Christians are on Twitter right now saying that Trump is a liberal democrat plant sent to kill the GOP. LOL

And he was saying this to a victim of a pedophile priest that was getting attacked for pointing out that the catholic church is currently sheltering retired rapist priests in cushy church owned retirement homes. These people are deluded monsters.

I just watched a hard core Catholic suggest that the current Catholic church is the victim of a 100 year long conspiracy by free masons and communists to push gay men into the priesthood with the goal of bringing down the church with the pedophile priest scandal.

Im doing work for a company and their IT shop has been migrating their SharePoint 2010 farms to SharePoint 2019 farms. They have about 1000 site collections with a total of about 3000 sites. It has taken them 2 years to get about 60% of it done. They wont ask for help or take advise. LOL

I created a new one to monitor a couple of people and I have not liked nor commented on ANYTHING and my feed is just AWASH with bonkers right wing, christian nonsense. It seems to think I am both an opus dei catholic AND a mormon as well as being a white supremacist tech nerd that loves Elon.

My wife applied for a job that had 2 phone interviews, 1 in person and then they wanted 2 FULL DAY working interviews and she told them that unless they were paid she was pulling her name. It's getting silly.

It's nuts to me that it's 2024 and people will still, STILL email an IT person saying "I cant open my file" and just not give ANY info about what steps they took, what they clicked on, or what error message they got and then it takes 5 back and forths to get the info b/c they wont pick up the phone

Pride UK supports the community SO much that they had one of their queer staffers type a prompt into an AI engine to create this abomination rather than, you know, actually paying a queer artist to do art.

About a year ago I started keeping track of the results of when I report a post on Instagram for racism. In 13 months I have reported 127 posts or comments for being racist. ZERO of them have been removed. ZERO.

I just used a website to renew my expiring drivers license and it doesnt expire now until 2033. This is why we lose so many people on the roads. You take an EASY test when you are 16 and unless you go blind you get to keep it until you die or you kill someone.

I quite literally had a gamer bro tell me that sexting a 17yo girl “wasn’t morally wrong because chatGPT said it wasn’t wrong.” We are cooked as a society.

The sheer tonnage of right wing gamers whose profiles are largely accusing trans people of being groomers that are now defending Dr Disrespect’s literal grooming of a 17 year old is both typical and disappointing

For me it’s the Taco Time crisp beef burrito. It takes about a year for the memory of the gastric crime scene it creates to fade so I eat one about every 18 months or so.

Not saying it’s right, but prosecutors don’t take something to trial unless they are pretty sure they will win.

Without him actually saying “hey, everyone should go assault these people” it’s almost impossible to prove his actions led people to do things. The people that bothered the parents have free will.

Yes but that would be a different case in a different court. Also, much harder to prove that kind of thing in n s criminal court.

Because libel and slander are not criminal acts. They are handled by civil courts and the only thing a civil court can do is compel behavior (bar you from doing something, require you to do something, make you pay money, etc)

OK. Maybe I've read too many comic books but...I was microwaving something for breakfast this morning. It was on High for 2 mins. When I opened it to get it, a fly few OUT of the microwave. On a scale of 1 to HOLY FUCKING SHIT, how worried should I be?

GIMP is however the most aptly named software EVER since it is, in fact, EXACTLY what I would expect Photoshop to be if you dressed it in a rubber suit and then locked it in a box in the basement of a Tarantino move pawn shop for a few years.

Remember when Florida famously drug tested everyone applying for SNAP because they thought it was going to save them a TON of money and even put in there that if you failed the test you had to pay the cost of the test and then 95% of them came back clean and the state ate the millions it cost? LOL

Yeah. It was fine but they got upset because I said BS and they felt that was a ‘curse word’ yet that post contained them saying ‘shit.’ They are just a sad troll that measures their clue by follower count and if hey can upset people.

It’s always “likely voters” and a giant percentage of younger voters are not voting so the ones that are left are trending Trump because the ones NOT likely to vote are left of center.

A. I didn’t “leave it out” since it wasn’t something I knew but thanks for assuming I’m dishonest. B. This is useless info unless you are either a campaign manager or someone looking to justify inter-generational shit talking.
