Somebody get this man a whole-ass NY-style pepperoni pizza immediately.

I wish I knew how to get people to care as much about wages and health care as they do about this stupid shit.

Partly what made the TV series 'Evil' so good was that it was horror from a skeptical perspective.

…and they basically stole it

It's the American way. We're honestly lucky that it wasn't feasible for the big telecoms to build their own versions of the Internet, or there'd be several of those too.

All cats eventually ascend to godhood. It is known.

Is this not the responsible thing to do?

I recall this being the major complaint from Americans about ending the permanent war we had going in Afghanistan too.

No worries. :)

Thank you for your commentary.

I'm pretty sure something similar happened to me three weeks ago, because I saw it was delivered and went down to the floor of my building to grab my items literally five minutes after and they were nowhere to be seen.

Then, inexplicably, they showed up (open but re-taped) two weeks later.

I'm sure these big companies are well aware these scams are happening.

Very cool. Congrats!

Some of that's true, yes.

But you're missing the bigger point here: the antiwar movement in the US flourished because people who didn't want to fight were forced to fight, and the American government saw that the military draft was self-defeating and, while it still exists statutorily, it is effectively nonexistent because they don't want another anti-war movement interrupting the gravy train.

This is my hope.

Vietnam taught the US that war actually means something when your country's actions force you to become involved when you didn't want to be.

This is on Netanyahu.

Oh the irony.

While Israel's Defence Minister Israel Katz told reporters: "Khamenei openly declares that he wants Israel destroyed - he personally gives the order to fire on hospitals."

The problem is that it won't stop at digital creeping.

Be that as it may, we also only seem to vote for people that we know aren't going to actually do what they say, except on the issue of immigration.

There are going to be a lot of cops using those to creep on women.

It's wildly ironic that Israel going rogue seems to actually be motivating people across the political spectrum to use anti-war rhetoric. (Though I think more than a few are just virtue-signaling and will 100% fall into line when Trump demands it.)

Where was this anti-war sentiment a week ago, you know, when Donald wanted to attack US?

Interesting!

I haven't run into any of that. Not sure why, but what a pain.
