No. I never tried to say it. I just plain said it…

I’d like to point out to folks that whatever your stance on the issue may be, this statement (taken by itself) is pretty funny.

Please excuse the interruption and continue.

I don’t like it one bit.

The government sees it as a strategic need to have a strong ally in the region. That view will not change, at least not anytime soon. The Pentagon considers it a national security issue, which puts it beyond politics. Unfortunately, I have to live with that.

maybe it was a mountain made of diamond.

People are selling Minecraft real estate now? Damn.

Since somebody realized they could make good money selling t-shirts to assholes.

Honestly, I’m perfectly fine with these people wearing “warning labels”. This way, I can tell from across the room who I shouldn’t bother engaging with. I hope some cynical left-winger is making money off of these tools.

I respect but also feel sorry for people who are sexually attracted to children, but manage to control themselves. They have to work extra hard constantly just to not be monsters, while the rest of us never even have to worry about that.

 

I almost exclusively use Memmy on my iPad, so I didn’t notice this for a while.

Sometimes I get the “submit logs” screen. I dutifully click the link to submit the logs. I thought I was helping. Then, the other day, Memmy crashed when I was using it on my phone instead of my iPad. I clicked “submit logs” as usual… and my phone actually seemed like it was doing something. I’ve never noticed that on my iPad.

That made me wonder - is the Submit Logs feature on iPad just much more subtle, or is it actually broken?

I’ll be happy to provide specifics about my hardware/software upon request.

I would love this too, as well as the usual options to vote/reply like with any other comment.

Not quite. To me, it’s more like “men don’t even have the option of building relationships like women do, and that’s not healthy. Society is broken.”

People who share some of my characteristics have historically done, and are currently doing, absolutely horrible things. Empathy with the victims isn’t enough for some. I’m part of the problem simply by being born, until I prove otherwise.

I can’t blame people who feel some suspicion and resentment, either. It’s justified.

I’m a white, cis, heterosexual American male. I’m supposed to be privileged in every way, feel endlessly guilty over things I cannot control and try not to perpetuate, and never, ever dare suggest any kind of dissatisfaction with my situation.

I wouldn’t know how to express my feelings the way the author has. I’d feel like a misogynistic neckbeard, callous racist, or ungrateful whiner. If, somehow, I didn’t feel these things, someone would quickly, loudly, and condescendingly remind me that I should. They’d then be applauded for putting me in my place.

I can’t thank the author enough for writing this article.

The “teenagers pining for anarchy” bit had me laughing. Teenagers may say they want anarchy, but they don’t want REAL anarchy. They’re just tired of adults telling them what to do. Teenagers aren’t stupid, either. They should know the difference, and I bet a lot of them do.

Considering how awful people can be, I don’t want real anarchy, either, but at least I’m not some edgelord who pretends he does. Squabblr doesn’t sound like a community I could stomach for long. Noping out probably saved your sanity.

 

The spammers have broken in and started posting links to sites I’ve never heard of. I must have blocked a dozen users today.

 

I frequently notice typos, grammatical errors, poor wording, etc. in my comments shortly after posting, so I edit them. Do those edits get shared among servers as quickly as the initial post did?

This is an incredibly uncomfortable thing for me (a CIS male) to think about - how alien it must feel to have been born with a body that doesn’t match your gender identity. I can only imagine it as an “out of place” feeling that never goes away.

Anyone who has to live like that deserves all the empathy I am capable of, and that’s why I think that chipping away at trans rights is utterly reprehensible.
