I will repeat my description (from Smoke Em) of the despicable NHJ as a self indulgent professional race baiter. Not to mention that she is an attention whore. I don't trust the veracity or motives of anything she writes.

Whatever one could say of NHJ, I was impressed that her daughter had the awareness to understand that something was terribly wrong and the courage & persistence to self-advocate so forcefully at her age. Really not sure how much we can credit her mother or not, but she raised an impressive kid. Wishing the best to her, but this story could have had a much worse ending.

I think she has a case for emancipation

Maud Maron was on a bonus quickie of Getting Hammered this week with MKH. You guys should have her on, too!

Cool to mention Chad Gilbert. He screamed in legendary hardcore band Shai Hulud for a bit too. Dude was loved by everyone who knew him.

“Beloved Fif’ listener Book of Trees, a.k.a. Maya Sulkin”

Book of Trees is not Maya Sulkin.

Gah! Was misinformed.

I'm similarly triggered to rage whenever I read anything about NHJ. Her refusal to question the race essentialism behind her plan is top-level denial. But why should she? She's being paid to perform as a martyr. Yuck.

The NHJ thing is insane.

Holy shit… have we as a community hit that point of content that we can have an OTD in TFC History?!

I don’t support segments (and I think that is why so many detest Midterm Madness) but THAT could be interesting to have as a Paul Harvey. 😂❤️ *Only Commies hate Paul Harvey.

I was misinformed, and have deleted.

You had me very confused.

Maya is a gorgeous genius, and she had a banner week with her stories for TFP. I hope I'm still beloved.

Let it never be said I can't love multiple women.

I didn't think so. I though maybe I misread it.

It is a situation that requires people to wrest power from corrupt government and unions, but only people with kids care. Thus society falls apart because we don’t educate the next generation.
