Seriously, this is getting to be too much.
Check on your GenX'ers who were raised on Rocky Horror and Clue and IT and later Muppet Treasure Island today. We are not okay.
RIP Tim Curry.
I’ve been thinking about this for quite a while, trying to find the right words.
As a woman and a marketer, in an often male dominated industry, it’s upsetting.
It’s upsetting to think about the number of people who had to sign off on this ad and it still went forward.
It’s upsetting to think that if there were a woman in a leadership role, who had the opportunity to speak up, she either didn’t say anything or if she did, she was called “woke” or “too sensitive”.
It’s upsetting to think that we live in a world where violence is funny and misogyny sells.
There are so many other ways that the point could have been made and this is the route they chose.
I can tell you one thing… my girls would never. If you’ve seen my Allison run her bar, you’d agree. At all of 5’2” and 20 years old, she takes no shit from anyone and her sister is the same.
The best way to use this ad will be as a tool to teach our young people (boys and girls) to do better than this when they’re put in a position to choose right from grossly wrong.
I’ve never pastored a church. Couldn’t pay me a jillion dollars to. Never been ordained. Have no desire to. The only paid staff position I’ve ever held in a church was as an aerobics teacher in our church gym. But how in heaven’s name a woman discussing a sermon on a podcast could be objectionable to some is beyond me and what I believe to be beyond scripture. If you have no idea what I’m talking about, good. Stay sane. If you do, I’ve lived a long time and this has been my observation:
Extremism, whether in conservatism or liberalism, whether in politics or religion, is never satisfied. It will always inch a little bit further. It’s a constant test of the purists.
@Labcorp I already spoke to someone in customer service and went back to where the blood was drawn. Everyone remembers doing the paperwork and drawing the blood. No one can find the specimens and nothing was processed. Nothing more to be done.
So when @LabCorp loses several vials of your blood and urine, where does it go?
This happened to me this week and I keep hearing more and more similar stories. I've had constant billing issues with them, but a whole basket full of my blood is... where exactly??
@dadarocks@RutgersU Every single university website is like this. It's nonsensical. UMD's course website actually CLOSES FOR A FEW HOURS ON SUNDAYS I AM SERIOUS 🤦♀️
Popped on Twitter (I'm old, that's what I'm calling it) to see everyone gunning for @kathleenmadigan. I love her. I want to have her back, but I'm not even a little bit Catholic and have no idea if she's totally wrong or somehow a little bit right or...
@AmericanAir flight Fri. - delayed. @AmericanAir flight tonight - delayed. No explanations.
In the last month two members of my family have had three canceled flights (one from @AmericanAir) and all other flights of several except one delayed. Is this the new standard in flying?
@AmericanAir Could you help me with info on 3163? The website just moved the landing time by 5 minutes every 5 minutes. Passengers aren't being provided with any information. There's no reason for the delay.
Anyone know what's happening at DCA Reagan National? Son's flight not being allowed to take off headed for DCA, but I'm not seeing a ground stop and there's not bad weather.
