No,no, no,no,no,no, they want their employees to ask law enforcement if they’d be willing to trade in their phones for store credit.

I can’t stop imagining that Steve is actually trying to give “the talk” to his pubescent child in that gif. 

So a brief list of Beven’s (many) stupid/evil statements:

Blaming public school teachers on sickout for the accidental shooting of a 7 year old girl.

Blaming public school teachers for children being sexually assaulted (among other things) at home.

Suggesting that kids get intentionally infected with chickenpox, rather…

Hopefully this doesn’t double post.

Steve Kornacki worked up his signature double time wonky lather tonight!

From what I read a combination of trying to push major roll backs on the Medicaid that would have takens hundreds of thousands of Kentuckians off of insurance and his attacking the striking teachers.

What an odd take on this campaign. Beshear’s stance on abortion may have nearly cost him this race, and probably the bigger mistake by Bevin was to wait until the end to focus on it. Nor does this exactly harken a new era in Kentucky with Republicans winning several down ballot races by 20% and taking back the two…

Exactly. It sounds like someone called him that as an insult, but the doctor or his patients are just idiots and ran with it.

Ah, yes, Picasso, who is most famous for strictly adhering to the standards of conventional beauty, a very good artist to be nicknamed after when you are in the business of splicing bits of face together for purely aesthetic purposes! Sign me up!

I think the kids call this “receipts”.

The cognitive dissonance is real.  As soon as he perceives being negatively affected by something, he bails.

Soooo it’s ok to have a business relationship with a nation that’s anti-democracy, guilty of repeat human rights violations, just as long as you keep your mouth shut, turn a blind eye, stay/know your place, and look the other way? Because, ya’ know...think of the oodles of dollars we can make off this deal.

This. The hurt and pain he was talking about was his own. Not, you know, the actual protestors whose lives are the line.

At home in the US, I’m a public defender, and I protest and advocate against police brutality. The police brutality in HK uses many of the same excuses that law enforcement here to justify their own escalations of violence against the people they’re sworn to protect (I used to work in human rights re: China). It’s…

“My team and this league just went through a difficult week. I think people need to understand what a tweet or statement can do to others. And I believe nobody stopped and considered what would happen. Could have waited a week to send it.”

Not surprised. The old CEO was a nutjob. And going forward, I don’t see why this company should have any value at all. They lease space from a building owner, make surface improvements, then sublease for a profit. Eventually, building owners will just cut them out and make the surface improvements themselves. Goodbye,…

Gonna reply to myself here.

I mean, the Chinese government literally said “we do not believe in freedom of speech.” So it really ISN'T very complicated.

Complicated is short-hand for money on one side and morals on the other.
