It’s not smart to tussle with the police.

Two words that describe why I don’t ride fair rides: pin slop.

These rides make me vomit. I see no reason to go on them for artificial fear. I’m a firefighter. I tell people I’m too cowardly to go on these rides, and I usually get a pass (see also: firefighter). I further tell them that if the coaster gets stuck up-side-down at the top of the loop, I’m willing to climb up, rope…

At least some rebel scum didn’t fire a proton torpedo into the garbage shoot and blow up the store.

Lots of people who love capitalism also love slavery. They go hand in hand.
Like seriously, when and where has unregulated and unfettered corporate capitalism ever not tried to turn their work force into slaves, or tried to work them to death.

I worked in fast food for years and I had a shift manager whose motto was “If you have time to lean, you have time to clean”. Problem is, she would often hassle employees who were legitimately doing things related to their job in the restaurant (serving customers, cooking food, etc.) to go clean stuff, when cleaning…

The managers also had a weird thing about employees sitting on the job. If they caught anyone sitting, that person would quickly find themselves on management’s shit list.

I just don’t believe the 75-year-old guy who says he’s seen all these low-level people move up to high-ranking positions in 5 months. That rarely happens anywhere, much less several times in 5 months in that kind of job.

I think the problem is that like you kind of point out, nothing is going to change a workaholic’s mind. The flip is that there are some people who hide behind sick leave policies and take off for everything. I had a co-worker who took 50 days over 18 months because of her sleep apnea and always had a doctor’s note to…

Also, separate sick days from vacation days. People will come to work sick, because they don’t want to tap into their PTO.

I can see both sides here and while I sympathise for transwomen in this situation, it is being caused by the behaviour of natal men being violent and aggressive towards them, yet the solution is that vulnerable natal women are expected to shut up and move over despite feeling uncomfortable sharing facilities with…

SUVs of course. The fact that they’re terrible gas-guzzling dangerous garbage, while it is the reason why I wouldn’t want to own one, is not my objection to somebody crazy enough to want a crappy car like that having one for himself.

Yay, now everyone will be able to think they don’t have to actually look around when they drive.

They don’t have to be in possession of the warrant. A warrant might be issued in Washington D.C. and hours later a Marshal may locate THE subject in L.A. The warrant was entered into the Nation Crime Information Center database. The officer need only be aware of it’s existence. A judge will eventually present a copy…

This. If you feel you have a case, make it in front of a judge.

OK...So the cops showed up to arrest him and he refused to come out of his house. What, exactly, are they supposed to do? Go home? Give up?

“Shit guys, he’s in the house, I guess we’re done.”

There is no evidence of any foul play. It is a trsgic situation where a potentially suicidal inmate was not monitored enough. It is unclear if any policies were broken, but she absolutely took her own life.

She killed herself. I haven’t seen any evidence of foul play outside of some negligence in leaving her alone. It is hard to accept the suicide of a child.

What if... and I know this is crazy, but what if she actually did kill herself? And it wasn’t some elaborate and completely unmotivated murder cover-up? Is that somehow not possible because the family decided she wasn’t suicidal? Even though it’s a fairly common occurrence with families and friends of suicide victims.…
