I'd assume the subtext is "You could be unemployed."
Yuuuup.
Yay bon!!
Once again, I had a painless public transit commute home through a storm. Sweet!
You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Sounds kind of AA-ish to me.

Is there an easy (ie free) way to find out how big a tax hit I should anticipate for the big lease payment that is inbound? And how much mineral royalties are taxed?
I don't know how complicated it is, but I'm pretty sure it's free to fill out your own 1040 on the IRS website. If you have to estimate some things, at least you can get a sense?

I'd assume the workplace was run by evangelical Christians.
Or by new age yoga types.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Be here, Be now, Be Grateful!
Stop calling me Grateful.

it is painfully tone deaf, I cannot even.
The dept. where I used to work did really low on the employee survey on employees morale and them feeling their work was connected to the big picture. So they organized a dog and pony show to tell everyone how valued they were and how they fit into the business plan. At the end, the Big Boss got up and said, "Working at the Dept. of X should be like pissing yourself while wearing a dark suit. No one may notice, but you'll get a warm feeling." And that little anecdote told everyone exactly how little he cared about employee morale.

A friend of mine who is an urban planner wrote a fascinating analysis of the Creation Museum's business model [link] and based on that, it seems to me like they're well aware of the problems he lays out.
I'm disappointed in Bill Nye for agreeing to the debate - does he really think he's doing anything other than selling tickets to the Creation Museum to skeptics?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
does he really think he's doing anything other than selling tickets to the Creation Museum to skeptics?
And fangirls.
But no, right now I'm in the camp of The Creation Museum Will Not Get My Money, Even For Bill Nye.
