I came here to say this. I’m a family law attorney, and get to handle adoption cases. If I’ve learned anything, it’s that we should be building bridges, not burning them; some of my closest relationships have been with non-related people, and I’m estranged from much of my family (which has gotten better over the…

I find it very helpful to treat them like tiny, drunk adults.

That’s a great way to get herpes infection in the eye, given that about 90% of the population has it and only about 20% ever show any symptoms.

In open defiance of all common sense and warnings to the contrary, I sleep in my lenses. Often for months at a time. I’ve had two incidents of conjunctivitis, one when I was 19, and one about 2 years ago; both were mild and cleared up without further incident when the lenses were discarded and I wore glasses for a…

Y’all can just come pay me $6 for a facsimile that is WAY better, plus you don’t have to worry about unsanitary conditions, sick fast food workers, or deplorable working conditions including the potential risk for severe grease burns. Bump that up to $8 and I’ll make the chicken organic. The copycat recipes online are…

But guys, think of those 94 people who could have died from opioid overdose instead! WHAT EVER WILL THE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY DO TO RECOVER!?

Unions are not reserved only for skilled labor. Expendability does not preclude employees from unionizing, also.

They’re probably not actual contractors, although the protection afforded to employees has been steadily eroding. Just because they’re classified by the employer as contractors doesn’t mean they fit the IRS definition, but people have to actually know that.

Just because they’re called contractors doesn’t mean they are. The IRS has consistently demonstrated this. If they aren’t setting their own hours and bringing their own tools (along with a litany of other factors), they’re not IC’s.

Fucking unionize. That’s the only way you level the playing field. The decline in unions has directly correlated to the shrinking middle class and steadily falling standard of living in this country. UNIONIZE.

Leaving this comment because I’m wondering if I’m weird... but for anyone else, does using cannabis seem to slow down time? I have noticed that my perception of time really stretches when I’m pleasantly, mildy (half a bowl) stoned. What is fifteen minutes of knitting seems like an hour, so when I vape when I get home…

Let the record reflect that a snarky answer like dead chicken would immediately garner a 20% minimum tip increase.

I’m far closer to 40 than 20, and “hosting dinner parties” consists of taking care of other drunk mid-thirties people by shoving grilled cheese and cookies in their direction

Toward or away from the classier option?

I have an eating disorder and sometimes find myself incapable of eating (it isn’t just a matter of “eat, dammit,” sometimes my body physically resists by making me intensely nauseated). Add to this that many times I find myself in restaurants or in social situations where I am expected to eat and it is deeply…

Honestly we all would be well-advised to eat less meat, even if we aren’t willing to go full vegetarian/vegan.

Switch the percentages for 3 and 1 and you have me

only one way to find out

This is all a terrible idea
