  • Yeah these companies 100% know what their workforce looks like. I had a family member who was a manager at meat packing plant in the Midwest. He would hire immigrants who would provide a social security number that he knew wasn’t their own. If it came back as invalid, they would come back the next day with a different social security number and he would hire them.

    This was the plant’s policy, though eventually he did get fired for it when they needed a fall guy.

    We drive across the country every summer to visit family. Growing up, my parents used to talk about different routes and which one felt faster. Like “you can get off the interstate and take this county road and shave some time off.” But then they’d argue about if it was worth taking a road with a lower speed limit even if it was less distance.

    Eventually they tried to impart that wisdom to me and would ask “so which route are you taking?” It took years for them to finally grasp that I just go whatever the way the GPS tells me is faster.









  • Lol had to look this up because it’s complicated.

    “Ovulation [when an egg is released from your ovaries ready for fertilization] typically takes place around two weeks after the first day of your last period, and this is when a baby would be conceived. But because you won’t know that you’re pregnant until you’ve missed your next period, approximately two weeks later, you’ll already be four weeks pregnant when you get your positive test result. At that point, you’ll have approximately 36 more weeks to go,” Dr. Celestine says.

    So pregnancies typically last 10 months, but we say 9 months since you don’t even know you’re pregnant until you’re 4 weeks pregnant. But anti-abortion laws still count that 4 weeks.




  • “Adults are free to consume porn, but not at the expense of protecting our children,” Chappaz said in a tweet Tuesday, according to an English language translation. “Asking pornographic sites to verify the age of their users is not about stigmatizing adults, but about protecting our children.”

    These fuckers always throw around the term “protecting our children” when they want to do something shitty. Companies like Pornhub actually have strick controls to actually protect children with their anti-CP policies. By forcing them to adopt these bullshit government controls, it only moves users to less legitimate sites without anti-CP policies.
