I’m not ‘defending’ anything - I’m ridiculing the idea that the mere fact that someone has a lot of experience means, regardless of market value, they should be paid a lot of money. Your ‘it’ll add up over time’ claim is equally ridiculous and betrays an ignorance of working for a living here in real life.

So that would be changing low paying job A into slightly less low paying job B, not making Job A plus 20 years a high paying job. If you work at McDonalds at the drive-thru window, you can do it for 50 years and still get paid less than a living wage in your 50th year.

Disgraceful for who? A low paying job doesn’t magically become high paying because you’ve been doing it for a long time.

Do you think research for Plan B and other similar drugs was performed on men? If not, how does ‘why is it so hard for research to regularly include women’ relate to this topic at all?

‘Grounds for a class action suit’ - I’ve rarely read anything more ridiculous on these sites. Most drug doses have a milligram per kilogram dosage range - i.e. the amount of drug necessary to achieve the desired therapeutic result relies on the body mass of the patient. It’s basic biology, not intentional…

It’s a private school, I don’t think there’s ever been an era in the U.S. without private schools that have strict dress code guidelines (including hair on head, facial hair, etc.).

Is this the same Tim Allen (born Timmy Dick) that was arrested with a pound of cocaine and narrowly escaped a life sentence by becoming an informant? Quite the symbol of conservative values.

If I recall she refused most obligations to market the film, not just campaign for ‘her Oscar’. And not to put too fine a point on it, but campaigning for an Oscar is a huge part of marketing a film - and contributing to a successful film was literally her job.

Oliver was also working for the Daily Show back then, just not on camera.

She’ll prob spend 8 weeks in jail, tops. ‘A year and a day’ is a sentence designed to trigger some probation and other technical requirements, but in no way does it mean anyone with that sentence will spend that much time in prison.

Calling this “extraordinarily homophobic” signals a loss of all possible context, in a world where ordinary homophobia means physical assault, dehumanizing harassment and officially sanctioned torture and imprisonment.

Whennnn will you learn to capture images instead of hotlinking, so that when people arrive at your article the crucial context of the actual images isn’t deleted?

Huh, maybe I had it backwards.

Not quite. First, technically customs can’t bar an American citizen from entering the U.S. with or without a passport. Second, the enhanced Real ID can get you into Mexico or Canada and back again (but a regular Real ID drivers license won’t work as well.)

Isn’t it funny that most of the people so opposed to a national ‘government ID’ are happy to demand ID at polling places, as long as it mostly doesn’t affect them or ‘their kind.’

The enhanced Real ID gets you into Mexico and Canada. The regular Real ID does not.

Yeah - US has 4 color variants for the same sort of reasons.

Black is official government business. Red is diplomatic status.

The United States issues passports that can be black, red, orange or blue. Black = government business. Red = diplomatic immunity. Orange = active duty military. Blue = civilian.

Wow, shitty English and a weird attitude - playing a game you purchased is a ‘privilege’ that the developer will deny you if it doesn’t agree with your “cognition”? What the fuck?
