It's such a painful choice. I can't take in more pets, but I can't stand to see one suffering.

The last true stray I adopted ended up giving me a litter of kittens before I could get her fixed, then ran away. Ever since all my pets (cats) have been from shelters.

To be fair I still feed opossums regardless.

The word you're looking for is 'apropos'.

So long as both sidesing brings in outrage clicks and views, they won't.

Pretending that the latest monstrous and insane thing out of Trump's hate hole is somehow breaking news is the same shit they've been playing since... forever.

Some of their own people (reporters) may get ground under the millstone, but that's a price they're willing to pay. Just the price of staying on top.

Not even the difficulty. Just the relentless pop-in of enemies. Endless and boring.

Sorrey I missed your question about her radicalization.

It stemmed from separation anxiety due to her mother working while she was young. Which metastasized into a hatred of women in the workforce. Ironic given how much she worked with men who viewed her as nothing more than a novelty, all while she crafted much of the modern GOP ethos.

I wasn't aware there was one about her!

Most of my information, outside of my baseline knowledge of her anti-ERA shenanigans, is from some recent Behind the Bastards episodes about her.

One of the greatest political operatives of the 20th century, in terms of how widespread her horrifying legacy is. She only cosplayed as a frumpy housewife all while trying to lock the US an eternal fictionalized version of the 1950s.

Phylis Schlafly, one of the main architects behind the modern religious right controlled GOP.
