There are in fact plenty of places that could host the Olympics with little to no new infrastructure needed...If the IOC would ever allow combined city bids. Southern CA could easily do it, Nearly any 2 adjacent east coast cities could pull it off as well. Or just about any 2-3 cities in FL. The only big things you…

“It was mainly the guys for me this time.”

As far as our available evidence, one staffer has done this. I don’t know why Anna extrapolated to “staffers” in the last paragraph.

Yes, me too. And I actually run a small firm and our dress code is incredibly casual. But there is a time and place and a political convention is not it.

I’m with you. My wife and I may be old fashioned. We still try to dress nice when we go to the Dr. or fly in a plane as well.

I’m not going to crucify you for it. You are one good person with one very bad idea. I’m just going to tell you that thought is disgusting, and you need to mature.

“They come back different”

So you have to be a vapid, posturing intellectual to know who this artist is? Even people who know her because they’ve seen her art somewhere? Even people who know her because they saw that movie about her? Even people who learned about her in school?

well OBVIOUSLY worse for her. I can only hope she didn’t suffer too much or have time to feel much fear. But just hearing her friend talk about it...or the person she moved over for...I can’t imagine how helpless one would feel in that moment.

What a time to be alive!

I’m going to guess the implication was that they would just disappear naturally, not banning or executing them or whatever drove your outrage.

“Hortelano’s name shouldn’t be too unfamiliar to U.S. audiences; he competed at Cornell.”

So familiar with this guy from my days scouting all-ivy academic sprinters

I cannot agree more with Takei on this matter.

I’d say only a few of these pieces deserve to be totally dismissed.

Yeah, I don’t think the Saunders piece fits into this article’s thesis the way Stassa’s trying to force it to.

I interviewed at a job during a period of unemployment, and the manager interviewing me made some statement about how he should bring me out to talk to his employees to “show them how rough it can be out there.” Like, to shame them for complaining about their job, or something?

Got to disagree here. I thought the primary function of Saunder’s piece was to humanize, to put a few faces and stories to the blobs we assign as “Other”. It was an important reminder that no matter where you fall—right, left, cop, protester, Trump, anti-Trump—there are always people on the other side with their own…
