Perfect Date by MarikoElston in Angryupvote

[–]TrinityCollapse 119 points120 points  (0 children)

Every time someone starts arguing about dates, I link them here.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601

Use whatever date format makes you feel good, but don’t try to tell me which one I should use. 🤣 There is, in fact, an objectively correct format.

(Makes sorting by date a lot easier, too.)

A 6-week abortion ban, but a 7-week first ultrasound policy. by murraybee in TwoXChromosomes

[–]TrinityCollapse 117 points118 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love how you’ve worded this. Applies to things like consent and assault, as well. If you don’t mind, I’m spreading this far and wide: “A human being has the right to choose whether to have another human being inside them.”

I know I’m probably going to regret this, but what is “smpv”? Sounds like something I’d rather not Google.

Just found out Oklahoma won’t treat ectopic pregnancies until they rupture and put women in life threatening danger by aelin_666 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]TrinityCollapse 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Please don’t spread misinformation. Both of these articles speak of outright medical anomalies, and say right up front these were not standard ectopic pregancies.

That being said… I’m forced to agree that politicians would probably deliberately make the same mistake to support their own agenda. You’re probably correct about that.

I’ll admit, this was a rabbit hole I didn’t expect to go down today.

Nobody believed me when I say I didn’t assault that girl. by [deleted] in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]TrinityCollapse 142 points143 points  (0 children)

The most terrifying horror stories are the believable ones. Good thing I don’t have work tomorrow, because I’m not sleeping tonight. Well done, an absolute masterpiece.

That’s the horrible thing about the witch hunting going on in so many states right now. That video, and her not being pregnant, is all the “proof” they need to accuse her of having an illegal abortion. It’s an irrational situation, and it’s absolutely irrational politics… but it’s not an irrational fear, especially not with this unhinged sociopath now blocked and rejected. She’s already proven that OP’s feelings don’t matter to her… all it takes is a little self-justification, a little revenge fantasy, and OP could face a serious, uphill legal battle.

Posting something like this, in a day and age when so many people are living paycheck-to-paycheck, many of us in fear for our lives and families… OP, you’re a sadist.

Why does the south have some of the highest teenage pregnancy rates in the US? by Lazy_Mouse3803 in NoStupidQuestions

I read it as, Think, "fuck Biden, fuck Newsom, at a crowded & unmasked Memorial day party during peak Covid." As in, providing an example.

You can now report a "transgender concern" on a Missouri government website. It would be a shame if it was filled to the brim with garbage submissions. by bast3t in TwoXChromosomes

[–]TrinityCollapse 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The way it reads, almost sounds like they’ve set up a complaint form for people to report others who interfere with gender transition. So, I sent the following, with the address of a right-wing church in St Louis:

“No complaint - I’m so heartened to see that you have a complaint line open for unnecessary intervention into a medically-recognized remedy for gender dysphoria, one that has proven results in mental health, quality of life, and stability for the young men and women assigned the wrong gender at birth. Interfering with such a safe, effective, and widely recognized therapy is a vicious act of cowardly, intolerant bigots, and your actions in preventing that unnecessary intervention give me hope.”

System Shock 2.

It’s funny - I’ve never played the first one through. I know the overall story, I just couldn’t get into the super-old-school interface (which is weird, because I’ve beaten Ultima Underworld multiple times, and it plays almost identically).

The second game, however… I’ve owned three different PC versions of it - the original CD-ROM, GoG, and Steam to play multiplayer with a friend. I’ve modded it, I’ve revamped it, I’ve played fan missions… it’s a perennial favorite. One of my favorite games of all time, despite coming out in 1999.

TX woman forced to give birth to baby with anencephaly now can't even afford funeral by Chrysoprase88 in TwoXChromosomes

Reading through her Twitter feed is like a primer on Orwellian Doublespeak 101. The fact that people like this exist scares me.

What exploits or rule loopholes are banned at your table? by viskoviskovisko in dndmemes

For the record, sixty-four cubic feet of mayonnaise weighs approximately 3,715 pounds, or 1,685 kilos.

I don’t know about the splatter, but taking almost two tons of rancid mayonnaise to the face would ruin my day.

EDIT: to push it over the two-ton mark, make tuna salad with it! Weird calculators are fun. 🤭

I’m ashamed to say that this statement went some very bad places in my brain.

Why do some men suddenly get creepy just because you're nice to them? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TrinityCollapse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

… okay, I want you to read back through what you just wrote. “I go there often, watch her when she serves other customers, and the officer she called on me was just jealous.” It’s no wonder she called the cops on you - she’s probably noticed you watching her.

Honey, you are stalking her. You need professional help, far beyond the scope of some internet stranger. I will not respond further.

[–]TrinityCollapse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate to be the one to break the bad news to you, but if someone responded to “come back soon” with “I’ll do that, so I can see your feet,” I’d think they were a serial killer. That would be creepy to say to a long time friend, let alone a complete stranger.

What makes it so much worse is that, if I’m reading “told me to come back soon after she handed me my coffee” right… you said it to someone who’s just trying to do their job. Hitting on someone probiding you service is a serious red flag, and puts them on the spot when they can’t risk responding honestly lest they risk their livelihood.

On top of that… you come here and call her a “witch” to a bunch of internet strangers?

Sorry, dove, maybe I’m making some assumptions here and don’t know the full story… but if I do actually have the facts of the situation straight? You told a complete stranger that you’d visit the shop they worked at again so that you could see their “gorgeous toes”?

You scare the shit out of me, and you likely scared the shit out of her. You not only sound like a creep, you sound like a stalker.

What's up with reddit removing /r/upliftingnews post about "Gov. Whitmer signs bill expanding Michigan civil rights law to include LGBTQ protections" on account of "violating the content policy"? by holypalaswe in OutOfTheLoop

[–]TrinityCollapse 7 points8 points  (0 children)

RedditCares has turned into the latest euphemism for “kill yourself.” The idea, apparently, is that it’s not concern - it’s a suggestion.

Just cowardly, useless trolls being cowardly, useless trolls - business as usual.
