  • No one has to work overtime unless everyone ahead of them refuses and there's no one else behind them, right? And the order of the line is whoever's worked the most OT. I mean that seems fair though?

  • When the votes cast were actually counted in Florida, Gore had more. FL was called for Bush before then, and the SCOTUS ruled 5-4 that what they initially called should stand.

  • There are different skin colors, hair textures, nose shapes, etc. That human variation is all real. What isn't real is race. That is to say, these phenotypes don't combine into meaningful or stable categories that reflect some reality outside culture.

  • In the Year of Our Lord two-thousand and twenty-three I cannot believe that enjoying IPAs would be considered a sign of adventurous tastes.

    Twenty years ago it was, but these days an oyster stout or cactus pear gose or brandy-barrel porter would probably be a better example of flavor adventure.

  • UFCW needs more grassroots activist members who will fight for the contracts they have and to rally blocs against the bullshit two-tier, no raise crap they push after every negotiation.

  • If they weren't so overplayed it wouldn't be so bad, but every microbrew has like 3 IPAs, 2 dry-hopped pilsners, and a seasonal novelty that if you're lucky is something noticably different like a wheat beer or a porter.

  • Taxes can be a tool for taking unjustly gained capital and redistributing it to the people as a whole.

    That does require workers exerting power through and over the state, but taxes are simply an exercise of power towards redistribution of resources.

  • The other thing that makes it tough is that we don't really have a good grasp of what it is. At least, last i checked.

    Like, are we just pathologizing people on this or the other side of a fuzzy threshold of executive function? Or is there a population that really is physiologically/genetically different? Either way, is there something wrong with society where people within a previously normal range of executive function are now unable to keep up?

  • Least unreasonable childhood belief. There are horses. There are animals with horns. Why not a horse with a horn?

    I think I actually recall a radio show where a guy thought unicorns were real up until his mid 20s. Not that he thought they were magic or anything, just that there was a horse-like animal with one horn that actually existed and was probably endangered or something.
