Is this pre-Warmbo? That might explain it.

Reminds me of when Trump tweeted that “My daughter, Ivanka, just arrived in South Korea. We cannot have a better, or smarter, person representing out country.” and someone responded “Why not?”

Found it:

Dude went to see Barbie a second time to seethe about feminism. Entirely missed Openheimer. “Too long, too sciency.”

The original post described them as neopronouns, which is a category of pronouns that have arisen recently due to changes in how we understand and describe gender. Pronouns like xe/xer, for example. The pronouns for a timeless being that predates humanity would hardly be “new” by any standard. I was having fun with the idea they would be old or eternal pronouns by comparison to Humanity’s pronouns. You took the joke too seriously.

Newness is the quality of having been recently created or having started existing recently. The deific pronouns surely came before the standard canon of human/mortal pronouns, just as their subject deities predate humanity, perhaps both having always existed. It doesn’t have anything to do with societal acceptance.

I don’t think He/Him are neopronouns as the prefix neo- means new. Surely His would be old (paleopronouns), or timeless (aeternuspronouns), rather than new

This seems entirely testable

I completely disagree.

An attempt to commit a crime occurs if a criminal has an intent to commit a crime and takes a substantial step toward completing the crime, but for reasons not intended by the criminal, the final resulting crime does not occur. Attempt to commit a particular crime is a crime, usually considered to be of the same or lesser gravity as the particular crime attempted.

You cannot audit law enforcement by attempting to commit crimes and use that as an excuse to get away with it. While, yes, receiving a second ballot is not in itself a crime, doing it intentionally is clearly an action that serves no legitimate purpose and only serves to allow them to commit the crime of voting multiple times. He inarguably took substantial steps to commit a crime. And he had the intent to do what he did (i.e. he didn’t forget or get confused or was misled. He knew what he was doing and did it anyway). Therefore, this was pretty clearly attempted voter fraud.

If you still disagree because he only tried to collect a ballot, but hadnt yet attempted to cast it, let me give you a comparable situation that may make the crime a bit more visceral feeling. Your landlord gets caught installing a hidden camera in your bathroom. Technically, all he had done at that point was responded to your notice of a broken outlet, entered your apartment with the necessary notice, removed your broken bathroom outlet, and had a hidden camera outlet device on hand and no other replacement outlet. Technically none of the individual acts were illegal and you caught him with the device before it was installed. He claims that he was never going to turn it on, he was just testing you to see if you were being vigilant against such dangers and checking for hidden cameras in your home. So did he attempt to commit a crime? If your answer to this is yes, but not to the ballot thing, please explain the fundamental difference legally for me?

So cool it hurts, apparently?

I had to Google to check my decription for this acronym. Turns out it is Fuck Around and Find Out, which makes sense. But I also like my initial guess in this context, which was Fascist Asshole, Fuck Off.

What are these circles we are filling up with press?

A shit ton. Bum dum tss.

Copyright laws are bullshit in that their terms are way too long and are often too easily abused against people who are using copywritten materials under fair use. However copyright as a concept is not bullshit. Creative works, including photography, should absolutely be protected from unauthorized use for the benefit of the creator.

Also, there is nothing redeemable about Trump. Even if you feel that copyright law is somehow fundamentally wrong, the correct position can actually be “fuck all parties involved” instead of supporting Trump hawking his swag to pay for his campaign of fascism.

Finally someone asks the real question. Is there an objective definition to life that Virus may or may not fall under? Or would it depend on Thano’s subjective opinion on the matter?

That would imply that 50 percent of the snapped people’s biomes remained behind. All of the produce in the grocery stores would be covered in an airborne mist of E. coli, and snapped surgeons that were mid-operation would give their patients staph infections, assuming the suriviving surgery team was able to stablize and close them up before they died anyway. Neat.

Also when those snapped people returned with the half of their biomes that also got snapped, you would get a sequel to the diarrhea. Diarrhea 2: Electric Boogapoo.

For sure. I was also surprised. They had a variety of band members/backup dancers and singers come and go, with only Victor being the one consistent member as the lead. But of the original line up, the ones that were featured in the music video for the YMCA, apparently only 2 of the 6 were openly gay, the ones dressed as the Indian and the cowboy. Apparently even the leather daddy biker with the horseshoe mustache was either straight or not open, which was the most surprising for me.

So, technically, the song is not intended to be a low-key gay song. Victor Willis, the Village People founder, lead singer, and the one who wrote the song, has said that the lyrics are not meant to be suggestive of a gay message as he is not gay. Rather, the song was meant to evoke a hopeful message to people like himself who grew up an urban youth and needed community as well as being open to all others. He did not intend the suggestive message that the gay community interpreted from it, but he was also happy they love the song.

So, the song occupies a sort of weird mixed space. It is whole-heartedly embraced by the gay community as an anthem for the LGBT and projects a positive welcoming message for young confused or lonely gay men, which was unintended but welcomed by the writer. It is also widely embraced by straight people as a fun poppy song with a kitschy dance that everyone knows. They play it in grade schools, they play it at weddings, they play it at roller rinks.

So the gay association is only one facet of the song. For those who have a problem with things associated with the gay community, that means they either amplify that association and vilify it, or they downplay or ignore the association and just think of it as the catchy song with the easy dance. Or people accept that associate as well and just enjoy the song and dance.

That being said, Trump might be the kind of idiot that actually is completely oblivious to the association with the gay community altogether. Who knows.

I’m sorry the mods saw fit to remove your comments. While you may have used some unnecessarily insulting words, I don’t think the insults were way beyond civility. Nor do I think that your comments were without merit to your viewpoint, even though I think that viewpoint terribly cynical and misguided. I welcome more civil discussions in the future.

To ensure that their lesser of two evils, from your point of view, is more likely to win (assuming you are in a state where they stand a chance). You are right to be frustrated with the system, but you can still have some say. Both parties/candidates are far from the same. The outcome of this election will affect you one way or another.
