I’m conflicted. On one hand, I feel sorry for people whose living conditions are so poor that they need to look for work in a foreign country. I understand that they have been lied to and are victims of a massive propaganda campaign.

On the other hand, my brain is screaming Don’t join the military in a war-torn country, especially one that has used its own people as cannon fodder!

Classy.

I don’t blame them one bit

I non-sarcastically like this design. Instead of handing a multimillion dollar contract to an aerospace company, someone said “we already have automatic rifles, right? Just bolt ‘em to the goddam drone. Problem solved.”

That makes sense, but it’s also incredibly unappealing.

I’ve seen pictures of data centers with parking lots full of cars. Are they going to ferry people to and from work each shift?

They don’t care

“American companies need access to all those impressionable, developing minds.”

A Somali referee, who was set to become the first person from his country to officiate at a World Cup, has been denied access to the US and will not work at the tournament.

Fear not. He will officiate at a future World Cup regardless. I’m glad it won’t be at such a shitty World Cup, and he won’t have to endure questions about America and Trump every time his history-making accomplishment is brought up. At this point, I hope he refuses even if his “status” magically changes.

For those of us who go by Fahrenheit, 50 C is 122 F! Damn!

This impacts management more than workers (of course, it still impacts workers, but not nearly as much). Therefore, I don’t care.

I didn’t know that Poland had significant oil reserves

They’re not dumb. Their leaders haven’t prioritized education, so they just don’t know. Of course, it doesn’t help that outside countries/religions are constantly fucking with them.

I don’t like it by association, because most of the time I hear it used by intolerant people (like right wing assholes on the “news”). Sometimes, though, I hear it used without malice, presumably because people don’t know what else to say.

Pardon my ignorance, but what term would you suggest instead? Birth sex? Assigned sex? Something else?

Agree 100%

Police should behave responsibly. The protest shouldn’t have had to happen in the first place. We can all agree on that.

The world is so fucked up that I HAVE to look for the “at least” and “bright” things, otherwise I’ll go insane. Some of us joke about serious things. Some of us rely on other methods. Either way, facing the enormity of the horrors surrounding us without any kind of coping mechanism is just too much.

At least now, the issue will get more attention than it would have otherwise. On the bright side, she is now a contestant for most ironic death of the year.
