I suppose the bigger question is what the chief Justice thinks of Sam Alito's insane delta wave pattern metriculations... Something akin to marbled colliding I presume, or the sound of gravel trapped in a sandle (but not a thong sandle, because that'd be way too riskée)

Firing staff before knowing their duties, expertise, or function, generally has that sort of consequence.
A genius like Musk would know that already, no fucks given, no fucks offered.

I can't imagine I'd ever get used to reading that! Lol nor would I ever want that in a language when the clean _ takes up exactly the same amount of ascii space but without many confusion whatsoever lol

I bet I'll get a lot of pushback for this lol but w/e, for me it's css's
!important
I see that in a code base and I'm instantly terrified that I won't be able to predict how anything will work by stepping through it in order.

Right, you're emphasizing my point then. This wasn't a last minute gutshot reaction to a sudden issue; it's a cultural problem spanning decades where people who used to discuss politics with varying opinions began soloing and virtue signalling using shame as a cudgel to avoid thinking too hard.

You know what costs less than human rights though? Everyone who voted for Trump donating $5 to an independent transparent lobby that actually acted on the wishes of independent public polls to push legislation no matter who got elected.
That didn't happen because voters chose to be lazy.

It's not anyone else's fault that our culture doesn't read books, debate, consume news impartially, fact check with the internet in our pockets, critically think about obvious lies about economics and migrants, or perform basic arithmetic concerning unfunded liabilities or polls re: healthcare.

"Became corrupt"?
Citizens United made it a free for all leap frog Olympic for decades lol. This isn't new. And Trump didn't just show up, he started campaigning on this in 2013 ffs. This is exactly what voters voted for, and there are millions of books, publications, and historical references.

Even if you and I voted on the right side of history, did we knock on enough doors? Did we write enough articles? Did we argue with facts and do our research to quote to our relatives when we talked to them with patience and compassion?
Did we not show them the history of the rise of Nazism?

No, they were honest about it in Fall of 2014. This is the voters' fault. 100% everybody had every opportunity to know who they were voting for literally 9 years ago and every week ever since. This isn't Trump this is voters' fault.
Nobody is at fault after all this time and media but us adults.

I do the hosting, production, video editing, garbage like that. I just need someone who can kinda spar and bring up unique perspective or challenge, or provoke them from me.
Serious issues taken half heartedly but thoughtfully. What do you think about that kind of format for shits and giggles?

Dude, we should totally record a pod of bullshit arguments that kinda float just for fun lol I tried to have a thing with a friend of mine called Frivolous Gravitas but I think you'd totally suit the "frivolous" nature of what I was trying to produce lol
Would you be interested in talking about it?

That's pretty much all socrates ever did, i think. it's just a type of mind that enjoys it. Most people get extremely irritated by it, I've found over the years.
Thank you for indulging, made my day.

You can name the brand "meme", the letters m, e, m, e. any chicken under that brand would be the brand of "meme" by legal name, not by definition. it's got nothing to do with transmission (except maybe ecoli because i don't know how to handle chicken lol)
comment in response to

No but literally a chicken by my brand name "meme", like McDonald's brand beef was "all beef" to say legally "2 all beef patties". The chicken of my brand would be a meme.
I warned you lol

Depends on the dictionary we're using, doesn't it? All language is fluid and evolving, one day it might just be that chickens are memes, or a commercial brand name of "meme" 😜😂
Jk please don't encourage me

Fair enough. I just get tickled by language and debate, I couldn't help but throw my hat in the ring for sport lol

Could being the operative word though. Stating they aren't fact in and of themselves is true in all cases because they only may be factual.
It's the semantics that makes it funny to me.

I don't think it's a dunk-able offense, it's just casually comical. We need more mellow
