I minimize plastics use, recycle anything that can be, reuse/renew whenever possible, minimize all use of products dangerous to the environment/ecosystems, educate myself on the issues and candidates and then vote in every election, volunteer for political campaigns, I educate my children about the environment (including what we do to minimize our impact and why it’s a problem at all) and politics (including the importance of voting, how to research candidates and issues). Yes, there is more I could do, but I think I do a pretty good amount–far above the average. My kids won’t blame me, even if the memes blame my generation.

I wouldn’t go out of my way to make older generations feel bad because that isn’t solving anything, but I would educate them so that maybe their votes will be better going forward.

I’ll take that.

First graders are about 50 lbs. Pre-K and Kindergarteners would work better for this. Too much weight and you’re going to lose power on the swing.

I tend to agree. Whether you support him for or in spite of his misogyny, homophobia, racism, xenophobia, etc., you definitely know what kind of policies he’s trying to implement. If you knowingly support that, you’re a bad person.

It could just be an audience problem. Teenagers have a whole lingo I am not privy to. Does that mean they are wrong? I probably know more words than the average teenager. Does that mean I’m using them wrong? A lack of knowledge from one party or both can lead to miscommunication. That doesn’t automatically mean someone is wrong. I used to use the term POS in the early days of my Internet use. It meant parent over shoulder so that my friends knew why if I was acting differently all of a sudden. My parents thought I was calling them a piece of shit or referencing point of sale. The former was just funny and the latter was a bit silly. They figured they were just missing something, but it didn’t mean they were using POS wrong. They just lacked the knowledge on one use for a different age group.

Other than them dropping plots that felt unfinished, yes. We really liked it.

I don’t find cocksucking an offensive activity. In fact, that is an activity that I value highly. Beyond that, it has been and continues to be a pejorative referencing gay men, whether you meant it that way or not, and I think we need to phase out that phrase as a pejorative. I say all hail the cocksuckers and to the guillotine with the incompetent, greedy hacks.

Have you seen Evil? I bet you’d enjoy those scenes.

Fuck. I’ve been using one with an M.D. No wonder it wasn’t working.

So, guillotine?

I don’t think it’s that impressive. He’d do anything to help himself. Most of the people around him would, too.

If they ask in advance, you might be more likely to feed them by the specified time.

Seriously. I try to go out of my way to be nice and understanding with food service workers. It sucks to be them and it doesn’t have to. If they got paid a living wage, had health care, child care, maternity/paternity leave, and a few other things. They’d have no problem having smiles most of the time. I wouldn’t smile working 80+ hours a week with no end in sight.

No clipping and straight to the end, please.

I’ll second that.

Certainly, and I’m in support of all the things that would need to happen to prevent the world from exploding. I just wish it happened without the stress and threat of bombs.

My children are fairly well behaved, and I would be nuked on day 1.

What would you do about those with mental illness, Intellectual Disabilities, zealots, and children? In other words, people who may not have the capacity, or in the case of zealots, to make rational decisions.

Yes, agreed. We shouldn’t have to pay extra to have products not be annoying the fuck out of us. On principle, I wouldn’t pay them for it, but I want it all gone so badly–ai assistants, ads for shows and music, all of it. Fuck them for making our experiences shitty for their profit.

I’d pay more money to not use it.
