minimum wage increases are ok, but they're a textbook example of Liberalism's inability to look past capitalism. trying to make capitalism humane is not going to work. capitalism is not humane - from the ground up, it's built on exploitation.

if there was a Universal Basic Income, there would be no need for a minimum wage.

when you say "old school rap", how old school do you mean? are you talking early 2000s? 90s? 80s?

because there's some amazing hip hop being made now

I highly recommend Noname's Telefone and Ravyn Lenae's Moon Shoes - they're both heavily influenced by neo-soul

Earl Sweatshirt is another favourite of mine. his mixtape Earl is awesome and his first album Doris is imo the Illmatic of the 2010s. I haven't listened as extensively to I Don't Like Shit, I Don't Go Outside but it's great too

Thundercat and Esperanza Spalding are two bass players you might want to keep an eye on - they're both doing killer stuff all the time. Esperanza's Chamber Music Society is one of my favourite albums. Thundercat's Apocalypse is great too.

Joanna Newsom is... I'm not sure how I would describe her. maybe alt-folk? she's obviously heavily influenced by Bjork, but her lyrics are amazing.

another great group I've been listening to lately is the FOG Brass Band. they're from Montreal, led by a great trumpet player called Rebecca Hennessy.

... yeah. most of what I listen to is either hip hop or jazz. I know my way around some classical stuff too though, so if you're looking for contemporary recommendations from any of those I can hook you up

The teen, who was in seventh grade, is charged with aggravated sexual assault of a child. His girlfriend was a sixth-grader at the time.

Since when is 7th grade in high school, and 6th grade = 7th grade?

Your posting that link brings up a good point. I hope they can rewrite the ToS to adjust the wording to say "trans people" or "transgender people"

The community and some organizations have widely denounced the usage of the word "transgendered", as its a phrase that essentially puts the bulk of the concept on the activity of transitioning (hormones, surgery) as a form of validation of sorts of ones 'legit' trans status

It would be a small change on behalf of the site, and idk if trans people here really even care or have spoken about it before so it might not even be my place to bring it up with those in power

also, using "transgender" as a noun. why would anyone think that's ok?

Oh god, a noun. Well, at least it wasn't used as a verb, or... god help us... past participle.

it's an adjective. A quality, not an entity in and of itself. referring to people by one of their qualities is dehumanizing - like referring to black people as "the blacks"

Article was about an obvious transgender, and the article made it blatantly so. Even reading the header would have told you that it was a MtF transgender. Fuck, the TOPIC TITLE made it clear that it was talking about a post-op MtF transgender.

Cause everything right of Marx is becoming alt right since leftists(not liberals) historically just censor arguments opposed to debating them.

no one is claiming that most Democrats are alt-right

no one is claiming that Bernie Sanders is alt-right

no one is claiming that Hillary Clinton is alt-right
