I mean, you still "cussed". Switching two letters around doesn't change the meaning and the original word doesn't hold any special powers.
I agree it's not much to make a reply about.
I think the attitude stems from the view that using placeholder words for swear words is often associated with religious/puritanical attitudes since there's not really a reason to do it so the user reacts as they would to puritanical people invading their community i.e. hostile.
I think that's not as true today but that's where the backlash comes from.
I mean the honest reaction is if someone wants to stay home to not get murdered. Fine, I couldn't care less and it's stupid for me to have an opinion on that, you live your life.
But it's a sort of catch 22 that you'll only go outside if you can be sure the figures won't change significantly and the only way to see if the figures change is to try going outside.
I don't think you know how laws work, and I think you missed my point. And you even re-stated it. The laws exist, they just dont get enforced for myriad reasons. High-priced lawyers, complicated enforcement, burden of proof etc.
And at the end of the day, all laws are made up. Often, as you mentioned, the laws are in place with an intent that doesn't get met. There isn't anything from stopping a president from just upending the law and it's up to the people in charge of upholding the laws the correct whatever shit gets thrown at the wall which we agree is often very laborious and often has bad actors working against it.
There's very little difference (in the way that the actions function in the real world) between a written law and declaring another set of rules through sheer willpower and bullying except that hopefully over a relatively long time the rules get corrected back to the written law.
"legally required programs"? What law? Show me where that matters. Who will enforce such laws when all of the people running these programs are gone?
I know why Trump appeals to so many people. He's the politician/business who acknowledged that rules are made up by fallible humans and can be re-written. The problem is, when we have similar politicians on the left who try to break the system for the working class the liberals agree that it's terrible in the same way that they agree that trump is terrible, but the oligarchs don't see an avenue for profit and so they fight against them as well.
I think your math is off. At 3$/dozen 2 eggs a day is 1doz/6 days 30/6 =5 5x3 = 15$/month
The reason it hurts when egg prices go up is because eggs were (and are still) some of the most cost-effective protein (especially as a whole protein) you can buy and eggs are in everything.
Keeping your money out of the AI grift was a good idea but doesn't deep seek imply that powerful AI is coming even faster and cheaper than what was already being promised?
In theory they can, but when a trump backed federal government and law enforcement is breathing down their neck with implicit threats of court cases and funding cuts I wonder if a lot of places will want to do anything.
Fire and brimstone follow my feet
