    I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again. I’ve met Gretchen and her daughters on a few very unofficial occasions. She’s polite, gracious, helpful, and gives zero fucks.

    There was a podcast that was put out last week where she was promoting her book and swearing her motherfucking ass off like a true Michigander. Legend.

      Yep, that’s publicity.

      One of my university peers’ family was friends with Medvedev’s (ex. president of Russia, now the most fascistic freak) family. When he was struggling with exams, Medvedev even wrote him a sweet letter to cheer him up.
