Uh yea thanks for your input.

That, and they’re the types that blame Obama or the Dept of Education or whatever for some weird thing going wrong in their kid’s school. So burn it all down!!!! And they probably think charters and vouchers sound fancy.
I told my parents about it and they’re going to take my kids. My parents don’t spend enough time with them, and are obsessed with their dog, and dogs in general (to the point where my dad posts weird sappy dog stuff on FB all the time). So I thought it was a good match. I’ll be staying home.
I think she’s more of the type that’s like, I don’t give a shit what “all” the schools do. As long as there are vouchers for rich people to use for private schools. Because why should rich people pay for public education? Also, bootstraps. Those poor people have shitty schools because they’re dumb, their kids are…
I know, it’s maddening. It’s like talking to a person who’s going “NAAAHAAAHNAAA” in the most annoying voice possible.
This is one of the original reasons I vote Democrat and can’t stand Republicans. Because most of them seem to be like “har har, those stupid rules about a spotted owl are keeping us from doing biznizz! Damn hippies!”
I like this take on it, since it’s less terrifying. But I worry that with Trump, we get all the crazy and possible war-starting AND we end up with the same agenda we would under Pence. I know Trump contradicts the Republican establishment occasionally when he talks and tweets, but when it comes to actually doing…
Yep. A Fox News talking point that gets repeated by old ladies on FB is that Obama took ALL the vacations and played ALL the golf.
That, and isn’t it also sort of a subtle version of “All Lives Matter?” That’s what I’m seeing from people on FB who aren’t full on alt-right, more just generic Fox News watchers. They’re VERY concerned anytime someone focuses on race in any way.
I think her shitty resume is the much bigger problem. She was on TV, that’s about it. WTF qualifies her to work in this capacity? And why would I even ask that at this point?
I should clarify that I’m just a lawyer- I can hardly add. But my husband is an engineer working in space stuff so he balances us out.
My little girl is going with friends today because she has the day off and I don’t. But at least she’s seeing it. I assume we’ll do a screening here at work once it’s on DVD— we’re a space industry company.
My 11 year old daughter, who has my slight build but lots of muscle from gymnastics, is 5'2" and weighs about 93 lbs. My just turned 13 year old son is 5'4", 113 lbs. Just for reference. They both appear pretty average compared to most peers.
At the risk of doxxing myself, I actually know the new CEO, who is female like the one before her. I figured this was coming knowing her background— she was their general counsel and before that only worked in law firms doing transactions. This has been huge for her career. But I feel so badly for all the…
It’s baffling to me, but their stores are often in upscale locations. We have one in our little beach suburb of LA, and I saw one in Malibu a couple weeks ago. No adults who live here would shop there, but maybe the teens and weekend tourists? Or maybe that’s what they got wrong with their business strategy- maybe…
I think you’re doing it right. Traveling in your 20s doesn’t have to cost much. But you can travel again before your kids move out. We took ours (10 and 12) to Thailand this year. Costa Rica, Belize, London and Paris the years before that. We’ll be in Vietnam and Cambodia while they’re in sleepaway camp for two weeks…
I did that— walking along, all of a sudden my ankle buckled outward, sprained, and then also an avulsion fracture on one side. I didn’t stay off it but instead got on an international flight a few hours later. Didn’t work out so well— I shoulda stayed home and watched Veep.
And I imagine they’ll be replaced by recent college grads from religious or Southern schools whose parents have connections to ultra-conservative politicians or wealthy Trump donors. Total shitshow.
I can imagine the comments section on any FB article about this right now. TRUMP is OUR president because KILLARY lost benghazi just ask those people in Haiti, Donald J. Trump is going to make our country GREAT AGAIN so go to your safe space blahblahblah.
Or when the nanny or housekeeper gets TB and coughs blood on them. You can live behind gates but somebody’s gotta clean the kitchen, and it’s sure as shit not going to be the rich lady.
