What has two thumbs and went to medical school but isn't a doctor? THIS GUY! If you get this to the front page I'll give you a free lobotomy.
Big part of the rain we handle death as specifically as we do is germs. There would be a way to do it, but neither compost nor dumpster will work. A drop box that locks and immolates when closed? But it would get misused for murder.
Yeh I'm suggesting they were trying to pressure him not to go so they could then say that
I think it's customary to use "cost" for cost to the company, price is what's charged to the customer.
While I think the real problem is simply that we've allowed profit motive to become such a singularly dominant force in our society, I don't think @Schrefu is wrong. It's certainly a part of our fucked up system. By covering taking and violence with a veneer of socially acceptable etiquette, you can make others look like boorish assholes for initiating confrontation. Think about the treatment of white collar crime, regardless of damage and morbidity caused.
it is a piece of comedy my man
I think edited is the default for anyone who's using social media as personal branding.
He had stated as much before she said it, and he's done it. Fuck the people who voted for him (again).
I have to think the petition was designed to try for that.
how much should I clutch my pearls?
so he'd gladly be a traitor for a dollar
I feel the sentiment, or rather, unsentiment, but what a shit show for the sanitation workers that would be.
The wording was clear, I think maybe both of us just thought the cost (to the installer) was unexpectedly high.
other way round tho
I don't. If you're the head of an agency, and you're going along to the extent of dissembling to Congress, then I really don't give a shit if you're doing it enthusiastically or in order to keep your job. That level of responsibility to the country is a privilege and a duty.
Yup, caption, that was the joke, you got it, good job!
It sounds about right for folks who use AI for 'creative' endeavors.
that is possibly the stupidest sentence I've ever seen on a government website. Certainly the stupidest I've ever seen on the CDC's.
how many of these have we seen? If it wasn't always a bit, this one certainly is.
love that the two answers interpreted your question two different ways
Yeah, you're missing a nuance that mirrors the Supreme Court's evisceration of the 14th amendment. It's that they can't use discriminatory outcomes as evidence of discrimination. Instead, they have to prove discriminatory intent. But wait, constantly saying racist things about a group is also not enough to prove you have racist intent. Now, you have to have said on record, 'we're doing a racism with this policy.'
According to the current SCOTUS, not only is gerrymandering a-ok as long as it's merely trying to make sure only your party can ever win, if there's any possible way to color it as partisan, then that's such a compelling interest that any racist effect must be overlooked. Louisiana v. Callais. God bless America. /s
sorta metered
Exactly this. don't take this bullshit sales pitch without the context of their policies.
She is from the era of 'tracks.' Girls tracked into home ec and sewing instead of calc or shop. Kids with ADD tracked into shop and basic math. She wants to bring back a system that perpetuates class division. Maybe it's not doing away with gen ed, but it's impoverishing it for most students.
I'll start. I studied molecular bio in undergrad and took a bunch of humanities including art history. I loved math. I was drawn to science, poetry, philosophy, sports, woodworking. I went to med school. Ended up in maintenance work after doing about 20 other jobs. Kids don't have a single 'natural inclination' and half of what adults think it is is whatever they've projected onto them. A good education contributes to a good life, regardless of how you fit into the capitalism machine.
IT absolutely will not. They have never cared about user experience, as long as people continue to use it and generate views/clicks/engagement, which equals money for the platform. Consider how mobile ads have evolved to trick you into, or force, clicks. Nobody wanted that. Nobody reported that was enjoyable. But enough people kept using the apps so that it remained a money maker.
Yeah, that would tend to suggest I'm wrong. I'm somewhat on the fence.
I don't think that's true
