You are probably right. But that is what kids do. If you can’t live with the norms of society, go and get a first class ticket. If not, you are stuck with “everyone else” including babies, teenagers, seniors etc.

Well, not exactly. She was asking for the consideration of being allowed a few extra minutes, promising that she would be done before the plane door closed (presumably the point at which the kid would be required to be strapped in). Then,she actually strapped the kid in - she was literally compliant.

Who cares? Flights are horrible. People eat stinky food, they take up too much space. On more than one occasion the asinine banter of adults has been more annoying that children. Get over it. Flying sucks. Kids are kids.

A lot of the victims of airline abuse seem to have something in common... I can’t quite put my finger on it... if I think hard enough, I’m sure I’ll come up with the white answer.

this is nuts. I have travelled twice with my children on airlines. the first time, I was by myself with my then 1 year old and 4 year old. my 1 year old was a lap baby. he was not “strapped in” during the entire flight. I breastfed him throughout. my kids were moderately behaved, but they were bouncing around in their…

She is. He upgraded her seat so she would be seated next to him in first casls, and she reacted to his groping by running to the back of the plane. That’s fairly memorable even to a serial harasser.

Yeah. that sounds like another Trumpian lie. He didn’t say this at all during the campaign, just that he would present evidence after the campaign that all women were lying.

At least it looks like good ink? A well done, but stupid tattoo is better than a stupid but shite tattoo.

Yeah there has to be more to this. Discussing surrogacy in the office is weird but nowhere near bad enough to force someone like this to resign.

Personal life aside, Johnny Depp’s acting has devolved into a camp parody of itself. What he seems to be nowadays is a Tallulah Bankhead impersonator. (Right down to the drunken slurring).

If you can’t see the chasm-sized gap between the bar of “perfect legislator” and the bar of “legislator who doesn’t opportunistically grope women,” then you’re part of the problem.

So, what should we do? Should we adopt their tools? Should we accuse Franken’s accusers of being paid political liars? Should we demand that they apologize for him for hurting his career? Should we shout “Fake news!” and go pull the lever for a known creep?

And here we have another person condoning sexual assault as long as they’re democrats.

Yes these comments are depressing as fuck

As one of the pussies, I’m just fine with a party that’s welcoming to us for a change. Both parties have been throwing women to the wolves for decades. What do you think happens to staffers who resign and interns whose biggest learning experience is that the statehouse isn’t a safe place for them?

He was a good senator for Minnesota.

This, by far, BY FAR, is the worst ‘apology’ statement out of the whole canon of ‘I’m sorry if anyone thinks they were hurt by the things I remember differently. I’m going to go away for a little while, because I need to make myself believe again that I’m awesome - so awesome I don’t need to rape!’ apologies.

Huge eyeroll.

Gah, the whole Moore/Trump thing. Our ethical guidelines can’t be summed up with “but mom, everyone else is doing it”

JANET.
