No.

I mean, I would take it as a sign she is responsible about not bringing unwanted children into the world. Green flag if anything.

In a parallel universe, someone is memeing about how teachers waste our time on useless stuff and never taught us to convert between units.

You may not like it, but this is peak performance.

Actually, you probably would like it.

Just hoping that everyone understands that The Spinoff, like The Onion, is a satirical website

If 14 year old me had heard I would buy a top-tier computer only to underclock it, he would have cried.

But here we are.

I'm afraid that is going to be the case anywhere there is moderation... even here.

All the people saying mandatory voting is bad are misinformed. It is essential for democracy, and should be applied everywhere.

Australia has mandatory voter turnout, but you do not need to submit a vote. You just need to show up on polling day.

Everyone has political interests and needs to be politically represented, but some people are too tired after work to take themselves to the polling centre. Others are incarcerated. If anything, those people are more in need of political representatives.

American conservatives spend billions trying to prevent poor overworked people from reaching polling places or exercising their right to vote. Mandatory voting prevents that.

Make no mistake, Australian democracy is healtheir than whatever clusterfuck in going on in the US.

Some would ask, how could a perfect God create a universe filled with so much that is evil. They have missed a greater conundrum: why would a perfect God create a universe at all?

Sacha Baron Cohen is one classy son of a bitch.

He played Ali G. He risked his life interviewing conservatives. He infuriated the Kazakhstan government.

I was repeatedly called an Oompa Loompa by someone upset about losing Starcraft 2, which sounds pretty tame, but the hatred this person put into his writing.

I dunno why but my man HATED oompa loompas

I'm happy to eat bugs. Lobsters are basically bugs.

Don't conflate the ecologically sustainable practice of bug-eating with American fascist secret service bullshit.
