You didn’t read the article. It was not the family’s gun.
It is still not clear to the family how Malachi got his hands on the dangerous weapon. Stephens said that he got the gun from a friend who got it from someone else. Investigators are looking into finding out who originally had the gun and passed it to the friend, the news station notes.
“What advantages does this war have over, say, an ethnic cleansing, which I could also afford?”
Exactly. She doesn’t really seem like somebody who should be celebrated with a show based off of them on Netflix. I also have pet peeve about people using the term “vintage” to sell used clothing from not that long ago, which is something she described doing in her book.
I think the problem is her main audience just doesn’t know. They see the publicity (and this article is no exception) and see success even if her business has now essentially failed.
Being a woman and also a boss is not enough, if you’re just as exploitative and terrible as any other boss.
Agreed. She had a real talent for picking out clothes, and although some of her origin story strikes me as bullshit, I do think she grew a business from basically nothing based on that talent. But she treated employees like garbage and handed the company to a series of subsequent chief executives without her talent,…
UGH WHY
Ugh. It’s weird when someone has a story (at least, you know, the small paragraph synopsis story) that sounds like something or someone you’d root for- but for some reason I’ve just never had that for her.
I don’t want to sound like a hater because I was really a fan of the brand from the beginning but it’s hard to see someone like Amoruso being hailed as a champion for #girlbosses when Nasty Gal faced multiple discrimination lawsuits from former (female) employees.
I can only wish for such arrogance.
One of the most exhausting and frustrating things in the whole entire world is a privileged white person with oppressive political views getting bent out of shape because someone reasonably makes the logical connection from those political views to personal beliefs and calls her out on it.
It also means he got drunk once and cheated on his wife.
It’s honestly emboldened white people in general (disclosure: white person, here).
One really sick part about this whole thing is that this is how A LOT of white people talk when no one else is around. The Trump era has made people think this is OK to not only say while at home, but on national television. People need to be publicly shamed for saying shit like this.
There are plenty of game jams and workshops for you. This one is not for you. I can’t imagine that will really affect your life all that much, but if it does, consider it a trade-off for all the other inherent advantages you’ll have in the video game industry. Not having to worry all that much about being sexually…
I’ll assume you’re commenting in good faith despite your use of an awful buzzword like “identity politics,” so consider this: Lots of girls are taught that video games and game development are for men. Girls Make Games is an institution designed to teach girls that hey, they can play and make video games too, which…
Can we also talk about the fact that Chrissy Teigen “sleeping” through his acceptance speech was probably not a coincidence?
I have the day “off” because I only work full-time May through October as a nature guide, though I develop and practice programs and talks for this org all year round for no pay. I plan to go out with my husband, wear red and offer coffee to women striking if there are any (shout out to Pioneer Valley MA)? I tried for…
