There only being that one playbook is the exact reason why I have a patch on my backpack that reads: “Evil is boring”

Well, I guess at least you’re just a bigot and not also a hypocrite.

“Do not oppress a foreigner; you yourselves know how it feels to be foreigners, because you were foreigners in Egypt.
—Exodus 23:9 (NIV)”

I hope you don’t call yourself a Christian.

We have to pay for the services we use somehow. I’d rather it be cash than the details of my entire life. But the money to operate those services has to come from somewhere

Oof, yeah. It’ll be time to break out my N95s again

Herd animals gonna herd animal ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Anticipation of surge? We’re already on the downslope of a recent tiny surge up here in the Boston area:

Agreed wholeheartedly. That said, Oppenheimer is officially the only biopic I’ve ever watched twice and will definitely watch again someday. Which makes it my favorite biopic, for whatever that is worth about a genre that I loathe.

They’re game devs, not an acquisition and mergers team. “We signed contract to do business with xyz terms” should be plenty reliable enough for conducting business. Not “Lol, whut? You didn’t read the fine print? Psyche! We’re changing everything.”

Unity deserve to get sued into oblivion for this

Maybe let’s try focusing on content and not personal characteristics of the presenters:

I’m way more annoyed by that terrible echoey microphone

I don’t understand what you mean. We solved sexism and racism, didn’t you hear? These are no longer problems that actually exist in the world and we’re all just whining about nothing.

“Overwhelmingly, we’re seeing these challenges come from organized censorship groups that target local library board meetings to demand removal of a long list of books they share on social media.”

Maybe you should try reading sometime.

Yeah I have no idea how this was arranged, but it’s a very cool thing to have happened. God bless Mo and his family.

“Women are specifically stating that the direct reason they’re choosing to delay pregnancy is the fall of Roe creating emergency health concerns.”

“I dunno, are you sure you can believe what women say? Did you check the “real” data?”

“The truth is you love censorship, and so does everyone else. The only question is whether you’re ready to admit it.”

YEP. Same. It’s always entertaining at work to watch a colleague who’s never heard my accent before hear me speak to a patient from Appalachia or the south

These women have valid fears of risking their careers by speaking up, but go off I guess

This is why antimaskers are extra fucking dumb. We were always fairly certain all the cardiac effects we’ve seen in people right after a Covid infection were because of the virus, but they chose to go out there and throw themselves in front of the train anyway.

Yeah I’m absurdly good at not speaking in my native Appalachian accent, opting instead for a sort of “generic midwest.” Unless I’m tawking to ma day-ed-dy, n’ then all bets is awf."

My sister and I cover so well and so often that none of her four children who are literally being raised in Charleston, West Virginia has even a trace of our accent.
