        ok…since my stroke in 2020 I’ve been diagnosed with clinical depression, who the hell am I scamming? Anyway, I’ve found that if I drink 32 ounces of water before bed every night, I have a reason to get out of bed every day…no seriously, if you’re depressed, see a doctor.

          Needing to pee is often a great motivator to get out of bed, unless you’re really depressed.

        Makes me also glad Dr.Oz lost his chance to be a senator. But damn was it scary close.

        We don’t really need anymore celebrities of any kind to take up positions of power and influence. We’re already suffering the effects of a bad businessman, conman celebrity as it is.

        Oprah really needs to catch more flack for the grifters she legitimized and damage she did to the overall culture through them and other new agey bullshit

      Apparently she was once a ‘spiritual advisor’ to Oprah. Take that with however many grains of Wikipedia salt as you feel necessary.

    My heart isn’t breaking for this. Why?

    She began her professional career as spiritual leader of the Church of Today, a Unity Church in Warren, Michigan.

    We don’t need anymore god damn religious people in power!

    She was launched into prominence by Oprah Winfrey, being a frequent guest on her daytime talk show and becoming known as her “spiritual advisor”.

    Which has fuck-all merit in how to better a country.

      As far as I’m concerned, being promoted by Oprah is an indication of lack of quality more than anything else. Dr Phil, Dr Oz, John of God.

    Sad. The only candidate that was pushing for actual progressive policies. The media treated them like they didn’t even exist.

      Let’s be real, she wasn’t a real contender. She was also a non-entity in 2020 (other than brief divergences to make fun of her mysticism). It’s not like Bernie jumped in for round 3 and the news just pretended it didn’t happen.
