Nah, the people yelling “bye” to him were several rows back from where he was filming. A lot of people keep to themselves while flying and might not have known what was going on at a different section of the plane. If I was on a plane and saw someone videotaping I would be trying to hide from the camera too

Non-buffet related question: what actually happens if someone reports something that was shared “off the record”? Is it just a matter of conscience or are there actual consequences? Also I guess I always assumed off the record was for circumstances in which the source’s job/personal security/business interest were in

It’s strange to me that Swinton would approach someone with whom she seemingly didn’t have much of a relationship with to find out what the problem was. Not having social media isn’t an excuse. She’s emailing, so she clearly has Internet access and Google is your friend. Seems like maybe she heard she was caught in

I think I’m more blinded by the fact that they helped run a campaign targeting their opponent for doing the exact same thing they’re doing.

I’m sort of hoping this enrages Trump supporters so much that this is the thing that makes them stop supporting Trump.

omigod thank you so much for this I thought I was alone too!

I totally get what you’re saying. The tricky part here is it would be pretty difficult to bar someone from office based on an undiagnosed condition. But hypothetically say there’s some sort of physical exam they have to go through (hey, I had to get one for an HR job but apparently the White House is less discerning)

Likewise I feel like any chances of me quitting smoking in the next four years are shot

I do not concur. I’m not sure he’s ever been diagnosed. Thing is these days is ADD/ADHD symptoms can be pretty manageable in adulthood as long as you take your meds and develop coping strategies. Think of it like any other disabling condition—lacking in one area forces you to compensate in other ways, like how it’s

Conservative intellectuals are siphoned off to high-paying think tanks leaving little motivation to stay in the education system as opposed to being “murdered” by colleges

Besides creepy, I’m mostly bothered that he thinks anyone is buying the whole “blind trust because my kids are taking over the business” thing while simultaneously getting his children security clearances and trotting them around like political show ponies.

I feel like we are in the zombie apocalypse and they’re all smiling so brightly it makes me want to shake them and say WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU

I’ve never seen this show but am horrified to see Amazon getting hints from my gas lighting boyfriend’s playbook

Agreed. Therefore I think a ban in Germany is total horseshit.

I wasn’t even close to suggesting women are wearing them ironically.

Jezebel may not be the place to argue that women aren’t making a choice for themselves, just saying.

Except for when burqas are worn by women to reclaim them in order to express both pride in being a feminist AND a Muslim.

I’m not arguing any of those things, which is why I said it doesn’t inform my entire experience as a woman. I don’t think any single experience can, which is what I think you’re getting at with your post. Treating any perspective as THE thing that defines what it means to be a member of such a large and wide-ranging

Yeah, everything about this makes me feel icky. Like, I don’t want this to be a moment in history where we look back and are like THIS WAS OUR MOMENT TO STOP THR SECOND COMING OF HITLER but on the other hand if things had gone another way we would all be losing our minds of the electors were protest voting against

Following your lead of comments to get flames, I think Tom does have a little bit of a point. Getting stuff put inside me certainly doesn’t inform my entire experience as a woman, but I do get overwhelmed sometimes by sex with dudes because it’s like yeah, something is going inside my body at a point that I can’t even
