@SECRET_ASIAN_MAN That was a weird situation. Did you know her?
@Lulz4l1f3 Unfortunately, they'll probably just double down on God is punishing America for abortion, gay marriage, premarital sex, Godlessness, etc. It's their go-to explanation.

@Bix He's gonna need a cheaper brand of scotch.
@SECRET_ASIAN_MAN There's a piece from 2019, The Invisibility of Older Women, that might be what you are looking for.
It begins, "In Alfred Hitchcock’s 1938 film, The Lady Vanishes, a young woman on a train becomes disturbed by the sudden disappearance of a kindly older woman, a governess and music teacher."
I can post a gift link.
@SECRET_ASIAN_MAN Do you know approximately when it was published?
@Superstitionsee And there were witnesses.
@Boyceaz Maya Wiley came in third in the 2021 Democratic primary first round, after Eric Adams and Kathryn Garcia, and was eliminated from the final round along with Andrew Yang and Scott Stringer. In the final round, Adams received 42.9% and Garcia 42.2%.
In the general election, Adams received 66.99% to Curtis Sliwa's 27.76%. Sliwa is the guy who staged his own kidnapping.
@Boyceaz Because his opponent was Curtis Sliwa?
The U.S. Secret Service is investigating allegations that one of its agents sexually assaulted a female staff member of the office of Vice President Kamala Harris, the agency confirmed Wednesday.
The agent, who was a member of Harris’ protective detail, has been placed on administrative leave.

@MakerWerks @gshevlin Been a lot of that going around. Being wrong is almost a matter of faith in some circles.
@gshevlin It's a shame that we have elected officials who are that bigoted.
@TheLegend_AZ I hear he's holding out for Johnny Carson to be moderator.
