And Darth Sidious. (The “in” is silent.)

Technically that’s probably TG4 (the Irish language TV channel, which is rumored to have bought up the largest collection of soft porn in Europe). Or possibly Fliuch.

At least “Mon Calamari” can be explained away by typical first contact / outsider naming: “Jeez, those aliens we met really look like squid” with the assumption that they don’t call themselves that in their own language and their own name for themselves is something like along the lines of *sapient beings* or…

Here for just this. “Savage Opress”? Really?

The anti-repeal campaign here is trying to co-opt the “choice” language. To me, that is a sign that “choice” language is strong. Although, I lean more towards “autonomy” and “access to healthcare”(which is a very big argument in Ireland, because the 8th amendment has resulted in pregnant women with cancer being denied…

What he said is really appreciated over here.

She’s an outrage troll who profited from people getting mad at her performative racism back in 2015. It’s real like MAGAfuckers burning their gear on video.

I think she did that back in 2015 when she followed up her “Dear Fat People” video with “Dear Black People” trollery. (Not linking to it because she admitted back in 2015 she was doing it all for the outrage click$.)

They probably made perfect sense for state of technology and expense of manufacture at the time, but peripheral vision is such a boon.

What? You mean you don’t have a model ship hanging from your ceiling? Didn’t you know it’s all the rage?

Yeah. Arguably they want to show the cost impact of the delay as they probably care about that a lot more than actual time lapsed, but it’s pretty awkward.

It (or ‘person hours’ which is what my company uses) is standard for estimating the amount of time of a single worker on a project. Depending on how many people you can get doing different work streams that might be less actual time, so it might be useful for estimating how much he cost a the company in people’s…

Being a classic that distinguishes itself from the crowd and being problematic as fuck certainly aren’t mutually exclusive states.

I validate your feeling annoyed.

I’m suddenly reminded of my typical complaint about visiting the in-laws: the most sensible, mature conversation I get out of the visit is from the pre-school-aged kids. They’re not preternaturally intelligent, it’s just that the shit the adults are saying is less sensible than, I’m a rabbit!” “I Batman!” and “No, you…

My dad sold real estate in SoCal. He helped people buy and sell houses all over the city, in rich areas, poor areas, wherever people lived or wanted to live, or could afford to look to live. Sure brokers and agents specialize in areas where they have particular expertise, lots of contacts or referrals, or think…

That’s often the case, but from the bit I’ve read it doesn’t sound like it’s the case here. Not that she wasn’t vulnerable when first recruited, but she got leapfrogged over other people in the cult leader’s “harem” and apparently she’s a co-founder of the sex slave cult-within-a-cult pyramid scheme and the one who…

Here’s a fact for you to get your head around: Helping people buy and sell homes is a job that exists in places where people live, including places you have idiotic notions about.

I can guarantee there were realtors there in the worst times too. People don’t only buy and sell expensive homes.
