No disagreement here 💯

Having personally survived 22 years of domestic violence and emotional abuse, watching the perpetrator age, it's truly impossible to tell where the abuse ends and the cognitive decline begins. They can look quite similar.

Music school, 1988. During private lessons (woodwinds). Prof had kids' alphabet book on credenza. I asked why. "So I can teach the pretty girls like you how to tongue properly." He did attempt to proceed. My unwillingness = lack of dedication to my craft. I was skipped over for several auditions.

This. And I think most people just aren't exposed to this level of PD to recognize the patterns for what they are. I do think that's partly what got us all here.

Yes. Same here. I mean they have to, don't they?

Fair. Then again, how would we know? 🙃 All I can say is that the lies about obvious things were shocking.

OK, but let's say they release them. Great! Then what? Do we really expect consequences?

Sorry, it's deliberate, not dementia. I spent 20 exhausting years with a narcissist. The lying, the gaslighting - all tracks. This is what they do. They literally don't care if you can prove them wrong.

wait, so now they're shipping American "Medicaid laborers" from urban areas to farmland?

This bill would kick millions off their health insurance, and thousands will even lose their lives - unless we stop it in its tracks.

Some Republicans are breaking ranks, showing it's not too late. Time to speak up!

Sure, I'll send you a DM. I hear you ❤️

can I DM you?

I found a really supportive online Jewish/LGBT group that meets once a month. If you want info feel free to DM me. They meet tomorrow. Others there have talked about the same thing - it's a good space to get support for that.
