Literally every “gun zone” ordinance I’ve ever seen includes some variant of the clause “except for on-duty police officers.” They think about this shit for more than ten seconds when they write them. 

They’re supposed to come out when their letter arrives by post-owl, obviously.

While I generally applaud cynicism in the face of corporate nonsense, there’s a difference between “let’s pay hundreds of thousands of workers next to nothing for decades” and “let’s not pay the top prize in this one event.”

No, they said she “sees the red keep and decides to make it personal.”

From another post today:

“TPUSA Member something something Turns Out He’s All White-Powery”

That will happen for some jobs regardless. They’re not going to avoid automation as long as the baristas don’t get uppity, so there’s no point in “not making waves” to try and avoid that.

The counter-argument to that is that having zero leverage for “essential, but not individually irreplaceable” people gives the company absolutely no incentive not to treat those employees as badly as the law allows.

The “real” version looks like a fucking taxidermy accident

In the lore of the show/books there have been many winters of varying lengths without the walkers being present/active. The walkers are linked to the “long night,” a potentially endless winter/night that sticks around as long as they’re the dominant force in westeros. No clue if it starts snowing in Mereen or what.

Honestly? Try it again now. The bandwidth issues are going to be the worst the night it first aired. Lot fewer people watching it now = less drag on the servers 

The broader cognitive dissonance today isn’t limited to LGBTQ+ republicans; it’s in most average republicans and what they think the party represents.

I dunno this sounds like a pretty funny Netflix original. “The Incompetents” or something 

I think this is one of those cases where there can’t be enough people calling you a fucking moron, you fucking moron. And your “doctor,” too.

I assumed not, but...well, put it this way, the company that does the card-reader gizmos for the vending machines at work used to be named “Isis.” For some reason they decided to change all the labels a couple years ago. Can’t imagine why. 

You’d think any company in the data mining/analysis business with “Cambridge” in their name would have thought to take a good hard look at re-branding recently.

Speaking from experience, if you’re the “wrong” height/proportion for your shirt size (by collar), getting an off-the-rack shirt altered is a fool’s errand. Yeah the sleeves will be the right length, but the body of the shirt is going to be a shitshow. Apparently there’s only so far they can take any given shirt…
