you completely ignored the question lol we know that you know, and that we know, but the comment was saying that most people don't.

> Employees have more utility if they get an abortion This is exactly what people find gross about it. This is like defending walmart for avoiding hiring full time employees so they don't have to provide health care because you thin

It's always pretty funny to see companies like raytheon participate in pride parades, or companies that don't give any kind of realistic maternity leave talk about roe v wade.

I think the whole point of the article is that you don't need to do anything crazy to lose weight or be healthy, you really just have to eat healthier foods and move around more in general. A lot of people think a diet is this magical

So if someone like elon musk or peter theil did something like this, they gave $419 million to a bunch of red states all while aggressively promoting trump, would you still claim it's "not damning"? This is an example of an e

Haha, whoopsie! I love funny little mistakes between governmental leaders and billion dollar corporations like this. Good thing this isn’t regular citizens using an encrypted messaging app, because then we’d have a real problem.

This attitude is common in my city as well. So many people seem to think that if you cannot park directly in front of a business then that business will fail.

I don't know. I am all for businesses having that freedom, but I don't really think banks are normal businesses because there are no other options. But I do lean towards "no" to your question, because if we say it's

I would prefer we didn't allow payment processors to categorize anyone, period. It is way too much power. If people want to buy porn, let them. If people want to donate to bail funds, let them. If people want to donate to nazis, let th

Your comment illustrates my point exactly , and I think your attitude is why payment processors will always remain as powerful as they are. My position is that payment processors should not be the arbiters of what is allowed to be paid f

Well everyone was cheering them on when they were canceling the nazis so I think any notion that payment processors should be neutral is dead at this point.

Dropbox is already used to “sell” adult content. Creators accept payments on something like cashapp, and then send the customer a link to a shared dropbox folder. It does make me wonder what they will change now that they support that direc

Why not include that in the article then?

Yeah I clicked the link as well, and I disagree with your conclusion. I poked around the rest of the site, and I am pretty sure they included that because their audience likes to read about why white people are bad. Would it just be a poor

Ha - I came here to post pretty much the same thing. It always makes me wonder which came first. Did sci-fi/literature-at-large start using crystals this way after we started using them for time purposes, or did humans just always thin

Hilariously, in both threads I have not seen a single comment claiming that "spacex is a private company and free speech doesn't apply and blah blah blah".

It just seems like it'd be such a huge win from a PR angle, even if the bills fail. You could literally post screenshots of the bills in their entirety on twitter showing how simple they are (student debt is abolished, college is free,

I make this comment in a lot of threads, but if democrats wanted to fix this problem, they would write legislation for it and try to get it passed. Instead, all we get (from both parties) are massive 1000+ page bills that include a bunch of

But they still have the debt, right? It's great if it's not counted against them, but to say "it doesn't matter" seems unfair - won't they still be hounded by collections agencies and potentially sued?

Ha. This is actually exactly what happened at my university. Everyone used to use them as sleds when it would snow, and then the university got rid of them. In retrospect it seems pretty ridiculous - any claim of "money lost" shou

The whole reason he filed the lawsuit, and thus why we are reading about this, is because he was fired and he feels it was because he tried to speak out about the cult. Did anyone in this thread read any of it lol

Very cool. Unfortunately this is something that can’t really be tested outside of production.

You could try intermittent fasting instead. I have mostly given up on portion control because I find it very difficult as well. Generally, I only eat one meal a day (dinner), and I think it's a good alternative. I don't (always) p
