I’m going to fucking die: “Rename your Anxiety Excitement.”

Yes, thank you!!
If we limit the word “concentration camp” to the Nazi Holocaust camps, then what to call the camps where the US incarcerated Japanese Americans?

I ordered five pairs of shoes on Amazon to go with a bridesmaid’s dress, because I was too busy to go shopping. and before I did I had to tell my husband- I am going to need your support with returning these! Otherwise we’re going to have five pairs of *silver* strappy heels, god help us.

One of the most disturbing art pieces I’ve ever scene is by this photographer who photographs the last meals of death row inmates like they’re spreads in a gourmet food magazine.

rudely described as a “pensioner,”

The first time I saw the photo, it looked white and gold, then it changed to blue and black and I’ve never seen it as white again. I would fall into the lark category, so that doesn’t check out either.

Forgive me if I stole this from someone, but...

Is anyone else getting a very “fall of Rome” vibe from all this nepotism, cosa-nostraing and playing dress up?

I just realized how difficult it is when you see the photos of a man like this who has killed someone and it forces you to wrestle with the humanity of it all. He is a human. And he did that. And how could he. But he did. And now he’s being marched around in a weird onesie and what is he thinking just then? He’s still…

When will white people address their culture of violence?

How was he radicalized? Where was he praying? Why didn’t neighbors report him?

Unfortunately, this will continue. As POC and women and gay people and trans people stand up for themselves as full citizens of this country, entitled white dudes will continue to feel like something is being taken away from them. It is sickening.

Anyone who is appalled by the tone of this email is adorably inexperienced when it comes to receiving emails from the executive leadership down to middle management and below. The genre is always self-congratulatory and filled with ‘team wins’ that mean nothing to the recipients, but the execs feel like ‘sharing the…

BTW, The Root offered a bit more context as it relates to the motives I was kind of surprised not posted, here.

New York City is also projecting that there will be 300,000 fewer tourists. Because people are hearing stories of CBP treating people like shit and deciding that it’s just not worth the risks. And the idea of forcing people to hand over passwords is terrifying for the business crowd, so business travel should be down…

I’m thinking of Adams’s Laws of Technology:

That sounds great! My parents have long term relationships but the divorce was not amicable and they never saw a point in trying to work out a friendship (or any type of contact outside of my birthday and similar events, making those events very loaded and less fun), unfortunately. It’s been 12 years!

Same with Nickelback - they wouldn’t be my first choice to listen to, but when you’ve got all these people defending an actual abusive ass like Chris Brown this week? I’ll go with the non abusive dudes who make generic music and sound like they are nice guys.

Yup. In fact, they sort of made allusion to that in The Young Pope. But it appears Scientology has a wider reach that I thought.

Finally! Sensible intelligent people who actually do some research.
