In this case, they tried to weaponize the law against an enemy and it didn’t work.

Let’s see what they do next. Do they drop it? Does he suddenly fall down some stairs or shoot himself in the back of the head three times? Basically, are they wannabe fascists or the real thing?

I am once again begging people to not post headlines that start with “Trump, 79,” that doesn’t end with. Well. You know.

It was such a godawful movie but this got a chuckle

I understand your sentiment, but a lot of that isn’t right.

Early iPhone apps were going for $10-20. So many developers being okay with just data harvesting plus so many devices out there made the $0.99 / free with ads model dominate – people got used to “free” apps from the big guys (Facebook, Google, whoever).

iOS apps are pretty resilient to OS updates. They usually only totally break when huge changes happen (dropping 32-bit support, etc) and those happen once a decade.

Tons of Windows software didn’t survive the 3.1 to 95 transition. A bunch died on 98 to XP, too. In the Apple world, a lot got left behind on the Mac when they went from PowerPC to Intel processors in 2007, or when they dropped 32-bit libraries.

I’d say the evangelical base won’t appreciate sex with teens but… given their track record they’ll probably say well actually sex with teens is just a-ok with us now

Please stop writing headlines that start with “Trump, 79,” that don’t end with. Well. You know.

The trouble with appeasement is that you’re eventually pushed to the point where you won’t cave anymore. You say no. And they punish you for it.

And now, all that appeasement has meant nothing. You sold your soul, you didn’t fight back, you did damage to yourself or your reputation or your customers or whatever. But you’re right where you would have been if you didn’t appease at all.

You have an enemy. If you didn’t, they wouldn’t be making you do terrible things. Do you want to tell them no to their face now? Or after they’ve recruited you into their scheme for years?

It’s sunk cost fallacy as international strategy and it’s terrible.

The latest copium they’re smoking is that Sliwa not dropping out convinced potential Cuomo voters not to show up. They think all Sliwa’s voters would have gone to Cuomo, plus a bunch more non-voters would have surely shown up.

Anyone’s fault but the sex pest, I suppose.

Gosh, you’re right. I was already primed to hate her. By her and her husband’s repeated statements that people I love should not exist.

I genuinely believe that enforced decorum benefits the powerful. “I get to do whatever I want without consequence but you’re terrible for saying something mean to me” is a thing an oppressor says.

It’s always cool to kick a nazi in the balls.

Jesus, man. The false equivalency is just so terrible.

The devil never asked for an advocate, and those nazi wannabes didn’t either. You don’t have to defend them, especially with language they’d laugh at.

It is not okay to make fun of someone for something they had no influence over. Their height, or race, or how rich or poor they grew up.

It is 100% okay to make fun of someone for their terrible decisions. Like wearing skintight leather pants to your late husband’s funeral where you publicly got to like first base with the vice president and sold merch.

I know what you’re saying, but even one of them going off near a target would result in unimaginable suffering, and probably trigger an escalation from there.
