I want a robot to eat for me.

The "we can't afford to raise wages without cutting jobs or passing the costs onto the consumer" argument annoys me to no end. Exactly how much do fast food CEOs make again? Oh that's right, WAY MORE THAN ENOUGH. So, so annoying.

I hate this argument : "Raise the wages, you will lose your job!"

Thats the most ridiculous thing i have read on this page bar the sentence sabu received because Jeremy Hammond actually accepted and took his 10 year punishment......and has not snitched on anyone......and remains in a jail...fighting for a cause he believes in...because someone like sabu decided to rat out all his so

I know it got spoiled for you, and that is extremely shitty. Please take my word for it though, even though you know it's coming like I did, it's still so much cooler than you think. If you're looking for a quintessential "fuck yeah" movie moment, it doesn't get much better than that.

Huh. There is no "right" when it comes to bans or pushing the govt to make people do things? Ever heard of the 18th Amendment? Of course you haven't. Idiot. Also, that little individual mandate from the ACA? It was born back in the 90's, when Republicans were trying to come up with an alternative to the Clinton

Lactic acid is not an antibiotic. It is bactericidal, but that is not the same thing. Nonetheless, point taken.

Not a surprise. I'm grateful to be getting any sort of stipend while in grad school, but it's scary how little is left after all the costs. Especially rent (over half of my after-tax income).

Yeah, that guy. But he'll have drones. That shine floodlights into your eyes.

Don't forget hired goon! We can't have the lower classes invading our gated communities, can we? Feeding everyone is just socialism and wealth redistribution, wot wot.

Scrubbing the taints of the wealthy with a toothbrush.

Is attraction really as cut and dry as you think it is? Could you really not be attracted to "the perfect man for you" because of his hair color? Have you never grown attracted to someone after spending some time with them and falling in love with their personality, then they become the sexiest person ever to you?

Individually, no, but when it represents a cultural way of looking at bodies and desirability, yes. Well, not shamed, but unpacked. I do think you're highlighting something really salient that gets overlooked — the idea that we all think, hey, our preferences are our preferences, we like what we like. But preferences

What I liked was that he is pointing out in writing this (and I assume HE wrote it here) is that its not even that guys aren't ATTRACTED to these women, but that somehow its been decided as a "status" thing that they don't want to be "seen" with a fat woman. This seems to bear out in studies (or I should say

Except the tape in question is far more likely to look like this, than like a stupid 80's audio cassette.

There are those who have made similar warnings about SETI and contacting alien worlds. Any extraterrestrial beings who have the capability of reaching this planet in person will very likely be capable of destroying its inhabitants. When the time comes for humanity to travel to other worlds, who is to say we'd be any

It doesn't matter that he's not the most qualified person to talk about this. Only a hand full of futurist academics and nerds listen to those people. He's using his position in the global spot light to bring much needed attention to this matter. The whole world is listening to every word he says, and he knows this,

Someone fix this guy's sarcasm detector.

Mon Mothma was never named on screen, didn't have more than a few lines of dialogue, and who the fuck are you kidding with Oola?

Hey, there were several female characters in the OT. There was Mon Mothma and Oola.
