Can’t unsee, and now I’m hungry, too.

That and they were receiving behavioral treatment, which the mother waves away as a possible reason for their improvement. Like, behavioral therapy improving behavior? Nonsense! It must be the bleach!

I believe he’s working hard over at https://deadsplinter.com/ (SplinterRIP, I think).

I noticed this trend a while back, and occasionally mention it here or there. It’s terribly ironic because one of the things right-wingers love to accuse the left of is post-modern thinking (specifically in the form of “moral relativism” - because they’re simple-minded and don’t understand the totality of what…

Oh, it’s not just depressing now. It’s a thoroughly depressing movie in general (I saw it years ago).

Objectively it sounds insane, but he doesn’t actually believe that. He’s just talking shit because he’s out of the greys and can get away with it. What’s insane is people agreeing with that comment. You don’t like Bernie? Fine, whatever. You think that wanting to help people and wanting the frontrunner to help people…

Biden will be like “Look, you wanna take this outside?”

Exactly. The right has much lower standards than we do.

When I saw his post yesterday, my initial reaction was “Sure, if you don’t know the definition of those words (or you’re just being a disingenuous shit-stirrer), why the fuck not?”. Rather than replying, I left it alone, hoping that other people would call him out. Checking back this morning, I note that he’s…

That and even if he wasn’t his dad’s lawyers would shut that shit down in a hot second.

Even “verbal assault” doesn’t capture it, though. This is a form of psychological abuse. “Violation” might be a better term for what you’re thinking of, as it’s a violation of her person, her rights to privacy and autonomy. 

Classic, right-wing black and white thinking. Two things can’t be true at once! No shades of grey, no nuance whatsoever!

No, as “assault” implies physical contact. I would be comfortable calling it a form of psychological abuse, however.

I got married on Leap Day, unfortunately. By the time our first anniversary came around it was over, and I was in a seriously bad way from all the shit that happened in the interim. Now every four years I get to remember how my life went to shit starting that cursed day. Doesn’t help that some of the most important…

I’ve seen that bug on and of over the years I’ve used kinja.

He kind of already is? Mentally, I mean.
