Possible! But they're going for a strong black excellence talented tenth campaign so I'm going with she married the stockboy and has been trying to find him to get an annulment, i.e. something that will keep her socially in play.
a baby takes her out of play, imo. But it's tv and they're pretending she would even be there so anything is possible.
(I really think they're too invested in Peggy and them to give her a secret baby. BUT, given all the drama that made Peggy's storyline even make it this far, they could slip it in there.)
If anyone gets compromised, it’s Gladys. The maid’s revenge. And that scheming fool.

And there it is. Every hire and every denial in academia comes down to this.
Listen, I’m a nobody in the grand scheme of academic things. But I am a Black woman with — depending on who you ask — a touch of the sight OR keen attention due to trauma. Nothing was more clear to me a few years into the game than this.
Winning or losing was always gonna be zero sum to somebody and if that somebody has any power over you, you will feel it. Your wins can be turned into losses and vice-versa.

I totally get that the vast majority of people think this way. I easily concede. I’m just too old and/or tired to be uncomfortable for a long time so we can hang-out when we are…traveling to a place to hangout.
This is just the way that I am. I don’t need all that much watering and feeding. And I look at transport as utilitarian. I get it done as efficiently as possible and see you at the destination.
In my view, we need to line up single file, have our boarding passes ready, not change seats once boarded, sit quietly, and get there already.

I am going to tackle this one quickly for a couple reasons. One, these replies have been going steadily for a couple of days. All from men. All of them. So let’s do some light discourse analysis…
The primary document features a woman’s first person account in an area that overlaps with her professional expertise. Based on what that document provides, this woman is a trustworthy subject.
Nowhere in that primary document does the woman describe her actions as fraught.

A non-expert but generally trustworthy reader assigned “incredibly fraught” to the primary text.

A horrible call in favor of home team who converts to a TD is some bullshit
(This is one of the reasons I stopped watching football. I know when I am being scammed.)
Ain’t called nothing all game and suddenly they call blinking.

More seriously let me say something. I theorized years ago that info societies threatened masculinity by attaching economic value to femininities characteristics, like social ties and discourse.
Clawing that back is how we get to a place where feminized qualities like basic care work is so passionately diminished that many people will burn down public health to avoid it.

As a woman I have done more strategy than this just to decide how many tampons I should pack for a road trip. This is not a cross to bear.
It’s wild that men think that’s a lot of planning.
I map all the good gas stations before I drive longer than two hours
