I was about 25-30% of the time for 15 years, with most trips in the 2-4 week range at a time, although I did have a few 6-7 week ones. I figured I spent about 4-ish calendar years away from home, but I did get to work in over 30 countries. I stopped traveling as a primary aspect of my job six years ago. There are some…
Counterpoint: I’ve been at my current company (now a Fortune 500, although it was far from it when I started) for the last 21 years (after several previous years at various much smaller companies). That means I now get 5 weeks of vacation a year (actually, I got that after 15 years here, but that’s where the “extra…
And I’m also not talking about a few tenths of a percentage point GPA difference, but the common cases of affirmative action admissions being well below the bar that everybody else has to meet, and how that has a negative effect on the very people it’s supposed to help (a typical instance of myopia and failure to…
The Department of Energy was created during the oil crisis for the express purpose of lowering US dependence on foreign oil. That’s it. That’s the totality of its mission, which it then spent the next 40 years effectively not doing.
The international scouting movement is governed by an overarching body which requires all scouting organizations to profess a belief in God, with grandfathered exemptions in a few countries who were early entrants into scouting before this was a hard requirement (France being one of them, for instance). “God” can be…

Came here to see/say this. Was not disappointed.
“it was very clear to me during the prospective students weekend that they thought the only way someone like me could have gotten into Harvard was because of affirmative action.”
FYI, since I just watched it yesterday: Carrie Fisher’s hosting appearance on SNL in 1978 had her showing up in full Leia costume, and the monologue segued straight into a skit where she beamed down (in a weird Star Trek crossover kind of way, since transporter technology doesn’t even exist in the Star Wars universe)…
TIL it’s possible for me to have never seen a single episode of a show popular enough to be on the air for 12 years.
“It also mentions how the lager prey lived in colder waters”
I thought he was doing a tasteless impression of the reporter he had a beef with and mocking his disability, until I read this story from the Daily Mail which contains video clips dating back to 2005 which clearly show that Trump consistently portrays a “flustered person” (including himself, in a Larry King interview)…
I actually knew that, but was making a joke for fun, as evidenced by the “winky” at the end of it, random-internet-asshole-who-must-be-great-fun-at-parties...
