If I was a Catholic I might think he was likely to die and wake up in one.

Um, who said anything about being undemonstrative? I can do the Dutch triple kiss with the best of them. But I know being sick over the holidays sucks (because I usually am) and I wasnāt going to be a germ carrier any more than I had to be.

OK, misunderstood, deleted.
Not all dinosaures were bad.
Letās criticize Mudoch for many, many things but not for his age. If we are lucky enough to stay alive weāll all be old, but we wonāt all end up like POS Murdoch.

Indeed, the ones in my garden are quite attractive, and that one shown the other day - that looked like a cross between a goose and a penguin, with paddle arms - looked quite interesting.
However, I do think that Murdoch can and should be criticised for his holding onto power running his empire and trying to drag the West into his right wing dystopia. As T S Eliot remarked when he was younger than I am now, āDo not tell me of the wisdom of old men, tell me rather of their folly.ā He shouldnāt be in charge of anything bigger than the membership list of his local golf club. Gerontocracy is a terrible form of government.

I think Mubarakās Egypt, Saudi Arabia, India, Cuba, Berlusconi Italy and Trump US kind of make my point for me.

Well, Canada donāt even make the chart cuz our median age are:
The median age is higher for women (41.0 years) than for men (39.0 years)
And JT is 45. (Jagmeet Singh is 38) - go go GenX politicians taking over! 
And TJ Miller is gone! (one of the accusations against him has him spiking someones drink and the bartender seeing it!)

This is one of the things that was driving me nuts in that long derailed thread TOP: all the āwell, itās one accuser, and he and his wife say sheās a crazy liar, soā¦ā and blowing past the point that there were witnesses. He wasnāt fired on a single, uninvestigated accusation. A) Itās more than one incident, and b) it was investigated and corroborating evidence was found.
Donāt they get it, that if itās reached the firing stage, especially of a well-connected white guy, there is a shit-ton of evidence, to fend off the lawsuits?

There was a period in the 00s when myself and every friend I knew, male and female, got dosed at a bar.
I have nooooooo patience, sympathy or mercy where this issue stands.
Its beyond terrifying to wake up the next day and a gap in your memory like that, so fuck that guy.

In her defense, she probably doesnāt have any. /s
Your post is so on the mark. That whole company is rotten to the core. If some science fiction show had used it as the āevil corporationā antagonist, it would have been laughed off TV as being too āover the top.ā Truth is worse than fiction.

Holy fucksocks, thatās awful; Iām so sorry.
Iāve been on the receiving end of date rape once, and countless instances of sexual harassment, but Iāve never been drugged, thank Dumbledore.
I remember a sorority sister of mine freaking the fuck out in undergrad when she heard about roofies, and though her reaction was slightly over the top, I took her concern to heart; I never leave my drink unattended, and I donāt allow anyone I donāt trust implicitly to get a drink for me.

This is a lesson a whole lot of people I know have had to learn in one way or another, that if you lie down with snakes, you will get bitten. Sure she knew the company was run by an asshole, but she thought, āItās sportsball. Itās not about money. Iām protected.ā

Thereās also a major push at rehabilitating Franken coming from LibTwitter today.
I hope Iām wrong, but it looks like the momentum is shifting back towards Team Evil. The initial shock has faded, and theyāre trying to quietly slither back to business as usual.
