How could they have obtained this?

Is it really damning evidence when nothing whatsoever will be done about it? It’s not as if he will see a single consequence.

Seriously. Zero consequences for Trump no matter what laws are broken. Ever.

You can only become a better writer by writing. Also your friend should be more supportive. Lastly, I’m sure a story like that will have no problem finding an audience.

Maybe a loose fit, but not that loose.

Given the number of times the, er, woke side of things gets blamed for terminology, I think it communicates the sentiment perfectly. When we try using very specific terms like white privilege or toxic masculinity , a great many people obtusely (intentionally in many cases I think) find those terms confusing or assume they mean something different than they do.

You hear “no one is illegal on stolen land” and you know exactly what they are trying to say. Anything more complicated would be too long or end up trying to be specific in a way that would confuse things, IMO.

Cheese is unhealthy for mice.

EndeavourOS is very close to being vanilla arch with sane defaults. I run it on multiple machines and it’s rock solid.

The question you have to ask yourself, though, is this: Do I want to scold white people for their privilege, or do I want to get them on my side to fix it? In my experience, rubbing their noses in it is going to set people’s minds against you.

I think you are making the same mistake they do. You can’t very well get someone to help fix a problem if you don’t let them know the problem exists. Just discussing or explaining white privilege isn’t the same as scolding someone about it. The folks who take it that way are going to take it that way no matter what terms we use, because they don’t want to admit it exists.

I read the headline and thought “this should go in nottheonion.” Imagine my surprise… :D

April 29, 1992 by Sublime has been looping in my head for days.

The only way the dems could fuck this up is if they run on centrist bullshit chasing republican votes, again.

I wish I had any confidence that they learned their lesson after trying that with Kamala. However, I have none.

I’m partial to this version:

Yes I was fully expecting the details to be “It was a Republican-sponsored bill in 1992” or similar. It’s just too damn believable.

while liking the old version seems like a uniquely old man thing to do, just hating change for being change

Gnome 3 was a huge paradigm shift. Most people who noped out of Gnome afterwards disliked very specific things about it, not just hating change for being change. This is a really dismissive and kind of insulting take.

I’ve been using Linux for twenty years. I didn’t use KDE until they declared Plasma 5 ready for primetime. (I hated Plasma 4, and didn’t like the look and feel of KDE 3.5 at all)

Since hopping on with Plasma 5 I have absolutely no interest in anything else. I love KDE Plasma and it just keeps getting better.

That’s me in OP.

Not only do I miss nothing from Windows, but also the decisions MS has made each and every year since I dumped them has only increased my conviction that I made the right move in doing so. Not one time have I read a MS/Windows headline and felt I was somehow missing out on anything I would ever want to be a part of.
