Spot on. I was just talking to my daughter about this. Last year, we were cool with the guy because he was bickering with Trump, and it's easy to embrace the "enemy of my enemy is my friend" narrative. Fact is, he's still a shit, and he absolutely needs to be held accountable for his actions

I've been wondering the same thing. Crucify me for appearance shaming, and I'll willingly take my lumps, but that can't be her natural face, can it?

I'm a high school teacher, and I've buried a lot of kids over the years. Addiction is a mother fucker. A former student of mine, who is now a nurse who specializes in addiction and recovery, says it best: we are all just a bad move or two from a similar fate.

I have a friend who served in the army, and here's his take on the necessity for guns: you need three guns: a rifle and a shotgun for hunting, a reliable pistol just in case, and that's it. They're tools; they're means to an end. He always carries his pistol for whatever, but the only time he discharged it outside of…

And Campbell's soup, presumably

I'm old enough and lucky enough to have been able to fully appreciate the entire arc of the career of Venus and Serena. It's mind boggling to think that Serena is still at it at the age of 39. She's the goat, and I honestly die a little inside when she loses because we all have to admit that Father Time is undefeated.…

Portillo never disappoints

The Trump assembly line is full of empty headed assholes, and it's a sad indictment of american politics that any of these toads has a platform. They have no values beyond themselves, they have no principles, and their only trick is "owning the libs," yet a distressing number of people keep talking about them as…

Anton Shreve: I'm not starring your comment because I'm pretty sure that I'd also be bringing that shitbag out of the greys, but hot damn, you done good.

I like it. Melt that fucker down and recast it as a statue of Winnie the Pooh. When they piss and moan about the statue, out comes Winnie. It's still the statue, but it's a different shape.

I wasn't able to upload the video, but they definitely enjoyed a romp in the snow

Too close for comfort.

Sound policy. I get that kids want to stay in touch and be a part of our lives, but I make it abundantly clear that they have to wait until after graduation night. Granted, I get a flood of requests that night, but they can definitely wait. My current dept member doesn't seem to care, and I don't like her enough to…

Right. Why would you need to announce your intentions? So stupid. Between that and people who are on camera texting or doing other things, I just shake my head. One of my dept members was doing Christmas cards during a meeting. Why in the blue hell wouldn’t you just shut off the camera?

Here’s a couple of pics of the ladies having a go at it in the Wisconsin snow.

I feel you on meetings. I'm a teacher, and I've lived on my computer for the past year. I will always be on camera for my students because I think it's important that they see me. If they're writing a reflection or working on an assignment, I turn off the camera and mic so that I don't distract anyone. That's for my…

Right. The acceptable use policy seems pretty subjective. For instance, colleague who was a building sub got fired for befriending current students on Facebook. I know a colleague right now who has consistently done so. When these kids ask why I won't confirm their friend requests, I tell them that I'm not Mrs. B. I…

In a lot of ways, this is a "There but for the grace of God go I" moment. During the protests this summer, I sent some correspondence to local officials, and I used some of the same delicate language (sorry, Grandma). Before I hit send, I happened to notice that the email had my school email address rather than my…

Can confirm.

Right. Fuck everyone associated with enabling this little shitbag
