“Alright, one punch? Just one? Come on! I’ll pay my taxes this year!”

Please, you can get a lot done in 10 seconds.

“Please focus on me as I read War and Peace aloud and pay no mind to Father #3 who is totally not sneaking up behind Larry Nassar right now.”

As follow up I am very glad my dad didn’t go to jail, but my view of him wasn’t hurt by his actions. In fact it felt good to have someone care that much about me. I don’t know the history of the dad in this case. In my father’s it was a reaction not his character all the time. He did have temper, but was not a…

Counterpoint.

I think you punch that fucker for what he did to his daughters. It’s worth whatever small punishment you get. You clearly just don’t understand.

He forgot the ultimate dad rule, better to ask forgiveness than permission. 

Hopefully the next victim’s father brings a telescoping baton to get the extra three feet or so of range he needed.

Next victim’s father...

Margraves: “Your Honor, can you grant me 5 minutes alone in a locked room with this...demon?” 

1.) Is it bad that I was hoping that Dad was going to get some good licks in on Larry before anyone could intervene?

They can offer them jobs AND a living wage. The idea that they can’t is nonsense. Absolute nonsense.

Bootlickers never fail to amaze me. What do they get out of it?

Do you think WORK should involve having your body functions regulated? Should an employee have to wear Depends because they can’t take a bathroom break like a 9-5 employee can?

Your country is doomed because too many of your people thing that these kind of work conditions are acceptable.

It’s like the…

The cost of filling the orders and shipping overseas would be pretty expensive, not to mention the impossibility of keeping a same day, 1-day, or 2-day delivery window, so I doubt that will ever happen. Most likely they’ll find a way for automatize it more and just take out the need for as many bodies.

for the same reason local economies collapsed in coal country - because we’re automating a ton of jobs out of existence, and rather than taking that additional productivity and using it to give workers universal healthcare or a universal basic income, we’re letting jeff bezos buy small nations and have 15,000$ of…

Let me guess, your work life has been shitty and you resent anyone fighting for anything better.

Amazon is a bittersweet thing for me. Damn if that Amazon Prime and Subscribe and Save is not convenient as hell, especially for a working mom like me. But I know that Amazon is the reason so many stores are closing down and people are losing their jobs, only to be replaced by jobs like the above. Why can’t we ever…
