I used to use my house as a meeting place for a lot of different people and organizations. I kept a basket with free sex supplies, including small things of lube, condoms, dental dams, gloves, finger cots -- everything a growing dyke needs.

I would source them from a bunch of different places -- the lube and finger cots often came from free samples at sex shops or Pride events. I would usually buy the gloves. Condoms and dental dams typically came from either the county or a couple of gay men's orgs in Portland.

I'd give away 300-400 condoms a year, about as many gloves (if not more), half as many lube packets as condoms, and only a smattering of dental dams and finger cots.

Sure, my apartment was no Olympic Village, but I think I did my community a reasonably valuable service.

So, Trump induced Alina Habba to intervene with a plaintiff that had a case against him for sexual harassment. The plan was that she intervene with the plaintiff and pretend to represent her while in fact her law partner was representing Trump and had communicated back and forth between Trump and Habba, assuring her that even though she hadn't been "hired" that he would take care of her if she got the potential plaintiff to settle for a small fraction of what she was reasonably owed.

Habba did just that, never disclosing to the plaintiff that her partner represented Trump and she had had indirect communications with Trump about future pay and work if she handled this well. And Trump did like her work in intercepting the plaintiff's claim, and so that's how he decided to hire her.

Well THAT was fucked, and laid Trump open to a new claim. The plaintiff's new claim against Trump for this fraudy arrangement and unjust settlement has now been settled...

... but weirdly the settlement agreement includes the line that, "The parties agree that Alina Habba is not a party to this release."

Oh, Habba, you poor, stupid fuck. You're going to be on the hook for the whole fucking fraud less just 82k and then you're going to have whatever happens with this suit sent straight over to the ethics board.
