Not my comment

Huh? What point are you making in asking the question? Their point seems crystal to me.

Just because the company making money off of purchasers says it’s good for cats. Doesn’t mean it’s good for cats. Other than one study that relied on surveyed answers from vegan pet owners, I haven’t seen any evidence that a vegan diet is safe for cats.

I think all of their albums have songs equal to or better than SFTD. Is SFTD the most consistent throughout?? I don’t know. This coming from a guy that had SFTD in his cd player from 2002 to 2006. I

Live-Throwing Copper. It’s an absolute masterpiece. Their other albums have some gems, but the rest of the discography is nowhere near the quality of TC.

Jewish communities are often insular, which leads to an impression of otherness. Orthodox Jews may not frequent non-jewish run restaurants or other businesses due to religious restrictions/ pressure (i.e dietary restrictions). Often, those communities congregate in the same neighborhoods, within walking distance of synagogues and schools (prohibitions against driving on the Sabbath). There is pressure to frequent businesses and professional services of those neighbors. Also, the closer you live to someone, the more likely you are to have a relationship with those people (propinquity), which strengthens community integration. They are a minority religion, with obstacles to new participants joining. They may dress in identifiable ways. Wrap all of that together and you have a group of people that are often easily identified and perhaps perceived as “too good for” my restaurant, or my store or my school…etc… they become easy targets for hate.

Ironically, almost everyone else does the same thing, it’s just less noticable especially in larger cities or towns. But go to any small town, and it’ll be easier to see the similarities. Again people’s relationships are strongly informed by religion and propinquity… But because they are a blue eyed 'merican, who never misses the baptist sermon on sunday, and wouldn’t be caught dead in Pam’s hair salon because word on the street is she might be gay, they are seen as “normal.”

Praise the sun.

I was raised in the city…shitty…ever since i was an iddy biddy kiddy drinking liquor out my mama’s tiddy.

Ohhh look! A welcoming party!

That’s a key component of the flat earth ideology. They are idiots. Don’t be an idiot.

He didn’t say it was good age. He simply stated what his life experience was.

Your response doesn’t logically respond to my comment. It attempts to reframe the argument by setting up a “strawman,” and shows that you fail to understand (or choosing to ignore because it doesn’t support your new reframed argument) the difference between civil and criminal law in the United States.

It can’t be a crime unless there is a criminal statute that applies. See if you can find one thst applies.

It’s not a crime.

You just keep shifting your argument to create some sort of sympathy. I guess. No one says a rich person isn’t a victim. The point is is being a victim as a wealthy and influential woman like Taylor is a lot different than being a victim in a working class context. If you disagree with that, then you’re either being intellectually dishonest or living in a dream world.

Even the law agrees. It’s a lot harder as a celebrity to win a defamation lawsuit than it is being a normal person. You typically have to show actual malice. Frankly, that’s the legal standard that would probably apply to any lawsuit involving the deep fakes anyway.

That’s not their point and you know it. Get your bad faith debating tactics out of here.

She isn’t living “every woman’s nightmare” because a woman without the wealth and influence Taylor has might actually suffer significant consequences. For Taylor, it’s just a weird Tuesday. For an average small town lady, it might mean loss of a job, loss of mate, estrangement from family and friends… That’s a nightmare.

There are a hundred different reasons to start a company other than to make profit. Don’t be fooled by the lies of market capitalism. Some people want to create a legacy that generates income for themselves and their employees, maybe even their children. Not everyone is looking to sell to the highest bidder. With that said, the bigger the company, especially if they plan to go, or already are, publicly traded, or are owned by private equity firms whose sole focus is profit and value of the entity the more likely the assumption is true.

They aren’t in my experience. They are stressed about increasing cognitive dissonance.

I was thinking New Zealand but only because I assumed the picture was recent. Probably wrong.

Hollow Knight. Never played it before. Not a huge fan of the genre, but there is no denying that the game is well made.
