I encourage you to watch the interview I posted. TL;DW the Dems should achieve their goals (which are better than those of the Reps) by playing like the Reps. Again, that’s the short version of the video which doesn’t do it justice, so if you want to argue it, I encourage you again to watch the video.

Let them be joined by left-aligned hogs.

Hopefully learn to play by the same rules as the Republicans and stop being such fucking pussies. Republicans cheat, lie, steal, and pretend to be morally superior while the Democrats try to abide by rules which aren’t in the rulebook. I found this interview quite good where it’s brought up.

Democrats, go play dirty otherwise you’ll keep fucking losing.

Thanks for the translation.

What?

There’s nothing special about wanting to be special. It’s the most ordinary thing in the world.

20 years? Not 25? I thought 2060 was when things would really crumble due to climate change is we continued business as usual (which is what we’re doing).

That makes sense. And the leaders of Mozilla probably know this, so they have no incentive to be better, just to exist and pocket the money. Firefox won’t get better unless another competitor appears and becomes a danger to it: danger meaning Google might give the competitor money instead of Mozilla.

Don’t donate money to Mozilla they don’t deserve it, much less need it after getting 500M from Google every year.

Why is the woman standing there like she wants to pee?

Do goth girls like baking pies?

Phones were always banned in my classes. I don’t know why anybody expected smartphones to be allowed.

If even during an activity where concentration isn’t necessary they can distract, just ban them. The cinema is a good example they are bright, somebody always forgets to turn off the sound, and while you look up who that actor is or whatever, you miss part of the movie. In school, even if you decided to look something up related to what the teacher is saying, you’d lose track of what they were saying while looking it up.

Israel just made it impossible to get through security…

Don’t forget the abuse and rape of civilians by the Israeli army.

Yo, if it has round corners and sounds USAmerican it must be so cool!

Thanks, you’re correct. I was mixing that up with Latin and Greek. Dunno if Spanish and other romance languages have it too.

Let’s be honest: it looks like shit and interrupts the flow of a sentence. The alternative of writing both words completely also makes sentences way longer than they should be.

Every gendered language would have to make massive changes to become ungendered and change their grammar too. There’s quite a large list of ungendered languages.

German, to my knowledge, is like Russian and has cases which change the ending of a noun depending on the purpose in the sentence (subject, direct object, indirect object, possessor, location, time, …). Languages with only male and female would have to add a neutral ending, and languages with 3 grammatical genders would have to either use the neutral ending - if there is one, or make a new one specific to living beings.

Then of course pronouns would have to be changed too. In English they/them is already confusing enough when talking about a singular person to somebody and the person doesn’t know it’s a single person e.g “I talked to them today” - a group or a person? Until hints are dropped it isn’t clear. The most logical would’ve been “it”, but that’s used for inanimate objects. I’m sure there’s a neutral third person singular pronoun languages could borrow instead of using the second person plural.
