And now they just want you to forget about it.
NOPE.
Imagine for a moment that you are married to Nancy Pelosi. You can either have sex with her, or you can get drunk with a male prostitute.
Kim invites us to comment on this situation:
Here is the problem with what she is wearing:
Women who dress like this do so to get attention. Then they fall all over the first attractive (either through physical looks or having $$, or something else she wants) man who gives them the attention that they are seeking. If some of the attention that they receive is from a man that they regard as being unattractive, the same woman will complain about sexual harassment from that man and about how accusing women of “asking for it” is blaming the victim. This creates all kinds of HR and legal liability.
The other women in the office who aren’t dressing like this accuse the woman of trying to sleep her way to the top, or they get angry that the men in the office are pigs. Women are catty like that.
I once had a woman who was dressed in a skimpy outfit get mad at me when I looked at her. She was confronting me, then her meathead boyfriend came over and wanted to fight. I refused, and he threatened to drag me outside for a beating. Luckily, he backed down before he got himself into more trouble than he would know what to do with and wound up costing me some legal fees.
Have a dress code, enforce it, and this all goes away. Tits are fun to look at and I am definitely a fan, but they are poison to a professional workplace. Send her and her cleavage home.

Wild boards? You mean trees? Layers and layers of editorial oversight, indeed.
In a short story written in 1974, Ursula LeGuin wrote about a Utopian society located in a nation called Omelas titled The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas. Everything there is simply perfect. No kings, no poverty, no misery. There being no poverty, there is no need for money, for crime, it is the ideal society. Life there consists of a daily, never ending carnival celebrating the summer solstice.
Life in Omelas is perfect. In fact, there is only one flaw: In order for Omelas to remain in this condition, one child must be kept in darkness, misery, and utter despair. This fact is kept from everyone in Omelas until they reach a certain age of maturity, when they are shown this child and told the secret.
Once they are old enough to know the truth, most are initially shocked and disgusted. The person is then offered a choice:
Most elect to stay and perpetuate the perfect society. The ones who elect to leave are never seen or heard from again. Of the ones who leave, no one knows what happens to the ones who walk away from Omelas.
This powerful story contains many parallels with today. We are watching our children being groomed for sexual predation. We are watching our wealth being stolen, wars fought with our young people and wealth. All manner of atrocities are being carried out. We are faced with a choice:
Indeed, no one knows what will happen if we walk away from Omelas.
Those partisan hacks on the View are denying that the left engages in political violence right after they and their studio audience engage in their two minutes of hate on Ted Cruz:
They could just do a search on this blog for violence, or perhaps simply look at the incidents linked on this page.

This story is why I remain opposed to the death penalty in practice. You can’t trust anyone in our “justice system.” Even with a confession.
The guy spent 35 years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit before his conviction was overturned. The cop who got his conviction was using questionable tactics to secure confessions for years.
