Perhaps it was the English teachers who were wrong.

Correct or not, people have been using it like that for a while.

Why doesn't New York just hand him several million dollars and a court ordered professional wanking? He's defied court orders, threatened staff and family of the court, missed deadlines, provided fraudulent agreements. He has done all sorts of misconduct. If it were one of us, we'd be in jail with our assets seized.

Imagine doing an insurrection, looking at the flags waving next to you, and wondering what the fuck ideology it is that you're attacking cops over.

He's been defrauding contractors, backstabbing, and throwing people under the bus for decades. Even a grifter would have to be high as fuck on pure greed to have any business interaction with Donald.

It's hilarious that these scammers also received an inevitable betrayal. I hope they lose all their money and the stock crashes before Donald can get anything significant out. What a delight to see any of these lying con men lose it all.

The whole website is cringe. It has some of the best little communities are on there, but they are the exceptions. Most of it is power-tripping mods and disingenuous arguments from far-right lunatics on a foundation of "narwhal bacon lol."

Which developers have said this in public?

I thought this is the exact reason why we keep outfitting SWAT guys with army surplus gear? Isn't that so we can defend the country against terrorists and other violent criminals? So all that is actually exclusively for murdering unarmed people and throwing flashbang grenades in infants' cribs, got it.

"Falsely wrote" is close, but the correct verb is probably "lied."

Legally, you cannot be criminally charged. They will not protect you from the consequences of your speech coming from private parties, whatever those are. You can increase the number or severity of charges for crimes if they are even partially motivated by prejudice towards specific groups, hate speech may be evidence of that motivation.

That's just Don Jr.'s Silk Road order coming in.

Surely Repubs wouldn't tell lies that they want "small government" while simultaneously legislating what we can learn, who we can love, and what women are allowed to do with their bodies?

Any company funded by a VC at all seems to go to shit.
