@TheRealTraceyDelaney , see that guy top dead center? Biden did that. And that's why I didn't vote for Biden.

@lauren @neurovagrant talk to people who don't talk?? How many have you met at dinner parties where they feel comfortable to chat about Musk?

@lauren @neurovagrant , I don't know him personally, I just know what is publicly available.

@lauren @neurovagrant , he was the lead engineer on tesla power plants, and if you ever watch his discussions of the development of the Raptor engines, you can see he knows his stuff.

@lauren @neurovagrant , he is a good engineer, and like many good engineers, he has limited ability to understand humans. Their advantages, and their disadvantages. To compound the issue, I strongly suspect he is more than slightly autistic. Trump, for all his faults, isn't autistic, just immoral, or sociopathic.

@w7voa , I would expect the State Dept to deny such a story. I doubt it happened, but I think the USA and Norway are perfectly capable of doing such, and have done far worse in the past.

@Naich @asociologist , far anyone still not understanding, stop teaching your kids they are going to be killed if they go to school. You are commiting an insidious form of child abuse. Don't even tell them sports will kill them, but do insist they wear protective gear, because that is the #1 killer on schools, and far more injuries happen than deaths. Don't scar your kids with that either. Just teach your kids how to think, so you don't start thinking murder is OK.

@Naich @asociologist I desire we become better strangers. Good people do not even ask the question "what is good about murder." Even thinking that question indicates you are a bad person. Have a nice life, away from me.

@RitchieTorres , please reconsider. Right now he is a very public face of the GQP, and could remain such for years. Just leave him to be that face, and point him out again and again, and how the rest of the GQP (except Romney) thinks he is just fine.

@Naich @asociologist , fact: The number one killer of students on schools in the USA is sports. Fact: The safest place in the USA for a child is a school. Opinion: that we are causing kids great harm by teaching them to fear schools, and telling them to expect to be shot to death at any moment, and practicing active shooter drills.

Thank you for miscorrecting me. You are dismissed.

@Naich @asociologist if I ever feel the need to equate sports and murder, I will remember your post.

@Stoned_Deva_ , you forgot the "/s".

@jaykuo , we saw two different speeches. The one I saw was Biden telling the world that republicans are not the bad guys, and he could work with them. That just isn't realistic.

@asociologist , Schools are still the safest place in the United States for kids. And as far as I know, the number one killer on school property is sports injuries. I wish we taught people that, rather than how to be scared. We are not doing our kids a service making them feel afraid 24/7.

@swordsjew , welcome back!

@msquebanh , here it is:

@msquebanh , I was found a couple of days ago by a bunch of neo nazi trolls who wanted to talk about gay sex with black folks. It seems some servers are well known for harboring these people. I have only been on Mastodon since Oct, and hadn't discovered this dark underbelly, but the owner of my instance directed me to a nice resource, which I will post a link to soon...
