It's also an issue of what is typical vs what we would like to happen. There are a ton of jobs that men just happen to be far more interested in. The algorithm probably picks up on this and funnels job adds towards the kind of jobs that fit your demographic. A lot of people wish everything was...
This is more jiggering with the terminology. These companies were not given "taxpayer money." They were given tax breaks, meaning they got to keep more of their own money. Also, I don't see any of these cable companies making "vast profits" that articles like the one in the OP keep alluding...
Because it's their network? Either way, they're going to charge somebody. At least this way they can charge a big monopoly that makes record profits rather than having to make their money entirely from customers.
Again, it's only anti competitive if it's a "fast lane for me, not for thee." If everyone has equal access to the fast lane for the same price, then it's just get what you pay for. And again, netflix, Facebook, etc are already monopolies. I dont care if they have to cough up more money. You dont...
Personally, I dont have any problem with ISPs forcing providers of big content, which are mostly monopolies, to pay more into the network. As long as everyone is offered a similar deal (If you want access to this fast lane, you have to pay x amount.) without engaging in anti competitive...
This was my immediate thought as well. Studies have shown that different color wall paper causes different emotional reactions. The wrong color in prisons, for example, has been shown to increase violent behavior. Isn't it possible that black, as a color, just has an ingrained human response...
Okay, I just read the video in James Gunn's blog post was not child porn, but rather a video of underage girls singing "I Touch Myself." Thjs is the video he claims he "jizzed in his face" over. This video was sent to him by Huston Huddleston, who was arrested on child porn charges about a year...
Wow, how is this remotely similar? What he is clearly saying is that it doesnt make make sense to consider "date rape" as some special category, because all rape is forceful. How is that equivalent to posting a blog where you talk about how jizztastick a piece of child porn that somebody sent...
In a since-deleted 2010 blog post titled “Video: 100 Pubescent Girls Touch Themselves,” Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn wrote, “Huston Huddleston posted this video on my Facebook page with the note ‘I thought you’d appreciate this.’ My response: ‘Appreciate it?!! I just came all over...
This. A lot of people here are acting like he was just making edgy jokes, which some of it was, but at one point, he talked about viewing a video with "pubescent" children touching themselves and said he came all over his own face watching it, joking that pedophiles probably got a massive...
