Unless I want to access customer service...
Can we get our customer service off of "X former know as Twitter" too while we're at it?
If you assess that protesting is not worth the personal risk, I fear that you might be undervaluing the risk of not protesting.
I keep seeing people talking about the Marines and the National Guard being deployed, and this is certainly egregious and the blame for it rests squarely on Trump's head... But I have not seen many people mention that the LAPD are not being deployed by Trump. They are being deployed by Californian Politicians, and from the livestreams and videos I've seen, the police are the ones shooting LTL rounds and flahsbangs at civilians and reporters. Let's not lose sight of the fact that the police response has been unacceptably violent, national guard or not. It is the violence from the police that has historically, and will in this instance as well escalate the situation.
Dr.Doom. He's got experience and a pretty good track record all things considered.
Imo it looks remarkably safe as long as we ignore the person in the car driving into oncoming traffic.
No they fucking aren't. That shit would be so much more expensive than a person. Liars, and not even particularly good ones.
I have a drip coffee maker that's gotta be almost 40 now. It was given to me by an older family member when I moved into a new apartment. It still works fine as far as I can tell...
So I can steal all their shit too, right? It would "Implausible" for me to do so.
I don't know about performance, or advantage (and I don't think it matters since noone seems to care about the performance or fairness of non-proffesional sports unless it can be used as a bludgeon against trans people), but I happened to be arguing with my neighbor about this a few days and found that, according to the president of the NCAA there are "less than 10" transgender athletes in college sports out of about a half million. I feel like the whole discussion is a red herring. 1

I'm gonna take this chance to air my personal grievance with "Iodine", which is commonly pronounced (in the US at least) "aye-o-dine", but if we look at all of the other halogen, their "-ine" ending is pronounced "-een", and therefore iodine should clearly be pronounced "aye-o-deen".
