IANAL, but I feel like if the heirs to an estate cared enough about the deceased's Steam account enough to get the court involved, Steam wouldn't have a leg to stand on. But that's probably what it would take to get them to do the right thing.

    Yeah, I want to see the TST's tenets up there next to the commandments. That ought to stimulate some interesting discussions.

    For those not familiar,

    One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.

    The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.

    One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.

    The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own.

    Beliefs should conform to one's best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one's beliefs.

    People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one's best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused.

    Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.

    I'm absolutely calling BS. I've never seen such a thing and wagering that you are just confused about what lanes can do what (or you're just making shit up). There are several roundabouts near me where an inside lane can turn out or go straight, but in all of those cases all lanes further out are required to turn out. The people that design traffic patterns aren't idiots, but there's no shortage of idiot drivers that can't follow even the simplest patterns.

    If you want to insist, all you need to do is link to such an intersection in google maps so I can look at the aerial view. I'm honestly curious how they would paint the traffic lanes to indicate what you're describing.

    The sad part about this is that The Girl Scouts has always been an amazing organization that's done great things for girls and society, but didn't get all of the favorable treatment that the boys did from the government. Now their playing field is going to be even more unlevel.

    How many of those 113,000 are just reporters waiting for Drumph's next manufactured controversy to report on? Can they please just stop regurgitating every stupid thing he spouts?
