Wait. What rule?

Nazis?

Weird story time: My great grandfather was obviously the source of the autism in our family line. Man could not read social subtext to save his life. He felt driven to find some sort to group to belong to that had set meetings and such. For a 5 year span, he joined, like, everyone. Elks, masons, you name it. When we were helping him clean out his house in the early 90s we found a KKK uniform. We asked about it. Apparently it was billed as a men’s group and they just had costumes made. He went along with it for a few meeting and then the extracurriculars were discussed at his last meeting. He finally got the point of it. He got out. We had his calendar book from that year(and every year from the 30s-retirement) and we saw the date where he started crossing out the KKK meeting times.

Why he kept it? It was the best work his wife had ever done.

Several years later I asked my grandfather if his dad was racist. Basically, he said that his dad had gotten in trouble for not understanding the racist, unwritten policies he was supposed to enforce and kept asking why, as there was no logic to them.

That is HHB: Hank Hill Butt

Its truedeau. (Its a pun)

… ok?

Depending on the location, no, not really.

Ok. So the censorship of RedNote is mandated by the CCP in order for them to persist. Shitter is doing what they are by their own choice.

How about the New Madrid fault? Apparently that is the new MAH-drehd. I fought against that one, mostly because folks laughed at me for pronouncing it like the rest of the entire world would expect.

That quote was just beautiful. I really wish we could just share our experiences with those in other areas without any judgement, and just acknowledge our differences, and similarities as humans.

Agreed, but please remember that this is the same under fascism and communism.

Ooh. Dunno about the adaptation side of things. I will say that I read the damned thing all in one night. Had to stay home from classes after doing so. Good book, to say the least.

I think they are buying carve outs for the tariffs

Yah. Mine just has full on knife wounds from that.

Ah yes. The “nonsense drawer” as my youngest labeled it. It has stuck. In my parents family it was called the junk drawer.

Well, it WAS impressively shielded as well.

Weird. It may sound subtle ( another weird word), but my mouth is definitely doing different things. Ought has a definite diphthong whereas aught may have one, but much more slight and with a more closed mouth.

Languages are weird.

Edit: aught is likely grown out of naught! I mean, that obviously makes sense, just never actually thought about it.

Not at all. Is too far gone, and the people who have the levers of power are putting them full throttle

There aremore very bad milk-substitute ice creams than bad regular ice creams. It may be the age of the market, though.

Lazy parasite class?
