  • First off, sorry you're in an impossible situation. Some POS at the company is adhering to old views to treat groups like shit for no reason other then their ego. That's shit.

    I would take this as a sign it's time to start finding other customers. Like you said, you need this job, any comment isn't going to change the content, and they are doing it because being terrible to marginalized groups is the current shitty "answer" to income inequality.

    I'd do the job, and then act upon your morals to search for either other places to work or other jobs. That way you can eventually tell them to pound sand.

  • Just to add to your point: I love the idea, however I lived with a group of Exalted players that took it way too far, so my group is still gunshy on doing too much combat description. So some people have seen the extremes of RP in combat, so they pull back.

  • Replied this below, apologies for recycling:

    In another life I reviewed quite a few Crown Royal whiskies before the other website went to hell. Northern Harvest was better then the standard. The single barrel selections they send to Texas took the cake. You ever get the chance, buy a bottle.. And the 75th Monarch Anniversary, but that is long gone now.

    I actually enjoyed Corby/Wiser products more, with Lot 40 being my old go to.

  • Baking by vibe takes some work, and you should practice recipes by the letter before trying it, but it can be fun. It's more so knowing the impact of what you're adding.

    Spices, for instance, can be added by vibe to some recipes. Flour, on the other hand, should be weighed out and a firm knowledge of ratio to fat rather then vibes.

  • Quick version: Being a centre (centre right) party, the liberals make nods to leftist ideas but don't actually change the laws because it's very expensive if you don't tax the rich. So everything stays status quo while they say it's going great.

    On top of that, far right people hate Trudeau a lot.

  • Exactly, right? They want dead flakes, not live one's, so they keep us as cattle on carpets, not consume us wholesale. That's like being afraid of vultures if you're healthy.

  • I have no hope he will actually do it, because his Sudafed sundowner brain will forget it in 2 minutes, but as a Canadian waiting for own province to kill DST when New York drops it, I'm hoping this happens.

  • Do they have hobbies/beliefs/sycophantic mannerisms similar to the bosses in charge? Because that'll get you promoted. A lot of management are lonely people who don't view others as equals unless they suck up or never argue, thus useless people get promoted so they can hang with "friends" in meetings all day.

    Or good old nepotism.

  • Credentials sure, but Cass has also been found to follow anti Trans groups, threw out any positive study that wasn't blind (which would have been unethical to run) and the report itself was influenced by a similar report originally done in Florida under Ron DeSantis. This is a biased report that started with a conclusion and ignored any evidence that disagreed.

  • I always feel that good pineapple, well caramelized, can be good on pizza. The problem is the majority of pizza places don't properly caramelize it, thus why most people never have a chance to try it well made, and thus the strong feelings against it.

    At least that's why I dont usually grab Hawaiian pizza.

  • I can speak to this (Canadian, we have Thanksgiving in October, i get high because parts of my family are hard right Conservatives): If I get stoned for dinner (after preparing dinner), I don't feel like shit when people rag on the food or bring up trash political takes. Being high makes me calmer.

    Also I don't care if people know I'm high, so that helps.

    If I do stay sober, I have to hear how minorities are ruining the country and be accused of poisoning people by not making a healthy meal... which makes me anxious.

  • Discounts

  • It costs more, but those are indirect costs associated with marketing. Most executives only look at sales and expenses and don't think in indirect costs, regardless of how many business people try to explain. So the costs are marketing, we either cut the costs or we cut the budget, but not change what we are doing. Or they don't care, because of the above collusion mentioned in another comment, or because they want to spend on marketing for their golf buddy, the marketing CEO.

    Does it drive me insane, as someone who has a marketing and accounting degree, and had to explain it a bunch of times? Yes. Also most high level executives make up a fantasy version of how the business is being run and feel anyone who doesn't agree is inherently wrong.

  • Looked up the director, and can't say I have seen anything beyond Cloverfield Paradox, which didn't wow me. So maybe hiring someone who didn't really do any work for 4 years didn't make an interesting movie? This whole project seems like someone hated Falcon and Winter Soldier and vowed to make it so terrible that no one will ever watch it again.

    It seemed like an easy bunt of a movie: Make a 90s political thriller (like they did with Winter Soldier) and call it a day. Yet here we are, a lackluster release. Just scrap it for taxes.
