What I interpreted that as meaning is that she wouldn’t have been fired for a nude photo if the kid had somehow stolen it after she did due diligence in protecting it, she was fired because she created the situation that allowed him to get it by not securing her phone.

She did leave unprotected nude photos in reach of minors in an unsupervised classroom. I don’t think she should have been fired but definitely reprimanded. If she had a physical photo album on her desk and one of the photos was a nude we would think that’s a very bad idea. Just put a damn passcode on your phone or…

I can just imagine being an actress (or actor, vanity knows no gender) that has dieted and dieted and probably barely ate today to not look puffy and is probably dehydrated also to not look puffy, the red carpet ends and you're sitting there just waiting and hungry and then Girl Scout cookies appear. I would pay all…

This is pretty cool! The Girl Scouts could use some fun press that makes them seem cool and showcases that there are lots of girl scouts of color. The Girl Scouts have put in a lot of effort to support troops in traditionally underserved and underfunded schools. I’m a lifelong scout and now troop leader and I really…

“We are the jezeborg, you will be assimilated, your technological distinctiveness will be added to our own, resistance is futile, also we make jokes about tabloids.”

A 35 inch waist is a jcrew 16 which means it's probably a pre-size deflation 18 or 20. She has no idea how numbers work does she? Maybe her blood sugar is low and she needs a snack.

Mavis Staples won so at least the world still has some sense.

CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP BOUT DAMN TIME!

I had never seen that one, thanks for sharing because she is the best.

I would hire you for my late night show based on this post.

Right?? Can we please change that stupid repeated line to something less awful already? How about, “there is a special place in hell for women who deliberately undermine women” or “there is a special place in hell for women who hate other women” or “for women who go after other women in ways they wouldn’t go after…

Ah shit. I had Rick Snyder in the capital with racism.

Clearly the solution is to privatize social security and eliminate food stamps. What could go wrong?

Now that is a haunting mental image. *shudder*

Alternative title: “trump teaches expert level course on being a cult leader”

I'm the same way, that's why I just wait until the last minute to read the book.

This seems like the right way to do a reading resolution, rather than a negative resolution:“I’m not going to read white men” instead a positive one: “I’m going to read books that I can learn from and discuss them with others who also want to learn.”

I like the line “oh you may not want to touch me, I’m not done with the course of scabies medication yet.”

Can you cite those studies? I'm interested in reading them.

Given all the terrible writing, fearmongering, and bad poetry, I would be doing a disservice if I didn’t at least suggest a good piece of writing. Patricia Smith’s Blood Dazzler is a fantastic collection of poetry. With all the news coverage I retread it for the first time in years. Everyone do yourselves a favor and…
