Comedian David Baddiel -Mum died on a Saturday – apparently that’s quite common. Dad already had dementia, and my brother and I had to let him know the news.

Reddit:  I'm care worker myself and amount of situations where I literally have to step out is ridiculous. Everybody will tell you to relax cause they are just and old ladies being happy having young man around, but at the end of a day it's my lack of comfort in a workplace having some old fart asking me to apply moisturizer on her breasts or thighs. But not only! Homoxexual behaviour of male clients with dementia is common as well. Everybody will laugh but you'll be there on your own scared and confused. And it's all alright for everybody because I'm a man and I'm expected to deal with this myself in polite way.

Former FBI Director James Comey -  The most important thing that happened during President Trump’s post-impeachment rant at the White House didn’t happen at the lectern.

How it is possible that they didn’t get up and walk out — that they seemed to participate actively in something they should know was deeply wrong? How could they smile and laugh? Because they are people. And, like all people, they too easily surrender their individual moral authority to a group, where it can be hijacked by the loudest, harshest voice. I know because I’ve done it.
