ISO dates, 100%.

Time zones...I could see arguing to rework them, but abolish them? How would that even work?

Looking at you, Google Play Library.

No matter where you live, AirBnB/VRBO can only make housing prices go up, never down. At best it'll be neutral. It's always taking inventory that might otherwise go to a local.

That's an argument against an executive branch of government, not an argument against a constitutional monarchy.

You could have (and many countries do) a parliamentary system like you describe without having a monarch figurehead.

The question I think OP is asking is: why have the monarch figurehead.

Could she have done better? Maybe. But I still think her losing had way more to do with more of the country being sexist and racist at heart than we'd like to believe

Since these polls were started in 1945. He broke his own record set in 2017.

It's all processed on device. If you don't trust that that's the case, then I assume you believe that Google employees looking at photos is already happening.

This could be a helpful tool for those trying to above harassment (unwilling recipients of dick pics)

You know this is a feature, not a requirement, and that it is optional - and is off by default for adults, right?

There's a kid who calls her father dada (dadda?...sp?) throughout the movie

Things going on in the USA right now should be a reminder that just because there are gains, that doesn't mean they can't be reversed. Continued celebrations highlighting visibility are still needed, outside of just the fact that they're also just allowed to celebrate their community.

I agree they need to hear the message. Just a bit of a stretch from the normal "working class" definition. I have a feeling a huge portion if not possibly a majority of attendees there have/had trust funds. They're hardly paycheck to paycheck.

They're dropping $1000+ per person for a concert, all said and done (food at places like this is crazy, travel costs, etc).

That said, you are absolutely right we shouldn't divide ourselves up and I'm glad he was there. Just meant to observe the irony in the headline.

Love the message and I get that he's trying to shift the popular view and this isn't a bad place to do it

But Coachella isn't exactly filled with your average "working class" folks. Tickets start at $600 per person.

Titanic was a hit, but in retrospect, horribly overrated and IMHO absolutely cliche, disrespectful, sacrilegious garbage.

Ah, I've even seen that one! Good call

Agree he had a very high hit rate, and personal life aside, I enjoy most of his movies.

But MI:2 and MI:3 are mediocre at best, and Knight and Day and Rock of Ages were massive flops (I haven't seen either, but i they look horrible). Cocktail earned him a razzie nomination.

Saving Private Ryan is at least "very good" if not one of the greatest war movies of all time.

And The Burbs is classic 80s screwball comedy simmered to perfection (even if it isn't a 'high art ' genre)

Ah yes. "If you're rich, nothing is illegal, there's just a fee"

That's definitely a thing, but something different.

I don't think you get what I was saying. I'm not debating the definition of the word "fee."

I'm saying that in most states in the USA, there's often a fee for many things that can get gotten completely for free if you prove your income is low enough.

So I guess you could say you "pay a fee" of the extra time and hassle to prove your low income. But for something like a state ID, for instance, you can get one absolutely free (no money paid) if your income is low enough.

I believe OP's point was that the title says "Teacher accused of sex with students." It should read "Teacher accused of raping students"

One small point to correct/adjust is the idea that these sites were "ignored."

The pyramids have been a tourist attraction for thousands of years. The Romans talked about visiting them. I'm guessing there was never a time when they weren't of interest to people in the area. Same for something like the Colosseum, Parthenon, or Pantheon. They might not have always prioritized preservation, but they certainly didn't forget they existed.
