If I know someone is a terrible person, I can't enjoy their work. Besides not wanting to financially support them, I like to put myself in an author's, actor's, writer's shoes when I watch/read stuff.
That said, I don't purposefully look into people's lives; I'm not into celebrity gossip. But sometimes a person is such an outlier or just so vocal about it that it's unavoidable.
It seems a probable case is she misunderstood or misheard what was being said to her as "she needs to finish the drink" and complied with the request she thought was being given to her.
Heck, even as a hearing person, if someone told me I can't have an open beverage in a space (alcoholic or not), finishing it seems like a reasonable way to be rid of it.
Thanks for articulating it this way for me. It's the hypocrisy that gets me, at least in my situation. I reported my boss to the directors. He was (still is) planning to cut a guy from our team, claiming he costs too much. But when I did the math, I found that my boss' personal expenses on food, gas, phone, vehicle, etc. (with increasingly unaccounted-for amounts) are more than that guy's pay.
My boss isn't worried about the financial health of the organization, he's worried he won't be able to keep spending it on himself if he has to pay the workers.
Get rid of time change. Have a referemdum for Standard or Daylight, then stick to it.
Your thinking wasn't wrong, the problem was that the municipal and provincial police and governments abdicated their duties and abandoned their citizens. The federal government stepped in because the lower levels of government refused to do their duty for weeks. I don't disagree that Trudeau stepped a foot beyond his jurisdiction, but in that scenario, he was being the only responsible adult who actively cared about the well-being of Canadians.
I'm glad it was done, and there was nothing in the execution that was heavy-handed or otherwise untoward. The people had more than ample warning to disperse, the line moved slowly (giving the people every opportunity to leave of their own volition), force was restrained and minimal. People got arrested because at that point they made the choice to be. It certainly was not the situation we currently see unfolding in the US right now (which, if we are honest, the convoyers would have wanted for their side to perpetuate, if they could).
All assignments are submitted electronically now, and if he's in philosophy, he will also have to follow formatting requirements like font, font size, margins, and spacing. Practically, he's doing as much as he is allowed off-computer.
Well, that's silly, all Signal chats are secret; it's not like group chats are public.
"The group's chat description identifies itself as a 'clandestine' group and new members are warned to 'remember the first rule of Fight Club.'"
... Well, then.
Perhaps someone can help me understand the difference between an anthropromorphic animal mascot (which as a tale as old as time) and a furry? When does one cease to be one and becomes another?
There are animal mascots all the time in sports. Why is that not weird, but it's weird to have a sporty animal mascot for coins?
To summarize a long story, I (a millennial) put in a task request to a Gen Xer, including step by step instructions. I knew what to do, I just don't have access to do it.
Xer told me that was the wrong service, it's this other one, he can't find the settings in the Other Service. We went back and forth a few times, he repeated I was wrong, until finally he showed me a screen capture from Other Service that showed "managed by service 1" that proved I was right in the first place.
If he were willingly to accept I might know what I'm talking about and looked at the instructions, it would have been done in minutes instead of dragging it out over 11 days.
Obviously this is a hand picked anecdote, but yeah, bosses and non- boss elders definitely get in the way of productivity.
This is utterly ridiculous and such a thinly veiled racism. It's disgusting that a school principal and members of the school board collectively want to punish this kid so badly for being black they'd go to court to do it.
If there's a go fund me or other fundraiser for court costs for this kid and his family, I'd gladly throw money at it.
Refusing to use nail polish remover to clean off permanent marker because that's "for women". It's acetone, my dude, acetone.
Oh, I can recognize good code from code that works... I'm just not skilled enough to produce the former. (Does that put me ahead of most people by default?)
