Oh damn, I don't remember posting this...

Yeah, I definitely see those as contextually non-gendered, but the moment someone asks me not to call them a certain thing.... I just don't call them that again, and apologize if I do. It takes almost 0 effort to use a different word.

It bothers me that it doesn't say "build a fucking wall over the river"

What is a bridge if not a slotted wall over water?

Note: slot size may vary

Double bingo. Yay me.

Edit: triple, I didn't even notice the diagonal

It was a stereo from 1987.

Ye Olde Analog airwaves, no fancy digital nonsense.

Now now, Keiko and Molly are perfectly respectable, perfectly happy ~~patterns~~ people.

It's the extended family that's the problem... Also my parents. And in-laws.

Basically my wife and I are the only sane ones.

I tested this with my Facebook app in 2013. Found a Spanish radio station, set my phone down next to it overnight, and for several weeks I was seeing ads exclusively in Spanish. Deleted the app the first day I saw them in Spanish, and deleted my account not long after that.

My wife still uses them after 5 years together and me pointing out all the times it's obviously eavesdropping on us, and she's even been creeped out by it before. Still uses it...

Unless my microphone and camera have physical switches, I will assume they are being used. Those little "your camera and microphone are off" icons in the corner of the screen don't reassure me.

Bare minimum, Orange Shitler has announced to the world he believes he can be manipulated.

Can't wait to hear how this is actually what strong men do from my relatives.

Armed minorities are harder to oppress.

Organized armed minorities make governments afraid.

Get organized, train.

It's that or lie down and take it.
