    And Barbara Boxer before her. It’s just an old lady in politics thing. Men in politics generally have learned that yelling at children is bad. Notallwomenbutalwaysawoman

      I think it has to do with how a lot of women in politics especially those who got in before the turn of the millennium have this need to prove themselves, which just kinda manifests into being the biggest assholes. A good example is how Wako was caused largely by some cunt being stupid and wanting to be seen as tough on crime, no I’m not gonna look up her name she isn’t worth my time I will remember her fuck ups regardless. Damnatio memoriae is perfectly valid in my opinion.

          In my defense I’ve read way too much shit that uses K instead of a hard C that my brain just forgets hard C is a thing. Also why do we even have a hard C let’s just use Ks instead.

            I’ll go one step further. Why have Cs at all. Hard Cs can be Ks, and soft Cs can be Ss. And while we’re at it, Ph can get the fuck out too.

            I’ve said as much to my wife, who reminded me my name has both a C and a Ph.
