How do I know you won’t take my money to Applebees?

Completely agreed, from my call center experience.

That was a long, but very good read. Sitting here taking it all in. It was hard to read some of their stories. So many disgusting recounts.

The list of call centers that aren’t completely awful would be a very short or non-existent list. They are almost always a nightmare. Go talk to any HR person who is responsible for a call center and prepare yourself for a few hours conversation on what it is like.

Guess when Comcast isn’t fucking over customers, they’re fucking over female employees.

Fuck harassers.

I’m surprised the NRA even knows Parks & Rec, I guess there are no decent Duck Dynasty memes.

His spineless response (or lack thereof) in the first clip made me warm and tingly all over. That guy is nothing but an NRA fuckboy.

I am, too. I’m hard pressed to think of a more spineless coward who has represented Florida. His greatest talent is hiding behind the curtains pretending we can’t see him.

He thought he’d resurrect his presidential ambition by being the voice of reason in the GOP over gun control.

Kirsten Gillibrand was on Colbert the other night and she said that there’s basically what sounds like a pledge that politicians are starting to join (she has joined and she said Cory Booker has too) to ban corporate PAC donations. It’s a start.

I loved every bit of this. From Rubio trying to weasel out of saying he wouldn’t accept money from the NRA to trying to smooth talk his way through this and give standard campaign speech platitudes instead of real answers then getting his face cracked instead. Also, I’m sick of the whole “I’m a big believer in the 2nd

Funny thing is that they were respectful. They just didn t let the adults weasle their way out of answers.

I didn’t realize how fucking delicious it would be to see Marco Rubio getting ripped a new one by his constituents, especially the teenage constituents. I literally swelled up with pride when watching them challenge him and Dana the gun lady face to face.

Fuck respecting adults! Jesus Christ, what the fuck is wrong with people?! That bullshit is always used to justify authoritarianism, ironically by the same people screaming about government overreach.

Rubio’s sad broken face during this townhall gives me so much pleasure.

Mother Jones looked at mass shootings over the last 30 years to see if the good guy with a gun thing held up. Out of only 7 shootings where people with guns intervened in a mass public shooting: in 5 of the cases, the bystanders intervening were off-duty military/cops—so people who actually had training to deal with

I meant to say “Generation Z” not “Generation X”. Ignore the typo!

This needs all the stars. Life isn’t a goddamn action movie.

I just need to vent about this idiotic idea of arming teachers as a solution. While I have tremendous sympathy to those victims and their families who might see this as at least giving them a fighting chance to survive, it’s wrongheaded in so many ways. A military style assault weapon, like the AR-15 is a designed to
