I don’t visit twitter as a rule so I can’t be sure...but based on the same malefactors that buttressed support online for old man baby over the idea of a woman president also having championed the Sanders cause for reasons of electoral expediency...

holy crap that really is dark...& there I thought sealions blowing horns was about the worst marine animal gig to predate SeaWorld...

“Rey, meanwhile, has already kicked Kylo’s ass twice, and she was a Jedi for all of 2 days.”

thank you kindly...& may the crowds be ever in your favour as you tread those boards...

I’m just curious (rather than trying to side-eye your point) but these invasion-of-privacy folks of which you speak...do they exclusively pay for their firearms (& everything related to them) in cash on a face to face basis with merchants who keep no digital records...?

amen to that...although I tend to say that I think irony has an even better claim than duct tape to be the nearest real world equivalent to the force from star wars that I know of...

having been raised on a steady diet of country music until I was old enough to acquire headphones & a playlist of my own (all of which was so long ago that tapes were still a thing & sellotape could defeat the nearest equivalent to DRM) I think I’ll always have a soft spot for the Woodie Guthrie / Johnny Cash end of…

let’s be honest...genuinely disturbing fox news footage “surfaces” incessantly...the surprise would be if someone turned up footage from that channel that wasn’t genuinely disturbing... disturbing is the only kind of genuine to found in their output as far as I can make out...

“I just want to stray away from placing blame at the feet of the individual for our crisis.”

pretty sure there’s a TED talk out from years ago where Bill Gates explains that if we build the “scary” kind of nuclear power stations (the ones with no off switch) the existing nuclear waste from the less efficient sort would suffice to power all the US demand even as it increases for upwards of a generation...

surely friends needs quote marks to really claim that's fixed...

it’s hard to even imagine...even when he’s nominally speaking the same tongue his inability to complete a sentence without abusing the structure of the language is about the only consistent quality his speech can lay claim to...

apparently not...I’ve asked you to shut up...I’ve dismissed your entries in the thread...I’ve flagged your last two responses as harrasment & made the associated report so I won’t even bother informing you as I continue to do the same for all ensuing timewasting you initiate...

this isn’t a conversation...this is you bugging me when you’ve been politely requested to go waste someone else’s time who might be misguided enough to find you worth talking to...

thread dismissed...

are you actually this tedious or is it all just a rather pathetic affectation...?

“it” isn’t about what, now...?

by what logic does potentially guilty parties not currently being incarcerated preclude the possibility of their being incarcerated in future...or indeed faced with other consequences, as the case may be...?

seems like a pretty open question, to be honest...to have banned handguns, sunk the press underground & overturned roe v. wade in a mere three years seems like a weird triumvirate...

I think that might be an oversimplification, for all that I do absolutely take your point...I think it’s at least possible that it might be more accurate to say that it has historically been something that certain well-insulated individuals have been able to get away with (in some cases despite flagrant offences) to a…
