Yeah, Rowling has been liking terfy poo poo for a while. It plays well with her faux progressive re-fitting of her series, and it really stinks of deflecting criticism of prejudiced ideas. Unfortunately, some vulnerable young transperson who loves the series will probably see this and retreat further in their shell. The "men in dresses" meme is pretty much exclusively used as a bludgeon against children with the intent of scaring them into the closet.

I have a co-worker who's a terf who idolizes Rowling. Has no idea why I'm so nice to everyone but her. As a form of silent protest I intentionally use the stall next to her every time she's in the restroom. :chord:

Rowling is a blairite that thinks Corbyn is too radical. I think that sums up all her "not 100% poo poo but far from good" intentions outside of her blatant anti transness.

What's the British equivalent of a corn cob? They probably call it a "corny-warny" or "cobber-wobber" or some dumb, sing songy nonsense like that.

Wheatbone, but that's only because of its similarity to a wheatbone. Some say "corn wheatbone" but since wheatbone usually refers to corn in modern usage, the corn part is implied so you can just say wheatbone

I feel like that summary sorta glosses over how the abortion compromise is that nobody gets abortions, and instead you get to scrap your kids for parts only if they're in their teens. Maybe it was written in a time where people thought Trumpcare was going to be a thing, but I have a feeling it's just the dumbest possible take.

Oh no, I brought up how it totally ignores how people have to grow a baby inside them for nine months.

There isn't a court in the land that wouldn't laugh them out of court. They'd probably get a SLAPP counter-suit and hideously lose.

1. The person still owns rights to their information, but reddit was under no obligation to store it indefinitely. It's no different than your usb stick being run through the washer. Keep a backup.

2. Freely published and freely available information has little market value.

3. Advising how to get around legal protections is in and of itself illegal in most jurisdictions.

If I recall he got probation for beating a guy with iron pipe in front of a video camera and a year later he got prison for smuggling meat into Norway because the truck he was driving (without a license) had studded winter tires and those are illegal in Norway.

I was surprised over the staggering amounts of money there was in it for someone able to get a light truck stacked with meat into central Oslo. Maybe local meat is just really expensive.

Yeah, local everything is pretty expensive even compared to our neighboring countries. Norwegians driving across the border to stock up on meat, booze and other cheap goods is a pretty widespread phenomenon.
