Money.

The answer to any “Why is company X fucking everyone?” is always because it makes some asshole somewhere an obscene amount of profit.

I knew exactly what it would be. Watched the whole thing anyway.

I call Dr. Zaius.

Depends. Only 7 US states still recognize common law, and some have hefty length of cohabitation requirements.

The corporation continues as a separate legal entity. The business assets and liabilities belong to the corporation itself, not its owner. His shares would be passed to his next of kin or, if he didn’t have one, would become property of the state and most likely auctioned off.

Cultural Marxism conspiracy theory

Cultural Marxism is a far-right antisemitic conspiracy theory that misrepresents Western Marxism (especially the Frankfurt School) as being responsible for modern progressive movements, identity politics, and political correctness.

Assumedly, since it was a red shirt that proclaimed the wearer was a Cultural Marxist, that it was poking fun. Proclaiming “I am responsible for progressivism!” in effect.

“Economies go up and down, it doesn’t matter.”

Is probably the least politically and economically conscious thing you could have said.

Are you paying attention AT ALL to what’s currently going on in the world? Or do you just not give a shit?

Leaving out the fact that America’s economy is in freefall and it’s currently experiencing a fascist collapse is…a choice.

No, you just spewed some brain dead nonsense about television characters.

Why don’t you take a break and have a juice box? This conversation is obviously flying over your head.

What’s more important? Your sister or whether or not she practices Islam?

You can absolutely take the fundamentalist route on this, but 99% likelihood it won’t work and she’ll disappear from your life forever. People who’ve already made the decision to leave their faith almost never respond positively to threats of damnation to make them return.

Do you have non-Muslim friends? If so, you might need to examine your feelings and opinions about why it’s okay for them to not be Muslim, but not your sister.

Bottom line is every human being makes their own decisions about what to believe. Your sister has made her decision. You can support that or not, depending on what you’re comfortable with, but you can’t just decide to change her decision for her. Life doesn’t work that way.

I personally have never lived somewhere where I don’t lock the doors, even if I’m home. It just makes me feel safer.

Conversely, my dad, who lives about 15 minutes from me, has never locked the front door of the house in the 45 years I’ve been alive. When he goes away somewhere, he leaves the garage door unlocked so neighbors can borrow tools and the kids in the neighborhood can grab a ball if they need one. Nothing has ever gone missing.

If you want to continue having a relationship with your sister, let her make her own choices.

Nothing says “I need to never speak to my family again.” like some good old religious oppression.

The traditional depiction of Baphomet, since before Christianity has existed, has had a goat head.

Turn off the television.

…okay.

Because Reddit is a haven for power tripping white supremacists who ban any opinion they don’t like.

Trying to conduct my day as normal (food needs buying and bills need to be paid, after all), but with a marked increase of episodes of staring of into space internally shrieking as avenues of opportunity and life plans made years ago are irrevocably altered.

What’s the alternative? Give up? That doesn’t help anyone.

Ah yes, because nothing says “sound military strategy” like depriving civilians of fresh water.

One of them was a photo showing that Epstein had a giant oil painting of Bill’s head on Monica Lewinsky’s body entitled “Worn by Bill Clinton” that Bill was unaware of.

More children for the Trump / Epstein international body count.

Maybe if we ask the parents nicely we can bury them at a ranch in New Mexico.
