Whenever she started saying stuff I disagree with? OK, it’s not a perfect system.

Someone in one of the other threads articulated it better than I will, but my issue with her is that she is occasionally rude and obtuse but because she doesn’t raise her voice or talk over her guests its supposed to be okay because she is just asking questions.

I’m not a huge fan, and I think it’s because of the cultivated hesitation in her voice. This seems to be a bit of an NPR phenomenon - the interviewer who wants to avoid being ironic, but can’t disguise it perfectly, so the earnestness is a style rather than a content. She and others hesitate when speaking as if to say…

Also, the engineering calculation (“can I function in your absence?”) is different from the economic/business calculation: Does the time you save me in a day result in more value than your cost to the company? Even if her work only saved Musk 15 minutes a day, there’s a good chance that 15 minutes of Musk’s time is…

Her job no longer exists because she had the temerity to ask for a raise.

Elon, as intelligent and skilled as he is, didn’t realize her lack of utility in the prior 12 years that she worked for him (and did so in a capacity that she wasn’t fired for the myriad of reasons that an assistant would be fired, the most…

Apropos of nothing, I cannot state strongly enough how much this place misses you.  

Agreed - it’s so stupid to have Emily V. Gordon playing a dramatized version of herself in a movie she co-wrote with her husband about their real life.

My pale European blend of paleness wife and I, a Sri Lankan guy, are thrilled every time we see an interracial couple in the media. Doesn’t matter if it’s a Cheerios commercial or an episode of Happy Endings or Sense8 or Firefly, it’s good to see some kind of reflection of us, even if it’s not a perfect reflection.

Okay you guys can’t have it both ways. You can’t get frustrated that hollywood does’t show enough biracial relationships then get mad when too many show the characters dating white characters. Biracial relationships don’t exclusively include POC only being with other POC.

Yeah some alt-right motherfucker called me a “race traitor” the other day when he found out I (white lady) am engaged to an Indian man, so good to know this kind of bullshit attitude transcends political boundaries (NOT).

This piece is incredibly ironic. I’m an old, so I remember the ‘80s, when a huge issue was that no brown man could EVER be with a white woman. It was terribly sexist and racist, based on the theory that white women were irrevocably tainted by being with a non-white man, but white men could freely be with a brown…

I think Aditi knows this and this article is one step removed from “I don’t want to see brown men with white women-period”.

As someone in a biracial relationship, go blow it out your ass, you ‘traditionalist’ blowhard.

Or maybe you should let these artists express themselves as brown men in America.

It’s too bad you’re not tired of complaining about trivial, inconsequential bullshit.

We can’t, and that’s the point.

Yeah, it is.

The people constantly calling for bipartisanship are usually the same people constantly saying “both sides do it.”
