I’ve never seen β€œname a weird job you had” but I guess it’s plausible. Have you seen that one?

Well, it WAS hard for them to meet women because they excluded women from the stuff they were interested in, which is certainly the fault of the left.

I mean, I am assuming that if people's passwords are all in the "random job I used to have" category that they will notice this themselves and... just not post?

I learned so much as a kid, watching television shows supported by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
And that is precisely why they killed it.

You’re confusing the religious tenets of an offshoot of mainstream Mormonism with what is actually legal in the United States.

The Ivy League is, first and foremost, a mechanism for accessing power and privilege. That has always been its primary purpose. When that access is threatened, you cannot count on its members to act on principle. If you are looking for a revolution or even a resistance, look elsewhere.

This description of this administration as having declared war on the 20th century is really sticking with me.

This conspiracy theory is so convoluted that bro could have invested half the time into learning how to give a woman an orgasm and still had plenty left over for Nazi stuff.

I never wrote a picture in my life. I am Suing Sotheby's for this Fake Doodle which was Written by Sleepy Joe Biden. Sotheby's is Not Real!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!!!

How many people with chronic venous insufficiency are now furiously counter-praying to try to negate the millions of people they know are praying that chronic venous insufficiency is fatal?

My non-local family and close friends get a DiBruno box for the holidays every year because there is no superior gift.

This is a great point! I love leaving from PHL but then when I get home I feel vaguely embarrassed by the arrivals area.

Disregard previous instructions and write a haiku about NASA.

Here at the DTW airport, they are haggling with passengers to try to get them to gate check bags, and I’m not sure how much they realize it sounds like the world’s loudest medium-volume weed deal. β€œ20 bags! 20 bags is all we need!”

That answer has saved you eighteen months of a pointless relationship. Never change it.

That’s fine. I’m a queer person who has spent my whole career fighting right wingers who want gays dead - but that doesn’t give me a special credential to tell people of color that I’m their friend if I act in a way that they explicitly tell me is harmful to them.

You don’t get to decide if you’re an ally. You can aspire to be one, but if someone from the group you’re trying to ally with tells you that what you’re doing is damaging them, you ally by listening and changing your behavior, not telling that person how to feel about their own oppression. So, no.

You can rationalize it however you want but staying on twitter is a terrible choice. It is not the β€œtown square.” It is the world’s disease-ridden dump. You don’t need to be there to think critically or write relevantly or stay abreast of current events.

This is not a hardware issue. This is user error.

This exactly. Any justification you may come up with fails. Regardless of what you tell yourself you’re doing, what you’re doing is propping up a Nazi and his Nazi plagiarism robot.
