Same. My Sennheiser Momentum 2s over ears are god damn workhorses and I'm very abusive. And the sound is fantastic.

This person is just a dumb troll, I've seen and reported them on other posts. Everyone ignore please.

Marijuana stays in people's systems for weeks. I don't think that never smoking pot should be a requirement of employment.

I don't smoke pot. I care about people's liberty. And you're being a prick.

That's not relevant to pre-employment testing being literally useless for the vast majority of jobs

Post accident is fine because the question there is "were you actively impaired while working" which is a valid concern. What is pre-employment testing supposed to show that's relevant to the vast majority of jobs though? "Sometimes this person uses recreational drugs." Ok, and what? Are they coming to work impaired? If not, then outside of the medical field and airline pilots, who cares?

Why on earth should a corporation be allowed to require a privacy violating urine test as a condition for employment for a desk job? And even for safety critical jobs like medical or pilots, a pre-employment urine test isn't going to catch abuse of the one drug that is the biggest red flag in the entire collection: alcohol.

Which is a problem that pre-employment drug testing does not correct in any way, shape or form.

What makes a state a state is being ratified in Congress. I'm not sure you understand how this works. You don't just get to make a new state because people vote for it.

"Is West Virginia Constitutional?

On the creation of new states, the Constitution is pretty clear. Article IV, Section 3, reads that “no new States shall be formed or erected within the Jurisdiction of any other State … without the Consent of the Legislatures of the States concerned as well as of the Congress.”

Before the Tea Party movement in the Republican party, yes I definitely could have been convinced to vote for a Republican candidate. I was actually intending to vote for John McCain for president because at that time in history, both parties really did still have their crazy branches, but the relatively rational adults who knew how to compromise for the good of the country still ran the show, and I was genuinely concerned that Obama didn't have enough political experience to be president.

Then McCain nominated Sarah Palin for his Vice President. That was such a pandering, cowardly, caving to the will of the utterly ignorant, insane extremists in the Republican party move that I voted for Obama. And then the entire Republican party got so mad that a black guy was president that they collectively lost their whole fucking minds.

Republicans no longer want to govern. They want to break things and stay in power and that's it. That's their entire platform. There's nothing to debate because they literally aren't even trying to DO anything useful. Their entire political position right now is "do the opposite of what Democrats want." They have nothing to vote FOR. People who vote Republican right now are doing so only because they're voting against the bogeymen in their own heads.

I'm all for people staying safe and taking care of themselves, but the problem is moving makes the entire situation worse. Concentrating ourselves into small geographic areas inside cities is what allowed them to gerrymander the shit out of things and get the minority political party locked into outsized political influence.

Every blue voter that leaves a rural area makes the divide worse. So I praise those who are brave enough to stay.

This is so exciting! I can't believe I lived to see this happen.

I mean, Xenk is perfect, knows exactly what the PCs need to know to advance the story, leads them to the correct location, and wins the fight by himself, then walks away lol

Really, go watch it again and it's so obvious you won't believe you didn't catch it first time. (I didn't either)

Xenk the Paladin can hear everything the PCs are saying because he's a DMPC lol. It's pretty subtle, they did a great job with the writing. Go back and watch it again keeping in mind that the DM is playing Xenk
