“student punches another student and gets suspended”
I don’t see any victim blame whatsoever here… Why is your comment in the negative? There’s something unspoken behind conversations like this and I have absolutely no clue what exactly that is…
I understand the downvotes for comments along the lines of “there’s two sides to any argument”… I understand the victim blaming aspect of that, but “the bully got suspended”? I’m missing something…
Anyone?
Shuttering their central bank and converting to dollars… Meaning they aren’t actually getting rid of a central bank, but are rather converting to a foreign central bank.
Ya know… Maybe they really did have phenomenally low COVID numbers this whole time due to their aggressive lockdown policies. Maybe they “flattened the curve” very effectively, to the point that the main surge got pushed out this far.
That’s like saying we should all drive faster to help identify shortcomings in traffic signals or vehicle safety features…
Sounds like a flimsy ass false pretense to chase profits. Just my opinion, mind, but that doesn’t sound like something someone would posit at face value.
Kickback thing is kinda a reason to keep the ads tbh… Plenty of docs will 100% insist that the best med for something is whatever brand is plastered all over their calendar, calculator, desk toys, office decorations, etc…
Having ads kinda gives people options their doc wont mention because kickbacks.
They supposed to pass a law that says “businesses can’t be shitty”? That’s rather subjective…
They’re after live nation for two reasons… One, because monopoly, and two, because live nation made the mistake of using the term “fees” a little too capriciously and started looking like an alphabet agency.
Government don’t want anyone horning in on their monopoly on fees, now do they? If those “fees” are in fact even remotely legit, then they ought to be going into uncle Sam’s pockets… Ya know?
CONCORD, N.H. (AP) —
Several people were shot Friday at the New Hampshire state psychiatric hospital, police said.
State police said there were “multiple victims” in an alert released via social media late Friday afternoon. Further details weren’t immediately available.

Karate Champ. I probably spent hundreds of dollars on that game and never got past the third match, and don’t have the slightest clue what would make a round kick score a full point or a half point… You could come up with strats that usually worked, but nothing ever worked reliably… Mortal Kombat you could come up with strats that would 100% get you double flawless, but it’s grandpappy would toss all manner of randomness at your ass and fuck you up pretty reliably :)
This is clearly and overtly a decision intended to protect the ability of government to conduct warrantless searches by purchase or subpoena of third party information…
An equivalent tech that would put text messages of government personnel into corporate hands would be labelled a serious threat and addressed with specific legislation.
Their point has validity on any scale though… I’m generally not a fan of “zero tolerance” in any context, but the context here is ostensibly an intentionally equalized playing field, meaning that a zero tolerance policy on any aspect is inherently fair… So there’s really no excuse for accepting environmental hazards…
The assertion that allowance of additives (any additives that pose environmental/spectator hazards) has no benefit other than “car go fast”, is a solid point.
Gonna see Chinese junk bonds hitting the shelves at Walmart… Lol
Maybe someone should sue them for overly tight integration of their browser into their os…
Might work, I mean, it worked once before, lol
Indicted for saying things…
Call me not a fan of this trend. I think it’s being commonly accepted because certain people think anyone in that party is a racist homophobic fascist Nazi, so it’s ok to ignore the fact that speech isn’t a crime, but at some point, this common acceptance is going to be abused by the ones it’s currently being directed at, and they will direct it back, likely a hundred fold.
For a specific example of what I’m talking about, id point out the infamous “N word”, and the banning of Samuel Clemens from school libraries. Not an unreasonable thing to do, but the fact that book bans were acquiesced to in the name of political correctness paved a road to the current hell that is going on with very broad concepts being put under the same crosshairs, which isn’t reasonable at all, but bears enough similarity to be viable (and I’m not saying that as a matter of opinion, these bans are being implemented in reality)

I think python is actually the oldest on that list… ??
What year is it meme
Lol… “Study shows what we want it to show”
It’s a comparison between drivers and riders using four cherry picked criteria that would most likely generate the predetermined narrative. It’s science for hire.
Drivers run the gamut from tree huggy beetle driver to Ford f950 with the extra black smoke package and factory standard swastika paint job, and cyclists, while on a narrower scale (you’ll never see mr super smoker on a Schwinn…), still have a similar scale and can absolutely be assholes.
The dissociation part is accurate, but it’s not a matter of vehicle type or size, because commercial drivers are commonly on the same end of the awareness scale as motorcyclists. It’s not about personality, it’s about risk.
Because a corporation can arrest, convict, and jail someone…
I think someone might be putting a little too much stock in a cease and desist letter
If they banned all alcohol for everyone, its indiscriminate, and I would not consider it to be discrimination (I’d consider it a bad idea based on the obvious). In your example, a ban on wine, but not whiskey, with the publicly stated intention of reducing alcohol intake among women, would be the equivalent, and I’d absolutely consider that misogynistic. In the case of a wine ban, yes, it would be immoral to impose that ban, because it would be targeted at women specifically.
They aren’t banning cigarettes. They’re banning menthols, and the publicly stated intent is to affect use of cigarettes among minorities. The policy is specifically intended to affect a demographic. Not because I say so, or because I think it does… it’s what they’re citing as the basis of the policy… they published it as such.
The pragmatic solution is to ban cigarettes. That would still affect the minorities disparately, but it’s no longer an inherently racist proposal at that point, because it’s about tobacco use period, not just the tobacco use specific to the minorities.
Sounds like some people have some emotional damage…
