I didn't have any interest in battle royale games, but then I started playing Apex Legends and I heard later on that it's one of em. Decent time.

If Ian Curtis hadn't killed himself New Order would never have released such a sunny and beautiful song as this so if you ever feel that those you care about will be happier without you in their lives you might actually be right.

Yeah clearly the rest of the band were capable and willing of gloing somewhere besides miserable-ism.

Unpopular opinion: It's unrealistic for any real man to say he's not attracted to Chris Colfer.

I feel like child labor wouldn't be such a bad thing to bring back with the proper regulations.

I feel like it could serve multiple purposes. I'm not talking about factory work or anything extreme like that but certain skilled trades/tech oriented jobs and maybe some basic manual labor where it's not too strenuous or dangerous for a kid.

When I was like 11 my step dad used to take me on side jobs he did as an electrician.. he would have me run cables and **** under houses... Payed me $15 an hour which was a **** load of money to me at that age. I fat preferred doing that to bagging groceries at some grocery store for $7.25 an hour when I was 14.

Like most things, the pieces of sh*t of this world will take every inch they can and exploit as much as they can.

Regulation can have its pros and cons but it's good for some things. I think if I were to meet you in the middle of that one I'd say consent of a parent, the child, employer, plus oversight by an agency could work.

Unless you moved out of america, child labour laws are already pretty lax.

When I was growing up you couldn't legally her a job till 14 and even then you could only work very specific jobs like bagging groceries on the weekends... Until you were 16.
