Folks on the left crying that every millionaire inherited it is like when fat people say that their obesity is "genetic." Might make you feel better to say it, but it's still delusional and doesn't justify your underachievement.

Definitely. Even though I've gotten laid several times directly because of Facebook, I'd still be fine if it and all social media went away.

I don't think most of the names were ever mentioned in the movies. As kids, people knew them from the toys. Even Boba Fett's name was never said in ESB (Vader just calls him bounty hunter), but everyone knew who he was before RotJ.

The remake went way too far overboard with Freddie being a pedophile and having child porn. Definitely was not needed to make him an effective villain and really contrasts with the tone of that movie.

The Rev. Al Sharpton raked in $1,046,948 from his own charity last year, according to National Action Networks latest tax filings obtained by The Post.

Sharpton got a $324,000 salary 32% higher than his 2017 pay in addition to a $159,596 bonus and $563,352 in other compensation.

The Harlem-based nonprofit which Sharpton controls as president and CEO said the extra cash was to make up for the years from 2004 to 2017 when he didnt get his full pay.

NAN said it hired an executive compensation firm that determined the good reverend was owed $1.252 million but he was generously willing to take $500,000 less.

Sharpton and the nonprofits board also agreed he has now been fully compensated for all the years he was underpaid and received no bonus, the NAN statement said.

The sharp-dressing, silver-tongued preacher defended the windfall before taking the stage for his weekly rally at NANs House of Justice in Harlem, an event where attendees throw cash in the collection bucket at the reverends behest.

Fifteen years, you are talking about since 2004 when I came back after running for president, he said. For anybody else it would be laughable.

He said he also deserved the 2018 raise.

Its a six-day-a-week job and several hours a day and when [the compensation firm] compared it to other companies, other non profits, thats the salary that they would get, he said

Hope the donors think it's money well spent.

Hillary is a moderate who got suckered into playing the identity politics game due to completely incompetent campaign management. Trump took advantage of this and won the rust belt white voters, which was the difference. All Biden needs to do to win is not alienate blue collar white people in the mid-west and he'll win. And luckily for the Dems, he connects very well with that group.

Idk, this whole "everything or nothing" approach to politics doesn't seem to be panning out very well for Trump.

He's the president and has spent three years filling the court with right-wingers who will be there for decades to come, a fact that will assuredly stonewall progressive policy down the road. Trump won.

And he's going to win again if people ignore Obama's advice here. The average Democratic voter -- which is still largely baby boomers -- will vote Republican before they vote for a socialist. And millennials and folks who like socialism are way too unreliable to vote in large enough blocks to count on.

Shitty troll comment that doesn't reflect what the article says.

This is ridiculous, but it's clear from the article that it wasn't done maliciously. No one is making excuses for it, and the point of the audit was to find problems like this and fix them.

I mean, Pam totally gets a pass for cheating on her fiancee, and Jim never really gets judged for blatantly hitting on and kissing a woman who's engaged. The show was pretty lax on its judgment for infidelity.

If you are born a gender and you die, and they find your bones hundreds of years later and test the DNA, you're going to be test as the gender you were born as. So you can identify how you want but in the end it still doesn't matter. Kind of the cruel joke on the trans community.

That is honestly a good point, I think you're the first to ever say that on CE.

Some may end up taking offense to that though (even though you're not trying to be offensive).

It's a fucking stupid point. They'd just say the body's sex was female. Nothing to do with their gender identity.

They'd say "this person was a man or a woman," actually. And that would be based solely on their biological sex at birth. That's exactly what we do now in Anthropology. No one gives a shit if pre-historic people were confused about their gender when scientists are classifying them.

How do you react?
What do you think would happen?

Probably nothing would change. Humans existed for tens of thousands of years without laws against murder. The deterrent is 1) retaliation, and 2) knowing that you'll basically be an outcast from society if you do it.

It's only left-wing thinking that we need a strong government to control people's morals.

I don't pre-order games for that reason, but I don't hate it given the complexity of a lot of modern games.

What I have no tolerance for is shit like "paid Alpha" releases, where the game isn't even finished (and sometimes never is), but the devs charge you money to be QA testers for them.
