If someone tells me to use a certain pronoun I will, but my default has been “they” for a long time now. Gendered pronouns in general are a terrible idea, linguistically at the very least.

Honestly though, it’s a good way to weed out that 70% with antiquated conceptions is gender norms which will probably cause problems later in the relationship anyway. If they get that offended over splitting the check in a first date, they’re probably gonna hold you to unworkable heteronormative expectations later, too.

Yeah that’s why I didn’t want to say “you’re always getting a background check,” I know teeeechnically that’s not true but like, you’re getting a background check lol.

Also depending on the state you definitely might need a pistol license and you probably need a background check regardless of the state.

WE REQUIRE MORE MINERALS!

In this economy???

Listen I would love to join Canada, but Dunkin over Tim Horton’s and I will die on this hill.

Right that’s why I phrased my comment the way I did. Depending on the area it might be perceived as a trailer trash dog, a dog poor black people have, or a Latino dog. Either way, plenty of other breeds just as risky, if not more risky, that people don’t perceive the same way.

You’re getting downvoted but you’re right, if it was a wealthy white people dog it wouldn’t be banned everywhere.

I live near there and have to drive down the highway and look at billboards about how hard it is to be Jewish and like, I know that antisemitism is a serious problem but then these racist fuckers are around any corner and they reeeeeeeeeally undermine the message those billboards are trying to get across. Can’t help but roll my eyes driving by those after reading about this, but maybe it’s because I happen to live near a lot of very conservative Israelis who are constantly advocating for genocide while whining about how they’re always victimized.

“Guys the system isn’t broken, just one more big tweak and it’ll be fine again, pinky promise.”

Exactly, the conservatives have spent the last 40 years gradually doing exactly this and the Democrats have spent the last 40 years denying that reality and laughing off the right wing, talk show type populists while they slowly took control of the GOP and the court system.

Also Broward County, FL, specifically, would loooove to be an exclave. Huh? Huh? Could be pretty sweet!

It does, but you’re really tripping if you don’t think the CCP commits egregious human rights abuses.

Switch “Republican” with “coastal elite” and “anti-CCP” with “anti-conservative” and it’s the same old, tired bullshit.

Fair

Wait you guys don’t just shuffle all liked songs and listen to that every time?

And in the case of the EU you probably aren’t getting in unless you’re highly credentialed. For all their shit talking they sure hate large-scale immigration.

Well no, the MAGA crowd wants to disarm everyone that smokes weed, is a “pedo” (i.e., just a normal trans person), or is otherwise different from them in any way, so basically the opposite of MAGA.

Also they calculated the cost of lawsuits like that and decided they would make more money selling it that hot than they would lose in lawsuits over how hot the coffee was.
