  1. Why does he need to raise money for a defense, isn't he defending himself?
  2. He could've avoided all of that if he would've just shown up when asked. Go cry somewhere else you moron.
  3. And this right here is why I'm trying to talk the hubby into leaving Texas for now and the US later. I do not want to be associated with these jackholes.
  4. How is this not the government abridging the freedom of speech? I mean corporations are people, right? IANAL so help me out.
  5. A person who is only attracted to the people of the same sex is a homosexual, which we tend to call gay or lesbian in the US. So he can identify himself however he wants, but he's still only attracted to men and he himself is a man. That means he's a homosexual, AKA gay. Further, this has nothing to do with his political stripe. Hell, I'm not sure he even has a political stripe. These videos make him look like a kid who is desperately hoping his family will accept him, and he's throwing in every talking point he's ever heard at the dinner table to make sure they hear that he's on the same page as they are. He's afraid his parents don't love him and that's sad.
  6. Do not ever again talk about how important your religion is to you as you use it to justify throwing my people in jail, fining and jailing women who want to control their own bodies, and the mass slaughter of the innocent. With that statement you have told me that you don't even follow the tenets of your religion. FUCK YOU.
  7. Yeah, he doesn't want to be in the community, I'm fine with that. I wish he didn't feel like he had to overcompensate to keep a relationship with his family though. That's sad.
  8. I will never understand why we should ever listen to someone moralize about anything when they are walking examples of gluttony. Fuck you. You don't even follow your own stated moral code, what gives you the authority to make any of us try to live by it? You want to be fat, go for it, I don't care. I won't even call you out on it, until you start using the bible as a hammer. If I were to debate this guy, I'd just keep quoting bible verses about the dangers of gluttony any time he tried to bring up his moralizing bullshit. Get your own house in order you piece of shit.
  9. I'm not a big fan of chinese food in the US, but it was delectable in China. And the food in Singapore, Malaysia and India are 3 of the top 5 best cuisines in the world. WTF were you smoking while you were over there? So I can't volunteer to be a sugardaddy, but I'd be happy to help entertain you. Well, probably my husband will do most of the entertaining. He's more interesting. Assuming we still live here. And assuming you are ok with being crotchety and don't have virgin ears by the time we're old and on our way to senility.
  10. Wow, I never saw anyone get so precise about measuring their dick. Kudos!
  11. B2B Software. Just got back from 11 days off and my work was mostly covered for me while I was out. It exists and it is real, but you have to make sure the company is doing it because they want happier and therefore more loyal employees, and not because it looks better on a balance sheet.
  12. Yep we read about that for sure and since we're at the 10 day mark from symptom onset and both fully recovered, we figured we're safe to travel, especially since we have doctor's note as proof of recovery to get us back in the country. Even if we didn't have the note, and popped positive while over there, there are worse things than being stuck in a country with delicious food for a few extra days while trip insurance pays for you to quarantine.
  13. Testing positive happened to me 2 weeks before I was supposed to leave the country. I had 1 day of a mild cold symptom wise, but I didn't finally start testing negative until yesterday. My trip is intact, thank god, but we were going to have to start canceling things this morning to get our money back had the tests not finally flipped. I have been full of the angry for the last week thinking my trip was gone, so I'm very very happy with this outcome.
  14. We got married in Maine, specifically because we figured that Texas would drag it's feet (it did) and would look for the first opportunity to annul our marriage if the situation ever presented itself. Looks like we weren't wrong.
  15. Not sure where this fits, but Kentucky doesn't believe in the Don't Say Gay law. As you can see here, at least one school wants to make sure it's students talk to their friends about being gay. And how it's awful and they are wrong. Every time I start thinking that maybe Jesus wasn't such a bad guy, I think of all the people that call Jesus a friend and am reminded why I want nothing to do with Jesus or them.
  16. We have a project we're trying to get off the ground in San Antonio, but once we can prove we can do it remotely, I suspect we're not going to keep staying in Texas. I spent my first 50 years here, and I just can't think of very many reasons to stay. We'll miss a few friends, I'll sorely miss a couple restaurants, but otherwise, meh.
  17. Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe is an amazing book. Glad to see it represented on this list!
  18. Can you list for me the better uses that would have support of this Congress? I mean there’s no point talking about better uses that are a pipe dream, but we can talk about the one that would pass so let’s talk about them. What are they?
  19. I love it, and my team loves it, but I'm one of those supervisors that listened to my supervisors and said that what this means is we expect everyone to take at least 1 week off per quarter. We are going to be on your ass to take off more time if you don't get to at least 3 weeks off. We aren't doing anything except rubber stamping requests unless the request is coming from someone that has already taken 6 weeks off. We're still most likely going to approve it, but we're going to make sure that their teams aren't being affected negatively before we do. Our company also has the culture that you are telling us you are taking time off on a particular day, you aren't asking for it, though, and we had that even before we made the switch. I think for this system to work and be appreciated, company culture has to see vacation as a good thing for their employees to take and not a hit to productivity.
  20. My company has unlimited time off so...
  21. Wait, are people with non-serious cases not just continuing to work from home? Am I doing this wrong? Should I be using this as an opportunity to fuck off for a few days?
  22. So how did he come down on the 2nd Amendment, where the types of weapons that are available today were not yet conceived of back in those days? WHy are they legal by default? And why is he ok with ignoring the words "well regulated" in that amendment but needs to parse every other word in the document? Could it be that he's proof texting, just bending the words to mean what he wants them to mean and ignoring the rest, kind of like most Christian Americans do the Bible? Nah, that couldn't be it.
