Yes, but people willing to do whatever it takes to be in a position to pursue that agenda are a dime a dozen. So this Kavanaugh at all costs is about different things.
1.) Timing. Nominating somebody different would probably push confirmation past the election. And that is a non-starter both because of the chance that the Senate could change over to Democratic control, which WOULD make it more difficult to put an extreme conservative like this on the court, and because putting a strongly pro-life justice on the court is an accomplishment that they can give to socially conservative voters. After all, there are plenty of people that voted for Trump just because of supreme court nominations.
2.) Giving up on Kavanaugh would be loosing. The Orange one was elected at least partly because he and his voters view the world as a zero-sum game. EVERYTHING is about winners and losers, so losing must be avoided at all costs. Even when that means putting serial abusers into the White House and Supreme Court.
I think that for some, it’s sort of “I got over it, you should too…” That slots in well with “I had to walk up hill in the snow to get to school,” and “We never wore helmets on our bikes or seatbelts in the car, and we turned out OK.” After all, if they’re working at Fox, they had to deal with Roger Ailes, so they’re self-selected for an ability to put up with sexual harrasment.
Totally locust.
Also, I blame society.
As a certified clinical hypnotherapist,
Is Donnie Darko accurate?
I’ve never seen Donnie Darko, but from my reading of the film’s synopsis on Wikipedia just now, I’d be pretty surprised if it were accurate. If hypnotherapy was portrayed as arcane, dark, or threatening, then no, not accurate.
Okay, I watched the clip, and oh hell no, ha ha! It would take too long to go over all the inaccuracies of that clip, but the short version is that there was nothing right about it at all, from her manner and their rapport (or rather the lack thereof), to the types of questions she asked, to the way she brought him out of “hypnosis”… all total nonsense. Have you ever had a massage from a really good massage therapist, who is really paying close attention to all the elements of your experience so that they can be sure they are doing everything possible do to help you, and making sure that you are mentally, physically, and emotionally comfortable so that you receive the most benefit from the treatment? A hypnotherapy session with a good practitioner would be more like that. The most common reaction I have when I bring someone out of hypnosis is a stretch and a smile, and fairly often a comment about wishing they could’ve stayed in that space longer. Of course at times there can be a powerful emotional release, which may be less comfortable, but in safety and with worthwhile benefits. Thanks for asking!
