It's not pedantic to object to "nearly 1 chicken per man, woman, and child" in the US when it's much closer to "1 chicken per 4 people" than it is to the former.

He is having awesome sex. I'm sure that Peter Thiel uses his throat goat regularly.

It's a pretty standard take on the commie side that stuff like colonialism and American slavery are pretty much the capitalist equivalent of the communist mass deaths, so I think their position is that everyone's a hypocrite who has to support a government committing some kind of mass murder (in the modern day, America's mass murder in this lens is its alliance with Israel). Since Americans won't admit their government's atrocities (even though a lot of them do call out the US, but that's not how they see it), why should they admit the atrocities of the USSR?

Yes yes all Christians are completely duplicitous in all of their actions and thus there cannot be a single person associated with this project who has a genuinely heartfelt belief that the suicidal are making a terrible mistake and that it's a moral act to try to prevent them from doing so, approaching the problem through the lens by which they (mis?)understand the world. Certainly none of the people involved may have struggled with their own suicidal ideation and want to pay forward the kindnesses they received that kept them from pulling the trigger. The first thing the JesusCares.com website asks you is how much money you're able to tithe to whatever church you're associated with and if you answer less than $100/month they tell you that death is preferable to the poverty you live in and provide detailed instructions on the least painful method of slitting your wrists.

Yes, that's what they're saying.

-500F is about 40 degrees F colder than absolute zero. It has never been that cold anywhere in the universe. -200F is certainly more "actually possible in our current understanding of physics", but it's over 100 degrees colder than the current Martian temperature and thus also not a temperature it's ever been on Earth, even at the heart of the coldest Ice Age directly on the poles. While Earth's average temperature has certainly fluctuated, the temperatures you're talking about are so cold that all life on Earth would have gone extinct.

Well you already know how to find this place, so find a Linux-themed instance and either ask your question or better yet post a "guide" telling people to resolve your problem by doing some wrong method you've already tried so that someone else calls you an idiot and posts the correct answer out of spite.

As somebody with a System76 laptop, I'm feeling personally attacked.

As a gay man, let me make it clear: letting non-Democrats get into power does not do anything to hurt the politicians and does everything to empower those who would have me and people like me in the LGBTQ+ community dead. A vote that puts Trump in power - whether directly or indirectly - is a vote for the continued genocide of American minorities.

Only 79? Less than half of what I'd hoped for. (First man to 160.)
