Maybe it’s bad to put men who glory in atrocities in charge.

The DOJ released evidence, which the FBI deemed credible, that the President of the United States sexually and physically assaulted a 13 year old girl AND she was afraid to talk about it because Trump would kill herβ€”and it’s somehow not the biggest scandal in American history?

That does not make up for failing to put it in the text of the article. It’s basic due diligence.
My point still stands.

Among its many magical uses, the hag stone is known for protecting homes from evil spirits, pigs from swine-fever, milk from turning sour, and sailors from witches clinging to their ships.

I appreciate their work here but this specific article falls short in that it lacks very basic but essential informationβ€” when did she come forward?!
It’s so much we need to know without something essential we must know.

I bet they were considerably more careful after that. You never know who’s ready to pop off if you talk shit about their mama! πŸ˜†

My sister is fluent enough in another language to have once caught women speaking that tongue talking shit about my mother ( She’s very kind but very regal. It triggers people.) and go off on them in their own language.
Kind of an amazing flex, TBQH.

This was already exemplified by the approach white men have long taken to race and gender. When β€œothers” don’t automatically view them as superior and rush to obey them, they just think we’re glitching. Other cultures? Glitches. Feminism? Glitch. Womanism? Glitch.
Anything not a mirror? Glitch.
