That’s the thing, they’re not protesting something being ignored or genuine bigotry, they’re protesting people being taught shit that actually went down that those same people were allowed to ignore because it wasn’t talked about or was whitewashed in their educations.

Summary of Diana’s story:

It’s not compulsory to be on your parents’ insurance until you’re 26. It’s an option meant to help young people, who sometimes are still looking for a FT job with benefits, stay covered. My two younger siblings were both eligible under the ACA to stay on my parents’ plan until 26, but both were working at full-time…

the law doesn’t compel her to be covered by her parents’ plan, it just allows her to be - she could get a job and pay into her own coverage like she wants everyone else to do

Good. If they can’t keep their paperwork straight, they can’t prove that money is owed to them.

The conservative immigration policy is a con.

Also, I want to post this image for those not entirely sure of the status of the Roma mentioned in the article.

That map, because it’s not actually based on population, is completely pointless, since large swathes of red in the middle are basically empty, with maybe a couple thousand people per county. This map gives you a much better sense of how that balance actually works; county-by-county, with height of the county showing…

Of course there’d be a two year delay. Make it just past the midterms, but with enough time before the next presidential election that the goldfish will forget who’s responsible, with a helping hand from conservative propaganda telling them all the resulting problems are the Left’s fault and/or the fault of the…

Wanted to add two things to this. Let’s assume it legitimately took her an hour to choose her seat. And let’s assume she legitimately could have made $10,000 in that hour. For the average American (working 37.5 hours per week, 50 weeks per year) that comes out to an annual salary of $18,750,000.

The right considers her a traitor, and the left hasn’t forgiven her for the crap she peddled on Fox News.

I don’t know but I’d love it if David Schwimmer played Tommy Mottola.

It’s a show I would watch
47-year-old Mariah ditching high school with her 16 y.o. girlfriends.
Arguing with her 35-year-old Mom.
Mariah secretly convinced she could pass for 16.
Everyone playing along.

It’d break Twitter.

I hate people that value their free time at the same rate their employer pays them (especially if they aren’t turning down work in exchange). Your time sitting on the couch isn’t worth your hourly rate.

I’m a former Nick Carter fan girl too...there was a reality show and he was a mess for a while, had his own addiction problems I believe, and there were heavy rumors of his abuse by their gross former manager when he was younger. He seems to be doing much better now though, embarrassingly I watched him on Dancing With…

I was more a Nick girl than an Aaron, he was a little kid and just out of my age demographic (the 3 year age gap between us was an insurmountable chasm for the mature teen I was!). But fuck, meth is a helluva drug, it’s aged him terribly!

Yeah, I was just thinking the same thing. If you think her schtick is all an act, this is proof that, nope, she’s just an absolutely awful person. She is one of those people who is incapable of a normal human interaction. She was mildly inconvenienced and temporarily lost $30. Her initial tweet (which was itself…

Ok, is she overvaluing her time by several orders of magnitude, or does it just take her waaaaaaay too fucking long to book a simple fucking plane ticket?

Is she really expecting people to buy that? I guess people who follow her for real and not as a joke do.

I think she’s trying to say, in her own unique shitstain style, is because of the kind of money she makes for speaking engagements, that even if she only spent a fairly small amount of time on making this reservation, her time is SOOOOOOOOO valuable that it cost her $10,000.
