I did something similar with an overweight girl. I have felt terribly about it for years, and I hope I always do.

I overheard a couple girls do something similar when I was lifeguarding.

I used to feel that way myself, once upon a time. I detested Dubya, but I only criticized his policies and didn’t go in for personal attacks. I felt that the position of Commander in Chief deserved some respect, even if the man himself didn’t earn it. But then we got 8 years of all the vileness and crapitude…

If you feel entitled to force a baker to make a wedding cake for everyone no matter how they feel about them, then you should feel entitled to force a Rockette to dance for everyone.

I understand that, but if Kim doesn’t get paid, neither does Kris. This is not a parent-minor situation where a stage parent can sign their kids up for jobs, pressure them to work, and then collect and hold their child/client’s earnings. The only thing Kris can do is to stop negotiating work on Kim’s behalf, but if…

Would trust The Situation to broker peace between foreign bros before I trust Omarosa to do literally anything.

Fuck that shit. I give the office as much respect as the person holding it.

Yup. I’ve had to listen to my mother say “not my president” for the last 8 years, then suddenly, “trump’s your president too.” Give me a fucking break.

Nope. Performing should be entirely voluntary. I no longer respect the office of the presidency, because America has elected a man who not only brags about sexual assault, and coddles white nationalists, but who is supremely unqualified to do the job and doesn’t care.

Granted, I don’t personally know Kimmy, but she always seems to have a good sense of business and money. She went from selling her famous friends’ old clothes on eBay to being a multimillionaire. She might have 99 problems, but her bank account ain’t one.

No, you evidently do not understand why we have discrimination statutes. You don’t have logical consistency when you don’t understand the underpinnings of our rights.

You cannot compare being a sexist, and racist bigot to being gay. Sexual orientation is an immutable characteristic. People do not choose to be gay. Therefore that class should (and in many states is) protected from discrimination just like race and sex is. Donald Trump chose to say sexist and racist shit. It’s not…

“Force a baker...” already piling on the dishonesty eh?

MommaKris probably is ready to turn off the money spigot.

He’s also a weaselly, lying shit. The “non-partisan, American tradition” doesn’t seem to count when Democrats win.

Performing for Trump’s inauguration is absolutely seen as an endorsement of Trump and the way he talks about and treats women. Trump himself will say as much when they show up and perform. Remember, they are being coerced into performing for a narcissist who thinks everything is about him.

Why should SHE have to give up her career? I imagine it’s very difficult for dancers to find good work, let alone as a Rockette. I think that all Rockettes should be free to decline the work and not face any retaliation for doing so. I think pressure is being put on them that they will face serious consequences if…

I don’t know what some relatively smart Conservative Movement true believer thinks. But at the lower levels of intelligence and/or seriousness, if you look at the kind of rhetoric conservative trollish types use with liberals, and the smug satisfaction with which they present these kind of inversions, it’s pretty…

I think “force choking like Vader except without the force” is just choking.

It’s the alt-right sports version of the girl who sued UT Law School for affirmative action all the way to the Supreme Court even though she was way too dumb to gain entrance in any alternate universe.
