Cas Anvar, one of the main cast. Between the filming and release of the 5th season a massive wave of sexual harassment and assault allegations came out about him. He was dropped from the show for the final season in response to an investigation of the claims.

Going through The Expanse again. Such a good show that unfortunately got soured towards the end by a bad egg in the cast. But I’m enjoying it regardless, the work everyone else put into that show deserves praise. They found such a good balance point on the hard vs. soft sci-fi spectrum. Just enough realism and scientific accuracy to make the setting feel authentic without getting in the way of the story.

And Dominique Tipper as Naomi effortlessly code switching as she interacts with Inners and Belters is astounding. Not just her, all the Belter actors do such a great job with their dialects, but because of her screen time and back story it’s a lot more varied for her.

And if anyone hasn’t watched Community through at least 5 times, they’re streets behind.

I love both, but I actually prefer Atlantis’s ongoing series arc over the more episodic/season arc structure of SG-1.

Possibly unpopular opinion (?): Universe was a fantastic show that got cancelled right as it was getting really good. Stargate’s answer to Voyager and Battlestar Galactica. Really wish we could have gotten more of it. With the way they left things, it’s not too late to revive it if they can get actors on board. They can easily explain cast aging or not returning with the final cliffhanger.

Genera are within families, not the other way around. Maybe read a book?

Also: the genus Panthera consists of 5 big cats. The other two big cats that aren’t in Panthera are the cougar, which is also colloquially called a panther, and the cheetah.

So, in fact, “panther” can refer to any big cat other than cheetahs.

Cursed cat… hands? Paws? Somewhere in between?

This seems like a fun game, but I have absolutely no clue what this one is. Seems like no one else does either. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You can call it whatever you want, as long as it equals 1/2 it’s the same number.

So yes, multiplying by 2/2 to make it more intuitively obvious is perfectly valid and a good way to think about it. Most arithmetic tricks are ultimately multiplying by 1 or adding 0 just to make the problem easier to handle.

Seriously, why is basic arithmetic worthy of so much discussion?

Just… do the math. It’s not complicated math.

Same here, but I hate it. My body clearly fights against me and when I take time off I naturally drift towards my preferred sleeping schedule.

I wish I had the option to adjust my work schedule, but I don’t. (Inb4 “get a new job” without any consideration for why I might not be able to do that or why that might not get me the result I want.)

Agnostic atheist: Doesn’t believe in any gods, claims the existence or nonexistence of gods is fundamentally unknowable

Gnostic atheist: Doesn’t believe in any gods, claims to know no gods exist

Agnostic theist: Believes in god(s), claims the existence or nonexistence of gods is fundamentally unknowable

Gnostic theist: Believes in god(s), claims to know that those god(s) exist

I think all four types of people exist in decent numbers, but personally I, as an agnostic atheist, think either version of agnosticism is the only logically sound position. Gnosticism just feels disingenuous to me. Unfortunately I get the feeling that Christianity in the US is slipping further and further towards gnostic theism, and with that comes very dogmatic and oppressive rhetoric and actions.

Both my brother and my brother-in-law are professional chefs and they each eat the weirdest nonsense on their own. It’s like their palettes have to be so refined at work that they need to throw the wildest combos of flavors together at home to feel like they’re eating something different.

So if anything I think this qualifies you as the “chef guy.”

“Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to inform you of a fire that has broken out at the promises of…”

Seriously, this guy should have been awarded the refund, all legal fees, and at least a couple thousand on top of that for damages. Anyone who’s been on the receiving end of corporate bullshit and tried to fight back knows the extreme stress that can put you under.

Obligatory: Fuck you, Comcast, you dirty thief.

Lol, are you seriously still peddling the “if you don’t vote for Hillary you’re sexist” bullshit? It was pathetically transparent back in 2016, it’s downright delusional now.

Couldn’t have anything to do with her being an unapologetic war hawk. Or a Clinton (the last one helped set up our economy to crash in 2008). Or a weak candidate with weak positions pandering to the middle even during the primary instead of pushing left. Or an entitled narcissist who colluded with the DNC leadership to put their thumb on the scale. Or a petulant child who was too busy smearing her primary opponent even after the general was over to take responsibility for the fact that she and her campaign directly gave us Trump by propping him up as a pied piper.

If you click through to it, the actual study uses Celsius. The Fahrenheit is just the journalist converting.

If this is real and in the US, I would love to see a Gen Xer or elder Millennial apply, make sure to mention their generation, and then get this dumbass owner to say in writing that they aren’t hiring them because they aren’t a Boomer.

IANAL, but that seems like a slam dunk age discrimination case as long as the applicant is at least 40.

I’m becoming increasingly interested in doing this as well. What all needs to be put in place for it to happen?

*Gasp* I told you that in confidence!
