the difference between a buttery chardonnay and an unoaked chardonnay and appreciate the difference. 

50th Birthday coming up! *

I was offered an all expenses paid to a western European country this fall (there was a professional obligation on my part), but I declined for (1) because I was pretty sure US citizens were going to be on restricted travel because it was clear 45 and his federal government was going to do fuck all to contain this…

My mother is thankfully somewhat aware and agrees with me that the US has done a (purposefully) shameful job containing the virus. However, when I told her “you know, we can’t even leave the country right now because no country will allow us to travel there, places like Canada.” There was a couple of beats where it…

The disdain. The misogyny. The racism. The ignorance. The hatred.

Most Europeans are racist in general - and tribalist. I lived in central Europe for a year right out of college and it was eye opening. But yet, the racism and hatred for other is different. At least it was over 20 years ago, I assume the tenor has changed as it has in the USA.

I would classify her as Eurotrash, but she’s not even that klassy.

My grandparents were the same way - they were just miserable people to begin with but between my grandpa finding a highly paid blue collar worker with a great pension and benefits and not spending a cent more than necessary ever, there was a lot of cash in the bank, enough to create a small trust for the family.
Until…

Is it me, or has Ivanka had enough work done on her face that it’s not quite hers anymore?
I had to look closely to make sure that was her and not some other vapid blonde zombie in 45s sphere. The chin is markedly...pointier. Maybe just the camera angle. Or maybe it’s Maybeline? Or Silicone?
