Loosely, it’s rape any time you have sex with someone who doesn’t currently want to be having sex with you. That’s pretty much the broadest possible terms.

That might be me. I’m a millennial by age, but I have always been keeping up with the newer tech. My father worked for Microsoft so we always had the new stuff as soon as it was available. And I’m a weirdo little autistic trans girl, so I didn’t really socialize that much with my own age group even when it was an option.
I agree that it’s not a useful metric to apply to an individual. “Ok boomer” aside, there is too much variation within a generation for it to be a useful way to draw any conclusions about a single person.
Where generations are useful is in demography. There is no strict dividing line between a lot of kids of demographics, but categorizing them can still give us useful data for studying populations
We all take that chance every second of every day, only difference is how strong the presumption is. I am currently confident that I can remain in the country without my life being threatened by the us military in the short term. If trump wins, the numbers will change, but the conclusion will not, at least not immediately.
Sure, but I don’t think that’s a salient threat in the near term.
What would stop a Trump Gestapo from marching into one of those cities?
Presumably the human people in the military who would prevent it, at least until removed. And the people in the other branches of government who would object to the deployment of federal troops for an overly offensive purpose against the us itself.
I mean, probably not? That doesn’t sound like an “official act”. He could just order the US armed forces to indefinitely confine him in a black site, though. Commanding the military is in the Constitution, it’s definitely official
Erin in the Morning does one for the various United States, if it gets so bad that federal regulations attack us, I wouldn’t be surprised to see cities and states declaring themselves official sanctuaries like they do for immigration
It is worth noting that the article itself does bring employment rate into it, stating that the reason for the real wages spiking like that did in 2020 was the lower wage employees leaving work, thus raising the average wage.
I haven’t seen the data on employment rate, but if the bottom end of employees are still not back to being as employed as they were at the start of the pandemic, then that may be keeping average wages higher than they’d otherwise be
The “real wages” is just the difference between the nominal wages and inflation. It’s negative when wages have increased but not as much as inflation, and positive when they’ve increased more than inflation.
So the literal number of dollars people are getting have been going up the whole time, but for a while there the amount of stuff your money could buy you was going down anyway. It’s recently the case that the amount of stuff you could buy has been going up. Not, you know, a lot, but…
I think the stated purpose of Airbnb is fine, allowing people to rent out their homes for short term while they’re off vacation or something. I think the reality of what actually happens is pretty not okay, people buying properties all over and only ever renting them using Airbnb without ever actually living there and while preventing anyone else from living there
So he has to kill enough of them at once?
I mean, do we not remember when companies were literally locking employees into buildings as they come down in a raging inferno?
More than once?
They’re so much quieter, too. Not as easy to notice when you’re the one using the tool, but compare how it sounds to be nearby someone else using one and it’s a biiiig difference
Movies have worse scenes than this.
Heard it here first folks, if it’s in a movie, it’s not a war crime any more.
I’ll say that I mostly agree, it’s good to be critical and sceptical, but I do think that defense is well worse than lukewarm. I’d almost say if you treat your prisoners anywhere near as badly as they do in most movies, you’re already well into war crime territory.
Almost as moral as the fullest void is full

It’s totally illegal right up until it suddenly isn’t squatting any more
Wait, wait, wait. You’re telling me people leave their homes?!
You’re good, I just think it’s worth saying out loud. There’s probably plenty of parents who do think the Bible says it, even though it doesn’t
Online lending allows people in remote or rural places much more economical access to more titles than otherwise, even if they have access to a decent local library
