Humanity is a shithole. Social media is a cross-section.

He's pretending to be obscenely rich while he's just quite rich.

Somehow the "everybody has the right to an opinion" message got applied to objective topics

I assume they want the states to have full autonomy over their education for starters. RIP kids in the south, they'll never even be taught how badly they've been screwed.

Tailgating doesn't get you there faster. Most highway accidents would be avoided if people would just leave some space, and then we wouldn't get stuck in accident traffic jams for hours.

Somewhat counterintuitively, traffic will flow better and you'll get places faster if you just leave some space (and you'll be safer and use less fuel as you won't be always on the accelerator and brakes)

You don't get kids from the asshole...

Rip the bandaid off! Get this shit closed down and be done with it.

Well it's only fair, now they have to pay the hookers and join a boxing gym; they used to get those activities for free.

I don't use Xitter, what functionality does it have that's not stupidly easy to implement? As far as I can tell the only thing that Xitter has is a userbase - and when they drive them away they'll have nothing [but debt].

Isn't it? Shouldn't it be? Isn't it supposed to be a disincentive? What's the risk of losing $200k to a man who is supposed to be worth billions (but is surely worth hundreds of millions at least)?

And depending on where you are the biological parents may be able to reclaim them at some point. My sister looked into it in my country and determined that they never really became your children, you were just taking care of them until they either grew up or their parents came back for them. I can't imagine taking care of a child for years, treating it like your own, and then a stranger just coming and taking it back (and possibly taking it into a terrible environment).

All the adopted kids I grew up with were adopted from overseas and now I understand why.

He won't say that - he's incapable of telling the truth.

I'm so glad I was here to witness the defining moment of a burgeoning platform.

Are we winning, it just trying to hide our HIV?

Depending on the jurisdiction, you never had those rights. In Australia anyone is free to take your picture in (or from) a public space. The only issue is when that photo is used to damage the subject - and that is done under defamation laws. In the US the photographer owns the rights to a photograph unless there are other contractual stipulations - even if you are the subject of the photograph.

But at the same time they're encouraging the loss of jobs to bring down inflation. Everyone likes to talk about interest rate rises cooling inflation but they never mention that the cooling effect is largely a function of lost employment.

I personally only store things that are hard to get again. Things like obscure domestic TV and really old movies. If it's something I can get again easily then I watch and delete.

Good thing you can't do this on fedi platforms
