This is the weirdest paid product placement I've ever seen. We really need to get money out of politics... /s
To make it the same as Pascal's Wager. Many religions have a "reward" in the afterlife that strictly includes believing in the deity. It doesn't matter if you follow every other rule and are an amazingly good person, sorry, but if you were an atheist or believed in another deity then you will be punished eternally just because of that. I guess all-powerful, all-knowing beings have incredibly fragile egos and AI wouldn't be different. 🤷
There are still a lot of workers needed in agriculture, but increasingly they are either undocumented migrants or on restrictive visas (like temporary foreign workers in Canada) that limit their bargaining power and let their employers exploit them with poor working conditions and rock bottom wages. This means that these workers often don't have the means or income to participate much in the local economy beyond the bare essentials. This is actually a case of "trickle down economics" where paying workers fair, living wages would lead to healthier local economies where these workers could spend those wages and support having or starting a family.
Unfortunately advertising doesn't work on the majority of their users who are bots. 🤷
I'm so glad the blue check marks are working as intended to combat bots and boost real voices. /s
Republicans: Keep political statements out of my sports/TV/video games/etc!
Also Republicans: You can now make drinking water a political statement!
Could have kept the empty/occupied sign with a subtle indicator for staff that comes on after an unusually long time. Same functionality without showing everyone the time down to the second.
If Texas left the US, wouldn't that be a massive blow to the federal Republican party losing all those electoral college votes and seats in the legislature?
Who do we associate with the power being resisted against in reality? Governments? Politicians? Police? Corporations? The ultra wealthy? Religious institutions? One person's "bad guy" is another person's "good guy".
When a company takes on shareholders, whatever goals, mission, or ethos they had is erased. They now exist as a vehicle to make as much money as possible at literally any cost. That's it. Was nice while it lasted.
As much as I wish he would land in jail, I doubt that will be the actual outcome. I bet the republican talking heads know it too, but they can't resist cashing in on the fear of it to fire up their bases.
I also meant my initial reply to be more sarcastic and rhetorical, but I forgot that doesn't come across online so well. Hope you feel better soon though.
I appreciate that you used the word homosexual, but the person you replied to didn't so I was confused as to why you thought that's what they meant. 🤷
Sorry, I guess the confusion is partially between you and the person you were replying to. The chart says LGBT, but "gay" is often used synonymously with LGBT when referring to the community (i.e. gay pride month instead of LGBTQIA+ pride month).

We won't need guillotines if we can just make it trendy for billionaires to do dumb shit like this. 👍
I switched my desktop to KDE Neon and I've been enjoying it. Does it have some minor issues and rough edges? Yup. But I think Windows also has some things it handles poorly that people have just learned to cope with so well they forget about them and paint it as the "perfect" OS that always "just works" and expect Linux to live up to that unrealistic standard.
When I built my Windows 10 PC I had to manually install a ton of drivers, including the network card which is the biggest pain, then go into the registry to disable a bunch of "features". Some user friendly OS. 🤷
Mia has seen my wings many times on magic mushrooms as well as seeing my eyes glow blue
Well that explains everything.
To be fair, I totally expect far right sociopathic billionaires to do this kind of evil move. Taylor Swift is not typically lumped in with them even though she should be.
