Personally I had no idea she was married with children. Wasn't she just kicked out of a movie theater for being stoned and giving some staffer a hanny? Or is that some other republican trainwreck.

She's a 37 year old divorced grandmother.

You're essentially correct, there, but slightly off on a couple details. About a month before her divorce finalized, she was kicked out of a musical for vaping and being rowdy with her new boyfriend.

Rowdy is generous. She had her tits out around a bunch of minors.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

She was kicked out due to complaints about her vaping and being loud.

Everything else came out afterwards when they double checked the tapes.

and being rowdy with her new boyfriend.

Is that what we're calling it these days?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 8 months ago (1 children)

She split with her husband, ie the guy who exposed himself to her in a bowling alley when she was a minor.

Also the guy she fucked around with is a registered Democrat who owns a bar that does drag shows.

I'm not making any of this up

She panicked and broke up with him and claimed she didn't know. What a coward.

She's actually a grandmother. I'm not joking.

Generation times can be very short when mental illness and/or heavy drug use are in play.

I had a cousin who was a grandfather at 32 and great grandfather at 46.

Absolutely, you’re right. I work in child protection and it’s honestly pretty common to see grandparents in their thirties. I’m yet to see one younger than exactly 30 though, but I’m sure they’re out there. There’s always a heavy mix of domestic violence, substance abuse, sexual abuse, and sometimes mental health issues at play as well.

I met one who was just barely 30 once when I was over in England and it was not a fun story.

She had her daughter at 16 after being high on heroine. She had no idea who the father was. Her daughter had a baby girl after being raped by a cousin at 11.

She was a grandmother at 27.

Ah look to be fair, that short generation Al thing has only become unusual in broader western society in the last hundred years or even less.

Yeah, you got it, that was her
