Separating arbiters from brutalizing and brutalizers from arbitration makes the flagrant injustice much more palatable to both parties.

Fantastic one-line explanation, I don’t think I’ve thought about this before but now that you’ve said it it feels like something obvious that I really should have understood already.

This kind of thing makes me go into denial. I hate my country, but this absolutely cannot be real. It’s horrible clickbait, or propaganda supporting my existing beliefs about how inhumane it is here.

I struggle to imagine someone administering a needle for an innocent man to die, rather than quitting on the spot. I struggle to imagine someone certifying paperwork to appove this to happen. But I am entirely incapable of imagining the number of human cogs that would need to be similarly compliant for this to be followed through to completion. I am not interested in trying to imagine. This story is fiction because admitting otherwise will break what’s left of my sanity.

You can show me horrors and get me to admit and speak of them as reality, but you can’t get me to believe them.

When Oshie re-upped for eight years I thought we would probably regret it and I can’t think of another hockey prediction I’ve been more wrong about and I am so happy about that. He’s a Capitals legend.

Thanks!

The scene where he read the poem was really memorable for me. I found out afterwards it’s a well-known poem irl, but I’ll probably always associate it with that movie. Rage, rage, against the dying of the light.

It’s still Office Space.

Cristall might force their hand if he can keep this up, halfway through the game he’s got the goal and a bunch of good chances. I read recently that he’s AHL-ineligible right now and has to go back to juniors if he doesn’t make the team. That puts him in a different spot where if he’s playing well enough we might see sending him down right away as harmful to his development. They might elect to give him a shot at a few games to see how well he can hang, similar to Lapierre a couple years back.

Obviously I’m getting ahead of myself but he’s flying out there so far, that’s reason for optimism whatever happens next.

I like how “Muggli” is pronounced, always had assumed it rhymed with “ugly”. Hope he eventually makes it to the team in some future season so we can say great googly Muggli.

After a month of deliberation, I have settled on a beanbag chair. Thanks for the suggestions everyone, they were quite inspiring.

I have tracked down the missing word and returned it to its rightful place. Better late than never.

Man I’ve never really thought about how much having the wrong successor could fuck up the whole ecosystem.

It makes no sense to pronounce “jpeg” as “jay-peg” because the ‘P’ in Joint Photographic Experts Group clearly makes a sound like the ‘F’ does in ‘fell’. Saying it like “j-feg” is more correct.

It’s unrealistic to expect people to judge your message on the merits of your argument if you’re not taking the time to translate it into a language they speak.

Not really interested in making an argument to whether it’s fair to apply this caricature here, but that’s definitely the message here.

Always been partial to Victim In Fatal Car Accident Tragically Not Glenn Beck

“I heard screaming and I thought it was just someone doing an accurate impression of Glenn Beck talking normally, but then I saw the smoke.”

I remembee nuclear for the convincing testimonials shown on their website

I just called in asking to schedule and he said “I don’t do appointments buddy, have a good day” and immediately felt like an idiot. I called The Barber Who Tells Callers To Go Fuck Themselves and was completely caught off-guard when I was told to go fuck myself.

I remember mint being billed as essentially just that like a full ten years ago. I’m actually surprised to hear mint hasn’t been enshittified itself at this point, I just assumed that would have happened by now.

I assumed the intended read here is that the mods are doing a plausible-deniability thing here where they’re not outright lying. Meaning the content in the headline here was buried in a different article that was allowed, but the one that got through had a focus on a closely-related topic that could earn a more Israel-friendly headline. Since most people read the headlines and not the articles, this shapes the narrative with wiggle room for saying the takedown is justified.

If there was another article allowed that was actually focused on the demands for an independent investigation, then yeah OP is bullshitting. Not going to say whether that’s the case because I don’t care enough to justify opening reddit to find out.

For anyone wondering, this extension is not FOSS.
