Why would you be pressing down on the keys anyway? Just remove the caps so you can ACTUALLY clean the keyboard.

it’s not great to legally compel people to say things, especially when saying those things is directly in violation of their sense of ethics
Are you aware of how the mandatory reporting laws came into being? It is absolutely fucked up beyond belief. Anyone who doesn't report these sorts of crimes has no ethics.
Ah, yes... tradition! Because the way things have been done is the way they must, should, will be done! Something being wrong is still wrong despite any length of time it has been done.
Hell world is a pretty good description. As can be seen from the events the article is reporting on, organizing and protesting, even at the site of the incident, isn't going to stop anything. They're all; federal, local, whatever; a consortium. Good luck to the resistance...
Looking at the picture, I don't think she did either.
Jesus, that's the answer, isn't it? We've got to stage a hostile takeover of mcdonalds and then make all locations deny service to him.
The prisons that hold death row inmates are not private, for-profit companies. The numbers have been falling steadily and are incredibly low. Still a problem, because that number is high enough to have stupid amounts of influence, but it has nothing to do with death penalty costs. Those are all because we afford death row inmates a large amount of appeals, which costs 'lawyer money' where some prosecuting lawyer pretends he wasn't on a salary and they claim it's worth X hours x Y wage, and the defense attorney does the same but with a little more truth because he is getting paid by the hour.
Yeah, including not paying me for work and expecting gratitude for it. Fuck that.
‘subscription’ vaccines which don’t eradicate the disease but only succeed in helping them mutate every year
Alright... I'm trying to be nice here, but what exactly do you know about vaccines, and more importantly, viruses?
It’s at this point, the close range scans indicate not just some “organic gases” but trillions of organisms , all of them alien, and worst of all, possessing a chirality opposite to your own.
Your immune system and their pathogens, and your pathogens, are wholly incompatible. You touch anything, you get sick and die, and they get sick and die.
Organisms on earth use right handed chirality without issue. Even humans manipulate some. Eating an alien would probably go poorly, but interacting with one (all you mass effect fans out there can lose the burgeoning boners, creeps, I mean in something as light as a 'handshake scenario') wouldn't be some terrible biological curse. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10851380/ I'm trying to scratch my head to remember because it's been a while, but I think there are archaebacteria that use the D forms even more than the normal incorporation into peptidoglycan. It's not a death sentence.
Also, the worst bears can do is maul you to death on the spot. The worst men can do is rape, torture, and maim you for weeks before killing you.
Damn, all that fanfiction I read from brother bear is just crumbling...
Yep.
Good, good, definitely
Absolutely, love it!
Oh my god, yes!
...uh... looks around lemmy

uh oh.
