That is one of my issues with holding people responsible for missteps they took in their younger days. Be it groping, pot smoking, black face, cross dressing or other non felonies. Assuming you have matured and become a respectable person, you should be able to apologize and be judged on the character of your present and recent past. Look, Republicans totally ignored Trump’s very recent pussy grabbing, peeping on teenagers and philandering. Meanwhile, the Democrats are sidelining good politicians for things they did in their 20’s and have led as far as we know, exemplary lives since. Al Franken is a perfect example. He did weird, immature things back when he was a comedian. As he got older he settled down to become a champion of women, progressive politics and a leader of the party. Then we throw him aside, open the door for his seat in Congress to be taken by a conservative who will work against our Party, for something that he apologized for and it was decades ago. Actual criminals get pardons and are able to rehabilitate, why do we hold good people to an even higher standard? Sorry If I went a bit off the theme of the post.
Life is by ikea. Which means you’ll try as hard as you can to understand it’s shit for as long as you can.
Then you get drunk and try to fix it but eventually you’ll find someone who understands the parts that you don’t and y’all will build upon it for as long as you can together.
And still, when everything is together, working well, and looking great, there are still some extra parts left over.
