The kid is trying to network and land a job in the field, so s/he has no choice but to show up and work the room.

Just... don’t go? Or go and tell ‘em you’re broke, because honestly they know you’re an intern and shouldn’t be surprised. Or just say you have plans if you feel like you have to lie to get out of it.

And the buildup of nice used furniture and abandoned pets was heartbreaking. As people left their homes and had to move in  with their relatives, like in 1930, they had to surrender their dogs and cats, live in their cars, beg for money to buy food.

I honestly didn’t know the exact event that started the whole thing cascading along. My son had been born fairly recently, and I was knee-deep in diapers and transitioning to solids and finding a pre-school. And honestly, I truly didn’t understand what had gone wrong until Bill Clinton went on Letterman and…

So Germany is still funding Nazis, then?

We don’t all suspect, (bordering on smug certainty), that Deutsche Bank is merely a money laundering service for Russian oligarchs (/Putin) to funnel funds to their international network of puppets/useful-idiots?

A spokeswoman for Kushner Companies, Karen Zabarsky, told the Times: “Any allegations regarding Deutsche Bank’s relationship with Kushner Companies which involved money laundering is completely made up and totally false. The New York Times continues to create dots that just don’t connect.”

This gif never gets old. Unfortunately, it also seems more appropriate every day!
