Are you seriously drawing a parallel between putting hardcore bdsm content in a kids movie and a kids film that features a same sex couple!?

Having a same sex couple in a kids film is no more inappropriate than portraying an interracial couple. I find it ridiculous to say it’s inappropriate to portray something simply because it’s uncommon.

Incidentally, the equivocation of LGBTQ+ portrayals in media with that of explicit pornographic content is a position held by bigots who wish to erase the existence of non-heterosexual people.

It depends on what type of game you are playing, and how good the game’s lag compensation is. I’ve played games just fine with a ping as high as 200ms.

The GLA Technical general.

VAT is only a tax on foreign goods insofar as it is a tax on ALL goods irrespective of origin. So it’s not hypocritical as it is a very different thing.

My interpretation of her having to hide the remains is that she couldn’t afford to go to a hospital and have things dealt with properly.

This woman is a victim of the shameful state of US healthcare and repressive law.

Whereas right wing folks will elect vile criminal garbage to represent them.

What country is this car from?

How prevalent the use of the exact phrase ‘Your body, my choice’ is irrelevant when the intent behind it is so common in other espoused rhetoric. The fact is that too fucking many people are happy to tear up a woman’s right to self determination and force women into situations that put their lives at risk. I don’t think we can ignore any rhetoric that supports or gives cover to such attacks on a woman’s autonomy.

At this point I would not be surprised if we started seeing feminist groups becoming armed and violent. And as much as I have a disdain for political violence, I don’t think I could condemn them for doing so.

Progress towards what?

I’ve always took side-loading to mean installing from local storage, as opposed to downloading from remote storage. As far as I’m concerned downloading from a third party app store should not be treated as side-loading.

Do you know that he didn’t take a gun safety course? For all we know, he could have had plenty of knowledge on how to safely handle a firearm and simply decided to ignore it for the sake of looking cool. The fact is that no amount of safety training can stop someone who decides to do something stupid.

I absolutely agree with your last point though. There should be extensive training in how to handle a firearm safely required before someone can buy a gun.

Actually Hammas is spread by contact. If you touched someone who lived next door to someone who’s family dog was given to them by someone who had a family member join Hamas, then you become Hamas too.

The only way to innoculate yourself against this pathogen is by loudly and vigorously condemning Hamas for at least two minutes a day.

It should however be noted that condemning Hamas, and having absolutely no affiliation with any of their members provides no protection against Israeli forces mistaking you for a Hamas fighter and subsequently shooting/bombing/starving you to death.

But it comes with your choice of meme.

Well if you want to execute billionaires then I’m not going to stand in your way. But I absolutely oppose having civil courts ordering death sentences.

I guess we’ll have to just lock him up while we figure out some way of stopping him committing cybercrime. If only there were some way of preventing him from committing this crime that requires access to a computer to commit. I guess he’ll just have to stay trapped in a phyche ward until society can figure this one out.

Sorry for being snarky and sarcastic, I know what you mean and agree with you. My sarcasm is directed more at the judges ruling and your comment is just what sparked me to write it.

But officer doesn’t necessarily mean military. In fact there are many civilian officers, as an officer is someone who holds an office. In fact one need not hold an office to act as an officer of an organisation, it simply needs them to be acting in an official capacity.

So much of this is fucked up beyond belief.

Being to told to “sleep off” her water breaking is just horrific. I’d expect anyone with even the most rudimentary understanding of pregnancy to know that her water breaking means that birth is only hours away at the most, she can’t just hold it in for two days.
