    @axtremus said in Hours Worked: Many more “exempt” workers are paid “salaries” rather than hourly wages. Then you have “gig workers” and freelancers paid by the task rather than by the hour.

    @copper said in Oz locks down: It depends on your goal. If you want zero virus transmissions. Shut down your country. Close all businesses. Put everyone out of work.

There are ethical and environmental considerations here beyond our selfish fixation on humans.

    That was great, thanks! The evocative music made me want to cry. You got a little glimpse into what a ginormous production that movie was. Was that Bette Davis in the car with Vivien Leigh?

    Is he reacting to the composer or maybe to familiarity? There could be a lot of reasons, it doesn't seem like just Bach v Beethoven

    Remember the good old days, like in 2001, when Maher was cancelled because of his comments about the 9/11 hijackers?

    @george-k said in Joe on Crack: @89th and just now you say "Wow?" Would this video have changed your vote last year? Trump advocating for sexual assault didn't change many of his supporters, so whatever.
