Oh, I have a good spelling bee fuck-up: I was given the EASIEST word ever, miniature, and in my arrogance because I distinctly remember feeling so confident once I was given the word, just rushed right in to spell it///(against our regional rivals, FML)... I left out the “a.”

I pronounce antiquated as “ an-tee-eek -ated”. I was corrected, gently, by a co-worker, but the shame, 15 years later, lingers. Also, im-no-sci-ent, when pronouncing “omniscient.”

Her job is to look Republican pretty and collect a paycheck. 

From her fresh blow out and dye job, I’d say her and her lawyers are definitely banking on it.

Add state colleges and universities to that list. Their tuitions have been rising consistently for the last decade, as they receive less and less state and federals funds to offset tuition and costs. So they build big fancy campuses with elite gyms and commercial coffee houses and fast-food/chain restaurants (Dunkin…

Just to add, don’t forget credit checks and references. If your credit isn’t perfect or nearly so, you can be denied an apartment even if you can drop all that cash at once and afford to move.

I hear his tax returns are coming soon too. If only that audit would end, he’d love to just finally get those out there and put the suspicions about who pays him to rest. 

But watch the media fall all over themselves “raising doubts” about the allegations of attempting to collude for political gain. 

You and I know why. 

Holy crap. Thanks for sharing that. Getting her book tomorrow.

Hey now, they didn’t specify what change they were trying to enact, so maybe they’re right! They sped up climate crises impact on poor communities, other species, and weather phenomena = change. They are destroying social welfare nets and health care options - change. They are enriching themselves through tax cuts…

I feel bad for Britney. I know she suffers from mental health issues, but the publicity about all aspects of her life, it’s sad. I clicked on this article, I know. She’s what, 37? She’s aged a lot for only 37. I’m 9 years older than her and I look at that picture and think, “this is a woman who may not end well.” I…

That’s exactly what you’re suggesting. Or otherwise, you’ve decided to be the savior of their membership when it has nothing to do with you at all. Perhaps wait for the invitation to rush in on your white horse. 

They don’t owe you anything. They can endorse whoever they want to; they’re a private organization. What’s the matter with you?

Exactly. They can support who they want to, they’re the ones doing the work. My union tells me who they are endorsing, and I decide if that’s who I want to vote for. But they still endorse who they’re going to endorse. There is no scandal here. What a clusterfuck this comment section is. 

I have trouble believing trump is smart enough to distract. If anything, in my mind, he’s the one easily distracted, so his aides whisper things in his ear that they know will distract HIM and by extension, Fox News and their listeners. 

Thank you, I immediately thought of this and how it totally refutes his so-called awareness of security protocols. Even after this long in office, he doesn’t get it and he won’t stop. How are we still alive? 

Yeah, I mostly stopped listening because they tend to be formulaic and just agree with each other for about an hour, but I was a weekly listener for two years and they really pushed (both in the podcast and on the streets) for progressive candidates and agendas. As a critique, they re-hash issues and events of the…

It’s almost as though she has a strategy and chooses her words carefully in order to not have them twisted and used against her, as has been done (to her and others) in the past...it seems you understood her meaning, so I guess it worked!
