Great article. I mirror a lot of your experiences and beliefs and realize that what I believe and what I think I believe are often at odds with each other. I appreciate you delving into the mechanics behind this, and I think you did a really great job in helping me to take a moment and think about why.

Will I stop…

How come you blur out the Twitter handles. Isn’t Twitter a public tool?

That’s a low bar. All it has to do is not text, shave, put on makeup, get distracted, or fail to signal.

Also, I think you are completely wrong. The problem with automated cars isn’t the automation, it’s the people that the automated car is expected to anticipate.

You’re essnetially asking for automated cars to…

I’m getting a T-Shirt that says “Team Heather”. Winter Soldier is a story of brotherhood and enduring loyalty. If they’d been in military fatigues instead of superhero costumes, it would have made a brilliant war film. I sincerely thought I was the only one who finds it the best Marvel film so far.

But I did love…

I know that I would have run in to save those skiers. Even if I didn’t have a weapon.

This is actually the point of his character. He’s NOT the hero. He’s a horrible person who does horrible things to everyone around him.

Give Better Call Saul a try. The character is more relatable. He does bad things, without a doubt. But he does them for what he thinks are the right reasons, and not because he’s about…

I think OP is talking about you, my man.

Same thing happened to me. I got a “Too Fast For Conditions” ticket coming up to a 40 mph ramp. The hwy leading to the ramp is 50 mph speed limit, and I was doing less than 60 and had not yet reached the 40 mph signs. I was driving carefully because I KNEW the sheriff had been right behind me for about a mile.

It…

Yahoo needs to take a lesson from Equifax and make a sizable donation to some politician.

When I read the book, I kept waiting for it to pivot and show me how shallow and empty I was as the reader for being charmed by all the nostalgia from my youth, all the masturbation and self-appreciation for having remembered that one thing from that one time. It never pivoted and became anything good. The entire book…

Let me be sure I’m clear on this: If Trump, in talks with Kim Jong Un manages to NOT get us all nuked, he’ll go down as a great president.

Is that what we’re saying?

Now, again, forgive me if I’m wrong. I’m no historian. But I feel like there have been a few other presidents in the past that have managed to not get us…

I never played her when a res was an ability, only when it was her Ult, and I really only used it on the tank, and people who kept me alive. I didn’t go out of my way to do a full team res for the types that run off on their own and die. Stay close to the tank, and keep the healer alive, get a res.
I played on console,…

I loved Mercy and until her big changes, I did well with her and was acknowledged for it. Since her changes, she’s no longer one of the 5 characters you’re “allowed” to play. Sure, I can pick the character you’re yelling for me to use, but I’m half as good with them as I am with Mercy. This game is great. The people…

This was my issue with the game, and with Metal Gear Survival. I want to shoot stuff, I don’t want to craft stuff. I have zero percent interest in crafting in nearly any game. I was excited for Fortnight getting a free Battle Royale mode, but when I saw the walls and forts, I knew that no matter how good I was at run…

I wish I still had access to the long discussions our gaming group had on this, but we use the free version of Slack and it forgets everything after 10,000 lines or something, so I’m going mainly from memory, and this was two years ago.

I know from launch there were issues logging onto the servers, problems grouping,…

Congratulations on getting your first credit card 10 days ago!

The game was pretty bad at launch. But the devs truly care about the product and have been working tirelessly to save the game. The 1.8 patch actually made the game pretty great. I leave it installed and play when they run events. I still really enjoy it. For $10 it would be an absolute steal. Even just to play single…

So your issue is not with the process, but with the people that don’t understand the process. That makes more sense. Thanks for the reply.

You’re restating the obvious, though. Your “Fair Share” is because there’s more people in the NE than in most other places in the country. So it only illustrates basic logic that more people in an area would pay a larger share of the taxes. Are you saying that a place like Utah should be generating as much tax revenue…

Maybe if the state was getting necessary taxes from the businesses in the state, this would be less of a problem? This kind of news pops up and all of us are supposed to panic and rush in to convince the government to help, but where are the taxes from the businesses, the places with the tax breaks that would have…
