“That stimulus he put in place, it didn’t help private sector jobs, it helped...”
– Mitt Romney, detailing his plan for jobs in Craig, Colo. Please tell me how firing 145,000 Americans would be good for the economy – not that Romney’s claim is correct. Under the Obama administration, public sector employment has dropped, but private sector employment has grown by 760,000 jobs...

6. The best book you’ve read in the last year.
A Visit from the Goon Squad, Jennifer Egan. One of the few books that manages a potentially gimmicky narrative structure without forgoing character.  That the structure—which is sort of a series of short vignettes that flow backwards from one character to another around several main figures—is based on character and not plot device made all the difference. I read it with less a sense...

WHEW
Okay we FINALLY got through to my dad. He talked to the mechanic and decided the repairs that are needed are basically regular maintenance and that the car is still a good deal, SO WE’RE GETTING IT. And my grandma is going to call me as soon as she’s dropped off the current owner.

astringofpearls replied to your post: I am a bundle of nerves right now. The guy we… Is there someone else who can go with them? No, and I just spoke to her at the garage and apparently there’s a few things wrong with the car so we’re trying to get my dad on the line but of course he’s not picking up either. :(((((((((

I am a bundle of nerves right now. The guy we bought the car from is taking it to my grandparents’ house this afternoon, but first they’re having my grandmother’s mechanic look at it. And then my grandmother has to give this dude a ride home after he delivers the car. He was kind of …odd, so my dad is REALLY concerned about my grandmother driving him home, and he has me all...

bookling-stormborn replied to your post: I feel like part of the reason Don is so upset is… OH MY GOD REALLY. The two guys who act like they have her back still have selfish motives, even if they do also care about her. DICKS. EVERYONE ON THIS SHOW IS A BAG OF DICKS. At least Pete has the decency to be upfront about what a squirmy little weasel he is.

I feel like part of the reason Don is so upset is because he’ll never know if it was Joanie or his pitch that sealed the deal. And FUCK YOU, Lane, for acting like its your concern for Joan and not yourself that made you suggest the 5% stake rather than the cash THAT DOES NOT EXIST BECAUSE YOU STOLE IT.

Joanie cupping Don’s cheek is going to have to make up for Sansa not doing the same to Sandor.

5. If you were stranded on a desert island, what...
1. Anna Karenina. Has been sitting on my night stand for months. I think I got about 50 pages in, then put it down. Deserted island seems like a perfect time to finish it. 2. Lord of the Flies. Never read it, but this would be a perfect occasion, no? 3. The Shining. One of my absolute favorite books, and one that I enjoy rereading again and again.  4. Some kind of like survival guide, I guess? ...
