Right? $546,000 working 108-hour weeks over 23 years is about...$4 an hour. Far less than the federal minimum wage, and that’s after DOUBLING the settlement.

Someone check my math, but with time-and-half over 40 hours at $7.25/hr, Smith should be due over $1.2 million, not counting interest. What he got is frankly an…

I haven’t been keeping up with it closely & get my news second hand, but last I heard (a few days ago) they were at like 2% vaccinated. Articles attribute it to hesitancy, poor communication, and sluggish vaccine approval process. I do know Japan loves its bureaucracy. I have been seeing a fair bit about the vaccine…

Even assuming they didn’t know she was 17 (they totally did), dude just found out he was sex trafficking a minor, and decided “no worries, I can wait,” instead of the marginally less horrible “maybe I should distance myself from this person that could potentially put me in prison, and just pay to fuck one of these…

The “maniac” was a Black girl, with a Black life. Emphasis on WAS. Now you’re here trying to argue her life didn’t matter.

It’s troubling that you’re so quick to paint this girl as a “maniac.” You saw a few seconds of her life, and immediately know all you need to know about her. She WAS a human being. There’s a middle…

They must continue to find a group to marginalize and paint as “the other,” either subtly or overtly, on which to focus the attention of their voter base. Otherwise, the voters might realize they are being robbed blind by the people they’ve elected.

At least they didn’t change it to “POON”

This Chinese government?

Seems like he watched about half of Breaking Bad, and went “I have an idea...”

Granted, I’ve never handled a taser. But as someone who grew up in Texas, if you’ve handled guns, you know what they feel like. A loaded handgun is heavy. Also, presumably you’re...you know...looking at it when you aim and fire.

Monopoly was a lie.

“When we evaluate other people, states and nations, we always seem to be looking in the mirror. We always see ourselves. We always pass on to another person what we ourselves are in essence,” Putin added.

He wants to say he wasn’t targeting Asians, but he sure wasn’t out in the street, shooting in random fucking directions now was he? Your gun only points one way, son.

The most disturbing part is there are those that wouldn’t see it as satire.

America is becoming (has become?) the Simpsons episode where Homer tries to solve every problem with his gun.

You can be damn sure any time right-wingers get incensed about something, they are doing it themselves.

Exactly. If your words and deeds are so diametrically opposed to what’s in your heart, then maybe you got a lot of growing the fuck up to do.

If you’re pushing 40, and you haven’t yet figured out how to get your mouth to agree with your soul, you need some professional help.

Or maybe you’re just a damn racist.

Not to mention, the highest total population of the Roman Empire was 60-70 million, and the US has ~328 million now. There are a lot of people.

And the area of the US is almost equivalent to the entire EU, while the population is currently about half that. Our states are truly more like individual countries at this…

“I totally didn’t have to quit my job, but you damn libs wanted me to quit my job, so I quit my job 100% on my own terms so I could bitch about you making me quit my job.”

It was the “live-action” qualifier that got me. Never heard of a “live-action” stage play before, since, you know, they’re all live-action.

And then they say “stage adaptation” in the very next sentence.

What, do they not get along with Carnie anymore?
