The “racist” thing is a bit much. Ant-man - thief. Wanda - killer. NAtasha - killer. Hulk - killer. Iron Man - well, if one considers world-wide arms dealers, then he killed lots and lots of brown people. Let’s not even get started on the crazy white fascists, etc.

It’s not a smokescreen. The execs are foregoing liquid cash, presumably to provide more room for payroll. That’s a real sacrifice, because right now, the stock isn’t worth anything and likely can’t be sold.

There’s no way to dance around the cruelty of many of the laws awaiting the SC trigger. Republicans, and that includes Republican women, regardless of their personal histories, want to deny women control of all aspects of reproductive health. They are going to go after contraception, and no matter what elected…

Well, there was the pesky cultural climate during the initial era of super-hero creation. The characters were drawn as straight because LGBTQ content would never make it to consumers; maybe Wonder Woman (DCU) had some clear queer overtones, but overall, publishing companies had no incentive, even if they had interest,…

No joke - I had a brain freeze and simply couldn’t remember the term, “Gypsy cab”, although that’s not a term one should use any longer. Anyway, in an effort to find the term, I googled “fake taxi”. At work. I was saved only by the fact that I had two other people in my office who couldn’t remember either.

Most people have misapprehensions about WC. The dead employee’s family will receive statutory compensation for his fatal accident. I am not hip to how MI WC law works with regard to fatalities, but the family isn’t going to walk away with nothing.

whoever said, “Best available Prius”, wins.

This women likely has off-the-charts psychiatric issues. People don’t have to be physically abusive or even verbally abusive to be abusers - a “serial fabulist” puts people in a different reality, and the wakeup call can be really jarring. Imagine being the vector for a serial liar who raised thousands from one’s…

Maybe if it was black and maintained?

You might want to acknowledge that there are poor white women who get the same unworkable advice. You might want to simply state that moving away from friends and family and a job simply because maybe 30% of the people in the state voted for some close-minded pricks is a pretty big ask.

Given that we don’t have a fascist system of government, and given that opposition to the government is absolutely no the same as being anti-fascist, these guys aren’t anti-fascist. Rather, they’re big fans of the last guy, who made no secret of his own fascist inspiration. 

C’mon - I’m pretty agnostic about Fox as an actress, but no one can ignore the wildly sexist coverage and casting she has endured throughout her career. She has also been pretty consistent in calling out mistreatment. She has no responsibility to perfectly articulate the totality of a social problem.

Several issues at play.

I’m a little puzzled by this whole affair, but several things seem to have come out that aren’t disputed, among them that the abuse she alleged was not and could not be verified; that she abused him, confirmed by multiple witnesses; that asking people if they really intended to put their metaphors into practice makes…

Stipulating that these particular guys are idiots - it’s not too difficult to process why guys who dig this shit feel marginalized. It’s perfectly possible to like bad guitar music, monster trucks and wrestling and still be for equal treatment for all. Too many articles though, lead off with the premise that if men…

Unless it’s a diesel Mack truck, I’m no tbuying anything with 250k miles.

Corporations aren’t governments. I don’t disagree that it would be nice if corporations reflected my and your liberal worldviews. The challenge is that politics are transient, but customers are forever - whereas you and I might not see the opportunity cost of publicly repudiating the political (read: bigoted) beliefs…

“I want to do anything I want”, is an ok operating philosophy if you’re a single person with no familial attachments. If your mother still loves you, you might not want her to spend her golden years feeding you with a spoon and bathing you with a sponge, so maybe not so much with the dumb shit. If you’re married or…

Man, when these were new, they were awesome. In 1989-1990, a manual, huge sedan that was an (for the time) affordable rocket ship was a very cool thing. These were also a little understated, so you had a business car that would blow the doors off more than a few cars on the road. They rode great, shifted great, even…

I don’t think so. One guy was persuaded (however he was persuaded) that he was wrong and that he should rectify that wrong. Chapek may not be the bravest man in the world, but he’s not paid to be brave, but to minimize any disturbance to shareholder value; once he saw that he had disproportionately pissed off…
