I think the point is that if you’re doing something useful and reasonably difficult for 40 or more hours a week it should provide a living wage.

Just make it a blockchain enabled gig business and you can take your wheelbarrow to the bank

I own my own consulting business that makes money. Nowhere near what a company like Amazon makes, but I do actually make a profit. If Lyft can get almost $5 billion by losing money, my company should be worth at least a trillion dollars, right?

Yup. He can be an asshole and wrong. And the plastic surgery is still a bit much.

With very rare exception, 325 pound people generally aren’t especially healthy, no matter how active and athletic they are. If that’s his easy natural weight, it’s definitely possible he could have an underlying cardiac or other medical problem that could be exacerbated by fatigue, dehydration, alcohol, etc. Even if…

Wait, why couldn’t it be drugs? It could very easily be drugs. I’m not saying it is drugs...but to dismiss that possibility out of hand ignores the fact that people have all kinds of adverse reactions to all kinds of substances.

I was doing some IT infrastructure in an office building last year, nothing complicated just adding some new Comcast lines. As you may or may not know, all the cabling in a skyscraper is stacked vertically so you just journey from floor to floor, extending the cable.

I bet people who prefer Red Vines to Twizzlers probably also prefer unsweetened black coffee to enjoyable coffee.

I dont understand how Twizzlers are “offensive” to people. They are chewy strawberry ropes. Red vines have no flavor, texture, or aroma other than a vaguely flour-ey mouthfeel. They are the equivalent of the shitty brownies from a box at the middle school bake sale compared to the mom who can actually bake rolling out…

I’m not a courtroom lawyer but I’m 99% sure cops don’t have the jurisdiction to make sure someone is a really a lawyer in court. That’s the court’s job and only the court’s job. The cop is there for security and to bring criminal defendants in and out of custody. This cop should 100% be fired but I’m sure he won’t be.

I mean I can be mad at George Zimmerman being found innocent, hundreds of cops not facing any murder charges, and still think that Jussie was guilty and deserved jail time. It’s not all mutually exclusive.

They are unaware that their input is not as original as they think. 

I’ve always wondered why people leave reviews on Steam. Genuinely curious, what purpose do people think they serve when most of these seem largely identical?

Ironic that the self-professed evangelical hates poor people and the disabled so much.

I believe they call it “failing up.” Really easy if you’ve got the right MBA from the right school and are friends with the right people. Even though they screwed the pooch, they’re still getting their ridiculous bonuses. And if they really screw up, they have their golden parachute to fly them off to another company…

“If we’re honest with ourselves, we’re not there right now.”

While marketing is often overrated, how about they can the execs that thought launching Anthem now instead of when it’s ready?

I’ve been getting enough side-eye from friends (for decades now) over watching professional wrestling every Monday night that it’s referred to as motavia’s guilty pleasure.

Not at all a dumb question! But it’s a little hard for me to explain exactly what I disliked about it. It just felt like something that would have felt very deep and meaningful to me in my youth, but further into adulthood just felt irritating and self-indulgent. In fairness, it could also have suffered from being…

I am a 90s girl and to this day still maintain that Mellon Collie is one of the best alternative albums ever released and that Tonight, Tonight is one of the best music videos ever created. The Pumpkins still have great replay value, though I will admit that “The Perfect Drug” and “Closer to God” are as far as I go for…
