“And then the pilgrims mercifully massacered the Covfefe tribe and all of their illegal immigrant muslim bad hombres. After which George Washington high fived Abraham Lincoln and won the civil war which successfully kicked all of the fake news out of the United States forever and ever. Something something emails. The…

I’m afraid there will be such a fever pitch about Trump and Russia in the media for so long that by the time this investigation is concluded and the shit hits the fan, most of the public will be sick of it. I’m already kind of sick of it. I want both him and these stories to go away forever.

Oh, and I said this in another spot, but trust that Justine would be livid about the difference in narratives about a blonde white lady victim vs. a black man victim. If she had more melanin, I reckon she’d be getting called an immigrant in the first line of most of these stories.

“spontaneously grow a conscience from nothing”

I know this is not SNS but since I’m in Europe I always miss those and I got really great news today that I want to share! I work in academia and recently I’ve really been wanting to get into research journalism, but it’s not so easy to break into the good publications (‘duh’ - Every Writer Ever). Well, last week I…

Leverage? He withholds affection from his kids. They will chase him for the rest of his life and be fucked up for the rest of theirs if they don’t figure out it’s not about their deficits. It’s about his. Tale as old as time my friend. Make some friends who are children of alcoholics and you will see this dynamic play…

Christ how could this end any other way than all the motherfuckers in the WH being dragged kicking and screaming to testify

The only thing he still has that the Republicans want is the ability to pack the Supreme Court with forced-birthing frozen-trucker justices. He has that ability until 2018. I think the Republicans will try to keep him around as long as possible for that reason alone.

A piece of Russian oil money when those sanctions get lifted, should he survive all 4 years. that’s been my theory for a while. Republicans are fueled by self-wealth primarily and i think there’s been so many “soon-to-be’s” and “I.O.U.’s” handed out that that’s the real reason why anyone in that party so vehemently…

He’s totally going to throw him under the bus.

You know what, as far as 2017 plot twists go, I am rather enjoying this one. Like, if this turns into Jr.’s redemption arc, I would be cool with it.

Or, he might be a selfish asshole with zero concern for the people of his state, who paid for those sweet perks.

I also feel like I don’t have time to process this. The bar exam is in less than a month and I feel like my head needs to be in that game, but I just stare at my books and notes and am not absorbing anything. I work 8-5, try to study from 6-midnight, and get up and do it all again the next day. I keep trying to…

I keep trying to remember that I would never be upset if a friend needed me, even at 2am or every single day for that matter. But it’s hard to apply that same thinking to yourself. Same as when I blame myself for the whole thing. I would never say that to a friend, but I feel like I should have known better, you…

I was raped my freshman year of college. I had the same concerns about burdening people, along with all the other emotions. During one of my crying sessions, when I didn’t realize what I was saying, I said that to someone. She let me know that everyone who loved me wanted me to do whatever I needed. She also let…

Does anyone have any advice for how to stop feeling like you’ve burdened the people you love after experiencing sexual assault? I can’t be the only one who feels this way. It’s been a week since it happened, and I feel like I’ve just talked myself in circles, bothering everyone around me. I’ve got an appointment…

I read an interview with Wes Craven where he was quite bitter about the Poltergeist clawing the face off in the bathroom mirror scene.

Sounds like it should have been an episode of HBO’s The Hitchhiker

Dragonslayer is also one of the most overtly subversive fantasy movies ever made. The king is using the dragon to consolidate his corrupt regime, religion is useless, and the hero is sort of useless (it’s his love interest, who spends most of the movie disguised as a boy, who has all the brains and courage). It was…

Maybe he thinks the blood has “bad germs”?
