Look at the data they’re pulling this from. It’s not numbers of staff members that left but calculated based on the share of salaries that turned over. Someone could could be overturning their junior staffers far more frequently whereas she’s overturned a few CoS, bringing up her turnover rate.

But she also had most of that turnover under a Democratic President, and with a Democratic Governor back home.

i refuse to give a single fuck whenever hubz is sick, i don’t believe he is in even 1/10 of the pain he pretends to be in.

I work in a male-dominated industry and moved to the client relationship side of things about 5 years ago. Since then I have had to take part in endless conversations with my colleagues about which companies are doing well/poorly, who got a new job etc. Over work dinners or other semi-social occasions when I would…

A friend of mine had to (unplanned) deliver his children at home and seriously credits Call the Midwife as the reason he could remain calm and had any idea what to do!

Can’t wait to do a tracheotomy with a novelty bendy straw.

For a group that continues to insist they did nothing wrong, they sure seem to have spent a lot of time lying under oath about it.

I once had a student get very mad at me because I wouldn’t let him write a stakeholder research paper on why abortion should be illegal. To be clear, the stakeholder paper requires the writer to be tangibly affected in a real, demonstrable way by whatever issue is at stake in the paper. I’ve had students write great…

Like so many bills that were stalled by the Republican Senate, this is long overdue.

Now, let’s get cracking on removing the statute of limitations for rape and REALLY stick it to Cardinal Dolan.

Seeing him show up on Justified without his lip racoon was strange. I saw a man, but I heard the moustache.

That, and that fact that anyone would even MENTION them as a group instead of as the societal norm.

The patriarchy elevates women who will uphold its structure.. But if mediocre, amoral men sail through into positions of power with much fanfare, not sure why the standard should be different for women. Women should be allowed the leeway to be bad elected officials. We need to understand that if the standard is equal…

I am so damn psyched to have Ms. Haaland representing her district in Congress, and Ms. Davids as well. When I heard Deb Haaland talking about making the climate crisis her top priority and forming up (or joining) a caucus of Congresscritters who agree with her, I was so psyched I jumped out of my chair and screamed.…

Pro Tip: You don’t actually HAVE to be suffering from low-frequency hearing loss in order to not hear men’s voices. Just ignore them. When they wave their arms frantically at you, just say “Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t hear you! I have low-frequency hearing loss.”

I got shingles in my ear a few years ago, and that fucked with my ability to hear lower sound registers. It make music sound weird but did not, unfortunately, block out the yammering of man. Quel dommage.

Hey...cut him some slack. Some guys never even learn where the button is.

The best thing about AOC is that she shows another kind of politician is possible. For decades we have been told that we only have a choice between your average evil republican and your run of the mill spineless democrat. After a lifetime eating thin gruel, we look over to the other table and see they have steak. Why…

Yeah, but if she isn’t having periods, it’s because she’s not ovulating. No ovulation means she can’t get pregnant. It’s possible she had highly irregular periods, which is why the staff didn’t think much of her periods stopping. But how did they not notice other signs of pregnancy?

Nobody noticed because it’s not something that would be tracked or recorded. One caregiver could see 20+ people a day, they walk in, clean it up and move on. Standard charting doesn’t include menstrual tracking, and unless there’s a specific order by the doctor, they wouldn’t make a note of it either. Vegetative, and…

Oh for sure, it’s totally disgusting. It’s strange that in both Talk to Her and Brimstone & Treacle (per the wiki summary) the incapacitated woman is “cured” by being raped. I’m not even sure how to parse that...
