My mom is in politics and her campaign manager always advised her to leave my step-dada as out of view as possible. Apparently there are studies that show that men in power who have a wife close by them physically seem more trust-worthy and full of values, etc but women in power who have a husband close-by seem weak…

I think she looks very happy and pretty. There are plenty of negative things to say about her family but this pic or her choice of expensive coat aren’t what I care about (I hated when Hillary and Michelle got criticized for the same stuff)

I usually refrain from commenting about Melania but I thought her smile looked sincere in this photo. Not forced. Not smug. I vote for it being a Smile of Freedom.

Somewhere, Lindsey Graham is passing out thinking of what could have been, had he made just a few different choices.

Question: is it possible millennial women are also more sensitive to the accusations about how lazy and entitled we supposedly are? Or is it just me? I’m an old millennial, so I think I’m not entirely the group intended in these millennial studies (I’m 35. Most stuff about millenials seems to be all about how terrible…

That was taped days ago, and children are always dying.

That’s not really fair. As goddamn stupid as this is, it was taped before Manchester. It’s not like Katy interrupted a live broadcast of the events last night to be all “but wait, my dancers.”

After reading that account, Katy sounds pretty reasonable to me. But anything in Taylor’s orbit reeks of fakery in my eyes, so...

Really? Reading this put me firmly on Katy’s side.It reads like Taylor treats her backup dancers like props and Katy treated them like people.

But that’s how employment works. There’s no guarantee that your employee will stick around forever, and I would guess that in the entertainment/dance world, you come to expect that people leave productions for other jobs.

Honestly, his wife knew his occupation. She stayed there, bore 5 children, and apparently didn’t object. This is not ‘sport’. Sport is volleyball, baseball. softball. golf, running, handball, swimming, like that. It reminds me of Oscar Wilde’s description of fox hunting - ‘the unspeakable in pursuit of the inedible.’

Should we feel sorry for people who do reprehensible things just because they have children? Weird logic.

That’s exactly how I feel when a dad get convicted of rape and has to go to jail. No, wait, that’s the opposite of how I feel.

This response is the best response.

You idiot. Fuck him, fuck his wife, and fuck their legacy. Maybe their children will grow up without their parents’ inherent cruelty and sociopathy and will choose a lifestyle that doesn’t involve poaching animals. We can hope. If not? Fuck them, too.

And you’re using the word “sport” loosely. Using dogs to round up animals to drive them towards hunters armed with guns doesn’t seem like much of a sport.

I have little sympathy for a man who spent his life killing animals for sport with no intention of using them for food or resources.

I’m only sad that the elephant that killed him died.

Good.

Thank you. It's a terrific fucking movie...
