For reasons too complex to explain here, I wrote an Apple II program designed for Early Modern Age Catholics to determine if they're allowed to have sex with their wife, or if it'd be a sin.

Here's the video of it running.

Burst out laughing at "I'm a longtime admirer of Broadway productions" but then remembered how often I say "I love da movies"

Need Finland to do something annoying to me or something so I can devote my life to furiously posting about SCAMdinavia

Though the man’s killing had been filmed, a fact checker is obliged to seek comment from any party alleged to have committed a crime. I called the soldier’s lawyer. He picked up from a cafΓ©, where I could hear trance music blasting in the background. The lawyer told me that while, yes, his client did shoot the man picking olives, and yes, the man did die, the Israeli military court found his client not guilty of murder because the man picking olives was a terrorist who was throwing stones. Even though the video did not show the Palestinian man throwing stones, the court said that he was, so he was. QED, his client did not murder anyone, and it would be slanderous for us to say so.

if you read one thing today, make it this absolutely devastating piece from a fact-checker who quit the New Yorker

Just saw my local bar manager at a gig I'm at and it feels exactly like when you were a teenager and saw a teacher down the town

Seeing as you dug Nitram I must unfortunately recommend Snowtown, which I felt viscerally sick watching and had nightmares about for days after. Incredible piece of work

Firmly believe the concept of "Irish begrudgery" was invented purely to give cover to that cunt

The word "enshittification" is itself a marker of the degradation of the intellectual life of the human race

How a flawed idea is teaching millions of kids to be poor readers For decades, schools have taught children the strategies of struggling readers, using a theory about reading that cognitive scientists have repeatedly debunked. And many teachers and parents don't kno...

My wife was on jury duty there and I was disgusted to hear that there's no gavel in the Irish courts. If I did ten years of judge school and didn't even get a little hammer

Can already see ahead to a friend having a serious conversation with me where I'm sympathetically nodding and thinking "Pepsi milkshake"
