Trump is a low information voter chosen by a bunch of low information voters.

She turned her hate inward which is why she aged so badly and died so young.

To me someone who abuses their physical body like that is practicing self-hate.

They certainly don't like themselves. Carrie did get her life together, but a body can only take so much abuse.

I know it's totally off topic but I just read the other day that Harrison Ford only got paid $10 grand for the original Star Wars. Apparently he was just a struggling actor happy to get a pay day so he could make the rent.

That's a far cry from the $25 million plus residuals that he got for the last one.

With that plus his Medicare and Social Security, he should be able to retire if he wants to.

Since we're talking Star Wars, allow me to boast. I saw it on the first day with a college and work buddy because he had read about it in a SF magazine. There were less than twenty of us in the theater. Best moment was when Obi Wan cut that guy's arm off with his light saber and then some dude behind us to the left commented "I gotta get me one of those."
