Holy shit I hadn't clicked yet and hoped you were joking. I'm sure they mean well but I find that really disturbing, what a weird use of emoji...
He makes $210,000 per year..?? I'm not saying important and dangerous jobs like this shouldn't be well compensated, I'm just very surprised that it IS this well compensated
If you have the option, I would suggest going to a Dr before assuming anything is the only plausible explanation.
Personally, I found out about my neck / posture issues (even though outwardly I have decent looking posture so I never assumed it would be that), got some excercises from a physio and a completely different pillow, and that combo drastically reduced my headaches
It gets worse the more I read the article... This guy spent a few weeks in blackface, thinks that he 'became a black man'. Then goes on to conclude that while it might be harder to thumb a ride as a person of colour, systemic racism is completely over?? We did it folks!
This fucking guy is only claiming that he's an IDF soldier in an attempt to intimidate a woman who is calling him out for being aggressive towards another young woman too. Pathetic
Thank you for this link. The first article I read on this only gave Perry's side of the story, so my first impressions were that he was an uber driver who turned a corner not expecting to see a protest, the protestors were worried about the car, and that one of them aimed a rifle at him.
Nothing about his messages about wanting to kill some protestors, nothing about the witnesses all saying that the victim did NOT raise his weapon, nothing about the rifle being recovered with no round chambered and safety still on.
Disgusting act, disgusting reporting, disgusting pardon. Thank you for your comment and link, truly.
Holy shit guys, take a breath and figure out what you're arguing about.
ME5SENGER_24's comment was technically unclear (yes I think it reads the way they intended it to, but I can see how it could be read the other way), and (des)mosthenes thought that "Most useless bunch of assholes on planet earth'" referred to the protestors, therefore thought the comment seems like it is wishing that the cops had killed 50% of them.
ME5SENGER_24 didn't realise that their comment could be misconstrued, so lashes out at (des)mosthenes and calls them "fucking stupid"
Now they're both all worked up, mad at each other, and not realising they are on the same fucking side. Just.... Take a moment, relax, try to see why someone might be confused, and talk it through. For fucks sake...
Not quite what you're asking, but I once fell asleep on a long haul flight listening to a Cinematic Orchestra album with some very comfy headphones.
I woke up to a little filler / ambient track that is mostly silence with a ship's fog horn blown a few times... The cabin was dark, most people were asleep or quietly watching movies, and my half asleep brain forgot I was wearing headphones. I went from confused to creeping panic about what this horn meant and why no on else was reacting to it until I finally woke up properly
If every sneeze was a brain damage dice roll, I bet we'd see this kind of post about sneezing indeed
While it's cool to show concern for someone who might need to hear some words of encouragement for getting help (well, minus the scare tactics of a dead relative story), you seem to have conflated this poster's description of the 'pattern' a night out drinking can take with a 'pattern' of problem drinking every day, or far too often at least.
What they described is perfectly familiar to me, someone who drank to a level of bad hangover on occasion when I was young and having dumb fun with friends. As I got older, that type of fun got less important and the amount I drink came down to a drink or two, rarely, when I can afford a nice whisky or something.
Basically, someone recognising how a night of social drinking can turn into a hangover isn't necessarily the cry for help you seem to have read it as
Firstly, being on the autism spectrum (not saying he is or isn't) doesn't give you the right to be an asshole, and I'm sure many people who are on it and aren't assholes will tell you that this take is insulting.
Secondly, when you say there is nothing major on there, you have to keep in mind his level of reach and influence. If your neighbour says "this new Covid thing is going to just blow over, there'll be no cases soon'", you can say "OK buddy, hope you're right but it's not looking likely". When Musk says it, he directly contributes massively to the misinformation that has killed a lot of people and changed the whole damn world for the worse
You seem very, very sure of there being "LITERALLY" no problem with the gendered pronoun being used for an unknown user.
Instead of hand-waving it away as the author being male and just prefering his own pronouns in his writing, we could maybe consider where it is being written and why it might feel particularly non-inclusive? ie: a field that has historically been very intentionally uninviting to women?
Also, it's not like this was someone petitioning for a boycott over one assumed pronoun, they just quietly fixed the grammar and submitted the change. Absolutely nothing idiotic about it.
