Mine has after seeing her face and believing the fbi will cover this up. Along with his constant threats of taking Greenland (fuck Stephen Miller ). I really could use Xanax right now.

Then the murder in Minneapolis made it soar even higher until my mental health suddenly did a barrel roll and then nosedived toward the ground. Fortunately I was able to regain control of the craft before it crashed and burned.

Living in America these days is exhausting. This is how I feel right now:

All above. Catching a bit of it now so I think I will stop here. There are days when I just can't shut up. KWIM?

And his tone of voice. Chilling.

He checks all the boxes. I worry for his wife.


So rumor has it, immediately after the shooting, he went home (not to the hospital), and started packing, and within an hour or so, a line of SUVs showed up and he threw a bunch of boxes into them, then got in his own truck and was escorted away, and no one has seen him or his wife ever since. They're probably in a luxury bungalo at Mar a Lago right now.

and broken ribs. Three days after giving birth.



Too many of us have been through it. We know what we see when we see it.

I hope you are safe now.

response to my post.

I missed some I am certain but I love and appreciate you all.

It feels like a blanket here.

Yes, we do.

Who hasn't heard it?

I am angry with those who have, even as I have never been called that. It is shocking when I hear of it and I don't ever want it to become normal. I stand with my sisters and brothers. Women deserve better and men should be held accountable for violent language,

I've heard it from other sources too, though. Usually men who feel threatened by a strong woman.

So long ago, but hearing his voice on his own phone. Ugh

when they realize that a woman is stronger than he is.

I'm so sorry for what you went through. I know that doesn't help anything, but I'm truly sorry.

the is a common phrase spoken by weak men, who are grossly insecure, with small dicks, carrying massive firepower and now, with the Backing of the Trump/Republican CABAL, they all are free to act out in anyway they wish.

I think they should be rounded up, with all their battle garb and assault weapons, and parachuted into a war zone, in a foreign country, and we can watch them all hide and cry when confronted by REAL men, who shoot back........

I have never in my 84 years been subjected to that sort of treatment.
My heart breaks for those of you who have.
I would love to hug you all and take away all that hurt.

thank you so much.

and told everyone not to vote for him.

was when I smashed the toes of a pervert with my combat boot

yes indeed

Yes indeed. Thank you.

Which reminds me, I need to check if he's dead yet

"Fucking Bitch." - The cost of telling a dangerous man you're not afraid

Thanks for sharing.

I passed it along.

Excerpt:

And that speed is its own kind of confession. A woman is dead, and the machinery is already humming, gears grinding, scripts sliding into place, moving with the well-rehearsed urgency of a system that knows exactly how to shield a man with power while quietly laying the weight of it all back onto the woman he killed. It’s a reflex so old and so deeply trained into our politics you can almost hear it click into gear — close ranks, lock arms, protect the man, and if there’s any blame left over, make sure it lands on her.

We’ve seen it in Donald Trump, in the way he talks about women as if they’re props in his personal pageant, things to be graded, mocked, and publicly humiliated. Piggy. Dog. Stupid. Ugly. He bragged about grabbing women by the pussy and was rewarded with the highest office in the land. That kind of language doesn’t just vanish into the air. It settles into the soil. It seeps into the seams of culture. It teaches people, quietly and relentlessly, what they’re allowed to get away with.

When leaders model contempt for women, when they make cruelty look like confidence and dominance look like strength, it doesn’t stay confined to podiums and cable news. It leaks outward, into parking lots and traffic stops and ordinary moments where someone with a weapon decides a woman has crossed an invisible line simply by not shrinking.

Renee Good tried to live. She tried to speak. She tried to calm a situation that never should’ve existed in the first place. She offered the only things she had left in that moment — her voice, her steadiness, her refusal to let fear be the last word. And for that, she was killed, then blamed, then pressed into a story that made her death easier for powerful people to swallow, as if a woman’s life could be wrapped in official language and made to disappear.

A clarion voice.

the c-word (which, as I have posted previously, I proudly claim, knowing the origin) but physical violence never followed. For some reason, those trying to frighten and insult me have tended to be intimidated. The times someone did try, "you fucking bitch" was not part of it.

However, from many years of DV work, I know all too well that far too many other women have not been so fotunate.

I either feared for my physical safety or my career was sabotaged.

Men have no idea how dangerous it is to simply allow a man to experience his insecurities.

You're having an ordinary day, then *BAM* ... you're dead within milliseconds.

Something everybody fears in the back of their minds. But females, especially.

Thanks, MG.

drove up on the other side. I looking at the gas meter
and the guy who was on the other side said to me,
"You're the reason the world is the way it is".
I looked behind me. Was he talking to me?
I turned back and said, "Who me"?
There has been worse, much worse.
But why the blanket hatred from men?

He was speaking from a comfortable space.
I stayed...until he drove off, first.

This deadly incident….murder….caused by that brutal ICE agent and all the turmoil and chaos that followed felt like it blew me wide open. It brought back old feelings of terror and dread, of desperation . Those feelings and tears are just below the surface, as real as ever, .even after decades.

I’m sending a hug to anyone here that needs one.

else that's what I am. I just laugh it off, I have my own words for him! No one has ever hit me, thank goodness.

The old wounds may have scabbed over, but this has broken many of them back open. Sending hugs to each of you.

I was physically restrained and forced to spend my wedding night on the floor while he slept in the bed above me.

Every day after that was spent enduring physical and emotional abuse and planning my escape. If I had not been financially able I don't know if I would have survived.

said those words. She said kind words to him. He killed her and then called her a fucking bitch.

On the shooting. His 1st shot was not lethal, but his 2nd and 3rd were in the face, as she continued to watch him.

having money is key to surviving, whether you work or friends help you.

And this guy Jonathan Ross - he is not just one ICE agent in Minnesota, he is everywhere in this country.

Within moments after killing her, it was obvious he was livid and out for revenge. If he had been trained properly (or removed from the program for failing to be trained) he would know how to control his anger and his response to the situation. Sadly for Renee Good, he reacted in rage and shot her point blank and ended her life in an instant. He reacted in anger and on impulse shot her dead.

That should throw cold fear into the heart of all of us. Not just women, people of color or those who may be protesting (legally or within our constitutional rights). ANYONE who gets within range of monsters like the ICE agent who killed Renee should be forewarned that they could be the next national headline. It is meant to have a chilling effect on those of us who protest or speak up about what is going on.

If Congress and others with the power to investigate this situation do not act immediately, we are done as the nation we thought we were. Since Trump retook office last year, they have been on a quest to destroy the USA as we know it. They have moved swiftly and relentlessly to overwhelm us with fear, strongman tactics and rhetoric. Now they are using outright murder to get their point across. If this does not push Congress into action, I do not know what will.

An investigation! Congressional!
