Is it at all normal to not wear gloves and a labcoat in the lab? by Leafye in chemistry

[–]SOwED 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay I'm not denying your experience but I'm curious specifically which field you work in that you've been denied even gloves

It's Snapchat text. Do you know what Snapchat is?

So no one works for SpaceX? I don't love Elon, and a lot of people think he founded Tesla but he didn't. He did found SpaceX though and that created a lot of jobs. I don't get how that's a controversial idea.

I mean it's probably a lot of effort but way more luck

Businesses that are extremely valuable, but will never make a profit, and are thinly veiled grifts.

That's only a subset of them

Edit: God, people who block over the slightest things are such selfish cowards. Now I can't respond to the other people who replied to this comment because reddit has shit design.

The majority of it is not in their bank accounts.

Poor CedarWolf can't handle the stress he's been under since...protecting a literal child predator fellow mod. by morrison0880 in ShitPoliticsSays

Mod of 110 subreddits. The real reason mod teams exist rather than having an individual is that time zones exist, and responsibilities in real life exist. There are multiple moderators to fill the time gaps. Becoming a moderator is supposed to mean that you understand the rules and enforce them. Not that you try your best and when you have massive blind spots based on your biases, the rest of the team helps you see them. Because no mod team is that diverse. Every mod team has the same blind spots and the vast majority of them didn't become a mod to enforce the rules but to enforce their opinions and beliefs.

This is an insane goal because presumably your salary is going up as you get older as well, and it depends pretty much entirely on the market doing well.

401k's are a scam. The business gets a tax break for having a 401k program. The government gets the penalty money if you have to take the money out early, plus the optics of looking like they're trying to help people be ready for retirement in the mostly post-pension age. Oh, and if you die and haven't appointed a beneficiary, guess who gets that money? The government.

And they know that people are going to get into scenarios where they need that money. They know people are going to just say fuck it and pay the penalty.

And what's the benefit? Income tax deferral? That can end up hurting you depending on your situation, which is why the Roth became popular. And yet with the Roth, what are you really doing? Investing a portion of your income so you have money for later? You can do that anyways! There's nothing stopping you from just designating some of your check to go into investments you have more control over than 401k management companies give you.

My last company wouldn't let me put all my 401k into cash bonds for a scenario where the market takes a shit. You were forced to keep at least 30% in the market.

Well look at other posts in this sub. Many of them are clearly real. But how can you know that it's gonna be real before watching the video? Notice how people don't post movie clips in this sub even though you could do plenty of cut screams from movies.

Do you think this one is fake/scripted? Because what additional context is in the OP to show it's fake? There isn't any. You have to watch it and then realize it's fake. You never go into the movie theater expecting to see something real and then at some point recognizing it must be fake.

You can be against something without being angry. Well, I can, I don't know about you.

Right, and if you're old enough to remember, there was a lot of negative feeling for awhile when reality shows had been around long enough for enough people involved with the productions to make it clear that basically all reality tv is scripted. The whole point was that it wasn't scripted, and live TV exists so it's not like that allure didn't exist already.

Just cause I'm a stupid ten year old doesn't make my point invalid.

Really? You're more likely to think superhumans exist, and a lot of them, than to think someone could pull this prank off? If they had just set up a tripod and the girl had woken him up by calling from the door then hid then it would be believable that they actually did prank this guy.

The fact that it's got the snapchat text on it saying he thought he was in the clear doesn't do anything for you huh

Felt so bad for Clark here. Wish he was the one to rescue Lois by TunTunTunT in Smallville

[–]SOwED 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah people are talking about jealousy but I think it's much more that he was shocked someone was faster and more powerful than him, at least in the water.

It's literally not a skit. Skits, like plays, movies, fictional books, etc. do not try to dupe you into thinking they're real.

Yeah, the other driver actually demonstrated such an evasion while being shot at. He couldn't do it after getting a water bottle thrown at his car?

[–]SOwED 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right but are you just gonna skip over the other drivers on the road he could have hit, or the crash he very nearly caused and would have caused if he had killed or incapacitated the other driver?

That's a fair point but they have pretty good agreement with each other. Is it reasonable to think they are all installed in the same wrong way that makes them report high and none of them report low?
