In fairness, it’s Wired who called them creatives, while Adobe called them artists.

Influencers are paid product shills. Most have no scruples or real positions. They produce whatever content will attract followers so that they can maximize their sponsorship dollars. These aren’t serious opinions anyone should pay much mind to.
She, in particular, does seem to be earning more rebuke from her Republican peers of late. Some of them have recognized that the antics on display by Greene and her ilk are beginning to wear on constituents more and more by the day, and are attempting to distance themselves in acts of self preservation.
While I hope that it doesn’t work and that these folks also lose their voice and seat, it does seem to bode well that at least a minor course correction is happening in the GOP, if not far too late. I’m not completely optimistic, though, because the constituency hasn’t suddenly become less divided - we’ve just seemingly found the bounds of the caricature the right wing of this country is comfortable with being publicly represented by.
Target’s difficulty in Canada had more to do with logistics and existing trucking routes than anything else. They assumed they could push Canadian governments to allow for the creation of new carrier contracts, but they were wrong, and as a result their supply chain was immediately hamstrung.
The stores in Canada had a harder time getting goods, which caused the company to raise prices accordingly. Images of the stores show many empty shelves, which doesn’t encourage shopping. Canadian consumers weren’t without other options locally, and those shoppers on the US border found it easier and more advantaged to cross over and shop at Target stores in the US should they have a need.
Not true. If terminated for performance concerns, most companies would consider that “for cause” meaning that you would be ineligible for severance. The only costs are the OpEx of the manager and HR team member’s time in addition to the “lost productivity” that your underperformance caused.
And yet people are considering withholding votes for, or voting against Biden. As a Jew who believes in Israel’s right to exist, I guess I now hate Israel and my Judaism. It’s okay. Self loathing is something most stereotypes declare we’re comfortable with at this point.
It turned out alright, but it would’ve done better and had a stronger continued player base if it had just been a BF3/BF4 rehash. BF players are similar to CS players. New things come and go, but Dust 2 and Gulf of Oman are forever.
And those pesky federalist papers that explicitly clarified the intent significantly closer to the context of the period.
Gets downvoted for decrying bad people and wishing for peace. Damn.
I interpreted her point about scholarly rigor to be referring to allegations of plagiarism. She’s vehemently denying those allegations, but she does address them. Otherwise, I agree that it’s likely other prejudices had a part to play in her dismissal.
Requisite, Billy Mitchell is a lying, manipulative, cheating, litigious fraud.
This article is basically summed up: “VPNs don’t completely eliminate your digital footprint, so don’t use them unless you need to accomplish these specific things.”
It seems pretty disingenuous to discourage people from taking steps to protect their privacy in this way. It may not be sponsored, but it’s still bullshit.
Do you feel that “left” as you’ve defined it means democrat?
In principle? No. In practice? The US’s elections are governed by first past the post voting. Until we reform how politicians are elected by enacting more sensible term limits, make lobbying illegal and remove other moneyed interests from public service, and institute ranked choice voting or something similar, the only responsible party to vote for winds up being the Democratic Party despite them not aligning with my preferences on either end of the spectrum.
Ultimately, I think I’m something like a Libertarian who supports taxes for the betterment of society. I think centralized government’s responsibility is to provide services for the constituents they represent and to ensure that our laws are centered on maintaining as much individual liberty as possible.
That guy may not, but I do. So, yes to recognizing the validity of the 14th Amendment’s applicability to Trump thereby rendering him ineligible for office, and to all gun laws being an infringement. If you go left far enough, you get your guns back.
Then he should pay 100% of his worth and live penniless as a pauper for the rest of his days. Any and all assets and earnings above minimum wage should be garnished for the rest of his life. Let him be an indentured servant.
He looked like Arab Steve Harvey.
I don’t disagree from a purely American standpoint, but I’d caution against calling a war where Ukrainians are being so heavily impacted daily and Ukrainian soldiers are fighting and dying “cheap”. It’s an inexpensive investment in the security of the region and the world on the US’s part, but no war is cheap.
At this point he is in too deep. His only hope is that by continuing to deny any wrongdoing and continued efforts to delay things will work long enough that Donny can reclaim the white house and pardon him. If he recants now, he’s assuredly going to prison. That said - I suspect if he flipped and offered to testify against Trump, ‘ol Rudy might be able to secure a sweetheart deal. He’s far and away the closest person other than Trump himself who could best detail the extent of their criminal activities.
Straightforward enough. Dots and tics in fives. And a weird croissant for some reason.
My favorite part about modern republicans is that they made me look back fondly on former republican leaders who I used to despise. “Ahhhhh… binders of women. Those were the days.”
