In my city it broke 100°F today.

it is not approval of–

you know what, never mind. i don’t wanna talk to you anymore.

Do you talk this way about The Onion too?

yes. the irony is lost on you. it is… called satire. the author is making fun of the ridiculous state of the world by describing it as though it were normal, thus provoking outrage in the reader upon realizing that it is not.

also i’m not the person you replied to. and even if that person was an asshole, being an asshole would not make them a conservative.

Where should Israel go back to then? What other land does it have claim to where it should stay?

Ah, right. Of course. You don’t think Israel should exist at all. Judging by this comment I’m guessing you don’t think the US should exist either, which means I don’t have to listen to you

Leftists often say that no one should have to justify their right to exist. Of course, they usually say it in regards to trans people and not cis white males, but they say it. And I kinda don’t want to justify my right to exist.

Alright, the YAML spec is a dang mess, that I’ll grant you, but it seems pretty easy for my human eyes to read and write. As for JSON – seriously? That’s probably the easiest to parse human-readable structured data format there is!

Some data formats are easy for humans to read but difficult for computers to efficiently parse. Others, like packed binary data, are dead simple for computers to parse but borderline impossible for a human to read.

XML bucks this trend and bravely proves that data formats do not have to be one or the other by somehow managing to be bad at both.

yunno, on second thought, maybe i don’t want to be using a social platform where communism is expressly the default stance

I’d heard “everyone who disagrees with me is a bot” before, but I gotta say, “everyone who disagrees with me is an agent of the US federal government” is a new one.
