Remember this man is tied in polls with Talarico.

I don't think anything short of declaring yourself a vegan or proclaiming pork ribs are better than beef ribs would be enough to disqualify you in the eyes of most Texans.

Or just simple vegetarian, it's very challenging to communicate/declare without some sour disposition

Those Texans sure have a skewed understanding of Christianity

No, not you forget Jesus forgives. And if you have faith you too should forgive all those politicians with Rs next to their name. The Ds of course mean the devil so you should never vote for them no matter how nice they might seem or how much they sound like Jesus's actual teachings.

I just can't wrap my head around why people accept this shit if it doesn't make sense logically. Probably my autistic brain.

Faith is a hell of a drug

They don't see it. Most of it is pretty heavily filtered or they just don't report stuff they don't want their people to know.

Does it really count as a mistress when he's been separated from his wife for two years?

Mostly_Gristle@lemmy.world · 25 pts · 70d

Is he still married? Then yes.

It's the still being married that's the defining factor, not the amount of time elapsed.

His wife who filed for divorce on "Biblical grounds?" Yes.

Republicans are raging hypocrites. They'll find an excuse to support Paxton.

I think we vilify sluts. They are people like you and me. Okay, I don't know about you, but I definitely am one. It's Ken who is doing wrong unless his wife knows about. Otherwise if the wife knows, then there's nothing to see here, just trying to swing morals around.

halfeatenpotato@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 69d (1 reply)

I hold no ill will against sluts in general, and I agree that Ken for sure is doing wrong. But I would argue that if the mistress knows the person is married (and in this case, they most certainly do), then they're also doing wrong.

Unless the wife knows and is cool with it, then yeah, nothing to see here.

Mistress? No.

Escort? Si.
