Just Another Day Under the Trump Regime

By Jami Ingledue — BEHIND DOMESTIC LINES

Please note that this article discusses topics in the current news relating to the Supreme Court confirmation and the sexual assault accusations, which may upset some people.

It is rainy and cold. A teacher workday means no school. I want to listen to NPR but I don’t want my 6-year-old to hear about constitutional crises and possible gang rapes. We are talking about gang rapes in a supreme court confirmation. This should be the most boring thing in the world. Instead I can’t even expose my first grader to it.

I’m not personally a sexual assault survivor. But even I’ve been paralyzed the last few days. Unable to write, unable to do much that is useful. I know that’s not objectively true. We had a postcard party for a great female mom candidate. I’m writing fucking postcards while Rome burns. But it’s better than nothing I guess. I support Lois Valencki because she cares about strong public schools. Don’t be a fucking idiot, can’t you see what’s happening, for the love of god DON’T LET THIS SHIT SHOW CONTINUE. Your neighbor, Jami.

I don’t love Michael Avenatti but I’m kind of relieved that someone is willing to get down in the mud and fight dirty with these soulless assholes. Using their own sensationalist techniques. I guess news breaks first on Twitter now…
