Sure I guess I’d just be offended by everything always which doesn’t sound exhausting at all. Or maybe I’m already not the top paid person in my field either and measuring my successes against others is a recipe for jealousy and misery. I guess it’s dealer’s choice really.

Ah gotcha I thought you were correcting my spelling haha. My mistake!

Are you only counting insular social media bubbles like this one and/or media like CNN which takes that to be the default position and therefore doesn’t repeat it ad nauseum, or do you mean you’ve been scoping out trumpsocial where you’d be more likely to see conservatives talking amongst themselves and so you’d be more likely to see that type of infighting? Cause maybe that’s why.

No honestly if we change it to be a woman dominated field where I’d feel unwelcome instead of a male dominated field, like say teaching, I still wouldn’t be upset at the assumption because frankly it doesn’t hinder my ability to understand the material, I can read it as a typo and move on.

Unless I guess the person was aware of who I am and intentionally misgendering me to be a dick, then yeah, but if we’ve never met and the thing I’m reading is general, then it basically is just a typo the author didn’t realize they made.

As an outside observer, who is a male which is important for this sentence, if something said “if a user of my software does ‘a’ then she can expect result ‘b’,” I wouldn’t assume I couldn’t use the software, I wouldn’t be mad about the gendered pronoun, I wouldn’t assume anything about the author, I’d say “cool so if I do A I can expect result B.” I don’t think I’d even give it a second glance, at best/worst I’d think “oh neat I wonder if the devs are women” and move on with installing the thing.

You must construct additional pile-ons.

Ayy thanks for letting me know that keyboard shortcut! I try to keep that terminal window open but sometimes I accidentally type exit and have to open it again through the GUI, f4 is much easier!

Yes thank you I forgot to include them, but that’s true.

Lmao it’s one of my favorite words. Yeah I don’t see many of y’all either lol, I’m guessing it’s a smaller instance which is cool.

You also may be able to change it in your settings to always display the full name btw, if you wanted. In Eternity you can for sure and I’m sure others too.

Usually I’d agree, I’ve been called a kid for a lot less myself, but in this case the subject is a word more grating than the classic “Moist.”

Same for all laws requiring X age.

Y’all’re on the same instance is why.

Of course, they do carry billy clubs and blunt instruments are quite capable of killing people too. Sure mass shootings would be harder (assuming we could do one single thing about the six hundred million guns out there already, which, good luck) but single brutal murders w/o guns are also a problem and typically target women, lgbt, and disabled people.

One correction, adult in age alone* lol.

No actual “grown adult” says cummies (outside of “for the meme” of course), those are large gross 25yo children.

Problem is that most of your anti-gun folk aren’t crazy, or don’t want to appear as such, and so they placate the defenders of gun rights with phrases resembling “I believe we should be able to have handguns because self defense buuuuuut nobody should have semi auto rifles.” Of course, the second they do ban long guns (curbing a total of 500/60,000 gun deaths a year mind you), they’ll switch to “oh well clearly that didn’t work so now we’re taking the handguns too.” It’s literally by design, simply a tactic to fool those who won’t bother looking into that whole “only 500 killed with long guns/yr” stat, nor the fact that 5.56 only delivers about as much energy as a hot .357mag rnd, but the Barrett .50BMG which is bolt action and therefore totally fine delivers about 10,000 more ft-lbs of energy, etc.

Besides that, the 2a protects things “in common use” according to Heller and “must have a historical precedent for bans,” according to Bruen therefore handguns do fall quite under the scope of the 2a and a ban would be ruled unconstitutional immediately.

Besides that, self defense is important, and unless you suggest people start open carrying ARs, the best way to do it is to CCW a compact 9mm handgun.

Furthermore “guns shouldn’t be for the poor” would help to curb crime, but at what cost? That is pure T bona-fide classism and I don’t support it, personally.

Tbh, no. I expected they would be about 32 using the word “skeet.” I’d expect the youth of today to say “cummies” or some other abject disgrace of a word lol.

but you’re responsible for not trying to vote them out and writing off the entire fucking party as the same.

What do you think I’ve been doing for the last 30 years, sticking a finger in my ass and checking for smells? Again and again I’ve done “my part,” and nothing has changed. Your anger is misplaced, misguided by the very people I speak out against into attempting to silence any dissent to The Party™. Fuck off lol.

Keep your guilt complex to yourself, I don’t need it. If you feel personally responsible for the abhorrent candidates the DNC runs more power to you. I however am but one man with one vote and I’m hardly responsible if the majority of or the leadership of The Party don’t align with my views. It is they who have failed us, not the other way around.

You can blame me all you wish, if it makes you feel better to blame others who have absolutely no say in the matter instead of the party or their leaders for disenfranchising so many people.

Your continued support of the familiar means they’ll never change. Of course since I’m sure you, like the party leadership, like it that way, it shouldn’t be an issue for you.
