with a party that has a stupid amount of purity tests, and in a state that’s red, being caught in a room with meth is enough to end his political career.

he already had a little baggage during his campaign.

i voted for him. but looking forward, if he were to run again, he would not be successful; and i need this state…

Not sure I want him back. I will never look at him the same way again. I was was an admirer.

I don’t mean this as an excuse, but more of a question of universality: is there a “professional” field that doesn’t involve “crunches”? I work in healthcare. We’re in one now with COVID-19. We end up in one every year with seasonal flu (which we’re also still in). My 12 hour shifts routinely end up 14 hours long, and…

Yawn. I understand your crunch articles do good numbers, but this isn’t news, if you work for any company that is near the top of their respective industries. I work extra hours at the end of every month, my wife “crunches” four times a year during quarterly reports, and my best friend “crunches” by working 12 hour day…

You know the answer to this

Apples to oranges comparison. Hourly, salary, commission, and service all have pros and cons that favor certain conditions. I am paid hourly. A waiter’s pay is determined by factors other than time spent on their shift. During something like this I am still churning out the same quantity of work if I am in the…

Will my level of service received go up commensurately with the extra tip??

As much as they complain service people like waiters wouldn’t want it any other way. As it stands, whenever a restaurant raises prices that theoretically is a raise for them. And it goes directly into their pocket. They don’t have to share it in the form of taxes to pay for public services like the rest of us. Not to…

Why is it during rough times there is always a push made to give more of your money away to service workers? Snowy out, tip more, hot out, tip more, virus floating around, tip more. Give it a break. I, along with most other people have to work under these conditions too. Same goes for sales people whose pay is tied to…

And while all of this is nice, none of this undoes any of Bloomberg’s racist policy as New York City’s mayor.

Not so much “for Biden” but certainly not for Sanders.

All introspection on FFXIII does is make me remember how deeply and irrevocably flawed it is. And I still don’t understand why people like it. Do they simply have no taste? Do they like it out of pity? Are they just in denial?

I could write a rebuttal but really so many of the points have been covered already. I think the thing to note is that if FFXIII was actually a good game it wouldn't need a defense. It wouldn't need a laundry list of excuses for its numerous flaws. It would be able to stand on its merits, not fall over unless you give…

Enjoy being estranged from your own father because of what a vile excuse for a human being you’ve turned out to be.

No

I tried pointing out Joe Biden obviously has dementia.

>Sanders does lead Biden with younger voters 18-34, who make up 21 percent of Tuesday’s electorate

This is why you hire saavy political operatives to be a senior adviser and not “woke” pseudo-anarchist artists who’s biggest benefit, apparently, is being black and loud.

I mean they’re the only advisers you guys would bend over backwards to make excuses for, so....

Never go back. If you disappeared, you did it for a reason. If the reason was you, that’s your tough luck, don’t go round stirring up someone else’s life to make yourself feel better. If the reason was them, it probably hasn’t changed, and you need to stay gone. U-turns on life’s highway are verboten.
