In other words, this asshat thinks that 1-year-olds should be forced to carry a pregnancy to term.

The Big Mac set in Japan is ¥750 right now.

And Burger King is even cheaper.

It baffles my mind that people would pay $18 USD for that shit. I visited the US last year and while prices in general had definitely gone up since the last time I was there, there is absolutely no justification to pay $18 for McDonald's. It's crazy.

Crybaby fascist Republicans: "Cake shops shouldn't have to do business with people they don't like!!!"

Also crybaby fascist Republicans: "Disney should have to do business with me no matter what I say or do!!!"

I can't wait to see Disney counter-sue these fuckers for this ridiculousness.

Those were the really fun days of the internet.

When surfing the web was actually an adventure and you'd actually discover things.

Not that I could ever go back to dial up speeds, but damn those days were fun.

What infuriates me about articles like this is that it really should just say that the school Satanic Club had its first meeting, the kids had a great time, here's everything they did and what they plan to do for the year, and here are some kids' reactions and quotes about the club.

Instead, it says the kids had "a great time" and then moves on to the protesters, offering them several paragraphs to spew their vile hate speech, repeating the garbage that their hate-filled signs say, and then even quoting two people. And then it follows that with basically an advertisement for "the Good News club, a Christian evangelical Bible club that meets before school hours."

It's a sign of how biased society is towards religion that an article about a non-theistic after school club gives half of the article to a handful of religious bigots to let them spew their hate speech and then promotes their own Christian school club.

Hi all.

I've got an old server PC that I use as a home server. Since my IP address sometimes changes due to my internet provider, I've been using DuckDNS and this DuckDNS crontab to keep the IP address up to date. But I've been having issues with DuckDNS not working reliably lately, and I thought that since I have a couple of domain names that I'm not using, I might try using one of those instead.

Problem is, I don't know where to start, either to get the domain pointing to my IP address, or to keep it updated when my provider changes my IP address.

Does anyone know of a guide that can walk me through this?

Why the fuck do people let Trump get away with shit that no ordinary person would get away with.

Imagine if we used this same bullshit logic for ordinary people.

"Murderers shouldn't be stopped by police. We should defeat them in polls."

"Car thieves shouldn't be arrested. We should let the American people choose."

Fucking dumb.

And incidentally, we already did that, in 1868 when the 14th amendment was passed. So leaving it up to the polls is ignoring both the law and the will of the people.

I'm not asking to be snarky or anything... I'm subbed to plenty of magazines that I enjoy reading.

It's just that the front page has the "random magazines" section, and the top bar is full of a seemingly random list of unrelated magazines... and 99% of what shows up in these two places is just empty. They seem like magazines that were made as placeholders and have been sitting empty for 6 months.

These two spots seem like prime real estate that should be filled with useful subs; or at least that magazines under a certain threshold ought to be filtered out of these locations to keep them relevant.

Or am I missing something?

It utterly boggles the mind that it's legal to sell homeopathic products. The word scam comes to mind, but it's so much worse than that because it's a scam that doesn't merely do nothing; it actually causes harm by confusing people and causing general distrust of actual treatments.

Labeling doesn't help either. Apparently the FTC understands the general public is dumb enough that we need "don't drink this" labels on bleach, but they credit them with being able to see through the confusing mumbo-jumbo that homeopathic products put on their labels to disguise the fact that it's just water.

Is there a list of Hamas' demands published somewhere? Cause I don't see it in the article...

I'm genuinely curious as to whether it's an achievable list of demands vs ludicrous posturing that has no chance of ever being met.

So... you want the job to get done, but you don't want anyone to be happy that the job got done?

I mean, if you inherit a billion dollars, that's more money than you will ever earn in several lifetimes of actual work... so yeah.

I feel like most things conservatives want can easily be explained by their consistent desire to harm women.
