to a certain extent though, the intention of the piece is less relevant if it has come to mean something else entirely. See also, e.g. the swastika. Originally a Hindu symbol, that shit means something else now, so the original intent is irrelevant if you get is tattooed on ur forehead.

Correct me if I’m wrong here, renard:

fucking hell. Worse than an invitee to a Passover seder I’m going to, responding she can’t make it to dinner, signing off with “Happy Easter!”

lord have mercy... yeah.

especially because he doesn’t seem to see Holocaust victims as “Hitler’s own people”. I mean, fundamentally, they were, in the sense that they were citizens of countries he ruled/occupied. Does Spicer think that German Jews got a pass or something? I’m confuse.

somehow he thinks it’s less bad to kidnap and torture your victims for days/weeks/years before gassing them to death, than to just skip straight to gassing them to death. What is he smoking? Seriously?

even if they’re paying him $0, it’s too damn much.

did he... forget the words... concentration camp?

Thank you! I hate when people needlessly pit shows/people against each other. Also I LOVE Insecure SO MUCH. I will watch this as well.

Problem is, I live in San Francisco. Unless I want to pay crazy prices, have many connections, or both, United is basically where it’s at. Plus I have status due to work travel, and I’m made soft by it. I feel trapped. And my experiences have mostly been “fine.”

Zoe can’t not look great. She may be the world’s most beautiful human, TBH.

ugh her fucking preshow at the movies. LEAVE ME ALONE MARIA.

This was the last song the band played at my wedding, for, I guess, obvious reasons. This would have been v embarrassing; I should have added a “do not embarrass the bride” clause to their contract,” *except* for the fact that my dad had yet to dance with me and my stepmom decided this was the time to make him, so I…

Seriously. This is all I can think about. They could have shown some fucking humility. I have to fly United so these stories are especially disturbing.

Not knowing what his medical specialty is, he can’t necessarily just “rebook” patients. My dad is a pediatric surgeon and his patients generally have non-elective surgery; they cannot be “re-booked”. Plus they’re usually babies. Often pre-term. Again, maybe this guy was a dermatologist or maybe even a podiatrist. …

not if they are underage

plus it’s illegal to fail to comply with FA instructions...

There are also rules/laws/policies with respect to how long of a shift a flight attendant can work, and whatnot, it could’ve been something where they *had* to get these employees back to Louisville for some reason. I’m certainly not defending what they did, they should have kept increasing the reward until someone…

Especially at the caliber of Dunst, I’m like 1000% positive she reads scripts ahead of accepting roles. There is informed consent.

I mean, she can’t necessarily go “back” to a “real job”. What is she qualified to do? That’s unrealistic.
