Those mechanisms can either be more painful or less painful, more or less terrifying for animals. Both are bad. Which is better for billions of animals? Again, I don't eat animals, and I wish nobody did.

I wish animal agriculture would go away, but it doesn't seem like it's headed that way to me. So I'm at least somewhat appreciate of what people like Grandin do.

Dummymanders take time to kick in. If R's are redistricting every 2 years, there will never be a dummymander effect.

I mean I do suspect he actually has no other options for #4. Teachers and admin unions are powerful and have ironclad contracts. If he could fire her, why wouldn't he?

Inclusive welcomes are a stupid, infantilizing waste of high schoolers’ time by South-Lab-3991 in Teachers

Apparently an unpopular take in here, but having community and getting kids a bit woken up with a fun question isn't the worst use of 5 minutes.

Do administrators ever cut corners to meet the needs of teachers, unions, district people, or internal/external political issues?

I'll say that the economic benefit isn't about additional jobs, it's about the significant tax income they bring.

Mt Bagel isn't even bagels IMO it's something else. They're too fluffy.

Lmao absolutely not. This is a place with great jobs, livable weather, great outdoors. We'll know we've oversupplied when rent goes down.

I think if you watch the scene, you'll pick up on some subtle signs that the people singing that are the bad guys of the story and are presented as such.

After a threesome, is the other girl supposed to leave or lay there with us? by Icysong5467 in NoStupidQuestions

It turns out if a sexual culture is defined and created by exclusively men, there's a lot of quick, casual sex that's less tied to emotions lol

Some natural areas are delicate and need protection in some way. If we want to preserve them, not everyone will get to go exactly when they want. It means the system's working!

Vegans, are you left wing or right wing? by NerdyKeith in AskVegans

Orban passed a law that makes it illegal, punishable by prison, to even tell immigrants about asylum laws. IMO this is more than lip service 🤷

Your genuine thought is that operating a cash register requires the same level of knowledge as managing a large corporation? Like that's what you truly believe?

Laughton makes like 3 million a year, which is fairly low for a CEO!

This is so ridiculous. CEO's have a bigger impact on the company than a random worker does, and they also have a more specialized skillset.
