Do All these GOP female apologizers for abusive men wanna be men and this is the closest they can get to that? By attacking other females? Seriously folks. It is unnatural not to defend your own kind. It is abnormal and cold and uncaring and odd. What happens when their daughters are sexually abused or beaten? Will they all be good little Stepford Wives and defend the men who beat them? See what I mean? Weird. Odd. Bizarre. Strange. less

I expect he threatened her Doesn't mean he didn't. The doofus donjohn prez has multiples of women accusing him of sexually abusing them. He has contempt/disdain for all women. He is a world-class misogynist racist Fascist Russky lover. Nifty combination ain't it? So hold on tight. He's gonna triple down and quadruple down and quintuple down defending wifebeaters and sexual predators. Stay tuned. Watch the master in action! :( less

Turn over. Turn under. Turn back. Turn down. Turn into. Turn on. Turn off. Turn out. Turn the tables. Turn the tide. Wait for your turn. Do a good turn. Has the milk turned? The list of uses seems infinite. Was there ever such a useful word as turn? The chameleon of words? If so which, why and where can it be used?

Ever wonder how much you may be missing out on by eyes straight ahead? What's the worst thing that could happen if you were to stray one day?

It's not fun but it is necessary and I really must get as much of the research I've done over the last 5 weeks written up. I have this week off as it's half-term here and as I work full-time have a very demanding daughter with disabilities, do the course and have many pets as well as a house to run - half term is vital. After half-term we get into adding and editing - always a long process for me and the pressure becomes more and more intense until the assignment is done. I promise I will be back - I will miss you all and will think of you, composing questions in my head to ask you - but I will not be able to ask them :(Behave yourselves while I am away and I will catch you on the flipside of the assignment. xx less

One of Orwell’s most important messages in 1984 is that language is of central importance to human thought because it structures and limits the ideas
The aim of manipulative language, whether used consciously or unconsciously is often to narrow the range of thought – to control it in some way. In other words the language that is used and how it is used, undeniably has an impact, or seeks to have an impact on the thoughts of the recipient.
Manipulative language is a form of coercion. Definition: noun Definition: compulsion, pressure: browbeating, bullying, constraint, duress, force, intimidation, menace, menacing, persuasion, strong-arm tactic, threat, threatening,

Talk about frustration :P

If you keep replacing the materials and the people with more of the same you will keep getting the same result. Anyone with a brain would know that in advance before construction begins. Where are they? Why are they hiding? less
