I mean, he might be an asshole, sure, but if those publications made boatloads of cash, I'm pretty fucking sure he wouldn't give a single fuck what those clowns write.
The issue wasn't whether or not Deadspin is making money. It is. They're an investment firm, so what they're looking for is growth. They wanted to double, triple, quadruple the readership. They thought they could do that just by increasing their sports output. And with a staff of only ten full-time staff writers, you do that by telling them to quit writing about the other stuff.

There’s also census data on this

so, looking for some research help here.

there are plenty of articles on brave current parents despite taboo saying they regret having children.

I’d like some hard numbers of any kind really, but especially if anyone can find anything on older/retired/people who have had kids that are now adults who definitively regret it.

I am early 30s and my wife is 35. We are pretty much at Dinks for life stage.

there are many benefits and nearly in a daily basis they surprise me. I notice my parent colleagues even in higher income brackets drive shitty cars (possibly, I’m in sales so it is at times hard to say, I tried to move into a different position at work that I would have considered a promotion but it was like a 30k salary drop lol).

Just this week I came back from a 2 week Europe trip and virtually every parent, even if they are in their late 50s/60s have never been to Europe, and then lots of things that I would consider a pretty trivial expense are considered expensive, etc.

I constantly hear it’s absolutely worth it to have kids but is that just an empty justification?

Same friend coworker has expressed jealously and has said the first one was an accident. My sisters kid was an accident as well. I sometimes wonder how many kids are accidents and then people just go along with it.

Is there really something so satisfying to raising children? Like what percent is truly no regrets? Because by the same argument people seem pretty happy not having them.

I'm wondering what to do in this situation - I'm not at all familiar with the privacy/legal points around this.

I'm signing up for a private life insurance policy. I had previously had insurance through my employer.

My financial advisor is setting it up for me and I got an email with the following statement:

"The insurance carrier has requested the following information about your family. If any family members has a medical condition such as heart or kidney disease, stroke, diabetes, cancer, melanoma suicide, Huntington’s Disease
Sickle Cell Disease or Familial Adenomatous Polyposis. They are asking for the age the condition was diagnosed. They also want current ages if living or dates of death."

Then there's a chart with the following columns:
Medical Conditions | Age at Onset/Event | Age if Living | Cause of Death | Age of Death

They are asking about immediately family - Mother, Father, Brother, Sister.

I'm unsure what to say here - do I legally need to be completely honest? I'm worried that they won't cover me.
My father was diagnosed with Parkinsons 2 years ago at the age of 62.
My mother has had some minor heart conditions for the past 10 years or so-but I attribute that to her high stress/anxiety levels.
Worried about being honest with his life insurance company, tells ResetERA.com a forum full of doxxers.

Don’t lie to them but you should find out if you have privacy protections and if the request is mandatory for the contract.

I think it’s invasive and predatory and only exists to save or make the insurance company money - and is a stark reminder of why a parasitic middle man is an outrageous tax on the population that didn’t need to exist. It’s free money to an artificial and hypothetically unnecessary industry.

Instead, 32-year-old Tommy Lee Jenkins had been talking to a Winnebago County Sheriff's deputy working with the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, a statement from the US Attorney's Office in the Eastern District of Wisconsin said.

He is charged with using a computer to attempt to persuade, induce or entice a minor to engage in unlawful sexual activity, the office said, and faces 10 years to life in prison if convicted.
So he never actually attempted to persuade, induce or entice a minor? Case dismissed.

Quote
The law enforcement officer was posing as a girl named "Kylee" who lived in Neenah, Wisconsin, with her mother, the attorney's office said.

Jenkins accepted a friend request from Kylee's profile and soon began engaging in sexual conversations with her, asking her if she's had sex and requesting explicit pictures, a criminal complaint alleges.

In early October, Jenkins began asking the girl if she wanted him to come to Wisconsin. When she said yes, he later told her he had begun walking from Whitestown, Indiana, to where she was.

"I will tell you when i get to neenah 108 hours by walking," he said, according to the complaint.

Throughout his journey, Jenkins sent pictures of areas he passed, including photos of exit signs and selfies, the complaint said.

On October 10, he said he had made it to the state and that someone had bought him a bus ticket to get to the girl's town.

Authorities arrested Jenkins when he arrived, the attorney's office said.

The alt-right was partly made up by gutter oil masturbator Cernovich because the 'right' was considered 60 y/o conservatives out of touch with young people.
What was first coined as 'new right' was changed to 'alt-right' a more hip and inclusive group of people including members of the LGTBQ+ community and the famous 'the blacks'.
They needed an identity that set them apart from the regular Republican/conservative parties and candidates they were also against.

Of course that didn't last long because the alt-right soon became a rallying cry for actual fascists and racists who joined with the alt-right ranks.
So they dropped their 'alt-right' label and instead considered themselves "Independents" also denouncing Trump for joining up with the GOP and implementing their policies.
They sorta underestimated their connection to their audience, who mainly followed them because they supported Trump.
Next to that they vastly underestimated their clout within Trump World itself. Not getting any White House jobs or even interviews.
Only those alt-right or not who were already in the Trump grift verse anyway (like Gorka, Bannon, Miller) got cozy positions.

The rest lost everything or rebranded themselves as self-help guru's.

I’m unsure what this has to do with his transphobic remarks though? As an initial response to the story at least.

Trans people are normal cool people too, that can also be weird and insecure at times. I’d hope we’d get the same buff in charisma for having those attributes in negotiations?

e: Like, I trust you know this so it just seems like such an odd response to someone espousing some disgusting shit to say “oh but look at his insta, such a cool guy”.

Eh; I get it.   
Everyone gets it. The point is that the desire to erase ones "dead name" does not and should not ever grant authority to censor information to an outside party. It should never be forbidden to keep up with name changes like Chelsea Von Valkenberg to the vastly inferior Zoe Tiberius Quinn. Or to use historical context like the Jenner example when listing 1976 Olympic medalists. It is however easy enough to update or write pieces to mention that it was Brianna Wu who was escorted from her college newspaper for having a racist meltdown threatening violence within a few years from her time when she interned for Republican Senator Trent Lott and met Waco perpetrator Janet Reno just as is done with any woman who changes her name upon marriage.

Easy enough, despite what incelsiorlef wishes to present it as.

Arguments can be made about how Michael Scott is supposed to highlight how unlikable and unfunny these kinds of people are... but at a certain point making these jokes is still making these jokes and the punchline only seems to be punching down

Kevin has almost no redeemable scenes to him

The joke is that he is fat and has learning disabilities and somehow makes it as an accountant

Its just not a show for me anymore
:jeanluc

also why is this in a SNL thread?
I miss the Wiig/ Hader years

Haven't watched much since they left

That being said comedy in general has always been very unfriendly to LGBT... especially transfolk

Rewatched Office and the amount of anti lgbt and racism stuff was stomach turning... ugh

Ive grown more and more disgusted by comedy in general and this is just another reason why Im checking out

Not gonna leave without saying fuck Che tho

I’ve been watching SNL pretty regularly since 2009. That joke was actually the first time I’ve seen the crowd react like that. They were shocked and in silence. It was so weird to hear them tell that joke. Regardless of your stance on that type of joke, it was an odd choice for SNL.

Edit:



Lmao they took out the audience reaction. Watch at 0:40... Notice how quick it jumps to Colin Jost after Che makes the joke.

It actually makes more sense now that I've seen it. It's not random "trans woman" like the thread is speculating, the "getting people to like Trump" part plays a role in the reference to Jenner.

SNL cuts out parts from their uploads all the time, especially joke bombs, because it wrecks the pacing. Weekend Update just is and always will be the most likely place for blatant joke bombs in the show that the cast can actually address.

The fuck? This dude is laughing at his own unfunny “jokes.” And the audience laughter is so awkward — like they’re flipping on/off a ‘LAUGH NOW’ sign with a switch or it’s straight up fake. And SNL hasn’t been funny for a long time so I guess they’re going for shock value to get viewers now.

Fuck everyone involved in this trash.
Quote
That was in poor taste, but what gets me most is that these jokes aren't written in a vacuum. I've seen and read about (from Tina Fey's book and videos) the behind the scenes machinations of SNL. They probably sat at a table with various other writers and performers developing this joke. Maybe someone raised objections, maybe they didn't, but that should have never made it on the air unless Che and Jost were purposefully looking to dredge up controversy.
Quote
Che actually comes off as racist there. And infinitely childish.

I rarely call for people's jobs and whatnot, but the more I read up on Che, the more I think it would be in SNL's best interest to go ahead and sever those ties.
He's only been on the show for seven years and been co-head writer of the entire show for two. Might as well take issue with Lorne Michaels.

It actually makes more sense now that I've seen it. It's not random "trans woman" like the thread is speculating, the "getting people to like Trump" part plays a role in the reference to Jenner.

SNL cuts out parts from their uploads all the time, especially joke bombs, because it wrecks the pacing. Weekend Update just is and always will be the most likely place for blatant joke bombs in the show that the cast can actually address.

They uploaded it and then took it out. I watched it on Sunday. And it may happen but I honestly can’t remember another time where that happened.

Happens to Pete Davidson quite often for obvious reasons.

I remember an instance where he got groans and he protested that "it killed in rehearsals!" that they cut because of the reference to how it's not always live which is one of Lorne's triggers.

Also RE thread is stupid for multiple reasons:

1. Do they really think Che writes every joke he says? Che/Jost often debate (jokingly) about who has to say the jokes that people will get offended by

2. There’s nothing wrong with the AOC joke

3. It’s deadnaming to call someone by a name in reference to a time before they transitioned? That’s fucking dumb.

Wouldn't be surprised if the white guy from Staten Island (aka Trump supporter) setup the black guy from a Nazi comedy group (aka SNL).

Its different in a way I think. You have people who will watch the video on SNL and get misinformed on why people are upset. I could be wrong but I distinctly remember the joke going further and the audience being confused. People will watch the video and blame PC culture.

Well, they'd be accurate. PC culture aka Master Race Theory aka Nazism is the reason for Michael Che's violence against women.

EVERY SINGLE PERSON who doesn't follow the REEE Rule of Law EXACTLY as it's been written is a bigot or a Nazi or an alt-right Gator or all of the above. Being forgiven or showing remorse for something said or did? FUCK YOU!

The fact most of these people have this mindset and are over 30 is fucking sad.

I don’t think Che should be canceled, I just think the joke was given to the wrong audience.

yikes

but also

But, says Jenner, “I had a life for 65 years. OK?” Besides which, “I liked Bruce. He was a good person. He did a lot in his life. Oh, ‘he didn’t even exist’. Yes he did exist! He worked his butt off. He won the [Olympic] Games. He raised amazing kids. He did a lot of very, very good things and it’s not like I just want to throw that away.”


 The book, which was written with Buzz Bissinger, a Pulitzer prize-winner and the journalist who did the original Vanity Fair interview, takes a more nuanced approach to Jenner’s relationship with the person she calls “little old Bruce”.


Caitlyn Jenner?

More like Yikeslyn Jennner.


Imagine stanning for a nazi who goes on Fox with tucker.

“B****” is her word. She reclaimed it. You can’t use it as a cisgender person.

Do not erase the monumental achievement of the always female Caitlyn Jenner winning Gold and setting a would record score in the men's decathlon at the 1976 Montreal Olympics.
