Absolutely. I am a department chair at a mid-sized state university in the Midwest, and therefore have been involved in faculty searches multiple times. If I were to receive this kind of "counter-offer", while it might not drive me all the way to rescinding the offer, it would definitely give me pause. And it has…

I was wondering if I was the only one who found this completely lacking in charm. If a three-year-old talked over me trying to mansplain something would learn some hard lessons. That child is going to be completely unbearable in ten years.

Yes. This kid probably learned this from some asshole who talks like this all the time.

Yeah, I was pretty much not finding it cute for this exact reason.

After spending 2 hours in a Kindergarten class today, I can unequivocally tell you: This is not cute. Nope. Not even little.

Cute, until you wonder where he picked it up.

Brooklyn 99, too! It's fantastic and diverse.

Yeah, I'm with Mindy. It's not enough that a woman or a person of color gets their own show and isn't some bullshit Uncle Tom-style stereotype, which is already hard — she has to have a diverse cast, and answer a thousand interview questions about her diverse cast, and heaven help her if her sense of humor is at all…

A poop on the stairs can be quite continental, but diamonds are a girl's best friend. ♫

I think we have turned into cats.

Yeah. I can really relate to the shitting on the stairs since that's what I do when I'm in love.

Wait, what? Shitting on the stairs and stuff is "honest"? I mean, this is all about casting people who are wild and getting them drunk. I don't even know how you define any of these shows as "honest." What would an honest dating/elimination reality show look like? What about that scenario is "honest"?!

How in the world is this "classic victim-blaming"? You mean a reality television star with an abundance of wealth who does anything to get attention in the public sphere is a "victim"? She made the public decision to be an escort to make some more cash. You using that term so casually ends up weakening what it…

Thank you.
Was really rolling my eyes at all the sympathy being thrown at her for this.

For God's sake Kardashians!! How much fucking money do you need??!!

If someone you don't know pays you to attend an event with them because they think you are pretty/sexy, and you only go because they are paying you, you are an escort. To take a job as an escort and then be surprised that it is awkward, skeezy or shady is stupid. You're an escort and that typically means your work is…

I admit I didn't read it in depth — I can only take so much talk about God — but I thought this was a nice piece? As strongly as I disagree with her on religion and birth control, I agree:

Rush Limbaugh has been trying to warn us about state paternalism, people. Did we listen? Noooooo. And now they have come for the bottomless brunches. We get the society we deserve.

I'm blaming the drunk Santas getting handys in Duane Read for this.
