You went to a shitty j-school, then. It’s perfectly possible to cover this story without deadnaming Elliot, as evidenced by the HUNDREDS of outlets that properly covered it that way.

“No cellphones” is not in any way a reasonable request. You should try spending 8 hours a day with your own boring-ass children without any phone or TV. You ain’t gonna make it, Karen.

“Worth” is an utterly imaginary concept that exists only in the minds of each consumer. Pretending that you understand some magical “absolute worth” that other people do not is asinine. An Apple product is worth its retail price because that is what consumers will pay for it. A babysitter is worth what she charges…

Wow, you’re a whiny, entitled little brat. I can’t believe no one asked for your boring opinion on this. Grow up!

Your only point of reference is a cartoon depiction - this is the real thing! So blame the cartoonists for getting her wrong.

How hilarious and quintessentially British to pretend y’all don’t have WAY more hot takes about the US government than we do about yours. Come back to reality, blokes and lady blokes.

As a man myself, it’s not in any way an “unnecessary dig at all men.” It’s an utterly necessary critique that all men MUST internalize. Accepting perfectly valid criticism of the way “most” or “many” men behave is essential to good allyship. It’s disingenuous in the extreme to pretend there’s some unicorn man out…

Aww, did someone hurt your fee-fees? Do you need a safe space because the bad writer told the truth about your favorite president?

I’m not trying to GET anywhere with you. Since you’ve invented the idea that “masks obviously don’t work,” it’s clear you’re waaaay too far gone. You’re the one asserting shit that hasn’t a shred of evidence to back it up. The rest of us are following the clearly proven science on masks.

That’s because you have nothing fact-based to contribute. Stop. Killing. People. Fucking sociopath.

I’m not interested in a “civil discussion” with an anti-mask dipshit like you. Your lies are actively killing people, so you’re either dangerously stupid or dangerously evil.

“Even doing everything “right” we both got sick”

Christ almighty, you’re a moron.

But... he agrees with you, right there: “The comparison wasn’t to the wrongs being fought - there’s no comparison”

If you can’t tell how those are objectively not the same thing, this conversation can’t possibly be productive. Is there a difference between slapping a wall with your hand and slapping a trampoline with your hand? They’re trying to create an immersive physical experience with haptics. It’s not all about function.

While we’re bloviating... ;)

Baby Yoda doesn’t care about your human conception of comedy and drama. Like an eldritch old god, he merely does what he does without reflection or remorse. The universe is a sea of randomness. Etc.

I thought that’s EXACTLY what you were saying - when I asked if you weren’t at all worried about it happening in the future, you said “Yes.”

I said “emergent” AI. You’re assuming that a general intelligence can only develop by the design of human engineers. I’m quite skeptical of that. I would argue that humans are unlikely to possess that power, and that if it happens, it will be an unintentional side effect of human engineering. You’re neglecting…

I thought they were very clear that her *species* isn’t facing extinction, just her particular lineage.
