Oh no, dear, I’m not a Paper Scot. I’m born-and-bred Glaswegian (you know, the “scary” Scottish people, even though I’ve been told that I sound like James McAvoy and Peter Capaldi - only one of those is from my neck of the woods) and not some idiot who spat in a test-tube and now claims to be descended from Mary Queen…

100% correct. She’s a HUGE drama quern who loves getting her ass kissed. She’s doing everything she can to wring every last bit of attention out of this before she heads to the glamour-free world of lobbyists.

What I hate is that we’re so outside of nature that we choose the most quiet, introspective and hibernatey time of the year to have this month long burst of activity. It’s friggin manic. Yes, its a pagan holiday, but up until the winter solstice they were hunkered down and trying not to freeze. Then they were just cele…

In my family we tend to not make a big deal about Christmas Day or Boxing Day. Yes, there’s a big meal. Yes, we give presents. But we don’t force people to be jolly and spend time with people who we can’t fucking stand the other 364 days of the year, no sir.

I’m in Australia in the tropics and I hate Christmas. I have 2 teenage boys who enjoy the holiday.. And who I would do anything to make them happy, but I detest this holiday. I hate the crowds, traffic, the stress, the expectations of getting people gifts they will like, I hate having to do the damn tree, and having…

“Removing myself from the partisan structure—not only is it true to who I am and how I operate”

Yea here is hoping we can kick her curtsying ass to the curb

Exactly. Moreso, Krysten’s true party is he own self-interest. 

Someone’s been sulking all week that everyone would pay a little less attention to her.

I honestly think it’s cuz everyone was saying “if Warnock wins we won’t have to worry about Synema anymore” and she took that as a challenge.

I really don’t like her veiled threat... if she doesn’t keep her committee assignments, she’ll stop canvassing with the Democrats. It reveals a lot about her. She could have switched to Independent and said she would continue to canvass with Democrats. That would have been all it took to keep her committee…

This is a temper tantrum of the highest order. It’s not a shock that it came AFTER the Dems got to 51 ... because that meant she was less important, and would get on TV less, and in the headlines less.

*looks in the mirror*

Will the DNC do a better job vetting people in the future?

I don’t think she honestly wants to be anything other than on camera.

This fool was Green before she was a Dem, and she’ll be an Independent until she’s a “Reasonable” Republican. She has no principles except those which she is instructed to have by her corporate sponsors.

Even if they could understand them, they wouldn’t care.  This whole thing is letting them wail away about being victimized.  They’re likely pretty happy it happened actually.

“It’s about the overall positions and policies the group has taken—it’s not about Christian vs. non-Christian.” (For example, it doesn’t seem likely that the restaurant would cancel the booking of a Christian group that supports LGBTQ+ and abortion rights.)“

Let me guess, Victoria Cobb is perfectly ok with bakeries refusing to make cakes for gay weddings.

When I was in college, my favorite restaurant just had a big sign behind the register that said “We reserve the right to deny service to assholes.”
