Makes me think of Anton Drexler. Leader of the Nazi party. He used Hitler’s popularity to further the party. Until they had a falling out and Hitler said it was Drexler or him. The party couldn’t afford to lose the most popular member so Drexler was out and Hitler was put it charge.

There was a deliberate movement to reclaim that word. Similar to black people using the N word. It also rhymes with here. “We’re here. We’re queer. Get used to it” was a big rallying cry in the 90s.

CRT displays. The day I replaced my old CRT with a LCD I thought I hope I never use one of these again.

The secret to good engineering is to know when 1+1 should be 3 and when it should be 1.

People die of old age, car accidents, etc. Those are hardly big pharma’s fault.

Rare Exports. Hogfather.

Baguette, butter, brie.

Could be. Grateful and understanding does describe my two trans friends. However they we friends before they transitioned. So the relationship was established and they knew I cared about them.

I knew one for ten years before they transitioned. So yeah I try not to dead name them but it takes time to adjust. For me it took about 2 years before I didn’t think of their old name and have to adjust it before speaking.

I was talking about them with a mutual friend at a party. Someone I don’t know yells at me from across the room “we don’t use that name here.” I’m better friends with them then you and you just made the entire party aware of their status.

Maybe it’s just the people who make it a big deal publicly and like to challenge people. They tend to be the most noticeable in the community.

Yeah I support trans rights. If you are consistent I’ll use your preferred pronouns. I don’t care what bathroom people use. Health care is between you and your doctor. I only care about what genitals you have if we are going to be doing things with each others genitals.

That said so many trans people are complete assholes about it. I’m on your side but fuck so many of you are annoying jerks.

I remember when gays started coming out of the closet and they handled it better. Polite but firm about being treated fairly. The trans community is making more foes then friends the way they are acting.

ATP in the corner. “Am I a joke to you ?”

I voted against this.

A mediocre candidate who lost the 2020 primary badly and only got the VP spot because she was buddies with Bidens dead son. She them went on to lose badly to Trump.

I voted for her but it was really a vote for Not Trump. Hopefully this the last we hear of her.

The first 1/3 of that game is amazing.

Haven’t people been warning for years china was selling telecom backbone equipment at a loss. Probably so they would have their equipment with their backdoors in most of the world.

Yeah apprentice hasn’t been seen in a while. Last time I remember seeing him was when the virgin city got destroyed. (True slut adventures doesn’t count)

Yeah no legs on granny or the lamp.

Ghost steals a guys penis and balls. He and psychic friend try to get them back.

Episode 7 turns into a real tearjerker.

A drinking buddy of mine quit. I got good at making mocktails. Bonus now when I want a cocktail but not booze I can have a nice drink.

I have a VERY southern friend. He once said “y’all all”.
