What's it with the glasses and face? She reminds me of that other batshit broad, that twitter account for "The Feminist Next Door". It's like they make these people in a factory somewhere.

I wonder if tech companies will accidentally solve this problem by realizing after the Wu Flu that they can save a lot of money by getting people who live in the middle of nowhere to work remotely rather than pay a bunch of bluehairs enough to live in San Fran. Assuming they're not all run by ideologues with a God complex and actually care about money that is.

It's most likely just the glasses style that is "in" at the moment for those crowds and at least popular enough in general for glasses companies to keep putting out that style. I don't really get the whole "buying glasses just because popular look" since you normally want something that compliments your face structure, hairstyle, and fits your needs.
Frankly, I find that style just doesn't work for a lot of the people that pick it and they'd look better with something else, but that style presents them in a specific way to other people that they must want. Maybe something along the lines of "quirky girl with wit" in a similar vein to how some glasses scream "Librarian" or "I really liked the matrix" which pulls people to picking them even if it just doesn't look good. The face also furthers the idea that she wants to appear "quirky" to people.

They wouldn't dare try. What you have to understand is that our politicians are not inventors, generals, businessmen, or poets. They don't get their power and wealth from talent, and few are charismatic without a network airbrushing them. AOC is really no different from any other TDS-infected twittee, and Pelosi is a day-drunk out-of-touch elitist with no real talent (think the mother from Arrested Development). They get their power from connections.
It's why when Hillary lost, the suits who'd groomed themselves into the aristocratic bureaucracy went nuts: it was a domino effect of connections meaning nothing. Her campaign staffers literally had "I'm with her" as the best they could come up with, after millions of dollars and years to plan. How inspirational: a phrase you say to the salesgirl when your wife drags you shoe shopping. If Hillary had won, those connections would have insured they got some cushy position they were in no way qualified to in her administration. Now, those connections are useless, and they have no real talent to fall back on. Trump crashing the election is to them what a stock market crash is to a retiree's 401K: the sum of their labors, gone. (This is also some of the never trumpers as well: Trump was a shock to the inbred, nepotistic spider's web as a whole. He is as much a threat to the Romneys as he is the Kennedys).
If they try a stunt like that, they essentially lose all the connections, because red tape and favors only go so far, and never under much heat. If Pelosi tried to become De Gaulle, she'd be leading an army of her hanger-ons and brown nosers. I hope the bootcamp has gluten-free options. Trump would declare her a traitor, sieze her vineyards and whatever other assets she had to abandon, and let her FOAD like Iran is letting the crown Shah in Miami or the Dalai Lama with China. She brings nothing to the table without her web.
The other question: where would she go? Europeans might be uppity, but they're like spoiled teenagers: when Daddy America puts his foot down, they know to keep their heads down and only say "Yes sir". China might, but living in the Sino-shithole is a punishment no matter how rich you are, and you're just waiting for the next bowl of undercooked bat soup to come along. Africa loves coups, but I don't see Pelosi matching General Buck Naked in flair. Russia has no love for longtime American government officials, and Putin wouldn't find it worth the work to thumb his nose at us for any of them. Most latin countries want good trade with America without American globo-homo; La Résistance gives them the worst in both directions. And if you delve into conspiracies, she can't even join your average A&H poster under Antarctica because she a cryptojevv.

Was he born retarded or is it just your brain on socialism?

I founded the Google cache of that tweet. We're so lucky then Google had cached it and it's now archived.
I think he was born exceptional then his brain was already on socialism.

They will start hiring more from the middle of the country to save on not only salaries but office space and amenities, but that won’t solve the problem because the executives remain in SF, for the most part, or another city like NYC.

You know.. not even trying to understand people is kinda gay.
Cutting taxes on billionaires does not create jobs. They hoard it and use their money to create legislation that benefits them. Inequality is extremely harmful and at this rate America really will end up stratified like Latin-America.

I've read this sentence two ways: they're picking frames that are "popular/a fad for that season", or they don't have a need for glasses outside of being stylish. If it's the latter, isn't that some form of appropriation/mockery of the vision impaired like that Vine fad with the "I'm ugly, but I'm actually beautiful" shit? Yeah, this "I just have the frames, my eyes are actually fine" look has been around even before social media, but then they get snooty/defensive about it when someone questions it.
I personally don't care about thick and squared frames, I get why they exist and if I can find one that looks and feels good on me I might try picking one out in the future (when I'm old and don't care anymore). But it makes me think these people don't have friends/family members to go along with to go through eyeglasses together to make sure they have that second opinion, so that's why a lot of them look more like blockheads than sexy if that's what they were going for. It's not hard to have glasses that's both practical and fashionable, and yet they're just so adverse to their own reflection and/or have no idea how to match frames with the shape of their face. Makes for a good "Watch out, I'm nuts!" first impression, but come on, people.
That reminds me, is there a meme for the "eyeglasses to intellect" like there is for the ponytail meme (which I never knew existed before it showed up in this thread) by any chance? For science.

As someone who has had to wear glasses since 4th grade, most people I've met wearing them are goddamn stupid, myself included. Contacts exist for a reason.

How is that any different than the actions of the government when they righteously tax a billionaire who "doesn't need" all that wealth? Do they not do the same via porking up their own pockets and friends?

Of course, glasses don't increase IQ and the "nerds have glasses hyuck" stereotype hasn't helped at all. But in terms of the frames fads I was just curious if a meme's ever been made about that. I've kinda been under the impression it was one of the first Tumblrina memes because of the thick black frames that's a common sight to see, but it's like a subconscious thing where you just first look at their hair and/or glasses and just know.
Oh holy fuck which Warchowski brother was that? Good God, I don't recall any of them ever looking that round... no, elongated in the face before they went trans.
