I grew up pretty rural as well but in a very liberal state and since course standards were set at the state government level, the education definitely leaned that way. I think Columbus is still celebrated in certain parts of this country where they refuse to acknowledge indigenous people's day.

I think you can get refrigerant from most gas supply stores, usually the same business sells welding supplies. I know you can exchange full bottles for empty there but I don't know about the reverse.

I was fortunate to have grown up in the pacific northwest where being gay was mostly fine, racism was mostly absent and we learned about smallpox blankets in school.

Yeah, that should keep it pg-13 at most.

Boy did I miss that by a mile.

Not in a crime. They made a video trying to show a border crisis under Biden but the video footage was from Trump's years in office. They also showed still images that weren't from the US or Mexico.

Far and away the 90s and it's not even close. We had the internet but it wasn't stalking us. We had cell phones but your parents couldn't drop a tracker app on it to see if you were actually at Doug's house. Gas was cheap. Airports were better, flying was better, fewer people, god I miss the 90s.

The refrigerant recovery machine is around $500 entry level, you also need the correct tank and a good scale. That's on top of the manifold, new refrigerant, vacuum pump, etc. I don't know much about it but I looked into it once upon a time for automotive DIY and decided it was too costly to mess with.

It's literally the 1st amendment to the constitution, wtf. Yes, it's fascism, fuck this place.

e621 is not where you should be looking for character art, or maybe it is, I won't judge.

Isn't there some type of "right" for people "peaceably to assemble"?

I'm like 98% sure they do.

You can be as high and mighty as you want but you won't find a wide audience without relaxing your lexicon and writing with prose. In translation, you've got to dumb it down because most people are dumb. We see a big and/or uncommon word and give up on the entire piece, I hate to break it to you but that's just the way it is.

They feel he tilted the trial? He handled Trump with kid gloves the whole trial while he was throwing constant diaper filled tantrums. If anything he went way too easy on the orange baboon.

Somewhere I still have the complete set of recalled McDonald's Shrek cups. I wouldn't drink out of them but I kept them as knickknacks.

When was the last time you used the word exhort in a sentence? Or heard it? The word has a specific meaning sure but using uncommon vernacular makes the sentence vague.

I'm educated well enough, I was mostly being sarcastic but the fact is that no one uses that word. I figured what it meant based on context but still had to go look it up and was annoyed. Sometimes it seems like a writer feels like being vague and beats you over the head with a thesaurus.

If we break the illusion will it fast forward me out of existence?

Someone's feewings got hurt. I would probably go grab a free beer though.

Can we please use simple language, I don't know what the fuck exhort means, I mean I do now (strongly encourage or urge (someone) to do something) but I didn't. Why are you trying to make me learn!?!

Edit: TIL everyone on lemmy are fucking English majors.
