Now you've done it! You've released the hounds. "Prosecution Aims to Keep Pecker Up." "Who Would Buy Stories ? Pecker Would."(a reference to a "Southernism" for the uninitiated)
Hope Hicks won the genetic lottery in at least 5 ways. There, I said what I was thinking. I never get tired of when she gets shown or one gets to listen to her in the media.
And yet, she has the moral character of a person who would repeatedly work for Donald Trump and aid him in furthering his goals. This internal evil detracts a lot from whatever shallow entertainment I find in seeing her appearance.
How bright can she be and take on Trump for a client? He doesn't pay his bills and and ridiculous percentage of people who represented him have ended up implicated in his schemes.
Well, she has navigated the pool of alligators in as deft a manner as I think is possible. Her job was advocacy and comm design and that is even more necessary for immoral people and their situations. She made some choices to get out for a time. Regardless, she was very young, talented and intelligent, and at least in the present seems morally uncompromised. And then there was a period in-between.
You can tell that Trump is worried about this trial by the fact that he hired a female attorney who is not eye-candy. Maybe his attorney for the defamation trial is competent (seems unlikely, based on statements attributed to her), but she also looks a lot like... Hope Hicks. One of his two attorneys now is a serious adult woman who looks like a grown-up and has a track record of real legal practice. Message: he is genuinely scared of the possible outcome.
There are many articles of the style of "If you don't think you have white privilege, then what about when ______ etc." They will make you re-question if you ever thought you had NO racism. At least I intend not to have racism.
There’s explicit racism, and there’s hidden bias. We pretty much all have bias, it’s a feature of the human brain, and is often revealed by precisely the sort of mental test you describe. The most difficult thing about bias is getting some people to admit that they have it (it’s universal!) and that it affects their behavior.
Not to brag (okay, maybe a little) but I just now saw a notification saying that one person subscribed to the Gene Pool because of my share! The specific share was not specified. But still. I didn't know that was a thing--obviously, it happens, I just didn't know that there was anything that tracked my success. Share away, fellow Poolers. Share away.
You write: "Matzoh stays fresh forever. Forever. Like the food of the Hebrews stumbling around in the desert." The food of the Hebrews in the wilderness was manna. Please see Exodus 20:16ff for a correction. It did not keep; it bred worms and stank, except for the extra collected for the Sabbath.
When you rashly declared that "matzoh stays fresh forever" surely you meant that matzoh has never been fresh and thus lasts in its original stale form forever.
Came across an unusual, as these tend to go, (and award winning) "flash" piece that seems oh so up-to-the-minute.
"You’re in love; it’s great, you swipe on your phone and order: the next day a Taylor Swift clone shows up at your house. It’s not awkward, it’s everything you want. She knows all her songs, and she sings them just for you. When you put your Taylor Swift to bed (early, you got a big day tomorrow) you peek over the fence into the Rosenblatt’s yard, and the lights are blazing. Your best friend Tina has three Taylor Swifts swimming in her pool. She has a miniature Taylor Swift she keeps on a perch, a Taylor Swift with wings. You’re so jealous. She’s not even paying attention to them, she’s too busy having sex with her other Taylor Swifts, they’re so fucking loud it’s disgusting. You hate Taylor Swift…" “Taylor Swift,” by Hugh Behm-Steinberg
Understand from an impeachable source, that the all-purpose unleavened bread, when properly aged, was also the first martial arts throwing weapon. Getting caught in the throat by a deftly thrown matzoh was not pleasant, it was said. And so it was written.
I'm watching CNN and they mentioned "Hope Hicks," to which I immediately added "and the Hot Licks." I'm old.
They also said that Trump was "watching Pecker" and I laughed like a 12-year old.
Jeff Tiedrich has a headline out: "Narcoleptic old dipshit awakens to look at Pecker."
Now you've done it! You've released the hounds. "Prosecution Aims to Keep Pecker Up." "Who Would Buy Stories ? Pecker Would."(a reference to a "Southernism" for the uninitiated)
As you clearly know, Tiedrich can be a hoot. And, as a 70+ ranting coot, I'm a big fan.

You thinkin' of Alina?
I thought Hicks was an employee.
I can fix her.
(I cannot actually fix her.)

I wish I could offer my white privilege to someone, I try to help many with things we have known or been exposed to that give us an advantage.

Yes, indeed.
Admiral Stavridis "liked" one of my tweets once. Perhaps X is evil, but maybe I can just use it until I need glasses.
or fellow Peckers

Yeah, never heard anyone say “it was like matzoh from heaven.”
When you rashly declared that "matzoh stays fresh forever" surely you meant that matzoh has never been fresh and thus lasts in its original stale form forever.
Apparently you have never seen 12-year-old moldy matzoh.
The key is keeping it dry, in its cellophane.

Speaking of the Columbia demonstrations, Mark Rudd, born June 3, 1947, is still alive and active. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Rudd?wprov=sfti1#Later_developments
Newspaper clipping about the Vikings is excellent. And note that the article, in a British paper, omitted the Oxford comma.
Amen, brother! I am proud of the Columbia students following in their spiritual parents' footsteps.
took Harvard subconscious racism poll. I am not racist. Nyah Nyah.
