I suppose as far as the resignation goes I can’t or don’t know what his motivation was for demoting her. I guess I hoped that she would fight harder to keep the position she earned rather than go away quietly. Again I don’t know the reason for the demotion nor her motivation for leaving and not saying why. While I…

Once again I learn new things in Kinja comments. I had never read Burroughs but picked up a couple of his books at a library sale. I have a problem of buying a lot of books and it takes me a while to get to them. Learning this makes me think maybe I’ll just donate the ones I have. I think that feeling of being conned…

No the “reverse OJ” here is where they chose to hold the trial. If OJ had been tried in Brentwood it would be a similarly mostly white jury. The defense purposely had the venue changed and played on the idea of this great black hero being wrongly accused by white people. The ESPN documentary and Amercian Crime season…

Guess it’s a little early to expect a correction but that’s quite a bit of difference.

That’s what I have an issue with though. While I can understand your and perhaps her reading of the situation to let them come around on their own, I don’t see how she really “showed them the error of their ways.” I mean maybe you can point to the coffee incident in isolation but her continuous, at least in this post,…

Not just the coffee but her seeming inability to recognize a lot of her treatment as sexist. While I appreciate that she seems to be coming from a positive outlook sort of viewpoint. There were way too many “what’s the point of making a fuss?” type responses for my taste. You don’t have to be shitty to let people know…

Reading the NYT article I see that Johnson pulls the old “I’ll surround myself with the best people” routine. When will people get it that most reasonable people prefer there President to at least be informed about news covered by almost every news outlet? I mean I don’t have the expectation that someone with…

I second MentatYP. I love that I learn new things in the comment section. While Kinja can be a pain in the ass at times the quality of comments on the former Gawker media empire are above and beyond any of the other sites. Even the NPR sites are littered with trolls.

That’s my take on this. I mean does she want to be comforted by Trump? I couldn’t imagine she would prefer him touching her more.

The fact that he didn’t understand where and how oil is obtained coupled with not knowing the current market value given the other sources of oil makes my head explode. I just want to scream “how dumb can this man be?” Followed by “Please don’t let him anywhere near policy decisions.”

It’s been a number of years but there were a couple of interns at my job back then who were debating answers to a quiz on a Cheetos bag. One insisted that Benjamin Franklin “discovered” America and the other asked what continent Africa was on. It’s very sad you seem to be encountering the same issues all these years…

My office promoted a 24 year old with no degree and barely any work experience outside of our company to VP. The person is a woman and works very hard. The problem is trying to reason with someone about more efficient and logical ways of operating based on past job experience instead of her limited view about how…

From the NYT article “On Saturday, a woman in the congregation approached the press corps in a different spirit. “I’m glad you’re here,” she said, proceeding to hug each reporter in sight.”

The pic on Gossip Cop looks like a padded bra.

Just getting to this post. I really wish Hillary would get better cut jackets. As a petite woman who has larger breasts and my weight hanging out in my stomach there are flattering, shorter jackets that work better for women like me. The jackets she wears are too long in my opinion.

Happened to me. Stewardess took me on board a plane, small airport with commuter planes. Turns out I should have been on the other plane. Confused me with a little boy who was also traveling. I was a girl with very long hair and wearing a dress. Didn’t look like a “Michael” in my opinion. I figured it out when they…

Then again Dana Scully had some terrible outfits. Although they were probably the most realistic.

My 2nd grade teacher accused me of not only stealing chalk but doing so and giving it to other kids. I was called a liar, when I denied the accusation, and a thief, the principal got involved. My mom was pissed (at the teacher). She sent the teacher an “apology” letter with a box of chalk to supposedly replace what I…

The photo is of a track and field athlete, like the one accused of the assault.

As others have said I wish there were more stars to give. ETA: This needs to go on a Tshirt now! Mangy goat in orange marmalade who thinks he’s a unicorn, if you do it I think you will just take everyone’s money.
