I find it interesting that amazon proactively suspends subscriptions you dont use so they wont charge you for a service you stopped using and forgot you had.

That seems oddly considerate at the expense of their own income...

@freemo as long as x.com redirects, it's still twitter to me

@bonifartius what do you mean more particles to block the sun? You mean sunscreen lotion?

@freemo What policies are you supporting here:

> LGBT+/minorities: Support

@realcaseyrollins

Being supportive to them as a people and how they wish to express themselves.

There isnt really much of any policy off hand that needs support or change that I can think of. Occasionally something like gay marriage becomes an issue, but I think that is allowed in most states now.

@TomSwirly

More like "A group did a bad thing to others, now that they are a victim of the system they created i dont care. Especially when it may encourage them to change it"

Yes, very yes

@flexghost

@flexghost Not a tear to be found anywhere on my face. I have no problem with him being off the ballot.

@flexghost If states can keep third parties off the ballot then this is fair game.

The day I see ballots where all parties get an equal shake will be the day I cry over someone being denied access to the ballot fromt he top two parties.

I kinda agree, there are more **intentional** false claims now, but before the internet there were just as many false claims its just now they are **unintentional**.

Back before the internet finding out if something was true or not was a monumentally difficult task as we just didnt have the group resources that we have today. Encyclopedias were bulky books with tons of errors compared to wikipedia today, which still has errors, but far fewer and the knowledge is far more expansive and advanced.

I didnt ask for proof, I asked for evidence.

So if your saying there are things which reasonably and objectively suggest this, then its valid. If there is enough of it to draw a conclusion, its valid.

I wouldnt put it past Trump, I even kinda expect him to be guilty. But its purely speculative unless you can list some evidence.

In the case of OJ he fled from the cops, there was blood in his car that matched the victim, and tons of pretty solid evidence. There is no evidence even remotely comparable to Trump, feel free to correct me if im wrong.

@volkris

@wjmaggos

Big difference. I asked if there was any solid evidence, I did not ask if he was found guilty.

For OJ there was plenty of evidence we all got to see, he was just found innocent regardless.

In trumps case so far no one has provided any evidence, regardless of what the courts conclude.

@wjmaggos

I find it pretty easy to debunk. The issue is just that everyone will scream at you that you are wrong. So it only works if you arent easily manipulated by popular opinion.

> I don’t agree, because there are too many “understandings of life”. Everyone doesn’t need to know everything.

Not every student needs to take every class on every subject. But that is vastly different than not offering it at school at all. Obviously not every topic needs to be covered, some might be so obscure as to not be needed. But they would be exluded only because other topics take priority, not because you want to deny someone the chance to learn it.

> We shouldn’t have any of those. I think putting the education about morality and religion into the hands of government-funded institutions is a rather dangerous decision.

Again you arent teaching them what morals to have. You are teaching them all the ways people have evaluated morality and teaching all the varied perspectives to them and giving them the tools to accurately judge morality on their own.

The only time governments teaching kids should be suspect is when they intentionally exclude teaching them about one facet of a topic. So long as the coverage is complete, and teaches how to learn and not what to think, then its good.

Also who said anything about government. Schools can be private schools too, they dont have to be public schools.

> That is the parents’ fault. I will never be one to say “parents do a bad job so the government should parent the kids instead”.

Huh how did we go from "teach them the ways to think critically" to parenting. No one is asking or expecting schools to parent, they should be teaching not parenting.

@SirBemrose @josemanuel

@volpeon Im not sure how i feel about this.. i mean asking for a star for free support is a pretty minimal ask.. but still feels icky.

Updated my handle in honour of @arianesherine when she misheard and then (mis)signed my copy of “The Atheist’s Guide to Christmas”. 😂

@stux I can certainly see a video game where you play a doge that needs to escape the "loving" embrace of elon by chewing his face off :)

@admin

I believe you. I mean i havent needed a recruiter in like a decade. So I cant really speak to the current state of things. People who hire me know about me directly, as are most of those that I hire.
