Companies supporting LGBQ matters is a good litmus test for society's overall progress. Rainbow capitalism should be looked at with skepticism, but it does mean something.

Can I ask a sensitive question? This question is for LGBTQ+ people who actually work or worked at a company when it adopted or dropped participating in the program. Does the CEI actually have an effect on the company's workplace tolerance or it is just something they do for appearances? Has a company that decided to drop participating become more intolerant or did they maintain the practices, but maybe considered the program itself an unnecessary expense?
Edit: One more question. If you're a LGBTQ+ person who works or worked at a company with a good score. Did/does your experience match company's score?

Where does it say Disney is paying for it? If it was Disney donating the trips, it's not really costing them much to do that.
If it was NYC businesses or tax payers, then yeah. They're probably not getting much of a discount and the money could either have been spent on more productive activities or even just a closer theme park.

I mean, it's their first accusation because they are there when it happens. They're trying to get in front of the story and make noise so when the pictures of Epstein and Trump together get released, they can just hand wave it as Trump investigating Epstein even know there's never been anything like that released.

I get why you would see someone calling it a joke and want to punish that because it was not funny and potentially dangerous.
Please define punishment in the context. Is criticizing Musk punishment?
But it can both be true that he was trying to make a joke, and that he was grossly irresponsible doing so.
What's the point you're trying to arrive at? Where he's making jokes or making stochastic terrorist comments, I can criticize him either way.
You are telling me what i believe (that it wasnt a big deal)
Everyone is coming to that conclusion. If you think everyone is misinterpreting your comments, that's because you are not a good communicator. I do not have the same problems as you.

Im saying i think he truly believes he wasnt being serious. I think he was being edgy and sarcastically accusing democratic elite of an assassination attempt.
You might think he's being edgy. Hell, he might think(if he ever thinks) he's being edgy, but out of the numerous people who blindly follow him, how many do you think need to take him seriously and take him up on the suggestion.
There are jokes you can make to a private group of friends that you can't make to over a million people unless you really mean it. It doesn't help that twitter has a short character limit on messages. You simply cannot have a nuanced opinion on that site and need to consider that when making posts there.

The primaries are over. The risk of Trump is too high and people spreading 3rd Party ideas right now many be trying to demotivate progressives from voting for Harris. I mean, I'm not a big fan of Harris, but I'll still be voting for her over Trump.

I never really described myself as a Gamer, but I wouldn't deny it if someone called me one. Blizzard fans have made me describe myself as someone who plays games, but is not a Gamer(tm).
I think the only "AAA" thing I'll consider is the next Doom game, but fuck preordering. Dark Ages actually looks slow compared to what I look for now anyway.

It's old tech actually. They use it in pacemakers because it's too difficult to replace or recharge the batteries. I guess you could do wireless charging now, but would you feel much safer with a lithium battery inside of you without a good cooling system? The body's internal temperature is surprisingly warm when you start doing the engineering.

Exposure to one virus rarely leads to a resistance to another one. That's why they have a new flu vaccine every year even though they're all closely related. Cow pox immunizating against small pox was a fluke
It's more about being exposed to everyday bacteria, pollen, and hot/cold cycling that gives your immune system exercise.

He was always like this, but his comics weren't that deep and the ideas in them were just things people sent him. They were vague enough that we all just put our own meanings into them. Rewatch some of the cartoon, and you'll see the red flags. The Bob Bastard episode clearly comes from an incel mindset.

Community college ostensibly for people who don't have a good track record from High School, but is often advertised as the cheap, local option for people who don't want to feel bad about having to go. I did in fact try community college and it's really just high school material with smaller text. I even took it in parallel with an edX equivalent and the material wasn't even close to each other. The idea that CC is suppose to replace the first 2 years at a real college is terrifying and reinforces how much of the professional word is theater. If you do any number of years at a community college, you should be able to apply as a freshman to a real college if you want.
This might be considered drama, but I thought some people might be interested in an update. [March Wayback Machine listing.](http://web.archive.org/web/20240303195402/https://msm.gg/talent/) [Current List.](https://msm.gg/talent) For those out of the loop, back in May, [FalseEyed broke a story about MSM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elWtq_Jbokg). Right after that, several vtubers shared their own stories about dealing with the CEO and his bad behavior. Just afterward, Aethel made two statements. [The first one saying that he's talking to HIS laywers](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wZyvi06wxw). [The second announcing his departure.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngpKTAQdhKg) Since then, the company has been shedding talents. I assume more are just waiting for their contracts to run out and want to leave quietly. According to Krimbo, the MSM CEO is largely responsible for Takahata101's burnout last year. It will be interesting to see who shows back up in the bar now that Taka is back. Edit: Another four dropped since I posted this. GhostySaige, Nagzz, RPR and Vexoria. Most of the open drama is happening on Twitter, which I don't use, so I can only relay second hand info. MSM's Director of Talent also bailed yesterday with the support of exMSM talents. Edit 2: and the talent page is empty. Some back and forth going on on twitter. Edit 3: [Falseeyed's coverage of the msm fallout.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WZ3c6ecKeM)
As of this posting, she's still in the prep/warmup room. She previously went viral for her "The Troubles" lecture on Saint Patrick's Day.
old: https://virtualyoutuber.fandom.com/wiki/Miyune new: https://virtualyoutuber.fandom.com/wiki/MinikoMew Weird that she would abandon a 100k+ identity for a rebrand when her old IP already had a serious redesign. It was bothering me where she went when she disappeared out of the blue. One of her notable collabs was being the first to collab with Neuro-sama.
I'm not looking for answers. Just directions on what keywords for lectures on the topic. I can find CS stuff when looking, but that feels too esoteric for high school geometry?
Former Tsunderia talent, turned PC manager, turned PC talent, Dizzy also did a stream titled: [Why You Should NOT Join Phase Connect](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EISYXWbU-0A) where she explained what it means to go from being an indie to a corpo talent. What is expected of you, what groups success means, deadline expectations. I think one of the reasons for PC's success has been setting realistic expectations with their talents. I think part of the reason for this steam is to dissuade the people who previous would have misunderstood what PC can and cannot do you for.
Either I never belonged in the remedial classes, the GED is a participation trophy, or both are true. Bonus, I tested out of community college geometry, but struggle with online high school geometry. I mostly wanted the college class to have classroom support for the online high school classes. They refused to let me take the class because I tested out of it.
I had a customer come into my garden center today and ask for "those mini sweet peppers. you know, the ones grocery stores sell". I have no idea what those peppers are. I suggested a sweet pimento, but they wanted the grocery store was selling. I linked to what I think the person was talking about.
I was thinking of how people on the old internet would just create and share stuff for the simple sake of doing it, without trying to grind the algorithm. This woman in the mid 00's would bike through Chernoby, taking pictures and checking rad levels along the way. Her anglefire page is defunk, but she has a [youtube page](https://www.youtube.com/@miscellaneousstuff8362/videos) now. And for an added level of interesting, [here's the slashdot page where I originally found it.](https://science.slashdot.org/story/04/03/05/2127221/chernobyl18-years-later)
Hello, I'm creating a BoM for a youth group project. We're planning on building the Electromagnetic Ring Accelerator from Hyperspace Pirate. He's provided the 3d print files, but not the finer details on wire gauge, enamel wire gauge and ball size. I also want to confirm the photoresistor. Are there different photoresistors with with different sensitivities or ranges? I've included the wip of the BoM.
I'm in a catch 22 situation. I want to go to a four year college, but I was previously placed in the remedial track and have a poor academic standing. If I go to a community college, I could improve my grades, but the material they cover is a replacement for high school classes and I'd be precluded from signing up for entry classes at the four year college. This seems like to would put me at a disadvantage when that finally happened and I would only be setting myself up for long term failure. I'd consider CC if I could "transfer" in as a freshman to a four year, but the colleges I looked into all have rules against applying as a freshman if you have two years worth of credits. When I tried CC, the material was absolutely high school level just with smaller font in the textbooks.
I've been seeing a lot of usernames formatted "[lowercase][fourdigits]" or "user-[randomletternumbers]". Normally, I'd assume that that just means the name was already taken and the numbers are manually entered to make it unique, but the formatting is too consistent. Is that something google is doing automatically? The other one is real weird. Is that something some proxy sites are doing for anonymous posting?
