‘New atheists’ don’t own atheism.

For all the emotion she was trying to convey it sure never touched her eyes.
Great post. It seems like a lot of people aren’t used to using the product of community efforts over commercial efforts and their expectations and feeling of entitlement match that experience. Like they’ve bought a product and want to complain to the manager when they experience a problem.
This post is for all the doubters, haha.
Thanks for all your work, I’ve been using this app in this form and it’s previous for over a decade now.
This is a primary, not the general. If now is not the time to make moves to apply pressure, then when? If there’s never a good time, then nevermind Trump, your democracy is already dead.
If this were designed in such a way that the metal plates surrounding the connector pins went fairly deep into the plastic casing, this would make for a very durable cable.
I’m not a coder but I relate to being a lot more attracted to the idea of problem solving than writing a well-formed document that communicates ideas clearly, haha.
That’s the most painful part of all.
That’s meaty. Thanks for all your hard work.
Create a sleep schedule and stick to it religiously. Drink more water.
Why do you think a Levantine Trail of Tears is an acceptable solution rather than ethnic cleansing?
One reason why Musk bought Twitter this week is because he had little choice. The world’s richest man spent months trying to back out of the $44 billion purchase agreement he originally signed in April. But the uncertainty was so disruptive to Twitter’s business that it sued him in the Delaware Court of Chancery to force the deal’s completion, and a judge gave a Friday deadline to complete the deal or face a November trial that Musk was likely to lose.
This is all bullshit. Self-aggrandizing lies to give the appearance that this massive failure was all in the plan. The guy was trying to play games with stocks and got caught. He’s a dumbass with no idea how the business he didn’t want to own but was forced to buy in the end works. It’s not deeper than that.
I’m sure his daughter hating him is very upsetting but it’s not why he set 40 billion dollars on fire.
If they were forced out why is there an article about trying to coax them back into work? If they needed to work they would presumably be trying to find work rather than sitting retired having the capitalist class trying to think of ways to make them get back on the production floor. These are people with at least some money.

This is what happens when you quickly scan articles looking for ways to dunk on people without actually grasping the content of the piece.
Also, you’re coming at me as though I support what the article is saying. I don’t. I just don’t have the greatest sympathy for people with enough wealth to think they can retire at 50. Even if the retirement is a little tighter than they thought.
Why did you quote a paragraph referencing people who took an early retirement as evidence that this article is not aimed at exactly that group?
The article explicitly about coaxing (or coercing depending on your perspective) older workers who left the workforce due to covid back into the workforce? Yes, I did read that. Did you?
That’s exactly who they are targeting as noted in the article. The unretired 50-64 year olds are still in the labour force.
I’m really conflicted about this. On the one hand, I am not defined by my contribution to the economy, the value capital owners are able to skim off my labour. Fuck off with that.
On the other, 50-64 year olds who could afford to retire early are exactly the demographic buying into nativist anti-immigration rhetoric resulting in this, and it’s a bit funny thinking about that group getting hoisted by their own petard.
As far as I can tell most nights I fall asleep immediately. Occasionally I’ll have some trouble but not so often that I can remember the last time.
I couldn’t tell you, I don’t pay much attention to any such people. Including Hitchens. I came to my atheism the traditional way, I went through Catholic school.
