As a child who was repeatedly force by her mother to hug random adults, I very much approve of this message. I read an article (forgot where) that said that parents’ forcing their children to hug others is the first lesson into the demolition of a sense of security and learning that their body is not their own. And…

as a former teacher i’ve seen parents scold their kids for not hugging me goodbye at the end of the day or before holiday breaks, etc.

This is important because so many people encourage kids to hug or kiss people they might not want to - whether it’s an adult or other kid. I mean. The intent is not bad, it’s cute or charming.

Do you ever read all the lies and babble coming from people like Palin and stop and think “what if I’m actually the person that’s completely divorced and utterly disconnected from reality?”

Last night someone cited Liberty News as a credible source for Hillary “leaking” the 4 minute nuclear response time — in case you’re all unaware, this is the newest Deplorables outrage. Anyone, someone else posted the Snopes article debunking it. Dipshit then posts that we should all look into Snopes a little deeper…

What are you talking about? Breitbart is a TOTALLY credible source. The journalists and editors on that site are the only people actually doing any REAL, legitimate reporting. It’s where we should all be going to learn the TRUTH about things and UNCOVEVER the INJUSTICE that is the rigging of the 2016 Presidential…

I believe you just listed the Sunday night primetime schedule for TrumpTV

One sure way to skull fuck your credibility instantly is to cite them as a source.

I don’t care much for high fashion or models but I have to say that even I am impressed. That is amazing.

I am guessing she started threatening people. He told her to go. She wouldn’t. He picked her up in a bear hug, carried her to the door and tossed her out. Then slammed the door shut.

I mean, what are you supposed to do if a dinner party guest starts talking about stabbing your other guests in the neck and makes a move to start smashing dishes? Just let her wreck the place? Wait for her to hurt someone?

It’s not relevant to the story, I was just curious about how the law looks at it. For the record, I think the legal system completely mishandles addiction and perpetuates the cycle.

tl;dr: the ADA is not blanket protection for employees with substance abuse issues. There are exceptions that allow the employer to rightfully terminate the employee. Having only heard one side of the case, I have no idea if she was wrongfully terminated.

;)

If the company documented poor performance and she was on her way out when actively misusing a drug, she’s not protected. If they figured out she was using while she was on leave (and sober) she is protected. The company will have to show that she had serious performance issues and was going to get fired before she…

No. The ADA prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability, and perception of disability.

She definitely has a type of dude she’s interested in fucking, since they’re all musicians.

Although an employee’s status as an alcoholic or a recovering drug addict may merit protection under the ADA in certain circumstances, including when the employee is in rehabilitation and is no longer using, an employee or job applicant is not “a qualified individual with a disability” if he or she is “currently…

What?? No she doesn’t. I mean, I don’t know if I’d be her BFF, but I don’t think she seems terrible. She’s Goldie Hawn’s kid, after all.
