... which will maybe make your company re-evaluate sending you on all those flights, which is the point. I don’t know about your job, but at mine a lot of the flying people do is for purposes that could pretty easily be done over videoconferencing.

Trolls =/= valid opinions I disagree with. They are shit-stirrers for the sake of shit stirring.

It’s not particularly funny but you are missing the point. A major force in pop culture for decades is calling out Trump as an un-American criminal.

If we HAVE to stand for a specific song, and HAVE to put our hands on our hearts or risk getting jacked are we really free?

In corporate culture, many women feel the need to compete. It’s basically cool girl syndrome for grown ups. They are the roughest, toughest, most savage bitch at the conference table, and don’t you forget it.

I teach a unit on Media Literacy to my high schoolers and one type of fake news is actually poorly done “satire” sites. Major sites like the Onion are considered satire due to their higher quality and longevity. There are a LOT of small websites that claim to be satire but the content is simply not clever or good…

Right wing people live in a dark fantasy world.

The Republicans are only in favor of their male candidates sucking on dildos.
