Maybe wait to see how this plays out? I get the impression that the owner is well intentioned but uneducated and that it's reflected in the staff's training. Maybe this is a teachable moment for them?

The second part is total bullshit. But given what I've witnessed in the lovely boutique in our cancer hospital at my school, some women bring supportive family and/or female friends to shop for bras, wigs, and/or prosthetics and it can be a very emotional experience for some. Having a more private space to have that…
I feel so bad when I see young people who are super religious. Indoctrinated against their will from an early age, never given a change to choose what they believe and figure things out for themselves. They're never going to really live their lives. It's like those people who are stuck in a small town forever. The…
Isn't the logic for this one kindof predicated on Citizens United?
Women's heathcare was the peg they hung their lawsuit on but, IMHO, the whole purpose was to further gut the ACA and reinforce Christian corporate* supremacy. We're just the convenient scapegoats.
Technically the ruling didn't say that corporations DON'T have the right to restrict other types of health care, etc. It just says that this case only addresses contraception. What Skeeters, RBG, and others are concerned about is the precedent this sets and how it will be interpreted in future cases. If a corporation…
Don't like the ruling? Don't work at Hobby Lobby or Conestoga Wood.
Maybe they didn't have anything heavy enough to break a window with? I wouldn't be able to kick a car window in and I'm not in the habit of carrying a brick in my purse.
in some of these cases I like to give the benefit of the doubt, but fuck this bitch. What is wrong with her? This was no accident. She left two babies in a hot van to work on her tan. Ugh. Add to that she tried to blame their mom. She needs her ass kicked.
I would imagine there will be less discussion about this one because it is so obviously a case of neglect. Like, I am appalled at her choices (and on so many levels - compassion, prioritizing a tan over children's comfort/safety, failing to do her job to an insane degree, etc.), but I don't really have anything to say…
I would eat it too. In the middle of the night. While crying.
I got so pissed at this game I took it out during one mission, immediately drove to gamestop and traded it for Infamous: Second Son. Wow, Infamous was fantastic btw. Watch_dogs seems to try and be a GTA clone with hacking. But the game is actually fantastic during the stealth sections. The full out car chase and…
If the servers know and agree, then it's exactly the same as you giving a tip and the server giving to charity. Who really cares how the server spends your tip once you give it? People tip out of obligation mostly, not because they care where the money goes.
We could talk all day about the way that violence is used throughout the mgs series. I think the entire series constantly reflects on violence and uses it in different ways. Because it's a stealth game we can go through long moments where we don't have to kill anyone, and we are encouraged to avoid violence as much as…
See, I didn't realize it from the beginning, but I started to have a nagging suspicion of it when the game didn't fade to black when getting home to meet with his family at long last. I was in denial for a bit, but then realized that it fit perfectly the narrative arc, and kinda had accepted it with that knowledge.
Now playing
This was also pretty epic. I think that MGS4 is still the perfect ending to the entire series and anything after that is...well, you know.
John Marston's death at the end of Red Dead. It's something you know is coming from the beginning, but it was so perfect. Really, the only possible way for such an incredible game to end.
Not sleazy at all. We have all sorts of people, 24 hours a day on TV, balling their eyes out about how (insert family member) died and or became disabled due to (insert hazard). It's good for society to know that he too, like those other parents, is in pain.
Just a fun action game? Nah, this thing was played up to be the biggest thing in gaming, true nextgen awesome with a bag of chips. It was hyped to be gold and we got silly puddy.
