That seems like something to push back on, if you think they might later say "but you teach all these classes online now! isn't that enough accommodation???"
intellectual (as an offensive term)
That upsets me so much. And is definitely a situation where I can't see beyond my own borders. I never got it with W -- I
want
the president to be the smartest person in the room! Ugh. So many things to be ugh about, I don't know why that's the one that stood out for me.
In fun news, I went this afternoon with my mom to see a taping of a local show where singing groups compete. I always like seeing behind-the-scenes stuff, and the group was good! As you might imagine, most of the audience was their families.
I want the president to be the smartest person in the room!
Yes! But then again, I'd also much rather have a beer with someone brilliant, so I'm not sure that test was actually
for
me.
Gud, if your friend is saying that everyone on the Left should passively allow Trump to do whatever he wants without objection or comment, I'd quote Edmund Burke at him:
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
Timelies all!
Help, I have a cat on my lap. Well, I did, until Mr. S(aka Mr. Grabbyhands) scared her away. Sigh.
Hil, I'd push back on that too. Don't let that stand as is on your official review.
Yeah, get it in the record that that is not your understanding that online teaching is an accommodation and you did not ask for it as such, at the very least.
Watching last night's Scandal, and the one thing that made me think, "But that would
never
happen!!" is about the electoral college.
Jesse, I watched it last night too. I agree that would not happen wrt the electoral college. They would likely
pick someone, anyone from the same party rather than the opponent.
Also, I'm pretty sure
Jake had something to do with the assassination since he was missing when the results were coming in,
and I'm also suspicious of
Vargas's wife for no other reason than I think all that time spent on whether or not she had her cellphone is going to be important.
Got an email tonight that if you donate $25 to Elizabeth Warren's 2018 Senate campaign, you get an official "Nevertheless, she persisted" shirt. So I'm probably going to have to do that.
One of saddest things about leaving Massachusetts is that she isn't my Senator anymore!

Agreed on all points, sj.
