Correct, but the weather is overcast enough to significantly reduce effective UV exposure. Thankfully most people get enough vitamin D from their diet that it’s unlikely to cause serious health issues. Unless you’re vegan. Vegetarians and pescatarians are fine though.

medical terms are now no longer medical terms and just purely an insult

Language drifts over time, that’s normal, always has been. Stay on target soldier. FORMAL language however needs very strict definitions or it just stops working. Words mean things is true. That still doesn’t mean you get to say the “R” word.

Self-defence. They’ve harmed us all once, they will strive to do it again, and they cannot be rehabilitated. They could never be trusted to rejoin society, or even to socialize among themselves. Given the remaining alternative of perpetual solitary confinement execution would actually likely be more humane.

What I’m hearing is laws are threats made by the dominant socioeconomic-ethnic group in a given nation?

Indian caste system backs slowly into the bushes

There’s nothing intrinsically bad or “archaic” about forums. It’s the forum platforms that sucked for some people. It took some thought and work to manage a forum. The only advantage a Discord server had was that it’s simple enough, a brain damaged squirrel could run one. It saved you from having to do your homework and just created a simple plug-and-play space that required no skill on the owner/mods part.

Banned for “hate speech” for telling an American propagandist to get his American propaganda out of my country. Apparently Reddit is helping with the effort to destabilize and invade Canada.

Not sure if Stoat does audio rooms, but I know you can use SonoBus for that

I want to remind you, several Fox News hosts, as well as numerous Republican congress critters are Harvard Alumni. “Elite intuition” is by definition an institution for economic elites, who predominantly are Republicans, most of whom support everything Trump is doing. I don’t approve of any attack on education, but Ivy League schools have always been more about forming insider networks of nepotism and cronyism than education so I will have to say this meme doesn’t land very hard.

I know plenty of older Gen X who’ve turned into pearl clutching, curmudgeonly hypocrites and even a few younger folks who’ve developed early onset “get off my lawn” syndrome. While I’ll certainly grant that it seems to be far more common among older folks it’s a mindset we all can fall into if we’re not self aware enough.

Hell I know more than a few joyless Gen Z’s who already have fallen into the habit of being utterly scandalized whenever they see someone enjoying life a bit too much. Not all by a longshot yet, but a concerning amount for ones so young.

Unfortunately the old farts on social media were once the teens being treated like criminals for existing. It’s a cycle. Yesterday’s rebels become tomorrow’s pearl clutchers.
