While Naomi, Cindy, and Christy now enjoy industry icon status, Karen has mostly vanished. After her interview was pulled, she spent five months in a psychiatric facility. She was later hospitalized for a failed suicide attempt and arrested for physically threatening her plastic surgeon.

This sounds like: Martha Mitchell effect

I came across this @netflix documentary The Martha Mitchell Effect and realized that I had no idea who Martha Mitchell (September 2, 1918 - May 31, 1976) was. Boy I had no idea what I was missing. She was quite a fascinating figure in American politics and history.

Mrs. Mitchell was the wife of John N.Mitchell who was the former Attorney General of the United States and campaign manager to President of the United States Richard Nixon. She was an outspoken woman in Washington politics at a time when sadly women were seen and not heard in a male dominated arena. She was a darling of the media in an administration that hated the media.

She went from being an ardent supporter of President Nixon to one of his biggest critics. The point of contention? The Watergate scandal. I'll leave it to you to watch to find out all the details.

For those trying to convince us there is more to the Boston Dumb Fuck-Fish Mouth saga, let me remind you...

Whether this is Megan, a family member or friend, or one if the main players themselves, you have lost all trust and credibility by doing an incredibly bad job, then blaming us for not believing you. We dont even know for exactly how long, because you keep changing the timeline on us.

Of course we know there is more going on behind the scenes. Of course we know Hollywood is a cesspool and will make its minions do things they don't not want to do. But that is still a choice. And there are still laws regarding cohersion, intimidation and blackmail (and worse, if that is what is going on). And there are glasses that can be used to read contracts, or at least just to skim for words like "marriage" or "morality clause" or 'damage to one's reputation" or "emotional and physical injury".

BDF, nothing is going to end up looking good for you after this, it just comes down to how much you are willing to sacrifice and how much you are willing to learn in order to grow. As I see it these are your options (I don't give a fuck about anyone else in this nightmare- they can all pound sand, for all I care):

Give up and accept you are married to an arrogant, racist, antisemtic, fatshaming Lolita who you will be connected to forever, regardless if and when you get divorced; no decent woman would want to be second place to that, and you will continue to have to compromise on your choices, never realizing you are the problem to begin with

Divorce her as soon as possible, but of course the little wifey will probably play the victim card because you do hold more power and are older and look like the creepy uncle next to her. Oh and all that work you did to show us this was all fake and you don't like her will be used against you, showing how emotionally cruel you were to the poor girl

Tell everyone you lied and were never married in the first place, but that will probably piss off the general public for making them look like fools and making you even less popular than ever

BEST OPTION- lay out, with evidence, why you lied. What was the reason for this madness. Show what it did to your body and mind. Partner with a good documentary crew to bring these bastards down. You are a private person, I know, but that went out the window as soon as you signed your life away. Make us all understand. Make this make sense. You will make some powerful enemies, but they weren't going to give you what you wanted anyway. You would just continue to be their puppet until the felt ran thin and they tossed you in the garbage, picking up a new one on the way without a second thought.

You may think there is something to save, but it's all burning down around you. Best we can hope for is to get you out of the smoke and ashes safely and clear the land so you can build something much stronger. Can you do that? Or are you too busy shushing your thoughts away and smoking weed to notice or care?
