Hi friends, I have a question for you out there. What is it like to drive an awesomely fast sports car. Like a Porsche or Ferrari or Lamborghini? My question is more about the accelerator pedal. Is it more sensitive? Or does it depress a further distance than your typical Ford or Buick would? How do you control the speed around town if the machine is built to go so much faster so much more quickly than your average daily driver?

Thanks for indulging me.

There has been quite a surge of sports on the ‘net as of lately. I do wonder why that is?

What is meant by:

In a Threads post, Zuckerberg took a light jab at Twitter while optimistically predicting that Threads could become the first online public square that attracts a billion users

Doesn’t Facebook already have more than 1 billion users?

Alright you caught me in a good mood, so I’ll throw some articles out here to explain my line of thinking. I hope you’ll see I’m not arguing with strawmen.

Article from October of last year describing right wing outrage to drag shows.

Fast forward to recent months and it appears that words have turned to action, in the form of legislation

I believe some else mentioned the Paradox of Tolerance, but I will link it again just in case you missed it.

I hope this clears up my line of thinking. No invisible boogymen here - just some examples of,
In my opinion, things changing for the worst. And if you were not arguing in good faith… oh well.

I just took a peek at that user’s profile. Saw what magazines they moderate. Not surprised we have a different point of view.

The far-right brings messages of hate, violence, intolerance, and attempts to pass legislation to justify their views. The far-left has brought us the weekend, the 40 hour work week, child labor laws, etc…
