You work at IBM or something? Who even still uses VHDL?

Not for the ridiculous price he’s trying to sell it for.

It’s just the broad description of the gender roles/hierarchy present in our society. Being aware of them and how they negatively impact gender interaction seems fairly useful to me. Usually it’s helpful to understand the current structure of something and how that’s causing problems to make any meaningful and positive changes.

Ok, let me rephrase. You aren’t going to accept that talking about the patriarchy is anything other than feminist and centering women.

He’s not going to accept the concept of patriarchy as anything other than a feminist idea that centers women.

Are people this shitty to women when they express sadness?

Pointing out shitty behavior is systemic doesn’t absolve the person of their responsibility for that behavior. It helps illustrate the issue is systemic and not just some crazy one off occurrence. It also gives an angle of attack on solutions to the systemic problem.

The patriarchy is just as much a men’s lib issue as it is a feminist issue. The gender roles and hierarchy harms men. Women being shitty to a guy for expressing emotion is an example of just that.

Women thinking men are icky when they express emotions is because they’re taught from a very young age that expressing emotions is feminine and feminine, especially feminine men, is bad. This wasn’t a reach to blame on the patriarchy at all.

The patriarchy isn’t “men are harming people all by themselves.” It’s the gender roles and gender hierarchy that both men and women perpetuate.

Yeah, I think the premise is actually “What did people say 20 years ago that they don’t now.”

Oh. You just don’t understand America. Yeah, no, the pharmacy is a 10 minute drive from the doctor’s office. And that seems decently close.

Unless your doctor is in a hospital type setting; then there’s probably a pharmacy on site.

I love the drive through when my sick toddler has fallen asleep in the car on the way from the doctor’s to the pharmacy.

So you never make plans you aren’t happy to do alone just to make your loved one’s day? Like I’m not crazy about X band, but my husband loves them, so getting tickets and taking him is something I do for him. But I’d never go to that alone.

EIT is a refundable tax credit. Meaning if your total tax burden is less than the credit, federal government will pay you the difference. A part of the child tax credit is the same.

It seems like networking would be even more important for you. You’d have people who could vouch for you: “Yeah they’re kind of weird in an interview, but they do amazing work.”

It would be pretty crappy to never give a description of a painting to a blind person though. Like could you imagine if we never described the Mona Lisa to a blind person and they just to guess what it was a picture of.

I’m going to guess that if you include Mexico, pretty much every state has the same flag. Whereas you don’t have the problem by including Canada.

Texas is gerrymandered to hell which means their reps and state legislature are very Republican. But it’s purple enough people recently frequently hope they can flip a Senate seat there.

No. The outcome is Trump is president.

That isn’t an outcome.

What’s the other outcome of the US election?
