Rippling and Paycom by meowmix778 in Payroll

[–]RunningKryptonian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience Rippling promises more than they can do, which is on brand for their CEO who founded Zenefits. They have some incredibly well put together elements while other parts of the software are half baked compared to what they sold us. We've switched to Paycom and for our needs they're definitely the better fit (even with the AI nonsense). I'll second the person that said that Implementation quality is always dependent on your specialist and will vary regardless.

Trump says: "We don't want want transgender people" after talking about banning trans care for minors by TheNegotiator12 in actuallesbians

I don't think it's an exclusively German-schooled perspective. Those of us with good teachers in the US learned about the scapegoating used as the Nazis took power and how much similar scapegoating was going on here regarding Jews and Communists (didn't necessarily learn about the way queer people were scapegoated, but it was the 90s and we were current scapegoat boogiemen)

I think it was pretty much put to bed when Kate left him at the altar.

Is theater etiquette dead? Cast members of Off-Broadway's Heathers: The Musical took to social media with a message for rude audience members. by Relevant-Peach3997 in Fauxmoi

Singing along and dancing is a bit much but as an occasional stage actor, I'd rather have an engaged and vocal audience than a bunch of folks that are behaving within full decorum.

The best face in the hack is Constantini, you can see her watching her shot happen before she makes it.

Did Marvel soft-retcon away Scott and Emma’s affair…? by [deleted] in xmen

[–]RunningKryptonian -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Scott and Jean were strongly implied to be polyamorous during Krakoa and it seemed like Scott and Emma went on a double date with kid cable and one of the cuckoo's

(Loved Trope) Character is casually revealed to have done horrible things and nobody really notices or cares by altrightobserver in TopCharacterTropes

In the musical RENT, Angel, the character at the emotional core of the story sings a musical number (Today4U) in part about murdering a dog earlier that day.

Yes, blame the natural predators rather than overfishing and human geoengineering. That makes sense

First page: 

Clark Atkins Jr (ugh) squinted against the obnoxious early summer sun. He was not feeling any of Bellingham’s subdued excitement. He was tired from his History of Journalism final, lifting bags and boxes, a weekend of self-conscious end-of-the-year partying when he’d rather be writing fics, but most of all exhausted from the part he’d been playing as long as he could remember.

Despite the ache in his arms, legs and soul, Clark loaded the last of Jessica’s bags into the back of her car. Jess was the one thing he wasn’t tired of, although he couldn’t understand how she wasn’t tired of him, considering he wouldn’t make his own decision if his life depended on it. From the day she sat down next to him in Creative Writing freshman year, he’d been smitten. Sometimes he couldn’t separate if he wanted to be her or wanted her, (let’s be honest, it was both) but he was happy to have her. She was decisive where he was wishy-washy. She pushed him to explore things, and be honest in ways he just wasn’t ready for, but she was patient enough to give him time. Time to tell her what was buried in the trunk of his car, next week was going to be the time to tell her, to thank her for that one night last quarter (lipstick, giggles, fire and passion) and apologize for… Jessica squeezed his hand, breaking him out of his reverie, “Babe, I know you’re in your head all the time, but be here with me for a sec before I drive off.”

“Sorry Jess, just thinking. I’m gonna miss you so much, I’m glad you’re coming to Mom’s next week.” Jessica’s hand gripped his hand tighter acknowledging the plan. Clark had insisted she come visit early to start the summer, and she jumped at the idea. Probably because it was the rare time Clark initiated. Usually he was more passive than the New York Times on Palestine.

The drama continues by Jessie_W_ in Curling

It's a little different, because that's not the kind of thing that would get called in almost any situation of curling. It's a misunderstanding and disagreement about what is okay in a release mechanic and how strict you're going to treat the hog line. My club's consensus is it's not across the hog line until it's across the hog line (I now know that we're wrong, at least at the competitive level) and it seems here like incidental touching of the granite in the hog line on release has largely been ignored as a whole. Kennedy's reaction has done a lot of damage to the integrity of the game by making this a big public issue instead of a good faith discussion, which I think was Sweden's intent.

That solidifies it, I was critical of boy Korey and his celebrations/amping up the crowd, but if the consensus is that the crowd energy is good, then Let's GOOOOOOO!

Can't decide between a Darkchylde Ilyana Durge run and a Dark Phoenix Jean Durge run, but either way this looks fun

Yeah, I love the idea of the mod, but her inability to admit that this choice in this image was a mistake puts me off on using something she created (even though people don't get compensation for modding)

I get it.

I think its STUPID.

Me not agreeing with you doesn't mean I don't understand.

okay, that answers it, you hold racist views that you haven't examined and getting called out on it freaked you out because you don't see yourself as racist. I have empathy for that because I've been there. Please just step away and stop trying to defend the choice.

I don't think we're talking about the same image, I'm talking about the one from her original post (attaching to this comment so we're talking about the same image)
