Social Media Breakups are Awkward

Recently I direct messaged someone (and note, I virtually never DM people) I'm connected with on Twitter, an old co-worker of mine, to see if there was any chance of summer work at the company she is with. A company run by another old co-worker of mine, by the way. See, I work in the school system and have summers off so I was trying to get some income during my summer break.

She responded that things slow down in the summer but she'd let me know if anything did come up.

And then she unfollowed me.

The Awkwardness Must Have Been Overwhelming

I can't be the only that's a little squigged out by Dick Cheney playing tour guide to Joe Biden. Can I?

I don't know enough about Joe Biden to condemn or condone him (though, like most people I don't know, I'd give him the benefit of the doubt) but I know plenty about Dick Cheney to call him one of the most evil, vile, disgusting bags of feces in human skin to ever hold public office. He has done more than his part to defile the American political machine with his wanton power grabs, his openly mean spirit and generally hateful attitude towards anything not him.

What a bizarre and uncomfortable tour that must have been. I wonder if Cheney proudly showed off his private torture chamber?
