And made so many women feel pressure to wear insane clothes and especially shoes
Yes it had a very particular form of sex (if not body image) positivism and a broader but still limited version of power of lady friendship but on the whole, a bunch of wretched messages.
And also, Aidan so vastly superior to Mr Big.

Please I beg everyone who works at the Times to make reinstating the public editor a top priority for the entire workforce and the union. nytimes.com/2019/09/26/rea…
I don’t agree with their decision. But given the outage a two graph statement by Baquet and a perky reader center frame just doesn’t help. And there are talented people in the reader center. But more introspection is needed.
Also why couldn’t they describe him as working for “an intelligence agency” instead of CIA and had expertise on Eastern Europe instead of Ukraine?

Did those specifics help the average reader take him that much more seriously? Idk.

Well, I for one would like to see every US Senator be forced to vote on whether or not to impeach.
That will be a vote that will hang on them for the rest of their service and lives.
Further, given just what's come out in the past 24 hours, I don't think there's still a solid argument that forcing the Senate to vote will hurt Democrats in 2020. In any case, it's right thing to do, morally and constitutionally.

All right, y'all, it's time to tweetstorm the latest column, on affirmative consent.

[Cue wild cheers]

In the column, I draw the distinction between negative feedback systems, and positive feedback systems, which will be important as we go along.
A negative feedback system is like your thermostat. If it gets too hot or too cold, your thermostat tells the furnace "Stop doing what you're doing now, and do the other thing"--either turn on, or turn off.

@wdunlap “Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, #Trump dismissed his past appearances with #Epstein …Epstein’s personal little black book, leaked by an employee in 2009, contained 14 phone numbers for Trump, his wife, Melania, and several people who worked for him.”
vanityfair.com/news/2019/07/h…
@wdunlap “But even beyond #Trump’s own words further up, there’s a good deal of evidence the two were friendly social acquaintances at least through the early 2000s”

“Trump called #Epstein twice in November 2004, according to message pads seized”

Ơ. Ơ sohftyeolist™️ 🌺 🔞 @ CB au game!! come play
@softyeolist
Park Chanyeol, star quarterback on the varsity team receives an unexpected text from Byun Baekhyun on Homecoming game day.

✉️meet me in the unused bathroom on the 6th fl after class

Chanyeol frowns, hiding his phone from the teacher’s view.

[ a CB au game ]
[~*vote to play*~]
Chanyeol shifts in his seat. He’s in suit and tie, like the team wears on game days. He has so much to do before the game tonight.

“Chanyeol are you with us?” The teacher calls out. He sits up ramrod straight, wide-eyed, and nods.

When the teacher turns away, he types a reply:
Chanyeol tries his best to focus so he doesn't look like an idiot making faces at his crotch. His grades are important, if he doesn't do well he could lose his spot on the team.

But he glimpses down quickly.

✉️ you'll find out when you get here

Chanyeol swallows a sigh.

For all the #women who’ve ever felt disregarded, ignored, used, or silenced – you’re not alone.

It’s a #FolkloreThursday - #WomensDay story thread called

THE GOOSE GIRL
Or
“Blow Me (One Last Hat)”

IMAGE: Title card for "The Goose Girl", Robert Anning Bell, 1912
Once upon a time, a long-ruling Queen had a daughter (who we’ll call Gigi, which is long for GG which is short for Goose Girl) who she loved very much. Nice to see some genuine familial affection for once, generally it’s the parents causing the mayhem.
The time had come for Gigi to leave home & travel to a distant kingdom where her fiancé, the prince waited. As she was Queen’s only child, the departure was, emotional.
QUEEN: WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH
GIGI: Mom, calm down.
Q: [sobbing] I JUST LOVE YOU SO MUCH
