Jordan Adams is the Development Director at Electronic Arts (EA) working on the Plants vs. Zombies mobile game franchise. According to reports, EA conducted an internal investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct against Adams over a 2.5 month period.[1][3][4][5] The investigation found that Adams had video called female co-workers and performed lewd acts on himself, sent them pornographic videos, and made explicit references in EA’s Slack conversations.[1][3][5] Despite the findings, EA reportedly closed the investigation, citing that the events occurred outside of work between consenting adults, and that Adams did not repeat the behavior once the investigation began.[1][3][5] However, the victims still had to work with Adams after the investigation concluded.[1][3][5]

This is an article attempting to frame Kurdish settlements in Rojava, whose existence is only possible because US forces in the area stop the Turks and Assad from bombing them, as the US stealing fuel and food. The Kurds are the ones pumping this oil and growing the wheat. The US isn’t robbing Syrians at gunpoint for their wheat. It’s only considered theft because the people eating and using the fuel are ethnically undesirable.
Investigations have found that the Assad regime has carried out the majority of the over 336 confirmed chemical weapons attacks in Syria, with 98% of the total attacks attributed to the regime.[1]
The Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR) has documented 222 chemical weapons attacks in Syria as of November 2023, with 217 of these carried out by Syrian regime forces. These attacks have killed 1,514 individuals, including 1,413 civilians.[2]
The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) has confirmed five separate instances of the Assad regime using chemical weapons, including the April 2018 attack in Douma that killed 43 people.[3]
Human Rights Watch has documented the Syrian government’s “widespread and systematic use of chemical weapons” since at least 2013, despite the government’s pledges to cooperate with OPCW and UN inspectors.[4]
The 2013 Ghouta chemical attack, which killed hundreds, was the deadliest use of chemical weapons since the Iran-Iraq War.[5]
In summary, the overwhelming evidence from multiple independent investigations and organizations confirms that the Assad regime in Syria has repeatedly and systematically used chemical weapons against civilians during the civil war, in clear violation of international law.

I only know she’s not my boss and my role is the same as her.
They’ve been in the role longer than you have, that gives them seniority over you.
I don’t understand why you believe you know my role better than me.
You’ve been purposely vague about your role so I am left to make a best guess.
I wouldn’t do this over email. To be effective, the message has to be said next time she feels entitled to ‘correct’ me.
You should do it over email so there is a written record and no miscommunication. You could even CC your supervisor if you wajt to play hardball.
Your currently strategy is to snap at her the next time she annoys you. Not a good look for a new hire.
Is the end result the same? Sometimes the right process gets better end results. Especially if you’re a new hire, it’s worth considering doing it their way just out of humility.
I feel you believe you are my boss. You are not. Stop telling me how to work. It’s tiring. You have your way of doing things, I’ve got mine, both equally good. Should you have a problem with this, contact the charge or manager. I’m gonna go work now.
This is an extremely aggressive way to speak to someone. It’s a little wild that this is what you came up with trying to be neutral and diplomatic. Genuinely makes me question if you’re understanding this person and your role correctly.
If you’re certain that doing it your way is just as good then I recommend the following message:
Hi [person’s name]! I wanted to thank you for your help getting me situated into this new role at [company name]. I really appreciate the difficulties of integrating a new team member, and I want you to know I’m 100% committed to doing good work together.
My personal experience with projects like these involves a work flow that looks more like [x, y, z], and the clients that I’ve worked for using this process were always happy with the results. The process you showed me where it’s [a, b, c] doesn’t make as much sense to me, perhaps we can schedule some time to go over why it’s more effective doing it [a, b, c] rather than [x, y, z]? Otherwise, just for the sake of completing the project ASAP I would prefer using the way I have more experience with.
Happy to discuss this with you further at anytime and excited about the great things we’ll be making together 😁
That’s a bullet proof corporate email any manager would take a look at and know you’re not the problem.
They only made $1.45 billion last year, just up 56% year-over-year.
They were expecting to make over two billion. Which from the perspective of an American corporation, means they lost half a billion dollars. So the end of year bonuses for the c suites are only half as much as they were anticipating, which from the perspective of American executives is like they lost hundreds of thousands of dollars this year.
So you see, it makes perfect sense why hundreds to thousands of employees must be laid off. The business is in a dire position!
Everyone set way too ambitious targets post-covid, they don’t want to admit that because it makes it look like the c-levels are clueless idiots
