Dr Pepper. But I don’t really go to bars. Maybe that’s obvious.

I agree that it’s not a useful metric to apply to an individual. “Ok boomer” aside, there is too much variation within a generation for it to be a useful way to draw any conclusions about a single person.
Where generations are useful is in demography. There is no strict dividing line between a lot of kids of demographics, but categorizing them can still give us useful data for studying populations
It’s even worse than that, because Christianity isn’t even a singular religion, it’s a set of related religions, some of which are incredibly problematic and others the worst they have going for them is they “are technically a religion”
I think the stated purpose of Airbnb is fine, allowing people to rent out their homes for short term while they’re off vacation or something. I think the reality of what actually happens is pretty not okay, people buying properties all over and only ever renting them using Airbnb without ever actually living there and while preventing anyone else from living there
They’re so much quieter, too. Not as easy to notice when you’re the one using the tool, but compare how it sounds to be nearby someone else using one and it’s a biiiig difference
Fun fact fyi, unlike Reddit, post titles are editable on Lemmy

Heard it here first folks, if it’s in a movie, it’s not a war crime any more.
I’ll say that I mostly agree, it’s good to be critical and sceptical, but I do think that defense is well worse than lukewarm. I’d almost say if you treat your prisoners anywhere near as badly as they do in most movies, you’re already well into war crime territory.
Almost as moral as the fullest void is full
Well. I did find that book, but not the story about it. Also, TIL Orson Scott Card is rather a bit of a homophobe.
Whaaaaat!? Grooming? But Humbert isn’t trans? This is just normal behavior, it only becomes wrong when you are already a persecuted minority.

Okay, I think you need to be more specific? I really don’t know what story you’re referring to.
I believe you. I meant more that it “won” conceptually than phonetically. To an American ear it sounds more like “aw” or “ah” than “o”.
Pretty sure “caught” won and “cot” lost in the caught-cot merger. I don’t think most Americans would conceive of it as an “o” sound
White queen has to choose between meeting a king or a bear.
Because it was played twice
It’s totally illegal right up until it suddenly isn’t squatting any more
Wait, wait, wait. You’re telling me people leave their homes?!
Yeah, it’s trans masc instead, but it did give us the very fun trans masc trans mask.
Poop knife.
Fascism, family incapable of driving imperialism.
