That stuff isn’t necessary, but a low tolerance for it significantly restricts your dating pool. It’s like saying you aren’t going to jump through a lot of hoops to get a job – there are employers out there who don’t require that, especially if you’re highly desirable, but it does make things harder.
An example is the patriarchal expectation for men to be the first one to express interest, and to generally take the initiative to move the ball forward early in the relationship. You can opt out of that, but for most guys that would mean dating almost no one. This isn’t even a conscious “game” women play, it’s a social convention, so “I wouldn’t want to date someone who does that anyway” would be throwing out the baby with the bathwater.
“Disney has decided to waive its right to arbitration” means “we will 100% try this bullshit again, but one bad media wave costs more than this settlement ever could.”
A tiny incursion into Russia from Ukraine gets you a modest drive from Moscow?
Huh, wonder why Russia took issue with the U.S. installing a puppet government next door
You should have an explicit option to refuse war crimes, but then it should turn into something like a Hugh Thompson simulator.
CW war crimes
When news of the massacre publicly broke, Thompson repeated his account to then-Colonel William Wilson[6]: 222–235 and then-Lieutenant General William Peers during their official Pentagon investigations.[15] In late-1969, Thompson was summoned to Washington, DC to appear before a special closed hearing of the House Armed Services Committee. There, he was sharply criticized by congressmen, in particular Chairman Mendel Rivers (D-S.C.), who were anxious to play down allegations of a massacre by American troops.[6]: 290–291 Rivers publicly stated that he felt Thompson was the only soldier at Mỹ Lai who should be punished (for turning his weapons on fellow American troops) and unsuccessfully attempted to have him court-martialed.[5]
Thompson was vilified by many Americans for his testimony against United States Army personnel. He recounted in a CBS 60 Minutes television program in 2004, “I’d received death threats over the phone…Dead animals on your porch, mutilated animals on your porch some mornings when you get up.”[16][7]
That would total a little under 46 thousand dollars per unit.
It does seem low, but not out of the realm of possibility:
Another way to factor the cost of an apartment building is by unit. The average cost runs from $65,000 to $86,000 per unit. Keep in mind that the numbers in this scenario don’t include labor costs or site improvements.
Labor adds a ton, obviously, but that figure also seems to include some items a government construction project could minimize (permitting costs), and it’s an estimate of an individual project, not a statewide effort to build thousands of units. There would likely be some economies of scale.
It would be interesting to see how they came up with that figure.
