Gentle reminder: changing her stance on the Gaza genocide was the “damned if you do” side of the trap that she didn’t go for.

Gentle idea: maybe think a few moves ahead. Even the conservatives were.

They were “Look at the story we could tell and the wondrous adventure we’re embarking on together”

And then pod-racing, and puppets, and a jibber-jabber secret sith, and toys.

fed up with democrats funding fascism and genocide

Instead of being fascist and genocidal? It’s a weird and stupid frying-pan/fire take on things, as if people can’t do simple math.

Oh my god, how many times does it need to be said?

Shoot for the impossible and earn yourselves a dictatorship by splitting the vote and electing Trump. Be ready with the champagne if he wins because you’ll’ve been a big part of that and you should be proud.

Why do you think she was hobnobbing with Putin? The only question is whether she knows she’s being played for a fool here.

avoidable misunderstandings

You didn’t watch a lot of Three’s Company, did you? :-D

What’d I miss? I’ve worked for some bosses who were complete assholes, and I’ve worked for bosses where learning they had ADHD or OCD is absolutely no surprise. I’ve also worked for people-pleasers and pranksters.

I’m gonna all but beg for downvotes, but i admit I haven’t been paying enough attention to spot more than just immature serially-hyper-focused “ha ha look at me that was fun for the 50th time wanna know what my favourite dinosaur is?” behaviour of someone with profound ADHD.

Where was she a documented asshole beyond that? It was in the dreck I just really ignored?

While I have your attention before the downvote, I’m glad that she seemed more relaxed in that special, that she brought Portia up - who is a stunner to this day, wow - for this maybe-last appearance like “this is me happy now” and how far a cry that was from her early days hiding her sexuality from herself, then family, then work. If she’s happy as she quits the biz, then I think that’s everyone.

because they enthusiastically participate in war crimes

When someone says “begs the question”, this is what they mean.

because the another backdoor

You’re gonna want a cat-scan.

I’m drawing a blank on the term. What’s the word we use when one group of people get an advantage over others due entirely to circumstances around genes and birth?

Apple and Google turn a blind eye to large apps.

I know people at both companies adjacent to compliance groups. They certainly do NOT turn a blind eye. They know if they mess it up once then they’re BlackBerry.

A long time ago I dated a girl whose natural scent was this subtle heady musk.

Oh, but it was intoxicating. 30 years and I can still remember it.

“educated” people (usually just what they like to say when they mean “not black”)

Please don’t be racist. Education level is unconnected to race.

Please don’t call other people racist, unless slander is your thing.

Interested to see how the arrest and trial goes. Will it be Fox as co-conspirator or are they a separate trial?

Hands up if you’re gonna remember this thing six months after it was vaporwared.

I know I’m not. I barely know there’s an American election coming, and in this climate that’s an astounding level of disconnect. You could tell me a meteor’s coming in 6 mo and I’d forget in a week. I hate looting and burning at the very last minute, too, but we all know that’s gonna happen.

begs the question

You sure it’s beggaring a question?

Neat!

Now adjust for mountains.

Always, always, decide on a time zone that matches the clock above the CEOs desk at the company buying the service.

You’re selling boats? Customer’s wall clock. You’re talking with azure support because your bill has some bloated charges? You better believe your clock is the only one that counts. The highest ranking person in the entity forking over cash has control over time zones and fuck everyone else.

The next time I ask Siri anything, she better just tell me the time in Atlanta even if I ask for anything else.

Restating an opinion doesn’t make it better.

The cruelty is the point. It only affects those protesting for good causes anyway – those protesting in support of their orange Jesus won’t have masks anyway.

Are you confusing Alexa and Trump?
