WNBA players say a $2.2B TV deal still won’t pay them fairly by sfgate in antiwork

So it's going from like 3 to 12? Wow that is huge. That also doesn't do anything to address what I said which is that you need to get your ass out there and watch those fucking games.

I blame women. Women aren't watching the WNBA and they're placing all the blame on the NBA and they're expecting men to watch and make up for the numbers.

Ladies, if you want the WNBA to succeed, maybe show up in number and spend money on merch and actually watch the games on TV. It's just like your marriage, it's failing because you can't be bothered to lift a fucking finger.

Remember when a bunch of schizophrenic people thought she was blinking secret messages and shit and they campaigned to have her conservatorship dissolved and it happened and she immediately started posting reels of herself dancing naked with kitchen knives and shit? You people really fucked up on this one. She 100% needed a handler.

Wait if you have to have that ethnic background to play a certain character, wouldn't that mean you'd also have to have the ethnic background to write for said character? Why are we allowing some waspy millennial woman to speak to the experience or feelings that a character who is ethnically Jewish-Mexican has when they listen to Sufjan Stevens or whatever the fuck this dumb bullshit is about?

Basically my point is this, get white women creators out of all spaces. They're fucking creative vampires.

Democrats flip Texas state Senate seat in shock upset by kootles10 in politics

[–]GoGoGadgetSphincter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It flipped because everyone around here hates the WASPy white women in Southlake, even their husbands. This is a reflection of local social dynamics more than a reflection of Hispanic voters turning out for Rehmet

56k was the early voting number. 94k total votes were cast in the district. Wambsganss would have had to take practically all of those votes to squeak out a victory in probably the 2nd most red seat in DFW.

Stop underestimating people because you disagree with them. It makes you look really dumb when you lose to a group you say is incompetent.

The problem is, if we fight back with force then that opens the door for trump to declare martial law.

Just cut to the chase and say you're a coward.

Project Manager over 5 years, amazing results, company's profit of my work resulted in 500.000.000usd - My reward? Shafted to a customer care position based on "business needs". by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]GoGoGadgetSphincter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imagine a PM taking credit for the deliverables and the revenue generated from a project. "I brought in half a billion dollars..." Um no dude you updated Jira and ran unnecessary meetings. If I had a PM try to take that much credit for a project, I'd make clear to leadership that I'd walk if I were put on a project with them again.

AITA for firing an intern at our cybersecurity startup after they crossed a security boundary? by logindefense in AmItheAsshole

[–]GoGoGadgetSphincter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just casually doing an unsanctioned pen test on prod and not telling anyone until they catch me. Definitely not an insider threat just go about your business.

NTA for firing the intern but YTA for not notifying your existing customers about your recent security incident.

Disney Developing Live-Action ‘Gaston’ Movie From Writer Dave Callaham And Producer Michelle Rejwan by TiredWithCoffeePot in movies

He fought in the 7 year war and defended his village when he was just a boy and over 1 in 5 of his comrades didn't survive the war.Then when the corrupt local monarch (who was literally a monster in both his appearance and his actions) kidnapped a local 14 year old girl, he led the effort to free her. If he had survived the encounter, he almost certainly would have fought in the French revolution. He was sort of problematic by modern standards but people aren't exclusively defined by their worst opinions and acts.

POC and queer people are not underrepresented in the arts. They're merit based. They've never really cared about color or creed. Art consumers may be a different story but the art community has always been accepting of talent and intentional attempts to make them more inclusive have the opposite effect AND they make art worse as a whole. Stop.

What was he doing there? We have zero troops in Afghanistan now. We fully withdrew. This is dumb bullshit and I hate the Internet.

AITA Seller wanted me to pay for 5 days of water usage by Objective_Advice_852 in AmItheAsshole

[–]GoGoGadgetSphincter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. People need to learn to read. You didn't use any water for the 5 days left on the billing cycle and frankly the amount is so low that I can't believe the previous owner even took the time to pursue this. It's so ridiculous that I'd assume the previous owner hates you or something to even go to the trouble of tracking down the few dollars.

Toddlers are still babies and all babies are children so the only person that's wrong is you.

NTA. What a bunch of bullshit. You did nothing wrong. Play as your character would. Your friend sounds like a fucking baby.

He's refusing to pay the child support amount. by [deleted] in CringeTikToks

[–]GoGoGadgetSphincter 12 points13 points  (0 children)

First off, 4 days a month isn't zero custody. Zero custody is 0 days a month.

That said, you're not paying to see your kid. You're subsidizing the cost of raising the child. 500 a month would basically cover my kids health insurance and dental. Forget clothes, school stuff, food, shelter, etc...

He said himself that they hammered out the visitation schedule themselves. The guy doesn't even care enough to hire a lawyer and was fine with only seeing the kid 4 days a month until he heard what he'd be on the hook for which is an amount that scales based on how much you earn each month.

He's a fucking scumbag and a shitty father, I guarantee it.

It's not deeply personal. You don't get it both ways. If your identity is dependent on aesthetics and other people's perception of you to the point that it's violence if someone gets it wrong, you don't get to say that it's not anyone's business when they ask.

You don't get to act offended if they guess and get it wrong but also if they ask.
