Sorry, I don't even use it myself, so I don't know. :ablobsigh:

I think there is a way to shut those off in your home feed and only show original toots.

@laura_canil

As a visual learner, I appreciate good illustrations. Thank you for your contributions to science.

@auldlangsin

I hope you recover okay. What kind of mask was it?

@peterdrake

Generally, I think transparency is better for a community, so I think it is better to make everything public unless you need something to be private for some reason.

>"P.S.: I'm strictly talking about anal sex between two men. Not oral sex and or sex between two women. I don't know about those cases and I don't know if the current evidence can't be generalized."

Then, are you saying that two men who love each other and butt fuck each other and interpret the Quran in a way that they believe it allows them to do that, that they are not Muslims?

>'"I think eating strawberry jce cream is wrong so i dont eat it, but other people shoukd be allowed to choose for themselves what they do as lobg as they dobt make me eat strawberry ice cream"

Thats fine.'

It's fine as long as the ice cream isn't produced by enslaving someone, forcing them to produce it, and having their babies taken away and slaughtered to make veal.

@admitsWrongIfProven @farooqkz @BobKerns @tonic

@farooqkz

Are you saying that people who are of the same sex who love each other and have sex together and believe that Islam allows them to do that, that they are not true Muslims?

How about, "Stay home and use video conference instead."

>"Of course, the location of most of these foreign embassies (Washington D.C.) means that the politicians responsible for prohibition were not themselves without access to alcohol. Some things don’t seem to change."

This same sort of thing would happen if they tried to prohibit guns. Only the politicians and the wealthy would have them.

@torq

It's like the complement of a backhanded compliment.

@shuttersparks

They'll get my mask when they pry it from my cold dead face.

@Deglassco

I haven't seen A Bronx Tale or Monster's Ball yet. I looked them up and the latter sounds like an especially well written and acted film.

I thought of a couple more. One of my favorite films, Cloud Atlas (qoto.org/@Pat/1085234470913944), Mississippi Masala (1991), and of course Guest Who's Coming to Dinner which was released contemporaneously with the Loving decision.
