AnnaArchivist is not the asshole here. this is extremely out-of-line and entitled behavior on CurrentRisk's part, whining about something as insignificant as download speeds and hounding AnnaArchivist for a response she is not obligated to give, on a post that's combative and immature and generally not worthy of her consideration, when she has so many better things to be doing

idk, seems like forced birth and pedophilia are bigger threats to the dignity of the woman and the child than surrogacy

it isn't obvious to anyone reading mainstream news. news orgs are bending over backwards to obfuscate who's actually doing the killing (one particularly egregious example being the NYT writing a whole-ass haiku instead of stating that Israeli soldiers opened fire on Palestinians seeking aid). sure, this particular headline would be ok if it was common knowledge that Israel is causing the wanton destruction in Gaza, but thanks to every other headline being like this, it isn't

would you trust them to play nice in the Fediverse after all they've done?

i wouldn't trust The Sun further than i can throw it. its accuracy is on par with The Daily Mail
