“If you’re not even certain how they did it, how do you know you didn’t give consent?

And Yoda! I clicked on that Page Six link hoping for a picture of at least one of Howard Stern’s cats and didn’t get one. No I feel icky that I gave Page Six a click.

Yeah, Wendy’s framing felt really homophobic to me. “Oh, wouldn’t you be attracted to me (cuz gay people can’t just be friends with people of the same gender)? Didn’t my prodding help you come out (because bullying always makes people feel safe)?” This is not about you, Wendy.

What’s Brat supposed to say — “Yeah, I…

I make liqueur out of rhubarb and it tastes like happiness, especially in the middle of winter.

I mean, Christian Bale is a great actor. Why shouldn’t he don blackface to play Martin Luther King? And Sarah Paulsen would make a great Indira Ghandi! They’re great actors in serious roles so it should be perfectly OK!

THIS. People talk about helping the mentally ill but those who are reliant on the public health care system wait years for treatment. That treatment may be sub-par not because of the providers but the vast numbers of people trying to access such limited services. Like all of health care in America, if you’re lucky…

If you honestly believe that this is the first time VS has used a model under 18, I have a bridge to sell you.

Victoria’s Secret is parting ways with its “angels,” those decades of tall, incredibly thin, usually white, and undeniably gorgeous women

Yeah, I see nothing at all to indicate that this was gender-based. The headline makes it sound like they both said, “Don’t worry your pretty little head about it.”

They still call her post “a highly edited and manipulated video” that was shared to “inflame and damage rather than forward a necessary conversation about sexual harassment.”

Right. Because these fucknuggets are definitely interested in having those conversations as much as I’m interested in hearing more about my car’s…

Can we stop calling every pretty designer gown “iconic”? While the dress is gorgeous and looks great on both Brooke and her daughter, it’s not a particularly memorable look. It just doesn’t have the visual or societal impact of Cher in Bob Mackie (1988), or Halle Berry in Elie Saab (2002) at the Oscars or Jennifer…

My point is the chicken nugget substitution story is bullshit, for the reasons I stated. I’m defending the player, not the coaches.

Yeah, that’s a bullshit story. It makes no sense. The purpose of the pepperoni was to punish him for missing his practice or whatever by making him eat something he couldn’t for religious reasons. Unless chicken is also on the list of things not to eat, those aren’t a punishment. Those are a snack.

Except, it’s not an injury. It’s a chronic condition with flare-ups, which can be controlled by skipping something that has absolutely nothing to do with the game. Taking time off may help this flare up, but it doesn’t solve the problem of having a flare up at every major competition because of an issue that has…

If an HR person’s job is to protect from lawsuits, they should be doing everything in their power to uphold workplace equity. However, HR gets paid by the same people you do. They are not an independent body. They can only enact as much change as senior leadership will let them.

And yes, document, document, document.…

HR Director here. The company is required to investigate. The only person who has to talk to them is Ms. Cooper, their employee; actually, she doesn’t have to either, but her non-compliance will be taken into account in the investigation. The company has no jurisdiction over Mr. Cooper, the birdwatcher. Even if the…

Employment at will is an old concept. I’ve been in HR 20 years and it was an old concept before I even started. A brief Google search showed that it likely had roots in the 19th century. Almost all U.S. states are employment at will.

So, you never go to the doctor, or get prescriptions because it’s no one’s business what your medical history is? Enjoy your leeches and vapors.

I wasn’t asked about my medical history when I got the shot. I got it early because I’m in a high risk group, but no one asked me what my risk factor was; I signed up and they…

Yeah, this won’t survive a court challenge. Your employer can only force you to be vaccinated if you’re going to be working on the premises, and that’s only because we’re in a world-wide pandemic. An employer has a right to keep its workforce safe from known health threats.

The school would never be able to argue that…

Don’t know how body positive you can be when you’re working with Dolce and Gabbanna —racist and homophobic designers who don’t create fashion for women over a size 10.
