I hate to say it but I’m somewhat glad as a resident. This isn’t the right move, or the moral move, but taking decriminalization to mean “do nothing” was equally immoral in its own way. No drug user was ever helped by a jail cell. Nor was a

Yeah I clearly read this the wrong way. That is my bad. > "divinely inspired" is meaningless. As for "so easy a child can understand it", what's your basis for saying so? It’s been a minute but “so easy a child c

I don’t know the background of the author but it reads like Christian apologetics. Understanding language is important but this entire post softens the accepted point to something more easily swallowed. Was the Bible sexist? Or homophobic?

Lame excuse from Apple but the DoJ is also picking the lamest argument to prosecute Apple over. Feels very performative, especially in an election year. The DoJ could choose something with teeth but that would require actually wanting to re

Something is deeply wrong in America. Speaking as someone who finds myself close to the edge at times. My whole generation is on Prozac (myself included). Self-medication is rampant (myself included but improving). There’s a general hopeles

Ahhh I was about to post the same. I had never been in a landscape like that. It’s really mind-bending being out on the playa at night. Oregon is such a beautiful state.

It’s not good enough to run a business that supports you, your family, and your employees families anymore. Everything has to be the next billion-dollar big idea that’ll make the books. Even small businesses have the feel of soul-less big b

While this article resonates with my experience, it makes me want to consider trying to move into “leadership”. Like the author said, it’s usually a bunch of clowns who are paid way too much money to do jack. Sounds cushy if you’re willing

The US has been in war my entire life. I'm over this crap. Feels so dystopian to me. War is peace.

This is especially concerning because many businesses use Docusign for job paperwork. If you want/need a job and they use Docusign there’s no getting around this. If you need to eat you’re forced to sign away your data to train AI.

Celebrating/wanting cultural erasure in the name of liberal thought blows my mind. If people want a festival for having brown eyes have at it. People such as myself have no cultural or religious ties to anything. My heritage is “Americ

I've used these lines several times without a first-class ticket and I've never had my boarding group checked. Nobody cares. It's all the same security. If you get "caught" just play confused.

I give Marcia Lucas so much credit. Always overshadowed by George but the first two films are great because of her influence. And her ability to control her husband. Star Wars got self-indulgent after she left.

I just turned 30. If I can’t afford a house in the next 10 years I’m going to be a lifelong renter. Why get a 30 year mortgage at 40, to only pay it off at 70 and then die in two decades? It feels like the wrong thing to do but…I really don

This struck me as weird too but I didn’t want to bring it up. There is a lot of racism associated with how drugs are viewed and handled in the US today. That needs taken into account. We need to keep that information alive. At the same time
