That’s great. My dad did something along the same lines. When I lived in AL, I was big into the community theatre scene, and just before I moved I was in a production of 1776. For whatever reason, the part of the delegate from NY state wasn’t cast, and the opening night was quickly approaching, so the director asked…

I said it when this first happened. Right wing media are complicit. All their fear mongering and “you have to fight for this country! The takers are everywhere!” Using dog whistle racism to get these people all riled up, and look what happened. This isn’t the first time, hopefully it will be the last, but only if the…

But armed with Knife instead of Guns give 3 killed and 30 injured.

The fact that Stormfront and Fox News are both pushing the “War on Christians” narrative is both deeply disturbing, yet completely unsurprising.

We still have not moved past the 1960s. Not in how protestors are treated. Not in how racism works its violence out. This is deplorable and a wake up call to everyone who thinks we’re not a racist country.

No.

If you spent 5 mins googling Sanders instead of stereotyping him your opinion might have more value. Guy has spent his entire career fighting for the working class.

This didn’t get nearly enough love.

I technically did the asking, I’m not sure if this counts though.

you’re right I am wrong this comment is why no one wants to fuck you ever.

Agreed.

Very on point, thanks! I am so over this chill bullshit. If you like someone make plans with them. If you like someone tell them. I don’t want a goddamn pen pal, I want someone to eat, drink and be merry with.

It’s an upgrade from “Um”. Barely.

Other person: Hey

My mum has a tunour. It was causing liver failure before it was diagnosed. 2 further days without treatment would have killed her so fuck you and ur obvious medical expertise. Firing a woman for putting her health first is the most disgusting thing I’ve had the misfortune to read today.

I’m surprised at the number of responses that are basically “Eh, a couple of days wasn’t going to kill her, she totally deserved to get fired”. Really? Really?! Regardless of the time frame, who would wish to prolong that period of uncertainty and fear for their employee? And how well do they think that employee will…

I have about 50 employees, two young managers that mind the day to day customer stuff and two part time assistant managers that back them up. Yes, retail employees can be a pain in the ass, especially the college students. Brown Bottle flu every Saturday morning, etc. But this wouldn’t fly with me.

Right. As Margaret Atwood says, Men are afraid women will laugh at them. Women are afraid men will murder us.

Fucking hell. We are damned if we do and dead if we don’t.

Meat went from this “every so often as a treat” thing to a daily staple and it’s wrecked us. It’s not good for us at all. I try to have meatless days but then it’s mostly pasta and salad.
