- Comment on Met police chief calls for review of law after Graham Linehan arrest 3 days ago:
The only thing worth checking is if the transphobe was treated harshly enough.

What a shithole state.

Why? Do transphobes not like being treated appropriately?

Transphobe sad that other transphobe was treated correctly.

What? We’re not talking about death here, what kind of a reply is that? We’re talking about making a decision at a very young age that might have irreversible consequences, a decision many 20yos are simply ill equipped to make, in particular, when alternatives exist.
So you interjected to state that there are risks associated with procedures.
Thank God you arrived just in time to highlight that getting a vasectomy is not risk-free.
Nice work, champ.

You can also die from a knee replacement.
As it turns out, that’s not the typical outcome, so people still get knee replacements, despite the non-zero chance of death during the procedure.

Your genes, your decision if you want to retain the capacity to spread them or not.
Vasectmies are reversible, so the objections youre facing are irrelevant.
- Comment on Do movie actors or actress keep the skills they learned? Like no one would screw with Keanu after seeing all the John Wick films? And if they did would they just be fucked from the start? 1 month ago:
He’s acquired a certain set of skills.
My understanding is that his firearms training and proficiency are quite good.
He did a lot of his own stunts, and did train a bit of BJJ and other martial arts training, but probably doesn’t have enough hours of training for proficiency.
With respect to firearms training, I’d put Tom Cruise near the top.

This is the horseshit you get when you insist on voting Republican.
- Comment on How come nobody does anything about North Korea? 1 month ago:
You can’t treat governments like they’re people. The same detachment from the human spirit applies as it does to any sufficiently large corporation, multinational, politburo, royal court, whatever.
Even if your specific nation holds your specific code of ethics and standards, there can be severe consequences to holding all other nations to the same standard.
Unless you’re a superpower, in which case you’re the oppressor, simply by engaging in diplomacy.
Given all of this, what you’re asking for is for one nation to have perfect foreign policy that would compel change in North Korea. Then, all other nations would need to adopt and extend the same policy, but independently and without external pressure.

Holy crap is this ever a good meme format.
- Comment on Why there are a lot of people migrating from Windows to Linux these days? 2 months ago:
Because Microsoft insists on treating its users with contempt.
With Linux, you don’t need to replace your computer if it is capable of running Windows 10. For many, hardware upgrades are a requirement if they wish to stick with Microsoft. Installing a Linux distro will extend the life cycle of an older machine, at no cost.
That’s too much value at zero personal cost to ignore.

- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
These are dark times, and it certainly feels like doing anything on your own is hopeless.
Which is a line of thinking that the bad guys love to hear.
What the bad guys cannot stand or tolerate, is solidarity. The truth of the matter is that the bad guys are badly outnumbered, which is why they act forcefully; they need the populace to to be docile.
You don’t need to be a foot soldier to help. You can resist in all sorts of ways. A constant supply of passive aggressive acts from all directions can be incredibly effective way of degrading the morale of fascists.
- Comment on Trump Amplifies Outlandish Robot Biden Conspiracy Theory 2 months ago:
This is because he is spiteful and also stupid.
- Comment on Elon Musk Juggled Drugs and Family Drama on Trump’s Campaign Trail 3 months ago:
Bear in mind that this is happening in the United States of America, where companies do drug testing on their employees, and can fire people because they smoke weed.
That’s for ordinary mundane jobs, that have nothing to do with national policy.

- Comment on Nintendo Anti-Piracy Policy Device Lock Update Warns of Console Bricks for Unauthorized Use 3 months ago:
It might be a demographics thing, but instead of getting pissed off, I’m willing and able to simply let sentiment and any sense of fealty die.
Never mind calming a sense of anger, how will they get me to feel anything about their product?
- Comment on Nintendo Anti-Piracy Policy Device Lock Update Warns of Console Bricks for Unauthorized Use 3 months ago:
I love Nintendo. I have all the residual warm memories, plus the disposable income to buy a Switch 2. I am the easiest segment of their established base to market to.
I’m not mad, I’m just not going to buy anymore.
In time, Nintendo will be something I used to love.
- Comment on HBO Boss Insists 'Harry Potter' Show Will Not Contain J.K. Rowling's Anti-Trans Views 4 months ago:
I’m ancient, so never got into it.
It’s not quite the same thing, but I used to be a fan of Kevin Spacey, and can list at least five movies that he’s in that I really like.
As it turns out, the excellence of his professional work is utterly replaceable; I haven’t re watched any of his stuff, and backfilled any sense of loss with other content from other talented actors.
My advice would be to hold those memories fondly, but consider that chapter over. Moving forward, behave as though the author, and all her works died.
