My Sexual Assault Survivor Spidey Senses Are Tingling Like Crazy: What The GOP Is Doing To America Is Exactly Like A Sexual Assault
No one really “recovers” from being sexually assaulted. You can live with it, of course. You can make a kind of uneasy peace with it. But you can never accept that it happened to you. The disease that comes with being sexually assaulted is believing that you deserved it. That’s what keeps you silent. In…

Donald Trump Has NEVER Been The Legitimate POTUS; Everything Needs To Flow From That Fact
If I steal your car then – just to be an even bigger asshole – sit outside your house at four in the morning, the expensive stereo cranked up high, pounding the horn, it doesn’t make me the car’s owner. I can take the registration from the glove compartment and cross out your name (with…

Dear News Media: Repeat After Me — “Both Sides Don’t Do It, Both Sides Don’t Do It, BOTH SIDES DON’T DO IT!!!”
Maybe our news media’s problem is one of projection. They can’t walk & chew gum at the same time so they assume Democrats can’t and citizens can’t. But, thing is, anyone who isn’t a journalist CAN do two things at once. Some of us can even hold two conflicting thoughts in our heads without our…

Living Inside A False Narrative Is Stupid… So Why Do We Persist In Doing It?
A woman who doesn’t know the man she loves is cheating on her lives inside a false narrative — that her relationship is on solid ground. A man unaware that a tumor is metastasizing inside of him is living a false narrative that he’s healthy and not doomed. As they slept in their beds at…

There’s A Reason We All Feel “Under Assault” In Trump World — It’s Cos We Are
I was in therapy a bit before Donald Trump stole the presidency. I was deep in my own depression then — headed toward self-destruction. My emotional radar was tweaked especially high. So many things triggered me. Election Night 2016 is its own “Day that will live in infamy”. I suspect I’m not alone in feeling…

HELP! We’re Trapped In A False Narrative & Can’t Get Out!
The most painful part of listening to or watching the news channels these days is the constant barrage of false narratives. The biggest false narrative of all, of course, is that Donald Trump got elected. He may have been given the victory but he lost the popular vote by over 3 million votes (it would…

Dear MSM: You Screwed Up Reporting Trump-Russia. OWN IT!
A very real day of reckoning is coming for America’s Main Stream News Media: They helped perpetuate the False Narrative that nearly destroyed our Democracy. How many kazillion times has a TV News Talking Heads round table collectively nodded, “Yeah – THAT’S why!” when one of them explained away Trump by saying “Well, the American…
