Same applies to Korean artists! No boyfriends/girlfriends allowed, etc. Super creepy!

100% accurate. It’s obviously gonna take a bit on the infrastructure, but we’re well on our way. I see more of those things popping up everywhere all the time now.

Maybe not good enough for you, but good enough for most of the rest of us. If I knew I could regain 80% of a full ‘tank’ in less than 20 minutes, that’s more than good enough for me and I suspect millions of others. You dramatically underestimate the power of a few extra minutes on social media or checking your email…

Well, this is how you get there. Trial and error, etc. These technologies can’t be developed exclusively in a lab, they require real world usage to move us further forward.

That is 100% brilliant. Thank you for that!

Yup.

There’s a lot of good analysis going on in here, but what the real question for me personally is, if not Biden, then who? Who do we have that will have a strong enough appeal to the centrists and ‘independents’ (although I’m not really sure how that’s possible anymore because it’s primary conceit is _choice_, and…

Exactly.

Or because not just anyone gets to have a word in the comments.. We’re called “the greys”. I guess.

For everyone “yadda yadda yadda, we shouldn’t stoop to their level, etc..”, please bear in mind these Associated Justices, Kavanaugh in particular, _lied_ outright to Congress and to the American people in order to get their jobs. Not only that, but they accepted these positions knowing full well that the Republican…

Yup.

Guaranteed he does, and probably just completely covers it and leaves a soupy pond of it next to the steak for extra dipping. Why? Because these people ruin _everything_.

Ugh, they’re getting worse, that’s for sure.

You’re dead on correct, esp. about this topic putting off people who are otherwise allies. And outside of this site, I’m positive the vast majority of women would agree with you. Most people do not feel that they need to be scolded or lectured on their personal preference of terminology from a lifetime of usage, or…

Do it. You won’t be disappointed. Also, as I’m sure you’ve guessed by now, there are vastly different kinds of cruises. That one is the one you’d fit in on. A discount buffet/bar run from NYC to the Bahamas you probably wouldn’t.

And somehow I’m still in the greys, and you’re not. Sheesh.

Why am I in the greys and you are not? Sigh.

Oh, and thank you for taking the time to write out your understanding of the process. It’s about what I thought it might be, but I didn’t know about getting ungreyed for one article doesn’t extend beyond that one time thing. That’s... just about as infuriating to be honest. Esp. for someone like me who probably has…

This greys thing is just completely frustrating. I have been reading Gawker adjacent websites for over a decade. I predate the entire Hulk Hogan bullshit by a long while. I’ve made a zillion comments that I’ve been very careful to try and make them as helpful/illuminating/germane to the conversation or topic on hand,…

Ya, why any Dem is giving her a pass on this is just beyond me. Politics are a blood sport to Republicans now, we can’t give them any quarter.
