This goes for anything, pretty much. It’s a wonder we don’t see a lot more blood on competitive cooking shows.

Oh and I fired the kids who started the stand.

I guess another implication could be, “yeah I go here but I was also accepted by there. Sweatshirt came in the packet.”

Try adding an MBA. Money people and managers seem to think that makes you one of them.

“You may think that’s a hell of a long time. Personally, I think that’s a hell of a bird.”

I “heard” that title to the tune of “Immigrant Song”

A fucking rhino!?

How many people did it take to get him on the gurney?

Hunh! Good God, y’all!

The other dude is pretty damn good in The Artful Dodger, by the way. He’s playing close to his actual age (deported to Australia, became a skilled ship’s surgeon but still uneducated) but still looks like we imagine the little cutpurse, it’s a winning combination.

While you’re at it, why should He have any problem with trans people in the first place? Who are we to say He doesn’t intend the full variety of sexes and genders, just as He seems to enjoy making an infinite variety of species, including about a million species of beetles?

He’s not surprised. Just disappointed, in the small-mindedness of people. Or maybe that’s just me who’s disappointed. He’s probably busy playing with His friends on Planet Beetle.

I don’t disagree with you myself, but remember the apple? According to Godologists that was just the first of thousands of tests, including your impure thoughts last week. It’s kinda his thing. So I see no problem using it to get through to them.

As I said, it’s not a mistake, it to test us, to be sure we’re following His edicts to love one another and judge not.

Of course to the false “believer,” hating and judging has become second nature and their “Christian” lives are the deepest blasphemy.

But to a decent person who’s already beginning to question the false doctrine in which they’ve been raised, it opens a chink in the wall.

Also post-hysterectomy if it includes the ovaries. Sorry bitch, still a woman.

Personally my definition of a woman is anyone subject to misogyny.

I suppose it’s wrong, because attacks on transmen are also rooted in misogyny, but that’s the misogynists’ fault.

For the religious: “Sometimes God puts a soul into a body that doesn’t match. The soul is sacred, and until it can be released from the body permanently, we owe it to those souls to recognize and help them. God doesn’t make mistakes, it’s us He’s testing.”

Some aren’t able to spell it right once

As a hiring manager, how many times have you picked a candidate, called them, and they’ve decided against being hired by you? That’s you, having to go look for a shopping cart. Of course anyone who is going to write the note also said thanks in person. But if they write to remind you of the good points in their interview, maybe address some omission, you know they didn’t thank you to your face but mock you in private.

It’s also a simple signal that you are still interested in the job. You’d certainly never send one of you weren’t. From the hirer’s perspective, it makes their job easier by not calling someone and having them turn it down.

It’s perfect for that. Also, “did you lose my fucking email, you incompetent boob? Here it is again.” but couched as politeness.

There’s a completely transactional reason for post-interview “thank you” notes, whether you’re applying to college or for a job. It’s to remind the person, who’s probably interviewing a lot of applicants, of your existence and your qualifications. A good one includes a reminder of any parts where you think you shone. And if there’s something you thought of later, it’s okay to add that.

If their ego makes them take your thanks as sincere sucking up, fine. But you really do it for yourself, and the “thank you” is pro forma.

Of course this assumes you still want the position after having sat the interview. If not, feel free to ghost.

“Cue” is technically more correct, as they would feel called to respond the way an actor is called to respond to their cue, or a pool ball reacts to being struck by the cue.

But considering they’re lining up in a queue with all their comments, I’ll allow it.
