Honestly wasn't on the Githyanki train until Lae'Zel said something akin to "I'll claim what's mine one night soon". Then? Choo Choo.

Get this, in Scotland, pretty much any liquid is called juice.

Israel has the support of powerful governments the world over, it doesn't need the support of a hundred thousand marchers. This is why they get away with what they've done for decades.

To me the thing that made me go "how did I miss that" was a one armed man proudly proclaiming "the Army made me into the man I am today"

Maybe this is somehow enlightening to someone who has never considered someone they (morally, religiously, ethically, politically) oppose human, but I am aware of all this and recognise that Elon Musk is still a piece of shit whose bigotry has made him hated in public and his private life. Over and over he makes the choice to be a dog turd, and that's not somehow the fault of wokies, even when they're misguided. It's like when racists say "well they kept calling me a racist for no good reason, so now I actually am". He's not a 4 year old that just needs to be gentle parented. He's a full-grown adult that needs to stop perpetually throwing temper tantrums when someone disagrees with him.

The people who are there and know the situation can still be wrong. This is a thought terminating cliche.

Either you're their manager/supervisor and it's your job to figure it out, or you aren't, and you shouldn't give a shit.

Her getting fired means she'll likely have to rely more on her prostitution to survive. This means the school has now increased the amount of prostitution. How are the schools against it if that's the case? Maybe the schools should increase teachers wages so that they don't need to be a prostitute.

If you think hating Palestinians is justified because of support for Hamas while they do terrible things, do you also think it is justified to hate Israel for the inhumanity the Israeli government (which has the support of the Israeli people) has perpetuated since Israel was brought into the region?

So, he doesn't have the choice to be better, it is our responsibility to make him better. We do have the choice, yet he doesn't?

Had an SSD of theirs fail and it took weeks to get a warranty replacement out and was the biggest hassle ever. If the customer service was tolerable I'd have considered renting, but even without this news I'd never buy or recommend them.

The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago, second best time is today.

Yeah, before neoliberalism prostitution didn't exist, so clearly it is good to victimize prostitutes, as that's just sticking it to neoliberals, the ones who invented prostitution.

Who has ever been upset at people owning their own home?

is het niet zo dat de schade van geen klimaatbeleid honderden (of duizenden) miljarden euro's gaat kosten

Ik ben bang dat dit wel gaat gebeuren

I'm not getting it, what happened?

We'll see how dumb Americans are in a generation or two. Hopefully this'll fix it!

Me when my brains have worms^

I think China Mieville is the closest I've read, though obviously not 1:1.

Interestingly, or in this case, obviously.
