I used to not like when people would shitpost about bigots being Secret Transes. But I’m not gonna lie, with how often these fuck knuckles have accused my cisgender wife of being trans because she’s 5’10" and rather butch looking? Or the piece of shit lady who transvestigated my at the time 2 year old daughter? I can’t bring myself to care about it happening to this “Behold, the Master Race” looking headass.
Can’t be Charlie Kirk’s, face is too big. Gotta be some unfortunate look alike’s love child instead.
Oh don’t worry. They don’t understand how eyes work either.
What they’re saying best I can decipher is that seeing that bolt of lightning or that arc from a wire isn’t you setting the “electricity” itself. It’s you seeing something that it’s doing. Like the arc is a shadow puppet and “electricity” as they define it is the hand casting the shadow.
What they essentially want is for you to be able to take a picture of a lightning bolt and zoom in to see the individual electrons moving through the air. Fundamentally entirely misunderstanding how science says electricity works.
“That’s not you observing electricity, that’s just seeing something electricity does heathen.”
Those guys probably.
Their argument seems to be that since you can’t actually see it, as in you can’t pump electricity into a clear pipe and see flowing through the pipe like water. That “science” must just be lying to you.
It was apparently first printed in 1976 according to this page I found discussing it.
Those pesky pixies do have a penchant for producing pain.
I personally enabled it a long time ago because I didn’t want anything I didn’t directly hide in the store to be hidden from me. Changed my mind after being inundated by the sheer fucking number of them. It was like half my damn recommendations sometimes.
Yep, it’s under account details then store preferences. I posted this in another comment somewhere else in the thread but here’s a screen grab of it on mobile.
Realistically it’s not crazy to be at least a little bit upset with the sheer fucking number of them. I just wanted to make sure you and others knew that you can hide those smut games without hiding like everything with any NSFW content in it.
You can hide those porn games in your preferences at least. Not the same, but at least you don’t have to see them if you don’t want to. It even distinguishes between games that have nudity/sex and those that are flat out porn.
There’s a setting in your store preferences to hide those games. It distinguishes between “there’s sometimes nudity” and “porn game” even. 
That’s only if you’re a person from outside that was put into the simulation. If we’re all just simulated beings we’d never know.
No that’s Abu. You’re thinking of that alien dude that eats cats.
Do you know what “distinction without difference” means? It’s when you present two things as being entirely different when they function the same way. By treating what ICE is going right now as some new “distinct” thing and ignoring how it’s part of a broader issue you make it easier to ignore the whole issue.
Say we win and ICE vanished tomorrow. What is there to stop Red States from just weaponizing the regular old carceral system to effectively continue the same policy? How do you fight against it when you were so bent on saying “No, this is different,” and everyone just shrugs because “Oh they’re getting due process now. What more do you want? They’re criminals,”
You don’t have to say that this is some new horror we’ve never seen before to stress how bad what ICE is doing is. You’re actively working against yourself when you make ICE out to be some extraordinary aberration and not the natural progression of American policing.
The fuck do you mean am I for real? Yes let’s compare this group of people getting arrested by “law enforcement officers” because “trust me bro, they’re criminals and need to be deported,” with this group of people being arrested by law enforcement officers because “trust me bro, they’re criminals and need to go to prison,” shall we?
One group gets no trial, the other gets pressured into pleading guilty regardless of whether they actually did the thing they were arrested for, gets as little as 5 minutes with their public defender depending on the location, and can still end up losing everything even if they’re acquitted because of how long they were held for. Oh yeah, that’s due process alright.
Of course ICE is the battle we need to fight right now, but let’s not fucking pretend that this is some fresh horror we’ve never seen before. They just feel like they can get away with being more bold with it because “they’re illegals” where they don’t feel that way with poor people yet. They still feel the need to pretend we get due process.
No no no, it’s where you learn to make partially dehydrated juice that you can freeze for easy storage and just add water to when you’re ready to make it.
It’s a distinction without a difference. At the end of the day both groups are still random people the government has said “These are bad people trust us,” and have not proven it. Pretrial detention still definitionally means they’re being held without trial. It’s just been decided it’s okay in one situation and not the other. What does it matter if someone is theoretically “awaiting trial” if in practice they are just waiting the rest of their lives?
Yes, the immigration detentions are worse. But both are still fundamentally denying due process to those detained.
A huge chunk of the American carceral system is people in jail awaiting trial. According to the Prison Policy Institute 70% of the population of city and county jails are pretrial detentions. They can’t afford bail so they are stuck in jail without ever being convicted of anything.
As someone who due to dealing with chronic pain and having to pick my grooming battles often looks like the most neckbearded, “tips fedora” ass reddit mod MF that ever lived. I can imagine at least a little bit.
Like I’m not out here neglecting basic hygiene which is a step up from some of the people I’ve met. But shaving is definitely the first thing that gets dropped when my pain starts flaring up and then I start looking more and more like the kind of person that’s had a few too many “actually she’s a 3,000 year old vampire so it’s fine,” conversations.
