As a gay male; we do not.

Yep.

Being complacent about how laws and ruling are currently being used, instead of being concerned about how they can be used, is why we've seen abortion bans and restrictions in the USA in recent years.

Why crucify the lawyer?

In order for someone to be punished in a just society, they need to have a trial.
In order for that trial to also be just, both sides need to be able to put forth their side of what happened.
In order to make sure that there isn't a mistrial, both sides need competent lawyers, and the case needs a competent judge.

The alternative is that that police can just target people they don't like, knowing that they likely can't defence themselves, even if they are innocent.

Formatting thing: if you start a line in a new paragraph with four spaces, it assumes that you want to display the text as a code and won't line break.

This means that the last part of your comment is a long line that people need to scroll to see. If you remove one of the spaces, or you remove the empty line between it and the previous paragraph, it'll look like a normal comment

With an empty line of space:

1 space - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don't really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

2 spaces - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don't really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

3 spaces - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don't really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

Why do you mention gearscouts so often?

Do you own the site?

Cannon fights between boats were often similar to turn-based.

They were considering selling 49%, but the percentage is meaningless without looking at the articles, the bylaws, and resolutions. A lot of corporations make things more strict than the Bus Corp. act. You can always make things more strict, you can't make them more lax.

In fact, some things require a "Special Resolution" which is 2/3rds.
BUT, that can mean 2/3 of the shareholders who show up, as long as enough people show up to make a quorum.
And a quorum can be as small as 1 person, again, depending on the Articles, bylaws, and resolutions.

If you feel like learning about the Saskatchewan Business Corporations act, here is it:

Are you sure that it's linoleum, and not VCT?

Question what is considered 6th grade.

This is a statement, telling the reader to consider, or be skeptical of, what the common understanding of what 6th grade is.

Question: what is considered 6th grade?

This asking the reader what most people think 6th grade is.


So, how did you read the comment? It isn't a question; it's a statement in both sense of the word.

Someone replied to you using her legal name Marliana Smith. If you curious as to why, she brought forward a law designed to hurt transgendered children, to require parental consent for schools to call them anything but their first name. Since she doesn't even go by her first name, some people now refuse to call her by her middle name, which she prefers.

She's financed by oil companies, a hypocrite, a liar, and rallies her voters by creating imaginary enemies out of "the other",. A very prototypical far-right politician.

If you look at who is doing the work it'll give you a clue.

Most of them were international students who'd recently graduated or other newcomers working their first job in Canada.

Getting a job when your first language isn't English is hard. It's also hard when all of your references might not speak English, are half a world away, and you don't really have a "network" in Canada. You might be willing to put up with a lot of shit in order to have some work history in Canada.

This has a few caveats, you need to know what you're getting into.

This is a low-budget movie about homelessness in Winnipeg (Canada), in the 1990s. It's a "slice of life" movie, meaning that it's not about a tightly written story, but about trying to get a view into the lives of these characters.

It's about the bitter irony of being homeless and trying to sell a heater in order to survive while trying to not freeze.
It's not exciting, but it is my favourite holiday movie.

 

Alien.top's raison-d'etre is to create bots and repost things from Reddit.

The instance makes a bot with the same username as the poster from reddit, then makes a bot with the same username as all the commenters, and re-posts each comment.

Every alien.top user in this thread is a bot.

I did a quick check, and it looks like 138 of the comments are bots.
