You vote for the person, you should get the person.

Sure, but y'know it'd be so much easier to cope with the random shit life threw at you if you knew it wasn't a gigantic fuck-you, eg. you're going to die horribly to teach your loved ones an important lesson about faith lol.

Make my god a well-meaning fuckup.

You got cancer? Shit! Aw, fuck man, that keeps happening, I'm sorry. I keep trying to tune this thing better, but I'll level with you, I never actually set out to be a god, things just got kinda out of hand, and... oh fuck! The stratosphere! Nonononono don't be on fire, look, I gotta take this, we'll talk later, ok?

Perhaps Biden could firmly establish precedent for that...two birds, etc.

... all over the walls?

It's not practical.

However, have a shower in the pitch dark sometime. It's the most ridiculously soothing thing imaginable.

Put your shower gel and stuff where you can find it by feel, obvs.

Morally bad? Ehh, I try not to be.

Generally low-quality human? Fuck yes.

As an Australian, the idea of clinging to the right to own weapons it's illegal to even suggest using is fucking hiliarious...

Looks like the right to bear arms doesn't prevent tyranny after all. Huh, who'da thunk it?

that game is a steal at full price, let alone a discount.

Hm, it's been a while since I've been active in this space, I'm quoting from memory. I'll look up some stuff.

There are five grades of FGM; MGM is equivalent to hoodectomy, which is grade III.

The worst FGM is much, much worse that MGM, but the least-worst FGM is much less-worse than MGM.

We've been producing noticeable radio waves for a matter of decades. We've been capable of detecting even super-powerful, super-deliberate, super-targeted broadcasts for even less time.

And on top of that, it doesn't look as though our civilisation is going to exist for more than a handful more decades, in any detectable-from-light-years-away form.

The chances of that onionskin-thin slice of lightcone intersecting with that of any other civilisation out there seems ludicrously remote.

Yeah, I'm totally clicking on a url that ends in fgsfds.link

Could this count as a hate crime?

Look, murder all the children you want, but don't you ever claim we didn't help you do it!

It's not hubris, it's neediness. Some people have a desperate need to be speshul, not just matter, not just a process, but something magical and ineffable and inherently intractable. They want their non-overlapping magisteria back, and they use 'quantum' as a little reservation it can hide on.

People are so damn shallow about looks, it's ridiculous.

The fact is that an AIO has a shorter lifespan, is way more expensive per-watt, and... Oh, right.

Sex work is work, and the people doing it deserve respect. Fuck the 'there will be consequences' mindset, since that mostly comes from the people imposing the 'consequences' in the first place.

I wouldn't be willing/able to suspend disbelief about an actual personal connection either, but it's a valid human emotional need, and if it works for people, good for them.

He fixed some other fairly-problematic titles, too. Check them out on that same site :)
