People still listen to Britney Spears?

Snark aside, a quick search reveals she was the highest paid woman in music as recently as 2012,and ranked 6th in 2015. 

So (as someone who doesn't have the faintest idea what is considered good or popular music now) I'd guess somebody is, so it looks like a good get. 

"Nobody has the high ground. Nobody is the Devil," Comey said, repeating a previous statement. "In this conversation, we all share the same values." No, we don't.

Imagine Disneyland putting down massive sums of money for strategically placed PokéStops where special, highly desired, Pokémon are available to catch. The gamers would have to buy admission to the park in order to gain physical access to the PokéStop locations deep within their amusement park boundaries.

I couldn't see someone like Disney paying through the nose for such a thing (given their dominance in attendance and the randomness of how the game functions, adding a large barrier to access creates entitlement issues once the money is paid), but for places like fast food restaurants and maybe places like movie theatre lobbies (past the ticket taker but outside the theater) could be very beneficial.

You know, I've actually come around on a lot of issues, and I do support gay marriage and other lgbt rights, but I don't know about this whole bathroom business.

I mean, what's to stop some pervert from just declaring that they're transgender all of a sudden, and then the pervert can just go on a city-wide tour of women's restrooms, and changing rooms and other places that are only for females?

What do females have to say about this? They're the ones that will have to be subjected to the intruder in their bathroom.

Would a parent want their underaged daughter to be using the same restrooms that a big hairy male uses?

I'm just saying.

There's little a new law is going to do to stop a pervert from being a pervert. You don't get free rights to start opening stalls, taking pictures or peering over them (or worse) merely because you're the same gender.

Whats to stop them? I dunno, probably common sense given that they would likely have the hassle of being arrested if they did anything that could be constituted as currently illegal for same gendered people, and there would be an investigation of the person's past history as any evidence of transgenderism. I doubt "I became transgender one minute before entering the bathroom" would be an accepted legal argument. 
 
I'm a parent and I'd prefer no one to be using the bathroom at the same time as my child, even small, hairless ones. On the plus side there's a great many places we go that either a) are populated enough a pervert would likely be spotted or b) have a family restroom that I'm less concerned.  If a child of mine is going unaccompanied into an empty, multiple stall bathroom I'm not sure I'd be any more concerned if one identifiably transgender person out of the gobs of legitimately awful people out there were possibly in there. 

"They want to have their cake and eat everyone else's too."

Says the people who haven't ever had cake. If you can't make money off of 10 million users paying $10 a month, maybe, just maybe the problem isn't the stores, it's that nobody without a piece in hardware makes anything streaming music, even with the meager artist royalties. Wonder why that is.
