So much this. My mother heads up a government department library - the number of times she is dismissed as a “librarian” while her male colleagues (who report to her) are referred to as “director” still astounds me. She though is entirely used to it - one colleague didn’t correct the politician who made the mistake,

He didn’t “become” a billionaire, he inherited money from his father and actually has done worse with it than if he had just invested in a fund directly tied to the S&P.

All the women photographers I know use Canon anyways

This seems fairly typical of the photo world I once belonged to. “We love women - as long as they are naked, partially dressed, young, thin, and in front of my camera.” I follow some of the larger “photography communities” on twitter and tire of the “What do you think of this shot?” posts that inevitably end up being

The name for that color is staring us right in the face:

I guess his Garanimals are at the cleaners.

James Woods, like most of his unhinged brethren, exists only in opposition to ideas. Entirely incapable of advancing the human condition or articulating arguments for anything, they can only scream, “No!” in the face of progress and obstruct the work of others.

So not only does Tamblyn’s description of the encounter ring true, she follows/juxtaposes it with this;

I love Serena Williams so much. I love that she is just doing her thing totally unbothered while Shriekadopa tries to steal the headlines with something that happened over a decade ago. I hope Serena keeps putting out baby pics and training videos whenever Maria opens her yap.

Trump also said it was his favorite uncle. Not sure what he meant by that.

I teach the youths at the university. One of the great moments of any semester is when one of the youths, bolstered by the confidence and ignorance of the aforementioned youth and complete lack of background research, decides to tell me about their invention that will change the world. Much, much more often than

But in Japan they have vending machines for everything - and still have stores. I feel like the US as a whole is way behind on convenience.

If you have no intention of killing someone, you shouldn’t pull the trigger.

I went to chipotle today for lunch, and there was a new decal on the window outside that read: “Chipotle has Queso! Not Fake News!” The [second] biggest regret this country should have about the 2016 election is allowing “Fake News” to become a part of the societal lexicon.

Not saying that Sinead would have been the megastar she thinks she would have been without tearing the picture up.

As a theatre professional I just need to shout one more time: NOT EVERYTHING NEEDS TO BE TURNED INTO A GOD DAMN MUSICAL.

I can’t count how many times I heard or read the meteorologists say “this could go anywhere from the west coast to the east coast and we won’t know until Saturday morning at the earliest” and “no matter where it goes all of Florida will feel a hurricane”.

I feel so sorry for you, and your lack of empathy and ability to experience strong feelings for a pet, as well as your lack of ability to understand what integrity is. In light of your lack of ability to understand those feelings and abilities in others, you should consider shutting the fuck up.

The problem is that there is just no good way to move 6.5 million people quickly. Until we develop a culture as a society where we start shuttering businesses, providing leave, transportation and lodging a week ahead for an orderly evacuation, we’re going to keep having this problem.
