Trying very hard to remember this is for sale, not for keepsies. Bookselling is a tough gig, esp when you have copies like this.

Winner of tonight’s Grifter Mean Girl Award at #SOTU goes to Payton Mcnabb, who is such a bad sport she blamed another girl for the end of her HIGH SCHOOL “volleyball career” and got the fascists to help her blame it on trans participation in said sport. I hope she gets brainwashed by libs at uni.

“Confession” If for a day joy masters me, Think not my wounds are healed; Far deeper than the scars you see, I keep the roots concealed. They shall bear blossoms with the fall; I have their word for this, Who tend my roots with rains of gall, And suns of prejudice.”

a man who gets an email like this from his own mother should be legally required to reveal it to every woman he ever meets ever ever
The following is the text of the email that Penelope Hegseth sent to her son, Pete Hegseth, on April 30, 2018, as he was in the middle of divorcing his wife, Samantha. One sentence was redacted by The New York Times for privacy reasons.Son,
I have tried to keep quiet about your character and behavior, but after listening to the way you made Samantha feel today, I cannot stay silent. And as a woman and your mother I feel I must speak out..
You are an abuser of women — that is the ugly truth and I have no respect for any man that belittles, lies, cheats, sleeps around, and uses women for his own power and ego. You are that man (and have been for years) and as your mother, it pains me and embarrasses me to say that, but it is the sad, sad truth.
I am not a saint, far from it.. so don't throw that in my face, but your abuse over the years to women (dishonesty, sleeping around, betrayal, debasing, belittling) needs to be called out.Sam is a good mother and a good person (under the circumstances that you created) and I know deep down you know that. For you to try to label her as
"unstable" for your own advantage is despicable and abusive. Is there any sense of decency left in you? She did not ask for or deserve any of what has come to her by your hand. Neither did Meredith.
I know you think this is one big competition and that we have taken her side... bunk... we are on the side of good and that is not you. (Go ahead and call me self-righteous, I dont' care)
Don't you dare run to her and cry foul that we shared with us... that's what babies do. It's time for someone (I wish it was a strong man) to stand up to your abusive behavior and call it out, especially against womenWe still love you, but we are broken by your behavior and lack of character. I don't want to write emails like this and never thought I would. If it damages our relationship further, then so be it, but at least I have said my piece. [Redacted]
And yes, we are praying for you (and you don't deserve to know how we are praying, so skip the snarky reply)
I don't want an answer to this... I don't want to debate with you. You twist and abuse everything I say anyway. But...
On behalf of all the women (and I know it's many) you have abused in some way, I say... get some help and take an honest look at yourself...
Mom

Did your partner drag you out of Target because you were too busy singing and dancing along with the Wicked soundtrack playing over the loudspeaker while holiday shopping, or are you a normal person? Asking for a friend.

Dylan said the answer is blowin in the wind, and I always thought that approach was a bit too manic-pixie-dream-girl to hold water for anything other than casual philosophizing and back porch whimsy, but as a campaign strategy America seems pretty into it.
