The Democratic Convention had room on the stage for anti-choice Republicans, but none for Palestinian-Americans. I heard the speech that representative was going to give. There was nothing controversial in there. It didn’t mention an arms embargo. Having them present was too much for the DNC.

Okay, and how do you get voters to turn out?

She should’ve rejected his endorsement the same way Jill Stein rejected the endorsement of David Duke. The fact that Harris accepted the endorsement of Dick Cheney and Richard Spencer is nuts.

I can’t believe the bullshit with the Cheneys. When a war criminal like Dick Cheney endorses you, you disavow them.

Harris even got endorsed by Richard Spencer, who’s a white nationalist, and she didn’t say shit! What was she thinking? “I’ve got the neocon vote, now maybe I’ll get the Nazi vote”?

There are plenty of cheat sheets online. The main thing is understanding that there are different modes, knowing what they do, and how to switch between them and issue commands.

And you weren’t curious about how it worked? Not at all?

That’s why you leave that shit to the professionals.

Yeah, everybody knows that kids can’t understand you if you don’t talk in memes.

There’s this amazing invention; it’s called “wash your vegetables”.

Blocking is key. Once I started blocking some communities, my Lemmy experience got a lot better.

Okay. Define “intelligence”.

Don’t beat yourself up. Here’s how I see it.

The big thing I’m concerned with here is consent. Sleeping together does not imply consent. If you’re sleeping with me and you want sex, then you have to make that clear in some way. I’m not going to initiate sex if there isn’t something going on that makes it clear that you want sex. Watching Buffy together doesn’t cut it. Otherwise, I could wind up raping somebody, and I don’t want to do that.

Think about if the roles were reversed. Would you invite a woman over, watch some TV, and then ask her to get into bed with you, expecting sex? If it was seduction, it was the most clumsy and indirect seduction ever.

Women who go from 0 to 100 throw me off. So, she’s inviting you for sex without any kissing or anything leading up to it? Was watching Buffy supposed to be the foreplay?

You don’t see how reading is better than watching a video?

I think I might like them better if they didn’t auto-play. I hate anything that auto-plays.

Oh no! It says there might be early spoilers! Yikes!

Nothing for me to do but go download the ROM and play it early, then. I have no choice.

So, the ROM leaking early has…what to do with emulators?

At this point, I think it’s gone from “ethically okay” to “mandatory”.

It’s like downloading Metallica’s newest album. Sure, I might never listen to it, but it’s the principle.

Eating a little bit of dirt probably won’t hurt you, but it is unpleasant.

Also “the Jews killed Jesus” is a classic antisemitic trope.
