Glad to hear you were skeptical about the NYT piece. It was all over the place and was flawed from the outset when she admitted she had no data. While opinion pieces are formed from opinions, there usually need to be some undeniable truths at the starting point and there weren’t.

Thank you. This is what the NYT piece was missing. I’m sure that’s because the author never has to code switch and lives a life around the majority of white folk.

I disagree that the White House under the current administration is a high pressure atmosphere. This crew barely has talking points, has no shame and isn’t embarrassed when they get something wrong. They are happily below mediocre. They lie and then lie some more.

Yeah, I think that’s something the Catholic Church adopted around what... 2005?

As someone who’s worked in media, another big issue is that she was in charge of framing coverage of Black folk. 

All of those are terrible answers, especially the first two. I mean, I’ve had a child with a pathological liar/narcissist. That doesn’t end well.

I’m a Black woman. The personal is political. I was on a dating site a few years ago and I had radical Black feminist under my avatar. This older white right winger started trying to talk to me and I asked uhhh why? Didn’t he see what I put as pretty much my tagline? He said yeah, but didn’t really talk or think about…

Those piggies are so cute!!! I’m so happy to see that she’s doing so well.

Like the other folks on here, tell her she needs to get an attorney. I originally spoke to an attorney who did family and child-centered custody in my first consultation. Once I told her about what my ex was doing she said oh... sorry, you need a lawyer. He’s controlling and needs a third party who runs shit. She was…

Courts aren’t sympathetic to women, but I see what you mean. This needs to go to court. They need to not be doing this on their own.

Yay. It’s a great little movie. I haven’t watched it in years and hope it holds up. I may watch it tonight since it’s on Prime.

I kid you not, I totally want someone to print this on a t-shirt right now. I’ll wear the hell out of it.

I don’t know where this record number of women trope is coming from. It’s a lie. His administration is much more male and white than the previous two.

Carolina and NC State, to me, are the rivalry that North Carolina natives have. I literally couldn’t care less about State, but my homies who are NC born and bred hate them tremendously. So, I respect that because I was really just an out-of-state interloper.

Fauria also pretty much plagiarized the station’s apology. Like he couldn’t come up with a piece of shit apology on his own?

I don’t think she was even implying that homosexuality required forgiveness. To me it read like gay people aren’t even human to the Catholic Church.

They used to back in the 90s and early aughts. Don’t know what they do now. Even divorcees had to keep their dating silent last I heard.

What. You. Said.

She may just need a job and be not only religiously Catholic, but also culturally so.

Situations like this always remind me of the prosecution’s a-ha moment in A Few Good Men. Tom Cruise asks his team something like why would they put someone who barely finished law school and has never tried a case on a prosecution this important?
