I said apps but I probably should have said websites and apps, because websites aren’t exempt. I hear you on how frustrating it is when they’re making everything an app, though.

While the Bush administration certainly had (very obviou$) reasons for trying to downplay it, I also remember at least some scientists at the time arguing that climate change was a better term because people are particularly stupid about the term global warming when it paradoxically results in some places having a greater number of and more extreme cold events.

Ex: every time some dumbfuck Republican brought a snowball into Congress to talk about how global warming is fake because look here’s snow!!

Public transit isn’t for socializing, it’s for traveling. Public spaces like parks, libraries, squares, etc that don’t require payment to use are for socializing.

This doesn’t make sense with how laws regarding flights over international waters work, which is generally that the laws of the country the plane is registered to apply while in international waters. If you get on an American plane in the US and land in a US territory, that’s not leaving the US. They clearly started from their conclusion and worked backwards.

Preaching to the choir, I know.

A 45% cut is insane when they barely ran to begin with. So is $2.90 for less frequent service. This fucking sucks all around, both in the moment and for all the effects it’s going to have downstream.

It actually stands for piss 😌

Yeah, the problem doesn’t begin and end at the train/bus station. Anyone afraid to be taking Metro alone due to harassment is probably also going to be afraid of walking on the street alone, too, which is also an issue.

In that case I think the real issue would be how long it’s safe to store at room temperature, since edible cookie doughs do still require refrigeration as far as I know. If you popped an edible cookie dough in for 30 minutes you’d probably be fine, the more hours you tack on the sketchier it gets.

If kids can give informed consent doesn’t the entire argument for not fucking kids cause they can’t consent go right out the window?

What is with people being absolutely unable to reconcile ‘children should have some input over their own healthcare decisions, actually’ with ‘grown adults should not be able to sexually prey on children’?

Knowing your gender is so different to having sex that I’m having trouble believing anyone is bringing it up sincerely.

California is full of people who are Mexican immigrants and people who have lived here since it was Mexico. ‘Stop waving Mexican flags after Mexican Americans and Latinos in general were kidnapped off the street’ is stupid and every minute spent focusing on making protestors protest in a way which will satisfy everyone—which, what do you know, just happens to be a fool’s errand that will result in support from nobody—is a minute you could have been telling ICE and the LAPD to fuck off instead.

I’m glad, stay safe! Grab some N95 or KN95 masks for outdoor use too while you’re at it 👍
