And who the fuck crowned MBFC the kings of based unbiased-ness?
Oh I completely agree with you and my comment wasn’t meant for their eyes. It was simply my subjective assessment of that sentiment. I’m well aware those chucklefucks would see things differently. It’s why they’re Proud Boys after all.
“23% of Proud Boys and 30% of militia supporters said that violence (which we defined as “physical force strong enough that it could cause pain or injury to a person”) was usually or always justified ‘to stop people who do not share my beliefs from voting’”
How absolutely un-American.
I have bad news for you: Nobody is here to fulfill your expectations.
If you don’t understand that anyone you have a conversation with can and will tell other people then I don’t know how you tie your shoes.
“Aww we can’t say hateful things in DMs without worrying about it still getting out.” 😭😭😭😭
I’ve no better answer than “It just isn’t done.” Native English speakers at the very least would not interpret that as indicating the letter, they would interpret it as someone stuttering or what they’re trying to say is stuck on the tip of their tongue.

I’m 33. Joined up during the APIcalypse and ensuing exodus from Reddit.
Now I feel old because my childhood was basically over before Reddit was born. Am I already old at 33? Gross!
Save WHAT? The gas station takes their bit so I can get to work. The grocery store takes their bit so I can eat to have energy to work, and so I can feed my child. The phone company takes their bit so my boss can keep in touch with me when they want to. The insurance companies take their bits so I can say that I’m insured and have the right to drive, and to put myself deeper in medical debt if anything goes wrong. The landlord takes his bit so I can have a roof over my head. Disney takes their bit so my kid can have her favorite movies and shows on demand because that’s one thing I can give her. And now my coin purse is empty until my employer gives me my bit again. Where do the savings come from, oh wise one?
Thank goodness a hater is here to tell me what not to like!
They should just reach out to him on Cameo and offer him $100 to read a sentence acknowledging receipt of the notice, it’s a flawless plan.

Just like I wouldn’t know for decades the fact that I grew up with autism that was undiagnosed until 32 years old, was sexually assaulted at 10, and at the direction of the cult my parents raised me in was beaten regularly resulting in CPTSD, all of which I’m still unwrapping in therapy every week. I still push through the pain and the anguish because life is beautiful and it’s my choice every day to continue.
The one thing I thank my parents for above all else is for having me and giving me the choice to push through that pain every single day. Not comparing situations at all but I’ll be there for my kid every single day of their journey and - if they should look me in the eye and tell me it’s all too painful then I will help them find a way to make it easier or make it stop. To insinuate I should have just given up at some point is just defeatist, pessimistic, and wrong. No child had a choice in coming into this world. We all have to deal with the cards we’ve been dealt and the choice to put them down should lie with ourselves as the individual alone and no one else.
My wife had an otherwise completely heathy and normal pregnancy that ended in an “unexplainable” premature birth at 25 weeks 4 days gestation, resulting in a baby born at 930 grams who stayed in the NICU for 100 days and now at 22 months she is reaching or exceeding the health benchmarks for full-term babies her age. The power of modern medicine grows every year. It has come a very long way even in the past 10. The doctors told us there was absolutely nothing we could’ve done differently and I certainly hope my child doesn’t come to me in 20 years and tell me that they’d rather we just gave up.

According to the article, customers who had refunds of $10 or more that got delayed received payouts of at least $150 in addition to the fine so it seems like at least this time the customers were made whole.
