This is extremely dumb and stupid, and it made me laugh harder than anything else has in days. Thanks, OP!

Um, actually, in 1984 the government spies on you through your TV, but in real life, corporations spy on you through your TV and the government intercepts the internet traffic and/or asks the corporations for the data, so it’s obviously completely different.

I think Jewish people divide the Tanakh into the Torah, the Nevi’im, and the Ketuvim, so the New Testament would have to be at least Torah 4: Prophet & Saviour. Or, more likely, a spin-off story set in the same extended universe: The Tanakh Presents: Jesus & Paul.

How is this difficult or unclear? Just care for people as people.
Because they’ve literally just been told not to do that.

Is skill coloured by the type of skill or by the level of skill?

Spelt? Are you smithing?
“Spelt” is the more common spelling of “spelled” in Britain, where I am from, and where the language was invented.
Your same source is going to tell me…
… that irregardless is a damn word
I don’t like it either and I blame the Americans. But part of learning language is learning that people using language differently aren’t necessarily wrong.

Oh, so you’re saying it’s either a strawman or a false dichotomy? (/j)

The letter “T” is spelt “tee”.

Coppola is certainly a problem.

Counterpoint: He was definitely not the perfect choice for Jonathan Harker in Francis Ford Coppola’s Dracula.
I love the guy and I agree he’s good at the roles he sticks to these days, but he kinda ruined that film. (In much the same way that Sofia Coppola ruined The Godfather 3, actually. Why does Francis Ford Coppola keep getting away with this?)

Is monday-monday [Monday, Monday] or [Monday, Monday)?
- Comment on Discovery phase 3 months ago:
To a certain extent, I think I understand. For people who have had only positive experiences with psychedelics, I’m sure it feels like the cheat code to life, and I can see why they’d want to share it. And I think some of them imagine themselves too smart or careful to get addicted, or maybe immune to addiction in the first place (and for a small number, that may even be true).
I’ve lost family to alcoholism and I struggle with binge eating as a coping mechanism, I’m damned wary of anything that could even potentially become a thing that I need to cope. I think some people will never understand that kind of thing until they see it firsthand.
- Comment on Discovery phase 3 months ago:
This is manifestly dangerous advice. You can get addicted to anything. Especially if it makes you feel good.

I mean yeah, they are awful. My primary concern is what if what they think leads them to decide to assault me.

Hello! I’m not the person you asked but I figured I’d throw in my experience.
In my case, if I could snap my fingers and instantly change my penis to a vulva, I would. But I had a haemorroid surgery many years ago, and the month or so afterwards was one of the worst times of my life, so I would prefer it if no surgeon ever went anywhere near my lower trunk ever again.
But everyone’s experience is different. Some women just like to fuck, and of the trans women who do, some don’t feel the need to replace the factory installed equipment for doing so.
- Comment on British Charlie Kirk wannabe beaten up debating people in Manchester 3 months ago:
Anyone who is advocating for “remigration” is advocating for the use of violence to remove racial minorities.
If you are a pacifist and you don’t believe in violence in any circumstance, then fine. But if ever there is a time to use violence in defence of ourselves and the vulnerable in our society, I believe it’s now, before the state is captured by fascists. I think that if we had another Battle of Cable Street instead of a counter-protest at the next few “Unite the Kingdom” rallies (or whatever they call them these days) then we’d sort this shit out real fast.
