“Here’s what NBC should do: issue a blanket statement simply releasing from NDA’s all current and former NBC News/MSNBC employees who have information regarding sexual misconduct, retaliation, silencing or coverups.”

Same. I saw Rachel read that statement from NBC News and reflexively went “pfft!” This is better left to a legal team to take up some sort of class action effort to release former NBC News employees from this “perceived obligation” [the triggering words of the statement, imho] en masse. Is Gloria Allred available?

She also represents a swing district, so I’m sad about that too!

Oh, yes. I know Gen Y was just another term for Millennial, which unfortunately was the one that stuck. But I still reject being a Millennial. I am more sympathetic to Gen X, despite not being a jaded slacker.

<Sheds single robot tear.>

Sigh. Sad, sad story of life, isn’t it?
But there are always younger men out there (a rare few are tolerably mature).

OK, sure. I mean, Black Francis already pulled the fax stunt, so you’d best come up with something new.

I’ll say Gen Y, because I reject the Millennial label. I was quite happy with the Y classification when it was coined for us: we were sympathetic to X-ers, but we supposedly had longer attention spans, were high-achieving do-gooders, and rather than check out and slack off, we wanted to use our angst to effect some…

Oh, thank you for the details. I agree it is wise to keep business out of their “golfing buddy”-ship.
And Pineapple Street is a major player. I often hear Jenna Weiss-Berman (the founder) credited at the end of several podcasts. Some recommendations: Still Processing (with NYT reporters Wesley Morris and Jenna…

She’s beautiful so the fact that she can’t find anyone is disheartening to someone who is cute at best.

Also for some reason there are a lot of 35+ guys who think they’re “too young to settle down.”

Break up via fax. I dare you.

Did your Teddy Ruxpin lose his lower jaw as well?

Hard yes, “Generation Catalano”. [And I’m not even part of it.]

That sounds more dangerous than old fashioned trick or treating. Not only is there constant danger of being run over by cars of families who wish to jet early/arrive late, you’re also standing in exhaust fumes for a few hours.

I had no clue what “trunk or treat” was before reading your post, but agree it sounds awful. As someone who would prefer opt out of buying and handing out Halloween candy, though, I sort of like that the no trick-or-treating after dark phenomenon conveniently recuses me from participating. I usually make it home after…

As awful as that sounds, it isn’t completely out there. One of the things that disturbed me about reading Scowly’s recounting is that the employee’s continually going in on the granddaughter—and when he says he’s going to beat her, it just sounds like he’s leaning into these violent urges he already has. He probably…

Those pupusas look delicious, Cheers (as does the loaf). I’m imagining that plate is mine and they’re zucchini + loroco.

Was just going to say the same thing. For a moment I thought the OP must wear cargo pants to have a side pocket.

Giving the ever-growing size of smartphones, I would be unable to fit my phone in my any pant pocket other than the back one. But I usually carry it in my bag or in my hand.
