Not sure if there’s been anything more official or recent but I definitely remember hem talking about guns shouldn’t be allowed near protests after Alex pretty got murdered by ICE

- Comment on Parents opt kids out of school computers, insisting on pen-and-paper instead 2 days ago:
During school I would always type up my notes during class so I could get them down quickly but then during study after I would hand write the notes into my notebooks so that I could take the time to keep them organized and make sure it made sense.
- Comment on Officers call for police cars to be equipped with guns 3 days ago:
You would think that a decent number of pice would be trained in firearms use and then at least have some guns available at each station that can then send out a trained officer when needed.
- Comment on Google criticizes Europe's plan to adopt free software 5 days ago:
I think it would increase competitiveness as well.
Google will actually have to innovate if they want to have people buy their products rather than just being the default one and only choice.
- Comment on Discord walks back age verification fears for most users 6 days ago:
I find it impossible to use for anything that involves historical / old information.
It’s all live chat it seems, so if someone asked a question on how to do X within Y 8 months ago and that’s what you are trying to find the answer to as well, it’s practically impossible to find so you have to ask it again and hope someone is around with the answer.
It’s a place that’s only useful for live discussions on recent topics, which is quite limited in use.
- Comment on Why didn't the mother just use her private doctor on her yacht? 1 week ago:
Yet then if you are a mother and don’t take your child to see medical care you are accused of child neglect and have them potentially taken away or you go to jail because you couldn’t afford to take them to the hospital.

- Comment on Epstein Files: X Users Are Asking Grok to 'Unblur' Photos of Children 1 week ago:
There was someone who reported that due to the incompetence of whitehouse staffers, some of the Epstein files had simply been “redacted” in ms word by highlighted the text black, so people were actually able to remove the reactions by turning the pdf back into word and removing the black highlighting to reveal the text.
Who knows if some of the photos might be the same issue.

Usually the space between floors In a residential house is like 12" minimum. Not sure about highrises and large apartments though.
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 1 week ago:
I just find regular clothes so uncomfortable in a relaxing setting like lying on the couch and watching tv.
Perfectly fine with them If I’m at work or going about my day outside but pajamas and loose clothing are just so much nicer to me than jeans or collared shirts at home
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 1 week ago:
Only if it’s a quick trip <3 minutes after using a boot scraper and brush. Unless I know I’ve stepped in something particularly sticky like mud.
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 1 week ago:
Actually I absolutely agree with your friend and I don’t even stop at jeans.
If I get home after work and I have zero plans to leave the house again or have anyone over I am in my Pajamas as soon as I can get my pants off, even if it’s only 5pm lol
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 1 week ago:
I mean, if you’re doing yard work or something understandable to leave your shoes on in your own home if you’re coming inside for a snack or to grab something etc I do that all the time.
But like, if I invite someone over to hang out for a few hours I expect them to take their shoes off tying the laces isn’t that complicated.
And if I am taking the day off and don’t really need to leave the house for any reason I won’t even touch my shoes I’m going to be barefoot or in slippers all God damn day.
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 1 week ago:
Yeah that’s probably why it’s labelled as shoes on then I imagine and why Canada is labelled shoes off since any sort of foot covering is expected / not expected.
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 1 week ago:
Quite possible
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 1 week ago:
That there might probably the difference in the shoes on vs shoes off culture.
People who think it’s disrespectful to treat someone’s home as less important or people who think it’s disrespectful to treat the guest as less important.
To me someone’s home takes priority over the guest, as it’s just what I was raised by. A house is someone’s home and extremely important to them, whereas a guest is not required to be there it’s a privilege to be invited inside and not having shoes really isn’t a big deal to ask for us.
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 1 week ago:
Canada is labelled as shoes off but we also have slippers.
Although not sure about Nigeria, are slippers and flip flops like expected to be worn or just available?
For me I have slippers which are worn often but it’s not expected that anyone inside wear them. Most people just wear socks if they come to visit. And myself I go barefoot unless my feet get cold then I grab the slippers.
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 1 week ago:
How the hell did Canada become a shoes off country when it’s not only surrounded by shoes on but also both of its major contributing cultural influences (UK and France) are supposedly shoes on?
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 1 week ago:
Where I live it is also unusual to be asked to take your shoes off because it’s just expected that you will since it’s disrespectful to just walk inside with your shoes on.
It’s more usual to be told to keep your shoes on if it’s something like a contractor coming inside to do some work.
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 1 week ago:
I have no idea why anyone would want to wear shoes in the house.
It’s so constricting and unnecessary. Do y’all not clean your floors? Do you feel like your floors are gross and shouldn’t be touching your bare feet?
When you lay on the couch do you need to take your shoes off and then put them back on when you get up to go make a snack in the kitchen?
Makes zero sense to me

Looks like she is a Himalayan black bear which is a different species from the American black bear.
However there are a few white American black bears but they are typically only found on the western coast of British Columbia and maybe the Alaskan panhandle. Those ones are known as kermode bears or spirit bears and are a unique subspecies on the American black bears.

- Comment on Rent is theft 2 weeks ago:
Then the government will need to purchase the houses / apartments from the current owners so they still get a giant payday.
Then you’d still be paying rent, just to the government instead which will mostly go towards paying administrators that don’t care or do anything just like current landlords.
Unless you mean all social government owned housing should be free, and most private property should be government owned.

Fuck.
Now instead of each new generation of TVs being slightly higher in resolution some god damn business tech executive is going to focus on some god damn bullshit to try and change or add which is going be absolutely fucking ridiculous or pointless and annoying like AI television shit or TV gaming or fuck my life. Smart TVs are bad enough but they can’t help themselves they need to change or add shit all the fucking time to “INNOVATE!!!” and show stockholder value.
Resolution was something easy and time consuming but we can’t rely on that keeping them from fucking TV up any more.
