Thank Christ, the Supremes managed to rule correctly on the case about employment discrimination and LGBTQ+ people.
My whole life just flashed before my eyes! I gotta get me a life!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yes! Such good news. I haven't read the article yet.

That was wonderful news to come back inside to, and Gorsuch writing the the majority opinion was a big surprise to me!
A friend of mine was the victim of a racist incident, which she posted about and a friend of hers responded with "All lives matter." "Don't let one bad apple cloud your judgement."
"Bad apples should be removed from the barrel before they can spoil the rest." Unfriend

"Bad apples should be removed from the barrel before they can spoil the rest."
That's the thing. Saying "only a bad apple" misses the whole point of the metaphor.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
anyone know what book it is that has a bit about two young girls being taken to a screening of Gone with the Wind where I think Mitchell is going to be? I am super bad at remembering books I've read.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The Osmonds fucked that up for everyone!!
Also, you don't need any context, but a higherup just sent a message that said, "I trust Jesse, that document is ready for proffing." [sic]

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Ha!
I do not know that book.
I also don't know the Osmonds song but I am ok with blaming them
Here's a thing I don't understand. Why do my customers ask me to work with another group in their company to fix a problem the first group found. Why can't they just talk to each other and sort it out? I am literally just passing information from one to the other, I don't know what they need to do!

Also, why won't the one department in my company that apparently has anything to do with this problem answer my emails, if only to say that they don't know either

The Osmonds song goes, "one bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch, girl"....

Ooh, I haaaaaate that. In my experience, it means you are trusted, which is good overall, but I hate doing it!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
oh, I hate when I end up being an intermediary and passing information from one person/group to another ... it takes more time and leads to misunderstandings (anybody remember playing "telephone"?)
In other news, here's an old PSA for those who see something that looks like a tooth.
