There has been, as I recall, all sorts of fucked up nonsense, usually involving minorities and women. Go in for one thing and oh whoops, you’re sterile now! A lot of insane shit like that. People going to the doctor’s to figure out a problem with an organ they didn’t realize that they no longer have, that kinda bullshit.
That’s one extreme way to take the comment, I guess. I worked from home for a while and I think these return to office orders are stupid as hell, largely because going to the office needs unpaid commuting time, annoyances related to needing to bring a lunch, and it takes away your ability to do small chores and stuff during the work day that might be often impossible during the evening for one reason or another.
Look, if you want to work at the beach or whatever then go for it, but the idea that California is the “envy of nations” because people can do labour at a beach is insanity.
If I’m ever envious of someone doing work in places where they should be relaxing, please kill me.
It sounds like your comment is missing some context and nuance. If an immigrant gets US citizenship the US does not then get to claim saag paneer lol
The US could have done something with indigineous food but they did some pretty awful things to those people and refuse to acknowledge much of any of their cultures.
One bump in the road though and that thing’s DONE.
It’s upsetting but I am the least surprised I could ever be. They’ve had decades of warnings and done nothing about it as things just got worse and worse and even still they refuse to admit where they are.
They genuinely think they’re boycotting for the same reason other people boycott Nazi run business. The difference is that they’re dumb as rocks and will believe whatever the angry men on TV tell them.
You’ve proven my point exactly. The only text that christians follow, the one that is front and centre of their entire ideology no matter how they choose to interpret it, is comepletely full of holes. Without the bible there is no religion. What do you honestly think Christianity looks like, and where could you even find enough information on it, if you removed the bible and all references to it?
There is nothing without the bible, and the bible itself is nothing of you refuse to obey it to the letter. If there are clear lies they must be removed or else that is an edorsement of said lies contained within, and a willful corruption of the holy text.
And the extra funny thing is that the muslims believe in the same god and they follow the rules in the book. It’s the same guy but apparently all the people who don’t even live in the birthplace of the religion get a free pass to just go off and do whatever? Sure, ok.
Sure, but why do they get to pick and choose what is more important than the rest? How do intentionally bad mistraslations for kings and personal gain provide the basis for a religion? Even the best Christians I know, who don’t force their own beliefs on others, still consider themselves to be pro-life because of the bible, or if they treat gay people with all the respect a human being deserves otherwise they still believe beung gay to be a sin. Why choose that stuff to follow but ignore the mixed cloth and tattoo parts?
You(maybe you, maybe the general “you”) don’t get to pick what part of your holy text is important or not. That’s not a religion, just a theology enthusiast with potentially questionable ideas all of their own.
If you hold a single text to be the very word of your god, and you use it to justify all that you do or do not do, then you must follow it to the letter or admit that you’re just a tourist. There is zero in between when you claim that the thing is pure and divine, cannot be questioned, and should be the basis for all your laws.
Christians just keep throwing out whole chunks of the fucking thing except all the parts that they can misinterpret and mistranslate to allow them to do awful things to people they don’t like for “reasons”.
Ok, help me understand it then.
I never said the solution was full-blown communism. God, have the barest capability of nuance.
You clearly aren’t smoking responsibly if you genuinely believe that to be true.
Capitalism creates an environment of fear and danger and promotes of level of individual responsibility that alienates people from everyone else. Even people who are well off today are afraid of losing advantages and being hung out to dry by the very same uncaring system they keep supporting.
As if they’d be counted appropriately.
Like the other guy said, it has the Grand Hub now, and he difficulty has always made sense(we’ve gotten good over a couple/few games and it’s still only high rank) but I can assure you that two Arch Tempered apexes are a lot of fun. My friend and I got rekt by Uth Duna and it took is a good while on the second try, very rewarding.
Also it’s totally ok to feel Monster Huntered out. Borderlands 4 is coming out and while I have ungodly hours in the first two and enjoyed the third well enough, I’m playing Wonderlands right now and it’s just “pretty good” despite me knowing full well that objectively it’s got cool new mechanics, a good story line, replay potential, and all that other good stuff. Oh, I’m also holding out for a 50% or greater sale because Randy Pitchford is an asshole).
Leftists basically never reach beyond what they say, and in fact there’s a lot of issues that come from centrists often being the sorry excuse for true progressiveness in most places. Conservatives, though? That slope is proven, every damn day, to be slicker than a teflon slip’n’slide coated in motor oil and full-fat butter.
There’s something deeply insulting to me about all the stories of people who have lost thousands of dollars like this. Like, I didn’t have $15 to give to charity yesterday.
I sincerely hope they simply don’t do anything. Like, too fucking bad, deal with it, no we’re not taking the signs down.
This guy shits his pants, the only power he has is what is given to him.
Yea, and an Xbox elite controller these days is $250 compared to the $30-90USD of the 8BitDo options. Absolutely wild.
People keep saying that, but 1) having a degree is not a sign of someone’s general intelligence, not even close, and 2) it absolutely has a greater effect the dumber you are.
Intelligence is curiosity and being able to have a greater degree of nuance in your thinking. It’s being self-aware, and about being able to understand transferable properties. A LOT of people, regardless of education, struggle deeply with those concepts.
