They have invested a lot in expensive real estate (that they now can’t sell). That’s why they want you back in the office. That’s the answer.

Every time the old men in charge of my company suggest that my team switch from voluntary hybrid to mandatory 7 day a month hybrid, they spout total bullshit like ‘working in-person strengthens bonds and increases happiness in workgroups.’ I always have two responses. First, please cite the studies that show in-person…

So, roughly 17 million commercial flights in a year, with 300 near collisions. That is 0.0018%.

Yes, “near collisions” is a great attention grabber, in 2022 there were nearly 43,000 US automobile related deaths, or ~ 8274 per week. 

Doesn’s Canadian new legislation apply to Twitter as well? 

to somehow incentivize reporters to write news directly onto Twitter itself.

Lovely, now conservatives are going to want to ban radio usage of all kinds.  They won’t understand that it was just a weird analogy.

This is directly (another) Republican murder in intertwining ways.

Somebody needs to explain how a "good guy with a gun" could have prevented this.

Not mentioned in this story: Copas is from Kentucky, so she was presumably unaware that El Paso is a border town and signs for Juarez just mean that you’re in El Paso, not that you’re on the way to have your 48-year-old organs harvested, or whatever nonsense she inhaled from cable news.

I don’t use these filthy websites. Full of nothing but trans “women”. Men in dresses. Soft, feminine men in red lipstick a black choker and a huge penis in panties. It makes me sick thinking about them every single day.
