Reply to Iowa Alzheimer's care facility is fined $10,000 after pronouncing a living woman dead by JoelJohnstone
That’s a pretty steep fine for a minor mix up. Dead, not dead: what’s the difference really? /s

“Titled "Embrace," the 20-foot high statue was unveiled in Boston on Saturday, January 14, in the U.S.' oldest city park, Boston Common. Weighing 309 pounds, the statue sits on the site where the civil rights leader gave a speech on April 23, 1965.”
Regardless of whether it is ugly or not, how can a 20 foot high statue weigh only 309 pounds? Is it made out of marshmallow? If so, it’ll take care of itself after a couple of rains.

This tattoo is the very essence of irony, since the Bible forbids making marks on your skin. “You will not make cuttings in your flesh, for the dead, nor print marks on you” (Leviticus 19:28). Also, something about graven images. So, yeah. You might want to read the User Manual if you’re going to claim to be a Christian.

No, that would be Gary Cooper to Jimmy Stewart. Maybe someone even earlier.

“In hindsight, I realize how my handling of this matter could be viewed as inappropriate, but that was certainly not my intent,” she said.
Yup, another disingenuous apology by someone who knows what she did was wrong. “Could be viewed as inappropriate “?!?!? Please explain how this could be viewed any other way. Being a cop should be the easiest job to lose. Any sign of integrity issues, dishonesty, or incompetence should result in immediate dismissal with no chance of being a cop ever again. I’d also like to see them have double jeopardy, so that they get twice the penalty as non-cops when they break the law.

Reply to During the covid pandemic lots of medical scientific articles got published and then retracted due to errors, frauds and misconducts. In this study the authors explore what went wrong in the scientific path to publication and peer review process by AromaticChimpanzee
Basically, capitalism is ruining science. The pressure to publish and to have results that support your hypothesis incentivizes people to cheat. Should we be surprised?

As long as these are human-controlled, where a human makes the decision to fire; then I’m good with this. This is similar to allowing police to use firearms, which gives them the ability to engage at a distance instead of fighting with knives, clubs, or hands. A robot can engage in situations that may be too dangerous for a human. That seems good to me.

No, it is an old holiday in Georgia for Robert E Lee’s birthday. By the way, being an Abrahamic religion, Christian’s share the same sabbath as Jews. That they don’t agree on what day of the week that is amuses me immensely.

Of course Republican’ts don’t want to allow voting on Saturday; they know this would disadvantage them. Republican’ts hate democracy.

Reply to comment by MustLoveAllCats in Nevada passes sweeping version of Equal Rights Amendment by [deleted]
My comment is a way of saying that people who don’t support equal rights should be ashamed of themselves. It uses an idiom that is common in American English. It does not mean that they are externally ugly or are compelled by some spell that prevents them from physically looking in the mirror.

How can you look in the mirror if you’re against equal rights? Only bigots and fascists could oppose this!

Using that logic we should be thankful for Hitler, who clearly did the most to raise awareness if antisemitism. Thank you, Hitler!
