Drugs are fun but expensive, not sure what’s hard to understand

There’s an angle to bomb it from that end, as well: if life begins at fertilization, then IFV involves a whole bunch of murders.

Their stance on IVF is often a good tell as to whether an anti-abortionist is a grifter or a true believer. Spoiler: it’s mostly grifters

Seems like a more important concern than some people using Spotify to sell drugs

Yeah, it’s the widespread adoption/necessity that made email what it is. Discord was able to largely replace IRC because not a lot of people were using IRC. Everybody has an email account though-- you need one to order a pizza ffs

That’s the quote from the movie itself, unless the book has the same scene word-for-word

Good thing Trump knows all the best lawyers

Dictionaries are - by definition - descriptive. It is not their duty to judge what goes into them. They merely collected terms used by people and explain what they mean.

Demanding to remove information from a dictionary, because you do not like what it expresses or the people who use those terms, is the very definition of censorship.

‘Alternate spelling’ is a fun way to say misspelling /s

Viricide is more consistent because vir and femina are both Latin (as is -cide/-cidium, but that’s less important), while andro is Greek. The Greek-rooted synonym for femicide would be gynaecide.

But yeah, androcide would be more likely to be used, because it avoids the superficial similarity to virus; kind of like how Latin and Greek numerical prefixes often get mixed together to avoid the prefix ‘sex-’

We’re letting them take the word grok now? Fucking Nazis ruin everything

It’s true we have the problem that BitTorrent protocol is not though for updating files

Bittorrent v2 has updatable torrents

And fuck you if you’re under 25, I guess

They’re fascism experts, not grammar experts

That would be virucide :P

Fine but only if we can bring back the 90% top tax bracket too

Viricide or androcide; viricide is more etymologically consistent, but I expect would be less common (if either term were common at all, which they aren’t)

Yeah, Bluesky is fake decentralized
