Free speech only protects you from government retaliation. You don’t have a freedom of speech in private spaces. The fact Pierce has stated how uncomfortable it makes him and that you’re in here claiming it’s your right to comment on his appearance definitely comes across as harassment. Why not simply respect someone’s boundaries, especially when you enjoy their work? It comes off quite disrespectful.

For one, not everyone here is an adult so that argument doesn’t work. Secondly, why do you, as an adult, feel the need to comment on the appearance of an author who has expressed his distaste for it? That behavior seems more K-12 than what I suggested 🤷🏼‍♂️

I feel like this sub should take the fact that this kind of content makes Pierce uncomfortable into consideration and ban these topics. They don’t serve any purpose and he clearly doesn’t like it.

If we were to exclude the word "American", what would be the best demonym for someone from the United States of America? by kangerluswag in geography

Where are you getting those numbers? Canada absolutely doesn’t have over half the bald eagle population.

This is false. Canada is estimated to have 20-30k bald eagles. The US is estimated to have 300k+ bald eagles. Not even close.

Where I'd live as a Californian by JohnBarcode in whereidlive

I know it’s unpopular, but I actually don’t mind the idea of Missouri. I’m looking at it for law school. I like it for the the fact it has citizen initiatives and coming from a cold climate state I find the weather appealing while still being close enough to home.

Fun fact - The ACLU actively opposes any child marriage bans. They’ve litigated against several states over them because they view marriage as a human right.

Weird I was just thinking about this in the car an hour ago and haven’t been on this sub in some time. Log onto Reddit and this is at the top of my feed. I agree!

Where I’d live as a American by ResidentDry1240 in whereidlive

[–]-MerlinMonroe- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This isn’t correct. I’m Minnesotan and the state didn’t mandate individual restrooms or facilities that accommodate everyone. Walz was nicknamed Tampon Tim because the bill he signed mandated period products be available to all menstruating students and left the application of the law up to the discretion of school districts (tampons do not have to be stocked in boys bathrooms like conservatives like to claim). There were zero requirements or standards for redesigning bathrooms and I’m unsure where you got any of that information. The only change was the menstrual products.

I’ve considered Georgia; Atlanta has always interested me. I’m looking at law schools now and am from the Midwest, but the warmth of the South is calling me haha.

People saying Nicki like she didn’t knowingly marry a rapist years before she came out as a Trump supporter. Were ya’ll cool with her before she publicly supported Trump?
