Three times I have left a job only for the business to close up shortly after.

In high school I worked at a video game store, I worked 40 hours a week. We went through a lot of managers during the year or so I worked there, but at the end we had this manager that was just stealing from everybody's register. He would give you like $5 to tell you to go buy a couple of burgers in the food court and then would just steal money out of the register using your employee number. We caught wise to it and would count down our registers and then at the end of the day we would call into corporate and tell them how much money we think he stole from our register. All of the cashiers were fired or quit when they saw others getting fired, The manager was promoted, and 2 months later the store was closed for almost 6 months before it got completely rebranded.

When I was in college I worked at a restaurant 7 days a week. I prepped food and washed dishes. When I told my boss I needed to go down to 6 days a week so that I could spend a day helping my mother he decided to close the restaurant down one day a week. When I tell my boss I needed to go down to 5 days from 6 days, he closed the restaurant another day each week. When I finally quit, the restaurant remained open for 4 more months before it was shut down completely.

After college I went to go work at a laboratory. I started as a janitor, talk to myself into maintenance responsibilities and eventually started and managed a CAD/CAM department. When I finally got fed up for getting paid in pocket lint and praise I gave them 30 days notice and was fired 14 days into it. The business closed its doors 90 days later.

Now I've just started a new job, I was at my old job for 5 years and was responsible for about 65% of the work on a day-to-day basis. My friend that I got a job there is looking for the exit and when he leaves I don't think they have any choice but to just turn off the lights and go home.

They don't call it the civil war in the South, they call it the war of Northern aggression.

... And that tells you all you really need to know about them and the quality of education these kids are receiving.

Planting trees who shade they will never sit in!

Union busting, lavish funding for genocide, corporate tax cuts, no healthcare plan, increased funding for police, pro-fracking, pro-drilling, 'tough on immigration ', etc etc

That's actually the Thomas Wayne that becomes Batman from The flashpoint timeline!

A rich guy dressing up in body armor and going around beating up poor people to fight systemic corruption is the most believable part of the whole Batman franchise. In his original incarnation he had a gun too.

This is exactly what I'm talking about.

Can you think of any media that has been edited or will be edited?

I love archiving stuff and whether it's the aired only once episode of Rocco's modern Life, several episodes of it's always Sunny in Philadelphia, the TNG episode "Ensign Ro", or anything else!

I'm wondering what is on your list of stuff you know to have been or will be censored?

I think people really misunderstand how differently people are affected by things. Putting drugs aside, people can have completely different reactions to regular food or mundane environmental conditions like dust and humidity.

I know a lot of people that enjoy cannabis and if you go one at a time and ask them what they enjoy about it, you get a huge variety of answers. Some of the things people say the get from it will be directly contradicting other things that other people say they get from it.

"It calms me down!" vs "it gets my creative juices flowing" "It settles my stomach" vs "it makes me nauseous" "It makes boring stuff exciting!" Vs "it makes me content doing nothing." And a thousand other reactions people have to it.

For some people pot gives them anxiety attacks, for other people pot eliminates their anxiety attacks. I think it's foolish to expect people to have the same or even similar experiences as each other when consuming substances.

I know plenty of people that don't like grapefruit, I love that shit. You do you!

When the price bottoms out it becomes a cheap mobile power wall!

They have already not done this with Putin or Netanyahu.

There is a less than zero chance they will do this with a sitting American president. No one's coming to save us from him we're going to have to do it ourselves.

That was a particularly fun read.

Apparently it's a circular horn triangle!

The first rule of acquisition: "Once you have their money, never give it back."

Just look at the extra sales tax in Indianapolis, Indiana compared to the rest of the state. The stadium the tax was created to pay for has long since been paid for, retired, bulldozed and replaced.
