So, given how MAGAs have responded to so many prior public incidents by protesting in the most self-harming ways possible (destroying property they’d already paid for, giving money to companies that annoyed them, etc), I expect to see a mass of people signing up. Willingly handing your personal information over to

Those that hate their hate being hated.

This was a very enjoyable read. Every part of it. Remind me who the snowflakes are supposed to be?

Literally just status. It’s sad.

The really dumb question: Why does she even need a degree? What could it possibly do for her? Why would her parents pay 500k to get her into a good school when they could put that same money toward ... idk, launching a clothing line or acting classes or some other kind of self promotion more in line with this woman’s

One thing I’m really interested in (assuming we all last that long) is what do these “influencers” look like in 5 or 10 years? I already can’t believe that people give a shit what type of makeup Aunt Becky’s teenage daughter wears, but one she ages out of the slightly older sister demo, who is going to listen to her?

This is the nouveau riche version of notorious “legacy admissions” that the dimwitted offspring of wealthy families have depended upon forever (see Bush, George W., Trump, Allof’em, and Kushner, Jared). Spoiled brats and the parents who spoil them. I never want to hear another word about Affirmative Action for

Well why the hell was the song being sung in a church?!  Now people will think there's a connection between organized religion and sexual abuse!!

Hillary Clinton no longer works there. 

Once upon a time, we had an entire department devoted to helping our representatives avoid embarrassments like this. I wonder what ever happened to the State Department?

This administration is scared of smart people, so they don’t hire any to do the prep.

I’ve worked for elected and public officials for almost 15 years. You are correct. This assumes the person being prepped is paying attention in the first place.

Well, not if the “President” himself doesn’t believe in preparation, or expertise, or facts, or science, or....

Be best, Melanie.

I’ve told that riddle several times to grown adults and it is endlessly amusing (but also concerning) to me how many people are sure the right answer is “gay dads” instead of the more statistically probable “mom doctor”

I understand not knowing leaders all over the world, but wouldn’t the hours or days before an event like this be filled with prep, looking at pictures and memorizing names and such? Especially for the first lady, whose “job” is to host guests at the white house.

I cannot imagine anyone who hears about a new MCU movie and thinks, “Well, I’d better check those Rotten Tomato scores before I buy a ticket.”

Kids take it personally when they express a deep desire to watch a 90 minute cartoon and are told for YEARS that they can’t unless Mom can find a vhs player at a random garage sale. Especially lately when they grow up with so many streaming options at their fingertips. I’m rejoicing with you Kelly!

Let’s collaborate this mofo. I just haven’t figured out what the Hoods should steal. Perhaps Klimt’s portrait “Danae.”

Might I interest you in my all women, all redhead Ocean’s 11 heist thriller?  It would star Amy Adams, Jessica Chastain, Isla Fisher, Dallas Bryce Howard, Haley Bennett, Christina Hendricks, Karen Gillan, Emma Stone, Felicia Day, with Julianne Moore as the villain.  Music by Florence Welch.  I call it “Red Riding
