It depends on where you are and whether you join a union or not. Labor laws vary by state and by country. Paid lunches and breaks may or may not be part of your employment contract.

I agree on the spoilers thing. Like, remember that bombshell someone dropped four episodes ago and then they never addressed? And that character from last season that left to go investigate on their own?

Gaslight. Obstruct. Project.

The Speaker said that additional funding can wait until after the election. Telling an obvious lie, and acting like you're the crazy one for doubting him. Gaslight.

The Speaker refused to schedule a vote that would have easily passed both houses and been signed into law. Obstruct.

Conservatives will blame Democrats for the lack of funds they created. Project.

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

I was far too young to read Animal Farm. I thought it was going to be like Charlotte's Web. I did not have any of the historical or political context for the metaphor. It just made me angry.

Not really. Kyle travelled from Illinois to Wisconsin with his rifle in order to kill two people. He did not travel through Pennsylvania, so this law wouldn't have applied to him.

They just don't like people playing their games in ways that don't generate profit.

“Tonight, Missouri lynched another innocent Black man,” NAACP President Derrick Johnson said in a statement.

I heard someone say this in a video recipe, followed by way more cheese than you should eat at once. It occurred to me that the phrase means ample, not nutritious.

Has this ever happened to you? There's a fly in the house, buzzing around you, so you go to the cabinet to get the swatter. But as soon as you start wielding it, the little bastard disappears. You set it down, and now he's back, taunting you.

Ok so obviously flies don't taunt, but do they have the capacity to recognize, even instinctually, that I'm holding a deadly weapon?
