8 years old, thank God I had the sense to keep it a secret even as a child though! All my friends who knew that early and told somebody ended up in conversion therapy

Think of other topics and questions than work, Americans care too much about work outside of work.

I once worked in a division of ~3500 employees, every year the division produced two profit forecasts one called "pessimistic" and another called "optimistic". My first year the division made $335 million MORE than the optimistic forecast so the division CEO approved every employee a $335 bonus.

The next year it happened again but only $285 million, so $285 bonuses that year.

Both times I scoffed and quietly pointed out to the delighted Boomers I trusted that it was less than one third of a percent of the total money.

The next year apparently the corporate office found out, fired said CEO and quashed the bonuses forever. Apparently the distribution of the crumbs was more than they could handle.

I use a scoop of rye flour (30g) mixed with all purpose flour (70g) in my starter. The rye flour is like miracle gro for the bacteria. In my country it's also cheaper than all purpose flour.

When I last visited Argentina Uber was using the official exchange rates which were just fantasy numbers. As soon as you match with a driver they'd message you and you'd negotiate the cash price. Then the ride in the app would be cancelled.

Uber didn't mind because they were still getting the ~$1 or so cancel fee for basically being a messaging app.

In my junior high they had a mysterious urinal pooper. They spent months trying to catch the culprit. They even resorted to a $25 reward and a little campaign in the morning announcements. Then it turned out to be a handicap student who couldn't bend his knees. The posters and campaign quietly disappeared without a word.

I have a friend who can smell cockroaches no joke. We always take her restaurant suggestions very seriously.

This article is old and only about one incident which was recently settled in arbitration for an undisclosed sum of money and dismal of the case with prejudice. Buzzfeed started doing a deeper dive into Shangela but went bankrupt before it was finished, then Rolling Stone picked it up.

Basically Shangela mixes lots of alcohol and sex with strangers. Something that use to be normal but today is no longer ethical.

Shangela looks fantastic and I think people forget she's an older queen who probably has some older ideas about consent and alcohol.

Do you ban them from museums? Textbooks? Documentaries? No because they are in an appropriate context. I would never wear or display a swastika and I feel disgusted to see one displayed by anyone with pride. Context and motive matter...

I don't believe in these sweeping absolutes. Context and motive are important parts of any equation of what's "acceptable".
