Sometimes I wonder if all of this "wage gap" conversation is addressing the problem the wrong way around.
Instead of complaining about statistics about a certain demographic (gender, race, hand-dominance, &c.) getting paid less than another — whether or not the stat is true — why not focus on encouraging businesses to pay their employees justly?
Seeing @MrsShill posting nice springtime outdoor photos reminded me to post a picture of our family walk last Sunday.
Trying out a website that automatically deletes your tweets (to see if it’s any different that the one I already use for Twitter and Mastodon).
It doesn’t let you use the service if you’ve liked too many tweets from “prominent racists, misogynists, antisemites, homophobes, neo-Nazis, and other fascists” because apparently that means you are one.
My parents started a shared text document detailing the key family events that have happened since they married >30 years ago. It is now nearly 5000 words long. Part of me thinks this is a great idea and I want to make my own for my own life/family, but the other part of me wonders… is there a better way to do this?
I think my eight-year-old has sent more letters than Jae's assistant.
She has multiple friends whom she sees less-than-monthly and they converse via mail. (One even instituted a simple code so her older siblings can't read her mail!)
She also has an analog wristwatch and can respond faster when asked what time it is than Siri.
@adam @Johncdvorak this is from a Catholic canon lawyer (i.e. trained in the interpretation of Church law) who now runs an independent Catholic news-analysis site with another lawyer.
A broader point is that the precision of language is very important for the Catholic Church. It's part of why Latin is used for a lot of official matters.
The priest should have known better, and I think root of the issue might be an English-as-a-2nd-language thing.
