Nah, that’s basically what they’re doing. Trump might be utterly incompetent at everything he touches beyond shameless grift, but odds are that enough high level Pentagon officials have been bandying this idea about between them for a while (because Satellites are kiiiiiiinda important these days) and they’re the ones…

Gentlefolk sounds silly but I use “friends.” Even if they’re not actually my friends.

Exactly! They’re basically contractions for names — quick easy things that make conversation more convenient/efficient. If I have to remember that Sally prefers “she” and Ramon prefers “ze” and Abigail prefers “ne” and David prefers “he” and Ziggy prefers “xe”, then I’m just going to fucking call you Sally, Ramon,…

Here are some other gender-neutral pronouns that people might request you use:

This makes sense. Anything after he, she, or they kind of defeats the purpose of pronouns. We use pronouns as a matter of convenience, at a certain point, using names becomes infinitely easier.

Yep — I’m perfectly happy to use they/them/their, but I’m not calling anyone xe/xem/xyr. Sorry, not sorry.

They/them/their seems to work perfectly in all cases, there is no need to go looking for additional options just to complicate matters.

The only person with crappier runs in Colorado this past weekend was Ezekiel Elliott.

Reciept are you kidding its the 21st century and you rely on 15th century tech EFPOS transactions are itemised on bank statements and Ive used them in the past for warranty claims keeping bits of paper is a stupid idea.

Perhaps all the above is a concerted effort to prevent droids from having instantaneous access to all the data in the universe. By not creating the infrastructure for easy data transmissions and by keeping mass storage facilities analog droids remain subservient.

I don’t think it’s brag-worthy, but maybe people are just so happy after the ride at how convenient and pleasant it was compared to taking a taxi that they just can’t help mentioning it.

Buy their way into cities may be an overstatement. They are actively at war with various metro areas because their business model wouldn’t be able to compete if they followed local laws and ordinances. So they ignore them, then go the route of “Sorry, not sorry” when cities fight them. With the amount of money they…

I call bullshit!

They taste good, and the copper mug makes them ‘cool’ enough for men who are up their own ass about wanting to appear TOUGH AND MANLY with their drinks to still order.

They’re yet another sign of Russia’s infiltration and perversion of American values.

No thanks. I’m buying this $85 rock from Nordstroms with which I will hit myself repeatedly to unconsciousness until 2020.

You’re half right. It depends on the age of his/her card. If it was the most recent card he/she opened, then closing it should help his credit since it will INCREASE his average age of credit. If it is one of your older cards, then I agree with flyjar, leave it open and don’t use it

Leave it and don’t use it. Closing it actually makes your credit score go down.

Blaming Autopilot is like blaming cruise control. Or any of the new safety features found on any late model car.

I’ll go see it most likely, but the movie isn’t what got me into Stargate, Stargate SG-1 did that. Don’t get me wrong, I like the movie, but for me Richard Dean Anderson was a much better O’Neill than Kurt Russell. Maybe it’s just because I had so much more of him as that character, but RDA’s take on it clicked with…
