Of course taxpayers get return out of higher education, that’s why I’m in favor of income based repayment with forgiveness capped at residential tuition at each person’s homestate flagship university for an undergrad equivalent of hours.

Bluntly that’s ridiculous.  It’s an entirely voluntary choice to saddle yourself with that ludicrous amount of debt with little hope of what you are investing in providing you the means to pay it off and taxpayers shouldn’t have to subsidize that sort of braindead fucking stupidity.

This is a neo-con bugaboo.

There’s a lot of structural differences between PPP loans and student loan debt forgiveness that made the PPP a much more effective use of federal stimulus dollars and also significantly more equitable than you might think at first blush than student loan debt forgiveness.

It’s right there in your observation.  EA thought the whole thing was going to be a big deal and then all of a sudden it wasn’t.  

These layoffs come a month after EA also cancelled the Apex Legends mobile spin-off, as well as an in-development Battlefield mobile game. The studio working on the latter, Industrial Toys, which was purchased by EA in 2018, was shuttered as a result. Last year, the publisher of FIFA and Madden also significantly…

As a majority of normal Americans understand it, a D&C is not an abortion because an abortion is generally considered, by a majority of people who are neither online freakazoid losers nor forced birth evangelical zealots, to be the voluntary termination of a viable pregnancy, something that most of said normal people…

So when the first one came on PC, I picked it up on sale and never got around to it. Then this one came out and I thought “I really should get back around to playing the first one!”

As usual, you’re wrong.

There’s nothing more Christina Applegate than raging against the dying of the light instead of just fading quietly into a well earned quiet and as comfortable as she can be made battle with MS.

The implication that it’s not imperialism if it doesn’t involve colonialism is disingenous

Oh, just their funding, is that all? Once again we come back to a tautology. If you can’t turn on the lights, power your development hardware and software and hire creative talent, then you won’t make the video game, therefore the only people who would ever make a video game funded by Russian investors would be people…

It shouldn’t be surprising that game studios owned by people in totalitarian countries where speaking out against the government is a good way to get arrested ... don’t speak out against the government. It’s kind of, tautological.

The incidence of AFAB seeking transition care is generally much lower, so it follows that it’s more of a non-issue people aren’t too interested in discussing.

But whatever, Paramount, just pay the women—it’ll be worth it.

Why win by cobbling together singles, walks and one or two extra base hits into 4 runs while giving up three earned runs when you could win by pitching a no hitter and hitting a bunch of 550 feet dingers?

Okay this all sounds buuuut hear me out .... it would be pretty cool to be able to start your stories with “When I was working as a sex cult lieutenant...”

Every time Fox News has suffered a major scandal, it has lost viewership.  Right wing media is way down from it’s heyday.  Rush Limbaugh used to have 20 million listeners a day in addition to Fox News existing and having much higher ratings for Hannity, O’Reilly and others.  A lot of that is that people get their news…

Well, yeah but that’s because the viewers still think Carlson genuinely believes everything he says.
