The only thing I can think of is maybe the '91 case wasn't adjusted for inflation? That would make it a little over 1 mil today

Except in Paris. Paris, people just want an excuse to be a dick to you.

Lmao. A twitch streamer I watch took a trip to Europe a few weeks ago and Paris was the one place he hated because everyone there were assholes

Oh cool someone else who has no idea what they're talking about! I'm in the education industry and work closely with 7 schools in my local district. No one is grooming or indoctrinating children, those are conservative buzz words. They're simply teaching the kids that if they don't feel like they fit the gender norms that it's okay.

Speaking up as the director for a smaller nonprofit after school care company. There's lot to consider here. Our main facility is located in unincorporated LA county because it's nestled right between two proper cities. For the schools we have our program at the minimum wage is currently $15.50/H, but our main office falls under the unincorporated LA county rules (even though we operate in a lower income area and this min wage is intended for places like Beverly Hills when we're over an hour north of LA) so the dozen workers here we have to pay $16.90 minimum. We love our employees though so we often try to beat minimum wage for them, averaging about $17/H over our 60 employees.

This still leaves us with a higher cost for our services than we'd like - I think our breakdown is about $6.50 per hour which is still a lot for our local economy and we often give discounts. The child care resource center helps but the qualifications are ridiculous to meet for some reason so even though over half of our families should qualify, only about a fourth actually receive funding. Because of all these things, I only make about 45k/year while being one of two people (the other being my boss) running this company of 60 employees servicing 300 students.

State and federal govts need to step in to provide funding for child care. I shouldn't have to be worrying about my own financial stability with how many responsibilities I have at work and our families shouldn't have to cry to me on the phone about them not being able to afford proper care (please know I don't brush these parents off, we are kind people that give heavy discounts to families in need). It's a disgusting situation all around. After working in this industry for over a decade it makes me not want to have any kids of my own, ever.

P.S. Fuck the Boys and Girls Club executives. We share school campuses with their programs and we are often intervening in fights between kids on their program cause they notoriously understaff their sites and only ever seem to have 17 or 18 year olds working for them who have no idea what they're doing.

Lol my set up is a 22" 1080p on the left for basic web viewing, 28" 1440p center for games, and a 32" 1080p on the right for videos/twitch while I'm playing games

Remember, I did public transport on the daily for several years. Never again.

You have the entirely wrong takeaway from this lol. Knowing how bad public transportation is should make you want to strive for changes, not add to the problem by clogging up the roads.

Every single person I've met who says that only ever votes conservative lol.

Wait holy shit. I was in a thread talking about the 15 and it was mentioned that Apple seems to be heading this way with the hardware they've been adding. This would explain why they didn't fight this bill

Lmao. You can't tell me what they are because they don't exist.

I'll list everything I read to you if you can go back and specify for me all of the negative effects from the vaccine lmao.

it was primarily leftist sheep who were the ones begging for government to shut down conservative voices or any voices that disagreed even the slightest with the narrative being pushed by left wing medias during the height of the pandemic.

Thats because conservatives were and still are actively spreading lies!! Fucking of course we want that shit to stop.

I don't think anybody believes that Dr. Malone invented the mRNA vaccine by himself in his basement with a toy chem kit from amazon

Lmao He sure as fuck believes it (his Twitter profile even stated that he invented it when he was 28 lmao), and I think you did too until I called you out. Why else would you have called him the "literal inventor" of mRNA technology? All he did was help prove that it was possible, by the way. There's been so much more R&D since then that it's basically different technology now. What you're saying is like if the inventor of the wheel claimed that they invented cars. Go look up what his past coworkers have to say about him! One of them stated his brilliance, but also added that he's extremely stubborn and refuses to budge on things he perceives as correct even when shown differently. He's a just a narcissist.

I just don't see the necessity of it considering the overwhelming majority of drivers are already male. This feature is trying to even out the odds of women getting picked up by other women which just isn't very likely right now.

To seriously answer your question though, this is a marketing tactic to get more business from women who they can see use the app less than men. They're a business at the end of the day and it's a way they're predicting, whether correct or not, to increase sales.

How many times have you been assaulted or abused by a woman? Because almost every single woman I know can count the multiple times they've been abused or sexually assaulted by a man. Just because everyone is capable doesn't mean everyone is equally likely to commit these crimes.

You're missing the point. Obviously anyone is capable of commiting these crimes, but men overwhelmingly commit them to women than any other circumstance, and they're almost always much more violent than the inverse. Shit, my friend showed me a TikTok the other day about a woman who rejected a man, then slapped him when he wouldn't take no for an answer. You know what he did in response? He hit her in the head with a fucking brick.

Instead of instantly going to "this is sexist", maybe stop and think why it's even being considered in the first place.

That's not at all the same thing lmao

It's a shitty situation because at the same time public transportation is absolutely fucking hot garbage outside of a few large cities. Some sort of regulation needs to happen though

The bag is for her leftovers :)

So 7 bullet holes in his neighborhood. Wonderful.

Lmao. I have done tons of reading on the vaccine you ignorant slut. What I've concluded: this is by far the safest vaccine in human history, this is the most well documented vaccine in human history, and it's the single most widely researched and developed vaccine in human history. Do you know what typically takes vaccines years to get through testing? Finding and test subjects, both of which the COVID vaccine had in abundance. It's been 3 years - where are the supposed negative side effects from the vaccine? In all of human history, every vaccine every manufactured has had every single possible side effects emerge within 6 fucking weeks. Go look this shit up and stop projecting lmao

I think it's a great example because they're the single biggest source of conservative misinformation lmao. If the press was being silenced by some left-wing conspiracy don't you think Fox would have been a major target for them??

Ignoring the fact that Rogan is an ignorant dumbass who does absolutely no fact checking, did Malone back any of his claims up or were they all just from his mouth? Because Malone was not the "literal inventor" of mRNA vaccines. It was a huge collaborative effort that he played a part in along with hundreds of other researchers over decades. But you already know this cause you do your own research instead of just taking people's word for it right?
