I was literally about to respond that my husband and our two kitties are pretty awesome

I would try to walk. That would instantly make our one cat sprint to my feet to get directly under and infront of them.

For the other cat saying “soft food” would work. She’ll come screaming and expect to be served. Lord help me if I don’t have food on me though.

I just don’t drink alcohol in the first place (and also don’t get the hype, lol), but I can see how it makes more sense at a friends house.

Sounds awesome!

Yeah, that I understand more. At least for people who are more extroverted than I am, lol. But being in a setting in which you can see and hear people while not needing to pay insane prices sounds way more reasonable.

Partying. The whole idea of dressing up to leave one’s home after dark to visit a dimly lit, overly crowded place with overpriced drinks and snacks and music so loud you can’t hear yourself think.

Seems entirely unnecessary. I feel like social connection is so much easier when you can see and hear each other. Being able to get enough sleep and not needing to pay through the nose for 5 peanuts is also nice.

That’s clearly not possible, because although unisex toilets have functioned just fine for forever some TERF’s with a lot of money behind them have decided that the moment a man enters a bathroom a woman could also be in the poor damsel’s are in distress and faint due to shock or something.

Last good new (to me) music I found was by going to music festivals and by YouTube randomly recommending something to me I had never heard of before.

More generally speaking: Of course support for people calling themselves victims is important. If they got victimized the reason is obvious. If they are only claiming to be victimized there is probably still something wrong and they likely need support regardless. Innocent until proven guilty can very much go hand in hand with supporting the (presumed) victims.

In this particular case though I’m suspecting the best support might be some witness protection program combined with mental health support. I’m personally of the opinion that these women continue to be in danger from their abusers.

Saw the headline, saw the picture. Thought “well, he sure looks like the shoe would fit…” felt a bit guilty. Came to look at the comments. Lol.

Innocent until proven guilty (I say that as a woman AND a survivor of SA).

Then again he was proven guilty in other cases. Seeing as those weren’t enough to remove him from power permanently I am not sure what this would do. If I had to bet on if he assaulted minors I’d go for heck yes. I’d bet nearly everything I have on that. So I’d be a pretty bad jury member of this case ;) anyway: the more evidence there is, the harder it is to ignore. Victim statements are pretty good evidence, but more is better.

Lol, I’m not from the US. Just following US politics closely and doing what I can from a distance.

But yeah, US „left“ is more right than most country’s “right“. But nearly all of Europe is going through a political right-shift too, so who knows how long that’ll last.
