Most people also have trouble empathizing with people who lash out and get hostile anytime they receive feedback that can be even slightly perceived as criticism.

If you're wondering who would ever do such a thing, I encourage you to visit the nearest restroom and look into the large piece of glass hanging above the sink.

You should really re-read what you're writing before writing it. The point has now gone over your head three times.

Do...do you not understand the basic function of an acronym? Which is mainly to serve as a means to shorten things so that they're easier to remember?

What other purpose would an acronym serve? Regardless of what it is?

A) LGBT is/was fine, and yes I live in an area

B) Yes, at a pride parade most recently of all things. Had to be defended by my two gay room mates.

C) Don't deflect. Homey (forget if it was you) was being an asshole; and the reality is that nobody can keep up with your brand if you're constantly changing the name. Things rebrand seldomly and deliberately for a reason.

I've been to gay weddings, two of my best friends are gay, members of my family are gay, my wife's best friend works in gender affirming care. All of the people I just mentioned acknowledge that this constantly expanding need-to-include-everybody in a name somehow has a negative impact on both perception and support. So if you can't accept that opinion, even if you disagree, it's short sighted of you. And challenging anyone that points it out as a bigot is closed minded.

The acronym used in this post is ELEVEN characters long. When you have an acronym that long, you've lost sight of the purpose and acronym serves.

Nice knee jerk response to valid criticism. It is objectively difficult to support a cause when a) you can't remember the current "correct" name, or b) you get non-inclusive shamed for not using the (current) right name, or c) you get called a bigot for pointing out either of these things by knee jerking shit heads like yourself.

They do it on Instagram too. I barely use Instagram as it is, but I have noticed that it's suddenly loaded with "recommended threads" or something dumb

It's fun, it's hard, it's different. If you like the genre you'll like it, if you don't you won't.

It's okay if rainbow tape is your fetish. Definitely nothing wrong with your asshole throbbing any time you see someone supporting gay rights. Don't be ashamed!

Found the closet bottom that's ashamed to tell people he like it up the ass.

Literally the only reason we have TV of any type. We dumped YTTV for Hulu, but once they say we can't share the package with my father in law well dump that too and I'll go back to streams.

Does it hurt waking up this stupid or are you numb to it now?

So I just had it forced onto my work machine and here's my take away so far:

It's slow. I don't care about the bells and whistles they added visually, it's slow. Really slow. My workload and usage has not changed one iota from 10 to 11. Every single aspect of my job is the same, i use 90% Microsoft Apps, plus chrome (no choice) and acrobat. WHY IS IT SLOW. My laptop was built for windows 11. Windows 10 ran fine and was not noticeably different in any way other than some visual changes I don't need. Why the fuck is it SLOW. Why. Seriously, why?

I do not care about tabbed explorer, it's fine but it's not a feature I've ever had in an OS or needed. I don't care about most of the other obvious changes, but I do care that my job is now significantly more difficult because my every day tasks take longer and the OS locks up due to high CPU and memory usage even though all apps combined are only using about 20% of my resources. So the OS eats 80% because....i don't know or car why, it fucking sucks and I hate it.

Correct. Benefits can and do get cut frequently without unions. Benefits cannot be cut in a union under contract, and if they try to cut them on the next contract you have the power to collectively bargain and strike if they do not come to the table and bargain in good faith. The recent WGA strike is an excellent example of all of that.

Same with

No guarantees on pay, benefits or work rules.

This is also technically true - except your union is going to collectively bargain a binding contract which gets you all those things, and prevents you from being exploited or the employer from randomly changing rules to exploit you.

Ironically, Viggiano and his team from the University of Tampa won a 2018 ethics competition

Best part of the article.

If it's getting repossessed at 50 percent value, that means it's getting repossessed in the first year, and probably shouldn't have been financed in the first place. BUT, let's say they did, gap insurance is a thing that exists, for cheap, to cover that exact situation. Regardless, that debt can be cleared via bankruptcy, and is peanuts compared to most student loan debt. Smaller plans, multiple outs and protections available from the get go.

On top of that, student loan debt already prevents people from buying cars due to high debt to income, and already low post-grad income tied up paying loans, which are often as high as a new car payment, not to mention insurance and registration. On top of that, it makes them higher risk, raises their interest rates, and makes financing even more challenging.

There is no sane argument between the two.

Right? This is the stupidest fucking article. Like you can even have the car repossessed and the loan terminated.

Auto loans may legit be one of the safest type of loans available to students.

Phones also aren't special anymore. Like the days where phones were flashy and people needed the best/newest phones are gone. Everyone knows everyone has a phone, nobody cares what phone it is. It reminds me of like 2004-2008 when laptops were a big deal and then everyone had one and it became a tool and people stopped caring what you had.

I mean you could see what was on it before you bought it, that's on you dog. All you did was prove people will pay that much for a shit sandwich.
