I hope someone viciously kills him before it can happen.
Like, to be clear I am not threatening or anything, but no such thing as a trillionaire should exist, and it’s absolutely something that should be punished.
There is no moral way to get there.
What’s a thread?
You also read page titles horizontally, making it easy to skim tab page titles.
Try harder, you can do better than this.
There’s gonna be some edge cases like charitable corporations that own property for homeless or something we aren’t considering. Blanket bans are rarely the answer.
Even Japan doesn’t ban guns. You need to pass tests, have a license, and be subject to storage requirements and inspections of that storage. But it is not banned.
Cripple the speculative housing bubble by making corporate property ownership of single family or multifamily dwellings limited to maaaybe 100 properties. Probably less, like 50.
Give them 5 years to unload assets that are in excess of this legislation and get it passed.
Doesn’t affect business. Doesn’t affect developers, doesn’t affect anyone but vulture venture capitalists.
See, the issue is over time they have carved more and more out of stock AOSP and made it closed.
The AOSP camera is garbage, but it doesn’t have to be. I think the Pixel line could still have done great with Google backporting these Improvments even on a delayed release window. But you have people literally stealing the camera apk and manually patching it to run on other devices because Google won’t do this.

Not to mention the sorry state of stock apps like calculator and calendar, notes, all ignored in favor of a competing google service… Which Google sometimes still ignores (Keep)
I’m happy Google made Pixels, but I think in the switch from Nexus to Pixel, the loser was the AOSP program, which now feels more like a skeleton that requires a full OSS team or corporation to finish it. Too many basic QoL changes are never backported.
I’m mad that
A) Major devs get it early B) Google has cut so many APIs out of it and pushed them into Play Services (Google only, closed) C) So much of the stock Android experience has been completely ignored and neglected now that Google launched the Pixel line. Unlike Nexus, Pixels are filled with “exclusives”, and instead of just being the best place to use android, it keeps features from others.
FPTP is not.
Ranked choice voting is overwhelmingly overdue here.
It would end the GOP overnight.
Illegal immigrant children deserve an education.
Period.
Having an uneducated illegal immigrant child presence in the country who are not in school during school hours will harm the children, harm the parents, harm the community, and harm their future if and when they do naturalize legally, setting them back literal decades and completely ruining their future chances.
I stress again, these are literal children, who are innocent in all this. They don’t choose where they get to live. They don’t get a material say in this, and blaming and harming them for their parents choices is cruel and hateful.
Because “show me your papers” is making a full-throated racist comeback.
Morons don’t understand that going to school is the #1 way we indoctrinate children as Americans first, and I mean indoctrinate in the sense of civics and governance. There is some fundamental propaganda you kind of need to know. If you stop that then you deny them the ability to integrate with other kids, sometimes stunt their language learning, and you truly do create an underclass that is less educated, but above all else: has no formal schooling in the civics and laws of the country they live in.
I mean this sincerely: this means they will be less likely to internalize themselves as Americans first, and thus more likely to do the exact thing conservatives don’t want, and simply adhere to their existing culture and import it wholesale, no blending or “melting pot” effect (forgive the analogy but it’s the one they know).
It is a complete own goal that will harm conservatives short and long term and hurt millions of innocent children.
This is still a terrible idea, they have already drafted legal challenges if Dems do this, and Biden is polling fine. They just need to hold the fucking line.
I stl don’t understand how this is better/different than EmuDeck, a project I heard much more about.
I legitimately respect your point of view.
But effectively if implemented as you suggest we’re at a conclusion then that small dick jokes, even as a passing reference to the overwhelming societal norms of the past few decades, are a protected class?
In the 90s, many folks called stuff they didn’t like or thought was lame “gay” pejorativly. I understand the perspective you are trying to hold here in not perpetuating a similar bias towards the less-well-endowed (LWE). But this is a group that ostensibly includes half the global population as possible members, and the colloquial usage of “big dick energy” has nothing to do with actual dicks. A man with a 2" Johnson can have incredible big dick energy. A lesbian who just laid down the law and owned a task can have big dick energy. Conversely someone always scared of others, or hateful just because things are different is not acting with confidence. They’re giving off the opposite, small dick energy.
There’s no hate here towards a protected class, or even toward LWE folks. It’s about a concept rather divorced from the actual physical circumstances.
So because all interpretation is subjective, one should defer to language giving the least possible offense because the possibility an extreme reading of comments might hurt someone who hyperspecifically applies it to themselves?
That’s some small dick energy right there.
This is a lot of words to take umbrage with “small dick energy” as a piece of slang.
No comments on anyone’s bodies, anymore than calling someone an ass is.
/s /= /funny
As this is the only possibly interpretation, this must be the case. You have decoded me expertly, and there exists no room for an alternative explanation. We don’t exist in a world where this phrase or it’s inversion have entered the lexicon of slang.
I appreciate the attempt to be even handed here, but there is a whole manosphere subculture centered around describing and acting upon women not as equals but as “females” using that language, which really isn’t mirrored in the other direction. While you may give someone the benefit of a doubt due to the above, I feel the language is an incredibly strong indicator that whoever is speaking does not speak to many women as equals, or would not be calling their entire sex “females” like one does in an anthropological study.
As for them being grown-ass adults or not, I highly suspect the context would make this abundantly clear if you were talking about people being acting foolish, rather than simply their state of being.
Good catch. And yea, at a local level this Wilhelm not exacerbate things.
Banning firecrackers to not make the problem worse makes sense, given how absolutely bad it will be due to the slash and burn farming practices. But the firecrackers alone (while not good for the atmosphere) aren’t like a global warming factor. But for your on-the-ground air quality doesn’t help at all.
