“I’ve flown with a 24-hour flu”.

Of course. And plenty of people will blame women for not “asking for more.” Sigh. Like we don’t.

Correction:

I’d love for us to be able to move to a confirmation based system like many other countries have.  Your workplace and financial institutions report like normal, then the IRS would send you their calculations.  Then you confirm or update with new data.  Of course, H&R Block, Intuit/TurboTax, et. al. wouldn’t like that.

There’s...also the FFF and MMM version. There’s more to life than penis-vagina intercourse.

If you don’t understand the concepts and legalities involved in a free and independent press, the 1st Amendment, or even the responsibility of news reporters to the public, then you shouldn’t write about it.

If you are standing there reciting a speech that you disagree with and presenting it as if it is your opinion then yes, you have sold your integrity.

I’m just following orders.

I though we had all agreed that the “I am just doing my job” excuse didn’t fly any more. Sorry Lifehacker, I can be angry with both the employer and the employee that chooses to work there.

if this “blue wave” does happen (I am skeptical), then the results will be a shit show. There’s no way all of these lunatics are going to accept being removed from office while doing “God’s work”. I’m honestly worried about violent reprisals in some places.

from my experiences it’s usually dominated by a handful of people who are retired and have too much time on their hands

The reason you find this so ridiculous is because you will never be in a situation where a man could accuse you of any inappropriate behaviour without being laughed at, safe of you literally ripping his clothes off. You will never be accused of ‘eye raping’, making a man ‘uncomfortable’, ‘sexist’ jokes, ‘accidentally…

I think part of what people should and do acknowledge about Nazi Germany is that their propaganda machine was highly effective, including graphic design and “fashion.” It should be recognized as something to pay attention to in future rising fascist regimes.

Oh sure, if you want your tomatoes to taste fast-food-level terrible by deactivating the flavor compounds that get shut off at 12 degrees C or below...the Washington Post did an article about it.

Mind you, if you have a garden full of tomatoes and the neighbors have threatened to salt your yard so that nothing may ever…

I absolutely will not! Not because I think ‘purse’ is inappropriate because of some gender association... but because they aren’t purses. They are hand bags.
