  • Depends on the ratio to total employed. A team of 3000 with 2000 with nothing to do, for sure! 20,000 with 2000 as backups/currently learning the ropes? A bit more reasonable.

  • That is a long time to know someone is murdering you.

  • Slowly with a life sentence. Takes a bit though, whatever number of years they have left.

  • Are you attracted to every single woman that exists?

    If not, then it is fine to not find certain groups of women not to your preferences without needing to define them as not women.

  • Smh my head

  • How have never heard that song? It is everywhere!

  • My point was that some entertainers make fine politicians.

  • I think Volodymyr Zelenskyy was more recent than Trump but I would need to check the dates.

    Stewart isn't a populist and neither is Volodymyr. Being popular isn't the same as populist.

  • Counterpoint: Volodymyr Zelenskyy has proven that there is a lot more overlap than it might seem if their entertainment included a lot of political elements.

    I used to think Stewart would make a decent novelty candidate, but now I'm thinking he might actually be pretty decent.

  • I had a science teacher explain it back in high school the 90s before youtube existed. He went with the egg being first since the egg is what we call the new animal until it hatches, the shell is just the external container.

  • While true, that doesn't really have anything to do with the filibuster.

  • "But the GOP might use it against us!" say Dems while the GOP actively uses it against the Dems making any kind of positive change.

    If they would ditch it then they can accomplish something so that people will vote for them and then they only need the Presidency, Senate, or House to be able to accomplish the same thing as the filibuster. Keeping the filibuster when the GOPs entire platform is obstruction is just giving them more options to obstruct.

  • His 'my way or the highway' is for making up for past shitty compromises to bring things up to where the workers should be. There are still compromises, just not always in favor of the companies.

  • I tried to get there once, but kept getting distracted by collecting new Pals!

  • TurboTax: "We will fund your campaign to keep the tax code difficult to understand."

  • These are the laziest Pokemon designs I have ever seen.

  • Maybe you should have gone more over the top and not doubled down for multiple comments after if you intended it to be sarcastic. Parroting the actual talking points of conservatives is guaranteed to trigger Poe's Law.

  • The only people that have actually been canceled by 'cancel culture' are sex offenders like Bill Cosby and Kevin Spacey. Before that people like Harvey Weinstein was canceling women for not giving him blowjobs.

    Yeah, anyone who tries to milk the myth of cancel culture for publicity is a piece of shit.

  • Chapelle has completely shit the bed over thr last decade by switching from someone who had clever takes on racial issues with some shitty takes on other subjects to leaning entirely into spewing hate while crying about nonexistent cancel culture.

    Yes, Chapelle wants to play oppression Olympics while excusing his hot takes because he had 'one trans friend'. I forced myself to watch most of his Closer special to see if it was as bad as people claimed and it was, so from here on out I will just assume the worst things said about him are probably true.
