Where’s the horror movie about websites making articles into slideshows? That would be the most chilling one of them all.

“We feel collective bargaining is comparatively slow”

Unspoken: “Because we can immediately say no to any requests when collective bargaining isn’t present.”

God, the response is full of BS. I can hear her voice trembling through the on-screen text. Shaking as she sees slaves removing shackles.

“We fully support unionization (not that we can stop it at this point), so here’s a bunch of crap lacking context that hopefully stops all others of you from unionizing. Hope it works”

Translation of the company statement. “Now that you formed a union we are going to do whatever we can to hinder it and make it as slow and difficult as possible so that others don’t try to set up a union."

To be fair being able to say to your employees: “This is how it is. If you don’t like it, tough!” is quite efficient.

“We think a direct dialogue between company and employees is the most productive route.”

That response is boilerplate nonsense. The company is always the one slowing down negotiations and the CBA is always dated to the start of negotiations.

“We think a direct dialogue between company and employees is the most productive route.

Yeah, there’s like a single layer *at most*. Any fall was likely to just push them aside and transfer most of the force directly to the floor. 

The year I went to Glastonbury, this is EXACTLY what the portaloos looked like, except, you know, far worse. But more than anything else, the shit rose up above the level of the seat, and that is a memory I will never lose.

See this I find a little weird, and not in the outrage sense, but the article about Adriana Chechik makes zero mention of her being a (technically still active) pornstar, while this article constantly mentions Sasha’s porn career even though she is over a decade removed from it. I dunno, it kind of rubbed me (hah!)…

Yeah you can ser people standing around it, the "pit" is at about knee level.  I feel like these are supposed to have one of those thick gymnastic mats under the foam and the foam is not the primary safety feature.

Had to rename my pup because there were too many Tuckers and it was confusing to him.

You have a valid point. I don’t know the answer on how could it happen alas.

I’m sorry - I read The Conuring and immediately thought of someone being terrorized by small parrots. Thank you! I needed the chuckle.

I’ve always wanted a Prequel to Event Horizon. I love any and all space movies, hell, and overall creepy shit. So event horizon checked every box. I want to see what happened. Before the movie. 

In all of my life, I don’t think I’ve ever seen public hatred of a fictional character worse than that of Barney. Not even the hate of Jar Jar Binks reached the levels of sheer loathing that was lobbed at Barney at its height.

Look at it! Photoshop be damned, we need to go back to the days of cutting and gluing bits of paper onto other bits of paper

Yes, I’m sure whatever evolves to replace humanity via the same violent Darwinian evolutionary methods will be infinitely more benevolent than we are.
