@elston_ The "desperate Putin" moniker reeks of propaganda. I vote for "arrested for proselytizing LGBT ideology".

I applaud the anti-LGBT law in principle, but see a lot of possible civil rights problems with enforcement. (Cameras in bedrooms?) The law of Moses had the death penalty - but had to be caught in the act, as with adultery.

@fuknukl @magicalthinking I shared your pic, and people are asking "Which AI?"

@AdamAtSea 50 years ago, it was global cooling that was going to kill us all.

@wy7usa Long enough range to strike "deep" inside Russia from West Ukraine.

An incrementally more vigorous "poke" of the bear, trying to get some monkey making action for the Military Industrial Complex.

@leo This was the motivation behind the law of the Medes (and Chaldees and Persians and Greeks until Antiochus Epiphanes) - the king cannot revoke his own decrees. Even if it was a grave error (see Daniel 6 and Esther 3).

Agnostics can be further divided into at least:

1) soft agnostic - I don't personally know if there is a God or not, but I'm not ruling out the possibility of knowing.

2) hard agnostic - it is impossible in principle to know if there is a God or not. Those who think they do are wrong.

@freemo What I kept hearing with your original joke were the countless Batman sitcom episodes I watched as a child, and Robin would exclaim: "Holy ____ Batman!" Fill in the blank with some especially ludicrous aspect of the story.

@freemo "holy" means "set apart". So unless you have set a particular moley apart for religious purposes - it is an ordinary moley. A moley becomes sacrilegious when a holy (set apart) moley is desecrated, or an ordinary moley is used to mock holy moleys.

@Conan_Kudo @fedora Do these go in an Intel case, say ATX? Power supply leads, screws to fasten to case, front panel lights and switches, would have to be compatible.

@OldAndCranky RFK is pro-vaccine. The issue is that Big Pharma is *replacing* real vaccines with mRNA shots. These have saved 0 lives so far, and killed between 5 and 6 million worldwide. Already, the flu shot this year is no longer an actual vaccine - but a combo of mRNA for old COVID spike protein and a new untested mRNA for a flu spike protein.

My fear is that when my tetanus booster is due - it too will no longer be available.

In a real practical sense, RFK is trying to prevent the removal of vaccines from the market by Big Pharma.

@freemo In the G. K. Chesterton novel "The Napoleon of Notting Hill", the king of England in the future is chosen by random selection from a pool of all eligible citizens.
