I never read anything terrible about what AA got paid in comparison to JLaw. All the media talked about is how JLaw got paid less and it was an injustice, but Bradly talks specifically about Amy. So what’d I miss? How extra terribly did she get paid while everyone only talks/ed about JLaw’s pay?

And, at least imo, male comedians do a ton of self-deprication also. It’s a humor style across the board. The ideas/concepts/commentary expressed in “insults” can be funny but it’s hard to do that without taking shots at OTHERS. Way funnier to use yourself. Otherwise you just sound like a bully.

AA may suck, fine, but it doesn’t work that way at airlines. (That a pax could be bumped under false pretenses like this.) This came from the crew, with support from the captain. This removal didn’t come from the agents. Trust me, flight attendants wouldn’t put on a show like this for agents - and especially not for…

What a swell supporter of women Chris Smith must be! I wonder what other kinds of exploitation against women he is an activist against!!

I actually made my husband meet two of my exes. He doesn’t speak to any of his but I’m friendly w most of mine. Obvs his and my relationships tend to end differently. Anyhow I didn’t want him to build up these images of them being bigger/better/whatever or us having chemistry together (in the occasional event I went…

Yikes. Am I a creepy weirdo then? I have one ex whom I dated when we both lived on a different continent. It was a friendly break up. We just weren’t in a circumstance to make it work at the time. In random coincidence, his wife and my husband are from the same (other) country and we live in their country, on a…

Thanks. You bring tears. Obviously this is somethig I carry around. I appreciate your words!

And, at BEST, she wants anyone who ends up in such a horrible condition to wait around staring at the ceiling and wearing diapers for the 1 in a million chance the doctors are wrong, instead of the 999,999 in a million chance they are right.

I have seen someone languish for 25 years. I grew up with that person wishing for death, but I was too young and immature to understand what he was going through, too young and immature to see that **I was the one who did not want him to go**. As an adult now, I am relieved, for his sake, that he finally passed -…

Read up, don’t just regurgitate out-of-context cherry-picked sound bites. “non-voluntary” refers to poeple, say, in extended comas. You can hardly “volunteer” to be euthanized is you’re brain-dead now can you?

I agree with you 100%. That “study” is a carefully cherry-picked selection of bias-supporting statsitcs (and not all well supported if you follow the sources). What a douche bag.

You guys. The link to the study posted below...do some further research. Yes, I’d expect the source to be respectable, but the research (if you read it) has clearly done a search for items that meet his pre-existing conclusion.

It’s funny because this is, possibly, how I kept my surname in the end. When Mr. Bam brought up the name change, I was undecided, but expressed my intense sadness over the idea of giving up my name.

I had to turn it off, because of exactly what you describe so well in your posts here. I did not dig it.

I just have to say, a flight attendant colleague just told me a fun story of having him on board and pretending she didn’t know who he was, precisely because he was kind of like, “Wait - you don’t know who I am? how is that possible” (Not an actual quote, and not in a demanding, DYKWIA ass kind of way, but in a…

It purported that I ...“deserve to know the facts.” (...Every pregnant woman should know the facts. But they should know the right ones.

I'm a little disappointed, but I hope to be very wrong.

Personally I use Storyist, and I really like it. I found it more intuitive than Scrivner.

NOPE.

These fucking people.
