Fashion jobs are intended to held by girls like Olivia Palermo or Whitney Port, ie. trust funders who are well versed in the finer things and who can take or leave the supplementary income.

Ahh, I have literally "been there, done that" ... granted this was 15 years ago but back then the assistants were usually from wealthy media families or connected to them. I assume since the salary hasn't changed that the girls/ women haven't either.

Oh, I thought you just said "Fairy God Art Director" three times and *poof!* you're in the magic closet that no one is tracking inventory of.

Pretty much no one can afford fashion. At least not consistently. A fully updated wardrobe of $1000 shoes, $3000 "it bags" and $1500 dresses? Either be Beyoncé, marry Arod or let it go and make yourself at home at J. crew.

No they aren't. I can just about stand them if they are in a stew with so much other shit that I forget they are there. Or in turnip greens.

Blues also had such wholesome lyrics! We all knew "Let Me Play With Your Poodle" was a paean to dog lovers everywhere.

I'm just going to assume that you are suffering from severe Stockholm syndrome. ;)

As do I. I find her charming and funny but I can't help but imagine the Obama kids are in constant "MOM/DAD STAAAAAAP" mode.

Since when the fuck has rap not been an art? Your racism and classism are showing.

I wish that would happen, I wanna watch the heads of Fox News anchors explode

She needs to do another media blitz. She still has all the charm. America needs it.

I have Serious Feels for the First Lady that I cannot entirely describe.

God, I love her. Can't she run in 2016?! Hillary/Michelle 2016!!! Motherfucking lady dream team right there.

Sure, but it would also have meant that he'd knowingly exposed dozens of people to it, including his son and his fiancée. Since it's not at all clear that he did that, and in fact seems more likely that he didn't, I would think for the sake of his surviving family we'd want not to cast that aspersion. I don't mean…

I don't disagree. I'm just saying that even in the worst case scenario this guy did knowingly travel to the US as a infected individual, he'd still be a person worthy of empathy. Ebola is just as terrifying, if not much more so, to the people in infected areas than it is to us here and I wouldn't hold him in…

Thank you so much for this link.

But it's not at all clear that that's what he did. As Herman Cushy pointed out, there's no real reason to believe that he knew he'd been exposed, given that he may well not have known that the person to whom he was exposed, a pregnant neighbor whom he helped to get to the hospital, was infected; pregnant women often…
