“She’s not always wrong!”

Two of Haiti’s main problems are corruption and that massive debt they’ve owed to France since gaining their independence in the 1700's. I’ve never heard a good explanation as to why France doesn’t forgive that debt after all these years and let Haiti have at least a chance of getting on their feet.

I wonder if they sort of naively viewed Pascal as another sort of accessory. It’s difficult to get your mind around the idea that you might truly be at risk.

It looks like the costume design staff just went to the Clarks outlet at the nearest mall.

I can only take Portlandia in small doses. The characters, which supposedly spot on for the city, are in large part more pitiful than anything else.

Do they have a problem with the skits where Carrie plays a man?

Portland makes Salt Lake City seem ethnically diverse, and that’s saying a LOT.

Agreed. She didn’t have a mean bone in her body, she was just used to Mom doing everything for her. Not ready for the world at all.

A lot of that is modern carbon, stuff that’s actively circulating through ecosystems already. Burning fossil carbon, material that’s been locked away in geologic layers, is still a much bigger problem as it adds carbon into the ecosystem rather than just changing modern carbon’s form.

“Creative Digital Director (and genius) Sally Singer, Chief Critic Sarah Mower, Vogue Runway Director Nicole Phelps and Fashion News Editor Alessandra Codinha all offered varying viewpoints of the week but had somewhat synced assessments of the behavior of the thirstiest of street style types”

So, who is going to hire Kellyanne once the Trumps fire her? Does Roger Ailes have a job opening somewhere? She might regret that, however.

This is the guy who didn’t recognize the name of a region of New Mexico when he was running for governor of that State. He’s affable, but doesn’t seem too worried about facts.

They lose me when they talk about reducing regulations on companies. The idea is if a company sends out a bunch of food products laced with salmonella, people will quit buying that companies product and, voila, the market has taken care of the problem. In reality, though, it’s better that you prevent to the extent…

Another problem is that some Libertarians take it way, way beyond the point of common sense.

“money to rebuild Flint, Michigan’s lead-tainted water system, which has poisoned hundreds of children”

This was in grad school, not undergrad, but it’s a doozy.

To say my roommate freshman year was a bit of a princess would be an understatement. I moved in first to our double room, she and her family arrived about an hour later. Her mother pulled me aside and said that (let’s call her) Amy had never used an alarm clock before. Mom had always come into her room and kissed…

In Trump’s case, it’s massive overcompensation for something.

Maybe it’s like one of the old British great houses and the resident family actually lives in an apartment within the house.

“Walk through the estate’s large outdoor gates and through the main foyer with its glimmering chandelier, stucco wall finishing and rich neoclassical columns, and you will feel as if you’ve walked into the home of an 18th-century nobleman,”
