Slashdot videos: Now with more Slashdot!

the stock market, actually, makes a shit litmus test for the health of the economy anymore. At least in a vacuum. Why? Because the entire market is overvalued thanks to a supply gap of securities created by 401k plans. The government has blessed the market as *the* retirement savings vehicle of the middle class, and now there aren't enough securities to meet the demand that this has created.

Your claim that this is not an isolated event is also an extraordinary claim that requires extraordinary evidence. But then everyone *wants* to believe gay-bashing is an epidemic because it fits the narrative being pushed...so no one will ever ask.

See? I even have to suffer oppression from what are, ostensibly, my own people.

Being insanely ugly is preventing me from getting married despite the fact that I'm so inclined. Why does nobody care when I came out and admitted that I'm an ogre?

So did David Koresh. So maybe we have to take some bits of our $.99 theology fries with some salt.

Courage now defines a fucking millionaire saying something that most people already knew. If you watered down the definition of courage any further....I'd be courageous for getting out of bed this morning.

pedantry really isn't helping your case, here.

No, liberals did. And your final sentence is indicative of just the oppression I've been first to suffer for being born this way.

So tolerant...

Opportunity, sure. Not outcome.

Are you implying that this, and only this, law should be the shining example of something a government does that simply CANNOT be abused to provide assistance to a group it wasn't expressly intended to provide assistance to?

At least in the sphere of watches, apples crap will be on the low end of price.

I have been single the entire time I have been at my current employer. The only personal item I have at my desk is a slinky. My company can't tell whether I'm gay or straight unless I tell them.

what if said benefits and protections also aren't a right, but are an incentive to procreate?
Like giving oil companies a break on income tax so they'll hire people.

as a cisgender (god I hate that this term even exists), middle class, right handed, white male I've suffered more bigotry and intolerance over the last 20 years than any homosexual...and from the exact people who's stake-in-claim in politics is purpotedly omnitolerance.
