I’m gonna say this for the umpteenth time.

Just because you perform a task on a voluntary basis, does not mean you are an employee. The whole issue is decided by the name we classify these people, Gig, worker.

This is like trying to make the argument that anyone you hire on Task rabbit, or fiver is entitled health

That is the gun that he had.

That is the gun that he was pointing at passers-by, during a time when mass shootings were in a serious up-tick.

You have to be 21 in the state of ohio to own a handgun
You have to be 21 in the state of ohio to openly carry a hand gun
You have to be 18 to buy or use an airsoft gun without

Not a new anomaly, but an anomaly none the less. It’s not even a question.

I’m not expressing the notion that gay’s and transgender people don’t have the right to exist, or that their existence is somehow an affront, that their feelings aren’t relevant.

People are people, and everyone is different in ways that don’t

1000 people are killed by police each year, of those thousand people, the majority are white. The fact that black people are disproportionately killed by police, is not evidence of racism, just the same way that african americans have been responsible for 52% of all gun homicides over the past 40 years is not

So he heard a second hand account of something, that on it’s face is nothing out of the ordinary for someone to say in the context of film/photo editing or color correction, and decided to assume that it was meant in the worst possible manner, because lets be honest “speaking out” and “shining a light” are what PoC

The take away here should be that humanity is too fucking stupid to have the internet, and Gawker was a big part of turning it into the clusterfuck of useless information on par in quality with german schise porn.

Most people don’t want to be informed. They want to feel like their uninformed assumptions are correct.

Do we really want these rural i.e, conservative, militant, jesus loves everyone ‘cept democrats (read: commies) and queers, to have better access to the cesspool that is the internet?

Humanity has a huge blind spot when it comes to achieving goals. We see the potential in the beginning, because that’s when everything

Your own stat kind of explains why female occupied jobs are the first to go.

7.5 trillion is just a smidge over 1/3rd of the US’s GDP for 2019, which was 21.427 trillion despite the fact that women out number men 168 million to 161 million.

There has been an increase in the belief that everyone is entitled to not only

The tone of this piece reminds me of an old joke.

What do you call that useless piece of flesh around a cunt?



Joan summers.

Fuck Oprah, and every single dumbass that treats her like some kind of mythical figure.

She gave added legitimacy to anti-vaxxers
She propped up both doctor phil and doctor Oz
She fueled the idiotic diet craze among her fat, mentally deficient viewers.
The fact that she is successful because she found a niche among bored

According to a study on validated voters for the 2016 election, 14% of black men voted for trump, while 0% of black women did.

While more official reporting puts the overall black vote trump received at a mere 8%. Given the fact that 45% of people didn’t vote in 2016, and that 10% of the population, regardless of

Yeah, you’ve clearly thought that one through. Truly ADA compliant stalls are 4-6 times the size of regular stalls. It is essentially a bathroom within a bathroom. Whether you want to look at it from the standpoint of cost, or the ability to actually be able to serve the traffic usage in a given space, it’s just not

That’s what “super resolution” is. DLSS is upscaling that was implemented to claim “8k gaming” first, something that effectively doesn’t exist in the wild, and won’t become common place for years.

DLSS looks decent with moderate frame rates, when you get into higher framerates, image quality suffers noticeably. It is

How does a mean word end up with an arrest?
While everyone ignores the fact that, during a global pandemic, someone hopped into a car and drove halfway across the country to....do what exactly? I think it’s safe to assume that it wasn’t anything that anyone’s life depended on. Though i can easily say, that if anyone

1 quart = 0.94 kilograms
1 tablespoon of salt = 17.07 grams
You can raise the boiling point of water by .5c adding 58 grams of salt per kilogram of water.

4 quarts of water = 3.78 kilograms
58 grams of salt x 3.78 = 219 grams
219/17.07 = 12.82 tablespoons of salt

This gives you a salinity of 5.7% while the ocean has a

The best thing you can do when trying to extract flavors from herbs (particularly when they’re intended for pizza) is put them into some olive oil (you can use any kind of oil, but olive oil is my go to for all things pizza)

There’s a couple ways you can go about this, you can either stuff some herbs into an air tight

Transparency for things like this is a double edged sword. It makes vocally annoying groups feel better in the short term, while it runs the likely risk of allowing ill intentioned people the ability to game the system, rendering the whole exercise moot.

It’s like the FBI demanding that platforms code in a back door

That isn’t the benchmark for designating independent contractor.

When you are an employee, be it a Walmart greeter or an executive of a large company,
there are standards that you must rise to in order to even be considered for employment, be it education, experience or skill,
you are required to work specific hours,

Men were redacted for the simple reason that, in the current climate of reactionary emotions parroted across social media, an accusation, or even the assumption of wrong doing, regardless of any kind of evidence, is enough to obliterate lives.

If someone is proven to have committed a crime, your outrage has merit.

While i don’t care for his politics, i care even less about the hurt feelings of fragile far left cry babies who think the most important point of consideration of any topic is how they, as an individual, feel about it.

Political mud slinging has been around forever. It applies to every one in politics, regardless of
