They used to not have the right to marry in the US, and many people advocate for that to return. In some places on this planet, they don't get the right to live.

There is no one even advocating to take rights away from straight people, let alone beheading them.

I found this a bit confusing, but I think the core of this is really that Waffle House staff don't get a choice on whether or not they buy a meal during their shift. Is that right?

I kind of got that gist from the article, but nothing super clear. It said that employees pay for the meal whether they eat it or not, which if you ordered food and didn't eat it, that's kinda on you. I think it should be saying that they are charged for the meal whether they ordered it or not, if that's what is happening.

Abortion rights are based on the bodily autonomy of the woman, not the status of the fetus.

Even a fully grown adult cannot use another person's body without consent.

Do they pay for these plates and IDs with cash, or with a coupon from their secret government trust?

Kite flyer, kite maker.

I've been flying multi-line, controllable sport kites for over half of my life. I attend kite festivals very frequently and occasionally travel throughout the US or internationally for kite festivals.

About 6 years ago, I started building my own sport kites. Now days, I have a workshop with 5 sewing machines, 2 3d printers, and other equipment, all of it revolving around kite making.

I can't really imagine my life without kites involved.

A checkbox is for a form that requires clicking a submit button to apply the change.

A toggle switch should apply the change automatically and immediately without a separate save or submit button.

It's hard to make time for sex when you are learning how to fly a kite from its tail. The man is defying basic physics right there.

Yes, you can blame Israelis. There is no excuse for genocide.

Anyone who codenses candidates down to a "score" or a "number is doing it wrong.

Zillow over payed for houses, then couldn't sell them as quickly as expected because the COVID housing market took a down turn, and so they sold them at a loss, lost millions of dollars, and closed the house buying business. They also made plenty of low offers or under-payed for houses at times. They were trying to break even on home value on the hole, but couldn't reign in the wild swings of gains and losses. Their entire business model was based on the seller fees, not on the house value.

In any case, they closed that business in 2021, and has since sold the rest of their inventory.

I don't see how that would have a lasting effect on housing prices though. I'd attribute it more to a housing shortage due to people buying up real estate, and keeping it as rentals. Even when operating, Zillow aimed to resell houses within 3 months, not hold on to them as investments.

Define "engineer" in a way that accurately describes what you think is an "engineer" while simultaneously excluding software engineers.

You know you are being closed minded and irrational when you say "no one is going to convince me of ____".

Way to keep yourself from growing as a person and learning new things!
