WHO HAS BEEN CLONING TOMI LAHREN!?!?!?!
Maybe that’s why people keep leading me to a hotdog stand whenever I ask for directions. ;)
Yeah, Mrs. Bennet gets an overly bad rap. She’s annoying and ineffective, but in a lot of ways she’s more attentive to her daughters’ welfare than her husband. She has a bunch of daughters who are (mostly) pretty but who have no money and who are considered uneducated by their peers. There aren’t exactly a ton of…

It’s much easier to take away any work that’s in the person’s field of expertise and replace it with mindless busy work or no work at all until the person quits out of frustration.
When some of the more scientifically-minded staffers tried to argue their case to Bianca Moebius-Clune, they just found themselves going around and around in circles and getting absolutely nowhere.
Listen: I am the biggest sex ed advocate I know (I literally founded a pro-choice group in one of the reddest, Bible-thumpingist parts of the country), but I don’t think it really requires advanced sex ed to realize green shit shouldn’t be oozing out of the tip of a dick.
