Correct answer! It costs you quite literally nothing to wear your mask; but COVID could cost you everything.

My outside time also tends to be on common paths through parks, and there’s not always a place where you can get far enough off the path while a half-dozen people wander slowly by without masks anywhere in sight because “it’s safe if you’re outside”.

emotional, academic, smart-smart (AKA smartypants/smart-assery), street smart, savvy, evil smart, and je ne sais quoi

I wouldn’t surprised that alt-right jackholes are highly motivated to spread their awfulness in Mensa, considering they do it pretty much everywhere else they show up.

Emotional, academic, “smart smart”, Grumpy, Sneezy, Gluttony, and General Kardashian Knowledge.

I knew I was right to ignore them when I was a kid. I had an IQ test, along with a bunch of other tests because my mother thought I was epileptic and mentally ill. I’m not sure which was which, I have vivid memories of being timed while assembling random shapes into patterns and listing synonyms as fast as possible.

I’m in Mensa, because my mom went digging and submitted the IQ test from when I was tested into the gifted program in elementary school. I’ve never been to any meetup so I can’t refute any of her reporting, but it wouldn’t exactly surprise me. From a few of the member submitted things in the magazine it’s definitely

Any woman with a podcast probably gets death threats. 

And the fact that they think a wall is a good immigration deterrent. Clearly they are the dumb kinda smart

I invented my own group for super geniuses.

Cannot wait until the concept that there is a singular form of intelligence dies the death it deserves.

Yeah can’t say there’s any surprise there. The sole point of mensa is to give a false sense of superiority based on outmoded and flawed methods and beliefs. Pretty much the recipe for your average bigoted asshole.

Look, we get it, a crotchety old man will be elected president in 2020. We just don’t know which one yet.

They came for the dog fighting, and I didn’t speak up.

Stop it. Stop attacking women for having opinions, speaking out, and trying to make things better. What the hell happened to Jezebel? I’ve been around here for years, and recently the rhetoric has just become so hateful and isolating. This is ridiculous. 

Amen, Ashley. She is probably confronted by more women than men because she is such a disappointment to our gender and we smelled it from a mile away. She lied for a man, she treated the press as if they were garbage and she made pronouncements for a man who was using her.

And I find that very startling from a group of people that claim to be the champions of women empowerment.
