oh noes she failed an impossible purity test, we’d better eat her

Are you fucking stupid or do you just enjoy the flavor of cheap leather?

The flipside is that technology which can do that, no implant, is an external device which can read your mind, which means anyone who can get physical power over you, can trivially read your mind (whereas installing an implant would be an extremely dangerous and time-consuming procedure) and really extract huge…

You must have had a very productive growing season in order to construct all these straw men.

It’s so frustrating. You see stories like this where people are like “Don’t report it! It could ruin someone’s life! What if he’s different now?” meanwhile over on all the sexual assault stories it’s “How did they get away with it for so long?”

There are ass holes and then there are bullies who sexually harass and torment their special needs classmates. You are trivializing and bringing in hypotheticals to try and support you week ass argument that this behavior is what? Acceptable? Not serious, because this happened in high-school? Flawed logic and hyper-def…

Your principal is fucking stupid

Does she not understand that the only reason anyone pays attention to her is her dad? I mean, that is her only qualification. Finding an Asian or Asian-American cohost with more qualifications than Meghan McCain would not be especially hard.

He discussed how getting into it can be expensive and inaccessible for many…

For anyone who has the privilege to still work 100% from home, you absolutely are in total control of not getting the virus until immunization. It’s always been my plan to do that and then lord it over everyone in 2028 when we discover all the bizarre long term organ problems...

They were probably larger more expensive units. I lived in an old apartment building and each unit had its own small cheapass gas heater, range, and hot water heater. Seemed like one or another of them was always breaking.

I’ve never heard of an electric coil range under a glass surface. That seems quite silly, but I suppose I’ll eat crow on that one. Mea culpa.

“Don’t listen to your anecdotal evidence! Listen to my anecdotal evidence!”

That’s not a mistake. Obviously, specifics are different not just by company, but by segment, role, etc - but far more often than not, if you have a permanent or semi-permanent role that is filled by a constant rotation of contractors, that role is costing the company more than having an actual employee in that role.…
