“There’s government pork and then there’s just swine.”

Wouldn’t the leg injury have been covered under Workman’s Comp rather than personal health insurance anyway?

No, they didn’t work for Activision. They built games in partnership with Sierra, which was still an independent publisher at the time.

There is a South African derogatory term that sounds a bit like “kappa” and is their local equivalent of n____r.

I mean, getting complacent Democrats replaced with stronger voices for change is a good thing. But this seems an overstatement:

Our house is a little older and doesn’t have a dishwasher. I initially missed having one, but we’ve gotten to the point that too many of our dishes wouldn’t be suitable for a dishwasher anyway.

Coincidentally enough, I just started a new playthrough of Startropics a few days ago.

That’s why the law needs to be changed...

That part of the history I wasn’t aware of. While Mengele gave the genocide a particular “mad scientist” quality (and lead to admittedly horrifying experiments), the example of history shows that it doesn’t take any formal understanding of eugenics to lead to genocide.

That’s a separate problem, but I’m not sure I understand why you’re implying that drunk driving is somehow a lesser offense compared to entering the country illegally.

It’s a matter of the punishment fitting the crime. Having your family separated from you should not be considered an appropriate punishment for simply entering the country illegally. Even if that were somehow an appropriate punishment, it still shouldn’t occur until after due process and conviction.

Anti semitism and other forms of white supremacy predate the existence of the United States. They didn’t have to “import” them from the US.

I also like that they’ve made her look much more clearly like her voice actress, Ashley Johnson.

Paul honestly gets an undeservedly bad reputation. Much of what he was saying was potentially quite progressive for his era, but still so wrapped in his culture that it seems downright regressive by this point.

One potential approach that needs more attention would be to pay servers a % commission on the price of the meal rather than have a percentage tip added on top.

All the more reason to reform those systems. At most, interrogation of a victim’s past should only ever be done by a defense attorney. Even then there should be a bar of relevance that must be met before the question can be posed directly to a victim (particularly during the public portions of a trial).

“Joy” was certainly the wrong word to use there, but I do think it is largely A Good Thing when a predator like Weinstein is tried in a real court rather than solely through the court of public opinion.

Really great comment.

Interesting use of orange juice. We’ve made a similar sauce using apple cider vinegar for the acid component.

McD’s adapts its menu to match local tastes, customs, and supply chains.
