Aint No Right

It certainly is a lot. But it's not rich. Look at this way. Hopefully there's a good accountant. But lets say for example you are freelancer, as I am. Lets say you earn 200K a year. That's $16,666 per month. You need to pay quarterly taxes. 35% per month put aside is $6,000. That's $10,600 left ove...

I'm in. Somewhere between M and L.

A side note...the term "reverse" racism is BS to me...black people don't have the power to be racist...prejudice yes, racist no. There is a distinct difference... I'm curious to know how black people can't be racist. Or why you think black people don't have the power to be racist. racism is institu...

"it's been harder to move on with other things" gosh pith, waves.

found "everyday robots" a bit boring, tho I listened to it when I was kinda sleepy. if y'all are diggin' it tho . . . might be worth a second glance. heck, I practically owe it to him

I might go to the Baltimore show assuming I can still get tix in September. Anyone know anything about the venue in Baltimore ?

Why does a citizen have to embrace, reflect, or represent the sins of their government?

A few foundational U.S. Constitutional Cases were based on Jehovah's witnesses refusal to have their children pledge allegiance to the flag. I don't think people should have to pledge to something, it's really not that important and I find the conformity and message oppressive.

LFJ, what's the difference? the government is making the decision either way: Either the government permits large soda drinks or the the government prohibits them. Either decision constitutes an affirmative act on the part of the government. Just because one feels more coercive does not make it anal...

Okay, I can see you think that, but I think in this case it's not accurate. If every author, poet, playwright, singer, etc., who used Shakespeare's words were accused of being unoriginal, you'd have to get rid of a massive amount of the canon. you assume that unoriginality means getting rid of a lo...

Not necessarily. Wasn't Trujillo in the band during the induction? Coulda been weird to not include a current member.

I agree it's mostly an empty sentiment. Like a corporation apologizing for an "alleged" scandal.

Now I see there's a pediatrician refusing to treat kids that are not vaccinated.

No

they aren't the same, no. but generally, people complain about eric's voice. that's a fair point of comparison I think.

yikes. Decon sucks? Mescal, for shame . . .

Question for people who don't like Deconstruction - do you happen to like joy division?

I've been following this pretty closely. Very freaky. I have no idea what could have happened.

I know it may sound as though I am painting with a broad brush, but it seems as though more kids in this generation (as compared to mine :oldtimer: ) have a sense of entitlement. With regard to this ridiculous lawsuit, the plaintiff does not seem to have much of a case (or a sympathetic judge for t...

I have a good friend who performs under the moniker of Griz in the EDM scene. Made quite a name for himself.

Ya, Hype, you're fuct.

I understand the doc's frustration, but he seems like a dick and I don't agree with his position. A man who has dedicated his life to helping others is a dick, really. Would you say people that smoke and subject others to the second hand smoke are dicks? What if after reviewing his practice he real...

I this an open-letter is a good idea, Artemis. Plus we have members that have widely-read blogs and some who are relatively plugged-in. However, I think the letter should point to some broader action or demand we will make, as the keepers of Jane's' legacy. Reasons for doing this: 1) We are bored. 2...
