Bizarre? No. Intentionally limiting. Hateful, bigoted, and selfish.

Lots of schools have a “freshmen must live on campus” policy, at least.

Make tickets non-transferable, boom no more scalpers.

I put a new bag in before I leave the room to avoid that. Not ADHD just a terrible memory. Bag is in plain sight so it’s hard to forget the task between steps.

Not, like, “haha” funny…

No it’s not structurally “plastic” but it’s not biodegradable or reusable which is the point at hand so I think it was a reasonable comparison. (I also said “basically plastic” which clearly indicates similarity rather than equation)

It’s probably paraffin wax they use, which is basically plastic.

“Trust me bro, do your own research”

Even if you’re right that’s still not at all helpful. Burden of proof is on the person making a claim.

I just put my hand over the hole, takes two seconds. And I don’t have to clear out under the sink and get a bucket. (And it’s only very rarely necessary)

Plungers certainly do help with sinks. Loosens up a partial clog easily in my experience.

I’m sure whatever country you’re from has fully rejected out-of-date ideas.

He is, and they’re a lot closer to getting that done than you’d like to believe.

The theoretical extreme alternative is a society with two classes, criminals doing whatever they want and victims with no recourse.

I’m not saying it’s more measured or practical, I’m saying it’s inevitable when the system doesn’t serve the people. I’m saying chaos is preferable to tyranny.

I’d rather have vigilante justice than no justice at all.

The MAGAs only win if the big blue states play along. I know that’s tantamount to civil war, but in the event of blatant election interference they should just refuse to accept the “new” federal government. Peaceful transition of power is a lie if the process is illegitimate.

I mostly block people with egregiously bad-faith takes. I like an internet argument when at least one side is providing sources or well-reasoned arguments, it’s an opportunity to learn, but when someone is just barely disguising their bigotry while “just asking questions” I’d just rather not see them ever again.

In case anyone thinks sand is automatically a better option, it’s not. Fine particles settle in the benthic layer of streams and ponds, smothering everything that needs exposed gravel beds for their life cycle. This impacts invertebrates directly (harming everything that eats them) and disrupts many fishes egg-laying.

A problem with extending the acronym to specifically include more edge cases is that it makes the omissions more obvious. Another is that having a bunch of syllables is clunky in speech. “Queer” is pretty inclusive, though many are still uncomfortable with the term as it has been used as a slur. I’ve always been fond of SAGA (Sexuality and Gendered Acceptance) because it covers everything, is memorable and meaningful, and has no baggage. And using preferred labels when they are known, also a fan of that.

I block people all the time, really improves my experience. Dissenting opinions aren’t always worth hearing.
