Not even they should be inflicted with a Drumpf meeting.

Yep, I have two friends living in separate states - one is in Georgia, one is in California, and both had messed up agonizing delivery problems from West Elm.

Well it’s hard to tell them apart when you consider this:

I’m always surprised when executives with terrible track records keep getting jobs. What about all the talented, smart people in the world looking for work? Sigh. West Elm has infamously shitty internal procedures (endless terrible reviews online from disgruntled customers missing couches and beds with comically bad…

If we’re going back into 90's territory, I wish VH-1 would bring back the 2010's show “Hindsight”, a show based in the 90's, which was amazing. It only got canceled because VH-1 hired a new program director and he axed anything from previous program directors, so he could urinate/mark the channel with his own scent,…

“Bill is like...a supporting character in the entire scandal at this point.” I know, right? It’s along the same lines as women who get angry at the mistress rather than their own husbands for the adultery. 

Amen to this.

Sometimes I think I’m at maximum dislike for Drumpf, and then I’m exposed to more of his tweets and a fresh new, even higher wave of disgust descends.

“ I would have kept the concern about finding a new job to myself. Did she not expect to be quitting her day job back when she decided to run for office?” I don’t know - I feel like it’s her appeal to the people to showcase how awful and how serious the repeal of the ACA is, that she’s as concerned as her fellow…

“When things are in style, there are more options. Christ.” Well of course. Although I’ve always been able to buy a fanny pack, literally any year, in many styles. My comment was geared towards the topic of fanny packs on women in general, and fanny pack naysayers (of which you are not) have been naysaying for years…

I do make fanny packs happen - I never stopped wearing them. Look, I have always given zero fucks about what I’m “supposed to do” in terms of women’s fashion, so I have always used utilitarian things when I needed a utilitarian thing, even if it’s not “pretty” to the masses. I go to lots of art fairs and festivals…

I’m so so sorry for your loss. <3 It’s inconceivable right now, but you will make it through this, and the pain will not be the sharp unfathomable tailspin it is now. Something that I didn’t realize at the time that really helped me: talking about your mom and your memories of your mom with people who are willing to…

Heyyyy TampaBeeatch! You gave me great career advice many Saturdays ago, so I just wanted to pop in and say hiiiiiiiiiii! And to offer up a tidbit of something good: went on a tiny but beautiful vacay recently - filled with nature, more nature, and almost no internet. Very healing! I saw waterfalls, sweeping beach…

Ditto! Hugs all around!

Following for the answers. I can totally relate. It’s very difficult to job search while you’re feeling down - speaking from experience. Every expert I’ve talked to keep pushing LinkedIn, but damnit I don’t want to really be on there (I don’t love the idea that everyone under the sun can suddenly know you’re entire…

Whew, this is a big one with a more complex answer than is possible in just this thread. But, the obvious first answer is to cut these people out of your life if you can. (I had a relative that was like this - I’ve cut her out of my life as best I can. I still have limited interaction with her because she is…

Hard yes. Love them! So cute!

“and I really don’t think I can ever truly forgive them or regain all of my respect for them, which is terrible. It will always be in the back of my mind that they made such a foolish choice. And it’s not supposed to be that way. I just can’t help it.” I think so many of us feel this way. I have a hard time not…

Yes! One of my in-laws happens to be a man married to another man - and he voted for Drumpf in a swing state. It enrages me, and also baffles me at how a gay man can vote for someone with Pence as VP?? The point is, I think the cognitive dissonance in his voters is off the charts! The thing I always point to is…
