It might be hard to find a moral person in a den of inequity
“Go to church. Find Jesus. Why is everyone so horny around here?”
Boebert following the resignations of Democrat Eric Swalwell and Republican Congressman Tony Gonzales. Apparently Swalwell's sexual misconduct was extremely well known in Congress. Gonzales' staffer whom he had an affair with committed suicide by self immolation.
These are icky people.
Of course Boebert had her own moment in the dimly lit theatre when she was caught on video getting felt up by a date after her divorce.
None of which causes me to post this thread. Rather, it's the resignation of Lori Chavez-DeRemer who was accused of abusing her power. She's also accused of having an affair with one of the members of her security detail, and her husband, Shawn DeRemer, an anesthesiologist, was barred from the department’s headquarters after allegations by at least two female staff members that he had sexually assaulted them.
This, of course, follows the resignation of Kristi Noem who was allegedly having an affair with Corey Lewandowski, although she denies it. Indeed, everything listed here in regard to Noem and DeRemer is denied. Noem, we'll recall, suffered the revelation that her husband was posting photographs of himself with huge fake boobs.
So, in answer to Bobo's question, maybe it isn't that everyone in D.C. is inordinately horny, but rather that when you elect a man to lead them all who has publicly been sexually immoral you can't really expect everyone else to be.
Have any of these people behaved any worse than Donald Trump? Well, maybe, but it's not like they're all in the clean living club had a minor trip.
And how about those Epstein files?
Dimmitude.
There is apparently an HBO series called Euphoria. I had never heard of it until this week when it hit the news as Sydney Sweeney appears topless in it, and apparently appears in dicey scenes in general as an OnlyFans, um, model?
Sweeney is an actress who must be famous for something acting related, but I don't know what it is. I've never seen her in a movie, and I'm not going to watch Euphoria because 1) it doesn't sound interesting and 2) it sounds like it's outright pornography.
I've never labeled the phenomenon, I probably should and maybe I will with this thread, but the appearance in the nude of one good looking woman undoes the work of a thousand hard working talented women. I.e., you can have 1,000 Marie Curie's and 1 Sydney Sweeney is all it takes to set the progress of women back fifty years.* It's probably has its roots in human genetics, but it's a real phenomenon. Brilliant women can make all sorts of progress in sciences, art, literature, and along comes one topless tart and the meter is set back decades.
Sweeney was quoted as saying something like when she does this stuff, and the most recent topless scenes are apparently not the only sexually explicit ones in the show, she doesn't see it as herself, but has an out of body type experience. One quote also says the most recent one, which is supposed to be an OnlyFans topless ice cream photo, isn't erotic. Well, horseshit. Playing a pornographic model in the nude is pornographic.
I feel bad for Sweeney as I suspect she has some actual talent, but I don't know that. She's not an actress on my radar obviously. She really came to public attention most recently for her jeans ads, in which she's used as cheesecake. I guess she appeared as a female boxer (a sport I really don't think women should be in, given my archaic views) and got high marks on Rotten Potatoes. She changed her appearance enormously, based on the trailer, for that role, which takes some guts. It didn't seem to be widely watched, however, which is too bad as maybe it could have broken her out of the "let's watch Sweeney's boobs" roles that she seems to be taking to get by now.
The relationship between men and women, and children.
I saw a couple of items on Twitter that dimly sort of related to topics here, one being a quote, and another a reply to the quote.
Footnotes:
*We will call it the Sydney Sweeney Effect and put it in our rules of human behavior when we get a chance. We probably ought to name another one the Playboy Effect, which is obviously related to it, to what we earlier noted:
