All great points. Why put their employees at risk to be arrested for exercising rights they have elsewhere? To anyone who says that their women workers can easily travel out of state if the need arises, don’t bet on it. Any politician backwards enough to pass this law could very well start arresting pregnant women…

If this human rights violation was happening anywhere else, wouldn’t we be pressuring Hollywood to film in a more civilised location? And anyways, when has staying and fighting ever been more effective than a boycott in this country where money is the only thing that talks as loud as God™? This law didn’t pass…

Better to let a cobbler deal with it. They have wooden shoe forms they crank a tiny bit every day until they get it right. Probably could be done at home but people get too impatient and would wreck their shoes by rushing it.

Ashley, for future reference -since you’ve already returned the shoes- a cobbler can definitely make footwear that’s just a smidge too small or tight the right size to fit you and it’s almost always very inexpensive to get it done. Don’t rush them though, stretching shoes correctly without impacting longevity can take…

That’s really nice but since Davidson can well afford proper mental healthcare, it’s irrelevant that Lorne treats his favorites well if he’s the kind of boss who could drive employees he doesn’t like to have mental health issues of their own.

Because he wears foundation but nothing to give dimension like blush.

As I said I believe they’re both bad. And yes, driverless cars might have become a thing but for as long as I can remember it was portrayed as a convenience for private citizens-you’d be free to ride in your car as it drove you safely to your destination. That scenario of individual ownership didn’t undermine an…

Thanks, Obama :-)

Uber may be moving money to poorer people now but it’s already slashed their incomes from what they were when it launched and once it introduces driverless cars, it will kill hundreds of thousands of full and part-time jobs not just in the cab industry but very likely in delivery services of all types. It’s now…

Normally crayon marks would be the easiest thing to clean up and not even worth complaining about but I suspect these aren’t regular painted walls. If they’re marble, marquetry or expensively wallpapered , it would cost a ton of money to get them back to original condition. If it’s silk ‘wallpaper’ it probably would…

There are buildings that offer short term leases (weekly, monthly) on furnished apartments. You get all the freedom you want but in a perfectly legal context that doesn’t encourage real estate speculators, tax fraud and the type of discrimination you’re seeing discussed here. Plus there are often hotels and motels that…

More like person who has seen some weird legal shenanigans such as parents having to sue their own kids for damages or their insurers wouldn’t pay up. (I guess a willingness to sue their child was deemed proof that these weren’t inside jobs where parents got their kids to total the family cars or torch houses to…

This is the right take on this issue. 

This is what happens when landlords rely on BS like credit scores or where the person works to choose tenants. The best way to know if someone will pay their rent and leave the place in decent shape is to get a copy of their rent receipts going back a few years. Millionaires trash places, doctors have skipped out on…

Kids are often named in lawsuits when they’re the ones who have caused damages even if their parents should have stopped them. Once the amount of the damage they’ve caused is decided, it’s the parents who usually have to pony up since they’re responsible for their child. It may seem like the long way around but it’s…

Lol, I am always on the side of the person being treated unfairly so, yes, on rare-very rare- occasions, that person is a millionaire. ;-)

I’ve read of similar incidents where the hosts were then banned from the platform but I feel there should be punitive measures. After all, whatever you think of Airbnb,  after this trash is out, it's their reputation, not hers that takes a hit. 

Yes! Support legitimate hotels and their staff. Why is anyone surprised when people mostly looking to earn money under the table, in other words evade taxes, are antisocial in other ways too?

That’s great and well-deserved. I saw her in Unstoppable with Denzel Washington and Chris Pine about ten years ago. She only had a minor role but it was so obvious that she had ‘it’ that I looked up her name in the credits to watch her in other work.

You’re right. When I first read that I wondered how a mansion could only have 6 rooms so I checked and the original article this post links to mentions 6 bedrooms. So it's definitely a bigger home.
