Jumping Jimminy! One of my college English lit courses spent 4 full weeks on Donne. It was all his religious poems, certainly not this.

This from the “we” who called Higgs-Boson the blasphemous gd particle but make the joke more popular as the misunderstood “god particle” that eventually became most conceptualized as "the God particle?

It seems a better expenditure than flinging cars into outer space, but that’s just me. 🤷

I’m done with the project requiring me to keep Windows. But going back to Linux after 15 years is like starting new. Ik mint was always considered one of the best for novices. Any others?

I’m doing this now. For Mr/Ms fix it myself, I don’t find much elsewhere. I hope that changes.

Tbh I figured they have bots crawling social media to find out what people are using to avoid their annoying, intrusive, abusive practices and use that to get ever more obnoxious.

Wrong.

Edit: Turns out I was replying to sarcasm, unfortunately hard to tell these days

It sure is! It’s my fault too. And it’s sad that we can’t tell anymore.

No worries. I understand the confusion. Thanks though.

I don’t think it’s worth bothering arguing with them, anymore, since it tends to deflect from both major parties being the beneficiaries and at least sideline architects of genocide. I’m voting Claudia. I said what I said, nothing to argue about. Let them shadowbox.

Eta: didn’t think I’d need the sarcasm tag, in my original comment. But I will add quotation marks.

I’ve always been amazed that what was done to their people, they do to others. Just now I was shocked by the thought that ran through my mind: why would you be shocked and amazed that these people are doing everything the Father of Zionism advocated being done to his fellow Jews?

And “if you’re a third party presidential candidate voter, you’re doing more to harm Palestinians than if you vote for either genocidal candidate.” *The level of gaslighting defies credibility; yet here we all are.

*Quotation marks added for clarity.

Ever since Palestine came to my awareness, I read about horrible things done by “God’s chosen race” against the people God also was supposed to have blessed in those ancient scrolls. If yhwh blessed both seeds, you’d think “the chosen ones” who claim they’re following the scrolls would stop conveniently leaving out their brothers and sisters as a blessed nation.

When this issue first came to my awareness, I was reading that settlers were still tying torches to fox’s tails and loosing them in crops and neighborhoods. WTF?

We care. Our owners don’t. Hopefully we can shift the course.

Most people in the security industries that I’ve ever known are keenly interested in privacy, for good reason. There is a reason certain protesting elements *cover their faces and it’s not usually for nefarious reasons.

*Autocorrect ftl

That is because it’s beneficial to their bottom line.

🫡 Really

Common knowledge You don’t have to back up absolutely everything you say with evidence (or you’d soon run out of wordcount to advance your own point properly!). Some things are common knowledge. That could mean that a fact is just generally known by everyone, and not disputed or in doubt. This could include:

•facts such as London is the capital of the United Kingdom •well documented dates such as the start of the First World War in 1914 •H20 being the chemical formula for water •things which everyone knows from their lived experience, such as the sky is blue.
