FWIW, you can support both womens’ rights AND workers’ rights simultaneously, and the resolution of both would help with this situation.

>letting fake Democrats walk all over his back

When you get 50 “Real” Democratic Senators to back you, then you can pass whatever you want.
Anything short of that number [Joe Manchin], means you pass whatever the most reluctant member is willing to tolerate.

You’re shitting on the wrong Joe in your title.

Failure rates are usually generalized as an average from use-cases.
So, when condoms have about a 13% failure rate, this doesn’t mean that having sex four times drops the aggregate failure rate to above 50%.

I think that should strongly weaken the statement of ‘it only takes one failure’, when most of these statistics…

This has an easy fix for those who find this sort of stuff uncomfortable:

Promote worker protections.

What you find uncomfortable might not directly be the fact that actions have consequences, but instead the amount of power that can be arbitrarily applied to a person. If that’s the case, we can promote BOTH “Don’t…

There is no singular authority for appropriate conversation. I feel like I shouldn’t have to tell you this.

Instead, most people do work with basic norms - in this case, making references to genocide generally requires a conversational topic at that level of tragedy.

I literally outlined the criteria.

In practice, there’s very little worthy of a comparison to fascism with a heavy dose of genocide.
Just cause the law is named after the guy doesn’t mean he can know when its usage is apt.

Everything is political.

Even the seemingly apolitical things are an affirmation of the political norms and the structures they find themselves in.

Basically every single thing that’s sold is an affirmation of the current capitalist structure, and what they do or do not censor out of their products [excessive violence…

I read somewhere that the issue is with NPC auto-queueing the bowing action.  I’m not sure about the nature of the code, but it might be a bit of a bad look if that specific action was programmed to be a bit too uniform/ubiquitous, as coded actions do tend to be.

In the context of Huawei getting cut out from Google and having to scramble to make their own OS etc., I wonder how committed Samsung is to developing its own infrastructure independent of Google.

I don’t watch baseball, but I imagine seeing empty stands takes me out of the moment, like every time I ‘notice’ the stands are empty, I’m reminded that these are strange times, so watching baseball becomes marginally less effective as a pastime to ignore the pressures of the real world.

Alternate take:

Phones and expensive screened electronics should come with an applied easily removable screen protector.  I pay upwards of a grand for it.  Give me accessories.

That’s just straight up the exchange rate, though...

I think it would be even better for an autobattler, honestly

Would be kinda cool if they pivoted to portray an alternate timeline of NY that institutes a defunded police force and emphasizes community-based mitigation.

One interpretation of talking about how “All games/[X] are Political” is that all games that do not challenge existing norms in our society generally affirm them.

For instance, there’s no actual gameplay reason why a fantasy-themed game like Castlevania generally has to have a white male protagonist, i.e. the game…

Dark Souls for Switch

We should still publish papers about it and stuff.

One issue that I have with this study is that it creates a narrative using hypothetical numbers where the math these numbers are based on ALSO come from hypothetical numbers, for instance, using numbers from positive evaluations of Sanders’ plans, which tend to be somewhat optimistic, as if we don’t expect…

Enormity doesn’t have implications of difficulty.  It directly corresponds with the size of a task and does have connotations of negative moral implications of a given task, but those aren’t necessarily embedded into the word.
