I love old-time music & dance, my husband & kids, Northern California, liberal causes, my dog. Not necessarily in that order.
The cruelty is the point. The more random the better. It's the abusive partner who smashes a dish or kicks a dog - the message is, "I can harm you, anytime, without reason or warning." Ruling by intimidation & fear.

I oversaw global health programs at @USAID.
They reached 100s of millions of people, added 6 extra years to the lifespan of children in partner countries, and were eradicating health threats worldwide.
What insanity and cruelty to break that.
