I do wish the face looked more like Michelle. I mean, it’s a cool painting, I love the contrast of the grey and the blue, and I think the inclusion of the flying geese pattern on her dress is playful and fun (as a quilter I am a big fan of that pattern), but the face is just... off. Michelle Obama is a genuinely…

I want to be positive but I don’t think that looks like Michelle’s face at all....

Darker, Gayer, Different.

Weed helps.

Oh, agreed absolutely. It’s not a factor that’ll stop his disciples from yanking his lever in any way. But being illiterate changes the functioning of the brain in a lot of ways (a study is here), and most of those ways are negative.

I bet Quayle has higher intelligence than Trump in every measurable metric.

Things do tend to take longer when they have to be explained over and over again.

It’s been fairly common knowledge since before the election that he can’t read, or—if he can—it is at a very, very low level.

Judging by the way he’s squinting/looking down at that piece of paper....if he can actually read, he probably needs reading glasses to do it. And he’s too vain to wear glasses.

I thought it was a new article with actual proof. Disappointing.

Samantha Bee called this back in OCTOBER 2016.

Yeah, to be clear I don’t mind the fetish at all, it’s that this fetish is targeting something very specifically sore with his partner, which should be abundantly clear.

No, I’d say it’s incredibly shitty because it directly relates to her trauma specifically. Like, you can have your fetish be something like step-siblings... but maybe don’t see if you can play that out with your girlfriend, who has a step-brother who routinely made uncomfortable sexual advances.

Wow, man, I don’t know. Telling your partner, who has had a hysterectomy, that your thing is acting like you got them pregnant is incredibly shitty. At best that guy is dumb as hell, at worst he’s getting off on bringing up past trauma.

Ex-retail here, too. Big box home improvement center division. Tools were always a big one. Guys would bring back power tools beat to hell 6 months after purchase. I once had an argument with a guy who was trying to return multiple sheets of plywood that he had cut to the wrong size at home and wanted to swap for new…

No it was not. The original intent was always stated as being to “ensure [they] sell *high quality* merchandise and stand by it with *satisfaction* guarantee.”

I’m a retail manager and yeah, this all sounds about right. And people are so used to getting their way that it takes them a while to figure out that the answer is no and is going to be no regardless of how much they yell. Then they call me a bitch and tell me to go fuck myself because I won’t take back a hoodie from…

I’ve never understood how anyone could have the audacity to return boots they’d worn for years and expect brand new ones. I always cringe when people discuss it online. I’d be humiliated.

This is how we uggs lost the battle at birth. And we soldier on, with concealer, and contouring, and god help me, a little soft lighting now and then.
