Zionists

It's okay, we know you mean Jews.

Is there a reason this article bashes (adjusts glasses, checks) the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance in its opening para?

Jesus. I can from time to time, I used to be a regular on /r/canning. The attention to detail re food safety was one of the best things about the sub, as you really can kill yourself and others if you piss about.

Slightly annoyed about this, as I do use Wordpad (it's lightweight and useful for quick notes that I want to mark up with bold and italic). I don't always want to watch Word or Libreoffice load for twenty to thirty seconds.

Shitty decision, happy to be Wordpad's one fan.

Wasn't the issue with this one that money was changing hands in exchange for a printed, physical book? Like, I know the team wasn't making money, but it's understood in fanfic circles that this is a Bad Idea and this was a very high profile (and, sadly, professional-looking) project.

The work is now on AO3 alongside countless other Star Trek fanfics that exist with no trouble. If they'd done that all along, I suspect there would never have been an issue.

Linehan being attached to something isn't a plus these days...

I feel bad for thinking this headline has everything.

Seems like only yesterday I was co-admining my first public server in 1996.

Fun times.

Some of them have a real thing for saying the Tiananmen Square massacre never happened and there's no evidence, too. I guess I just hallucinated those news reports at the time with screams and gunfire in the background.

I couldn't finish it. Really dreadful.

As a counterpoint, I'd like to mention that people often scream "reading incomprehension" when actually, what they wrote was ambiguous or unclear.

Not saying you do this, just that I see this far more often than I see people misreading anything.

Looking good. Am I remembering right there were no evokers in the first trailer?

Japanese translators hate him!

No, really, they hate him.

Absolutely nobody I know is on Mastodon, and despite my efforts, they won't move because it's "scary" or "bad" or some bizarre shit.

Yes, I'm frustrated.
