I saw it the second to last day and murder nearly became my hobby from the crowding.

‘Look here, young man, you’re trying to anticipate what I’m going to say, and you haven’t the brains enough to do it.

I loved this exhibit. It was a really neat experience to both take the time to really appreciate the detail and focus on my own, and have a few conversations with other people about what we thought the scenario was. I don’t know if I’ve quietly muttered “wow” under my breath so often in a museum before.

“Look here, young man, you’re trying to anticipate what I’m going to say, and you haven’t the brains enough to do it.” 

Puuuurrfect.

doubt it, since 27 isn’t a child

Note that there are multiple US states where there is no minimum age for marriage. As in, technically you could marry a toddler. As long as the parents give their consent. A rapist can marry his pregnant young teenage victim, if the parents consent.

Said it before but setting the age of consent...is just an “Open Season Sign”

Or raise your hand if you thought you were one of those mature girls when you were 15 and would flirt with your teacher and relish in the attention he gave you. But now looking back realize he should have shut that shit down.

I think 16 is a reasonable age of consent; to me, the problem is more about huge age differences, i.e. one of the parties clearly being an adult. A 15-year-old and a 17-year-old dating? I could justify looking the other way. (I once was that 15-year-old, and we were very responsible about it). 16 and 18, even 16 and…

Raise your hand if you were a 15 year old girl who was constantly pestered by older men. The fathers of the kids you babysat for pouring you a drink. Your friends’ fathers staring at your tits or walking in on you in the shower. Your male teachers dropping hints. Strangers pulling over as you walked home from school.

“though there was some dispute over whether 13 or 15 should be the official age.”

I too am here for it! The tell-alls that come out of all this are going to be delicious.

Let him. Give him more rope to hang himself.

My favorite part of this story is Trump going behind their backs and having Kelly try to force them out.

This reminds me that during the weekend’s wind storm in DC lightweight objects had to be secured outside. Sources suggest Jared got monster rope burns and chapping.

Unfortunately for Jared, Donald is impervious to the time honored Kushner tradition of sending a hooker to your adversary and taping the proceedings for blackmail purposes.

It just feels like... he’s sabotaging himself. He always does; he’s a fuck-up. He’s proven he can attract attention to himself, he’s proven that he can manipulate the clueless and the hateful. He’s also proven that he can be used as a somewhat effective tool by venal power-brokers with even a slightly higher IQ than…

How do you know that Trump will lose in 2020?

Wait, are they going to get kicked out of the White House before anyone figures out what the fuck they actually do at said White House (see also Manigault-Stallworth, Omarosa)?
