Ugh. Every day he reminds me more and more of my horrible, awful, no good, very bad former boss.
Let’s not forget Conway defended Trump’s pussy-grabbing comment. She’s also violently anti-choice, even in the case of rape.
Instead of making the bizarre comparison to other (male) members of the Trump Administration, consider the fact that no administration in recent history has lied with the frequency and audaciousness of the Trump administration.
Yes he would have. It may have bordered on unprofessional but he didn’t roll his eyes because she is a woman. He did it because he is tired of this person spewing bullshit. Her gender has nothing to do with it.
I love how right wing women weaponize sexism. Fuck them, they voted trump, they couldn’t give less of a shit about women who aren’t white and rich, and even then they’re disposable.
Yeah, I think he might. I see this as an erosion of self-control that comes of dealing with mendacious liars (of which the Trump admin has many). I assume that most of them roll their eyes at Spicer hourly. And some shake their heads...
He didn’t roll his eyes at you because you are a woman.
Is it undermining when the person you’re undermining has no clue what he’s talking about? Einstein wasn’t “undermining” physics and mathematics.
While I wholeheartedly agree that we SHOULD have universal single payer healthcare, I just cannot get on any ACA repeal bandwagon.
“I was trying to explain that all hospitals are required by law to treat patients in need of emergency care regardless of their ability to pay and that the Republican plan does not change that,”
I’ve been thinking a LOT about this lately (and when I say “lately”, I’m talking heavy rumination on and off for about 5 years). Anyhow, an idea has formed and keeps taking shape, but it’s this: our current culture (especially the last 20 years, i.e. the internet/tabloid years) is obsessed with attainment. I’m not…
I read an article a while ago, the title was something like “What if all I want is a mediocre life?” The woman who wrote it talked about how she is content, but seems to be surrounded by people who are always striving for something more.
I was thinking about this same thing earlier this week - I started a new job recently and it’s fine but the main reason I changed jobs at all was to get health insurance. I have basically no career ambition. Sometimes I think maybe I’m in the wrong field but I can’t think of one that would be much better. For me,…
Right there with you, with the added (shitty) surprise that I thought that when I became an adult I’d be super goal-oriented - I was a massive overachiever at school and had high hopes for myself... And then... Meh.
Are you goal oriented? I think I figured out that the reason that I’m frequently jealous of other people’s successes isn’t because I want to be pregnant, get married, write a book, etc., but because I envy their ability to set a goal and then achieve it. I own a house and I have a job. But I don’t really have any…
I posted this is in the initial AHCA post, but there were 600+ comments so I’m sure it got lost. I just wanted to share my experience today in DC because it was so utterly sickening:
The reason no one mentions the dead man’s crimes is that they are irrelevant to the way he was treated while in custody.
I have said this before and it never stops being true: Donnie sounds like someone trying to have a serious conversation on a ball of cocaine. I really can’t listen to him talk, and when I read the shit he said, he sounds like a puppy that has too many shiny objects and noise makers around it.
Not enough of a fuss has been made about Ivanka going to Berlin for the W20 summit. She has no qualifications to work in policy, international law or norms, diplomacy, or women’s rights. She has no reason to be the representative for our country, other than being the daughter of the president. She is not a fucking…
