  • Are you referring to the 2022 bombing of a maternity hospital in Mariupol, the 2024 bombing of a maternity hospital in Kyiv, or the 2025 attacks against children’s hospitals in Kherson, Kharkiv, Kamianske, and Odessa? (These are just the results from the first page of search results.)

    Or are you referring to Russia literally stealing Ukrainian children from their families to try to erase their culture?

    I say those things to say this: We can all pretend to be stupid when it suits us. I know you weren’t thinking of Ukrainian children. It suits me right now to ensure those examples are fresh on your mind.

    The game of politics is still being played even if you chose to make moves that didn’t contribute strategically. The U.S. system is not democratic, and unless it is reformed, voters must compromise their morals to achieve some of their aims. It sucks, but it’s the reality.
    You made a call. You thought it was the most moral thing you could do at the time.

    Rather than attack your past decisions, or try to convince you to see things from my worldview — I want to ask if you could go back in time and explain the current state of the world to yourself do you think you would make the same voting decisions again?






  • Then don’t put yourself in a position to defend him. Silence is free.

    People already know that the justice system is skewed toward the wealthy.
    We know that if someone has enough money, they can rape others, then offer them a payoff and an NDA in exchange for silence. We know that people who cannot afford intensive legal representation tend to take NDAs, because often a legal accusation is dragged out to the point where it is financially ruinous. It’s common practice amongst some people accused of various misdeeds to counter-sue on trumped-up claims of libel (or whatever) that are designed to force the accuser into a dire financial situation, to get them to accept an NDA. (Along with all the other reasons someone chooses not to go after a powerful assailant - threats of legal harassment, threats of violence, having been killed and dropped into Lake Michigan or the Caribbean, having your tips ignored by law enforcement, being told by law enforcement that you deserved it, etc.)

    This is a circumstance where the devil does not need advocates. They have paid advocates who are entirely too good at their job, plus social constructs and a legal system that helps to enforce their hegemony.





  • I appreciate having two bathrooms. We can poop at the same time!

    Plus the bathroom by the bedrooms is the one that hides all our shame. The one near the living room is whimsical and slutty – the exact takeaway about us I want guests to have.
    (It’s got a lot of cartoon boobs and butts in there, some interracial sapphic mermaid art, a small painting done in the style of classic “ship art” of a penis breaching the waves like a whale. And of course the toilet has both Moby Dick and the 1970’s photo-illustrated version of “The Joy of Sex” for reading materials.)
