STOP I refuse to believe this is real

But you are, Blanche!

What do you mean? I often invite my spouse to my office so people can take our picture as we reload paper into the copy machine.

You left out the best part of the profile: that she sometimes brings Steve Mnuchin to Soul Cycle with her, makes him sit on the bike behind her, and then blows him kisses in between songs.

This is the same question I had w/r/t Mrs. Carson making the furniture decisions about HUD and Mrs. Pompeo keeping an office at CIA.

The money picture: He’s obviously at his workplace, what is she doing there? Seriously, none of my family members hang around my workplace. The closest any of them have come is to wait for me in the lobby. It’s very strange for anyone to have family around while working.

The truly ridiculous thing about that assertion is that most of these fools are in their late-50's to mid-70's, so they absolutely remember the anti-war movement of the late 60's and the nuclear disarmament movement of the early 80's, both of which were led by students.

Ooo that’s the perfect description. Like I bet he looked pretty much the same in his 30s.

I figure that the average demographic that still actually watches local news, as opposed to getting their information online, also watches Fox anyway.

Absolutely he should fuck off. But my first thought was “that ‘joke’ really just makes you look stupid.”

Right, if you spend 30 minutes talking to someone and they don’t even answer, you might be doing learning wrong.

Even beyond the bigoted message this sent, the crux of this joke has an unintentional grain of truth about the problem with so many in power right now. I will highlight:

I am horrified that the post would be taken as anything other than a dig at myself

This. I had the pleasure of meeting a wonderful British couple on vacation and had dinner with them. To my surprise, they admitted voting leave in Brexit; I didn’t take them for leavers. But they talked at length about their initial reasons, and how they have since realized it’s the worst mistake they’ve ever made. I…

Exactly.

You and I had a very reasonable conversation about gun control. We debated, we had citations, we respected each other. I thought I very reasonably explained why your salient points like the source of the NRA’s monetary contributions got lost due to your tone. I completely agreed with you about how we should parse…
