this did me a memory of an article from 2016 that made me lmao the grim lmaos of portending doom when it came out, and now it gives me fresh retrospective lols today


https://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/16/magazine/hillary-clinton-campaign-final-weeks.html

Hillary Clinton in that Failing NYT article posted:

Clinton envisions a model more suited to her skills and comforts. It also could portend a very different style of president — without the sweeping themes of Barack Obama, the moral certainty of George W. Bush or the explanatory clarity of Bill Clinton. Can Hillary Clinton do a better job inspiring people from the White House than she has from the campaign stage? Would it become easier or harder to do without Trump around to embody everything she has ever opposed and scare the daylights out of her base? “Don’t blow this” is what Clinton hears most often these days, she told me, or variations thereof. As it has turned out, Clinton, who began her campaign intent on breaking the last barrier — the glass ceiling — has found her most compelling rationale in her own role as a barrier, a bulwark against the impossible alternative. As I was leaving our interview, she smiled, looked me in the eyes and left me with a casual reminder. “As I’ve told people,” she said, “I’m the last thing standing between you and the apocalypse.”

my understanding was that the biggest barrier was their day jobs between all of them, complicated by tariq going through a depressive episode or something who was doing the editing or mixing some such

The recent ones where he creeped out women faded from public view after his public statement that he didn't realize he was being a creep and halfheartedly apologized for it while being clearly unaware of why it upset them.

The woman he allegedly raped has changed her story bit by bit over time (no way to know whether it's because that's how memory is or because she made it up) and there's so little factual information available (at least to my knowledge, correct me if this isn't the case), that it's probably impossible to determine whether she drank too much and he put her in bed to sleep it off or he drugged her and raped her. Skeptics and science fans write her off because she's into alternative medicine, crystal healing, and other woo, but that's completely irrelevant and entirely a condemnation of those movements and how terrible they are. AFAIK, the only investigation being done is by the network and production company that makes tens of millions of dollars off of him hosting a show, so we'll almost certainly never know what really happened.
