Lindsay did not listen to anything that girl said. She made up her own story for her in her head and just went with it. People not listening when I’m being clear is a huge pet peeve of mine. That conversation was so uncomfortable to watch. Does Lindsay ever interact with real people because that is not how human conve…

This, so much. I never was a particularly attractive girl or woman though I had my moments. When I hit menopause and became invisible I admit to having a hard time the first year. You don’t realize how much of your self worth is tied up in how men perceive you until they don’t perceive you at all. After I worked…

well relationships are hard when one has a monkey on their back..

If disliking overly cheeseball earnest crap like this makes me an aggressive posturing hipster, then I welcome that description.

PENTATONIX IS TRASH GROW UP

natalie portman is a very strong contender for “worst popular actor of the last 20 years”

Apparently basic literacy isn’t required to get a teaching contract anymore. Yikes.

American workers are increasingly over-specialized, mobility within an industry is very difficult because of the extreme consolidation (you’ve got maybe 2-4 chances per industry to make it work, then you’re out of options) and getting anything besides an entry-level job is difficult outside of that industry unless…

Is there any industry where this ISN’T happening? I completed 4 separate contract assignments and spent a total of 3.5 years with the corporate office of a large financial institution. Sure as shit, this company valued what I brought to the table, as they kept asking me back for assignment after assignment; but never…

Also his friendship with Millie Bobby Brown is just... off? (link)

This is vindicating!! The human cost of fast fashion is not a trivial thing to shrug off, but I’ve always been kind of skeptical of the idea that ‘designer’, or at least more expensive, items are inherently sturdier or higher quality. I’m a real stickler for feeling the fabric, inspecting seams, looking for linings,…

I know her as Fallon in Dynasty.

What my post meant was I wasn’t getting hired. No one was looking at my resume. The only interviews I was able to get were based on connections, not the interview slush pile. So, maybe Sandberg can start there: get more moms into Facebook, get more older (gasp! Over 40s) into Facebook. We’re not dead, but we’re…

I will be completely honest: I would veto giving someone with 300 followers free product, forget money. The return on investment for the company is a net loss after shipping and coordination in the scenario you describe. By which I don’t mean to disagree with your decision, people should do whatever they feel is right…

Remember folks, in the true Panopticon, there is no longer any need for watchful managers, because we’ve all been trained to watch each other. The marketing machine of the future does not require professional marketers, because the next generation will be trained at a young age to market to each other, to the point…

For once, I’m glad that I’m old enough to not GAF about influencers, Instagram, Facebook, etc.

More than any other reality show cast, the VPR has such a solid fourth wall on their show. They’re probably the most famous Bravo celebrities (collectively at least) and yet the ones who least bring up their own fame (or bring “the press” into conversation).

Someone calling themselves an “influencer” should be seen as a massive red flag. The whole thing sounds horrible, and I hope they use the money to get to see a therapist, because living life like that is wrong.

I totally understand and support anyone with enough ingenuity to create something from nothing and monetize their time and creativity. But other than the spirit of entrepreneurship what else about it inspirational to point I need to look at your bathroom selfies.   

I’ve always had a preference for younger men. My father loves reminding me that I am a “cradle snatcher” a trait which I have apparently inherited from my mother. No shame, yo.
