Its better to not vote at all, that will solve it! You’re a fucking child, asshole.

See i can use personal attacks too, and they do fuck all for moving things forward, you idiot. I’m sure there will be loads of people swayed by our eloquent words…

I didn’t see what car this was. Did you mention it, and I just missed it?

Maybe, but third party presidential, when there is no legislators is never going to happen, never going to be elected, and never get any bills passed. Aiming for the white house as the first stop is just silly.

GUARDS! Bring me the forms i need to fill out to have this man taken away!

Well you go ahead and find those treaties for me, since I’ve never gotten a result back from a search. And I’d like to believe but have no proof of that.

Well the reason is that there are state laws against outside observers, and no treaty giving any foreign government the ability to monitor. So they’re just enforcing the laws, as they’re supposed to.

Mind you I’m not saying the UN or any other nation is going to interfere, but seems really important to follow laws around voting to make sure the attitude of enforcement isn’t lax.

Early on Russia said it would treat any foreigner fighting for Ukraine as a mercenary, and criminally punish them. Doesn’t matter that they sign with the Ukrainian government to fully be in the Ukrainian military. Just more rank hypocrisy, as they pull soldiers from all over Africa, India and China. Along with Americans caught in statutory rape charges that happened to flee before trial.

Looks tasty, wonder if I’ll ever get around to making it.

And I thought my cat’s purr was loud. Is quiet by comparison.

What I meant by cents on the dollar is usually, they broke rules, make $100 billion from it (imaginary scenario), and then the settlement from that wrong doing sees them pay out $2 billion to the affected customers that joined the class. It may be due to the fact that I’ve not paid attention to too many class action suits, but it seems like the settlement never comes close to the harm they caused.

I can tell you that I have arbitration on going, and it’s been well over a year that it has been happening. To assume that the arbitration wraps up in a month, when you’ve got lawyers involved is non-sense. I don’t believe arbitrators are in anyone’s pocket either. The arbitrators aren’t in-house council for Valve, they are a company Valve has contracted with, and they’re going to be neutral, and rule based on law, not who’s paying. As a lot of arbitration rules state that if you take the case to arbitration and lose, the one that is ruled against pays for the cost of the arbitration. Based on the “mate’s rates”, I’m guessing you’re UK based. I don’t know that legal system, so can’t say how fee structures work. But a great deal of lawyers that are suing on behalf of you, in the US, take a percentage of the settlement. So the biggest cost is all to the person being sued, as they do pay the lawyers by the hour instead of a cut of the ruling.

I don’t think Valve is changing their rules to screw customers, I think they’re doing it because they’ve found separating each case into a different arbitration claim is too expensive. And it would have been better for them all to be in one group. I believe Valve is the best game distributor, as it turns out. But if people with law degrees think they’ve broken rules, I’m all for punishing rule-breaking. In this particular scenario, it seems like it might slightly improve things for consumers, and greatly benefit small studios.

If you push everybody into a class action, it will be cheaper. Have you ever gotten more than a cent on the dollar from a class action settlement(unless you’re the class representative)? Sure the seem like the settlements are a lot of money, but if you can get the class action settled with very few claimants, no one will be able to sue over that particular issue again, so it puts it behind the company. Instead of being dogged by individuals for however long.

My family also ended up with a clipped ear cat. She came up to us one night, and was friendly, then for the next two weeks she showed up everyday we got home from work. So, now she’s our inside cat, and we all love her, she is so friendly to everyone. Even followed an AC tech around the house trying to get love from him too. One of the best cats I’ve ever had.

Look at your boss and be angry, not the customers. You should not be in a tipped position as a cook.

I’m just glad my kids will never have to talk to Gaetz, sounds horrifying.

It’s nobody’s business but the Turks!

Sure wish they were quiet enough to sleep through.

Love how all these sucker’s hold their heart over their gut, instead of their heart. Sure I’m speculating that it’s an anthem, but why else would you take your hat off.

You won’t sell at all if it doesn’t meet your minimum cash in pocket amount.

This feels like a bad use for this meme. Or maybe my brain isn’t making a necessary connection somewhere.
