It’s not a tipping point, just the latest round of CYA. He got fired for lying to the bosses, not for what he did at the hotel.

My first exposure to SAE was them making the news for throwing pizza and racial slurs at a black woman delivering Pizza Shuttle.

He’s just pissed Aretha liked Ariane more than him.

they couldn’t understand and refused to let me express my frustration

They knew they’d fucked up when they issued the initial statement. That’s why it says the cop encountered “a suspect,” not “the suspect.” That’s how I read it yesterday — wait, are they saying they shot some third guy they encountered in the mall? But then all the surrounding reporting made it sound like he was the…

Both green and red leaf lettuce have a nice blend of crunchy=fun and color=nutrition.

I think you’re giving the NYT too much credit. The editorial decisions involved in publishing Judith Miller’s reporting [of what the Bush admin wanted people to believe, regardless of the truth] had more to do with being craven servants of American hegemony than a desire for profit.

I’d love to see all high-dollar severances reported as “banana pants fun time agreements.”

On what grounds should she face investigation? Aren’t you a lawyer?

On what grounds should she be investigated? Rich’s coverage of this from the beginning has been extremely conservative muckraking, in which he gets very angry at the judge for not punishing this asshat for all the future crimes he was expected to commit.

I thought Constance Wu was serviceable in CRA. More Kate Hudson than Julia Roberts. Awkwafina and Michelle Yeoh were far more important in making that movie fun.

I don’t read fanfic, but I did recently read gay men making fun of m/m fic written by women. My favorite part, condensed and edited for clarity:

I am the poor. As a resident of Missouri with a disability, I’m intimately familiar with our safety net. I’m not challenging your conclusion that Republicans are trifling ass bitches. I do feel personally invested in making sure people have accurate information about SNAP.

With SNAP (i.e. food stamps), you can buy just about any food at the grocery store except off the salad bar or the hot deli counter. Maybe you’re thinking of WIC? TANF is cash benefits that, on a practical level, you can spend on anything.

Don’t be silly, Rich has no qualifications to work for Jezebel. He still has a job because of union protections. A union he voted against organizing.

Shade would mention a crook at the tip.

“Grifter” suggests that Soloway knows it’s a scam. I’m certain they are sincerely convinced in the value of everyone assuming the world revolves around Jill Soloway and that processing the world through Jill Soloway’s perspective will bring us all to a better place.

If we’re using “gay people” as an umbrella term, the Governor of Oregon (elected in 2016) is bisexual and she would be the first.

Shaun King is confusing malfeasance with a conflict of interest. Kemp is acting contrary to the dictates of his job. It doesn’t matter that he’s running for Governor. It wouldn’t matter if Kemp recused himself and some civil servant in the SOS office was making the same decisions. The wrongdoing is independent of any…
