I think that a good chunk of the selfhosted community is “sole IT guy at a tiny company”. This is great for that, since having to update desktop software in twenty places sucks.

That’s easy to fix. Just randomize it. Flip a coin to see which side faces up.

during times of crisis, people buy toilet paper

Well yes. How else would you clean the fan when shit hits it?

I was disappointed when this didn’t turn into satire.

I’m arguing that there IS clear evidence otherwise. The fact that they’re not acting in a way that is consistent with the belief that life begins at conception is a problem. And saying that they don’t understand their own belief is much nicer than saying that they’re horrible people who let death happen when they could have stopped it.

And I think the point of these discussions is to exactly fix your final point. To iron out the inconsistencies and find the truth.

abortion as equivalent to murder

They don’t believe that. They think they believe that, but they don’t. The frozen embryo in the fire question proves this. The fact that they aren’t actively killing abortion doctors proves this.

Got a recommendation? I’m in

I’m trying to figure out why anyone is alarmed that I want to head to the check-out lane

You already provided a whole list of people that should check out before you do. Why would anyone want you gone when the horrible fuckers aren’t going anywhere?

They’re not errors. They are expected deviations from reality. And if you fix them, YOU are wrong.

Showing intent is always the start

I hate how few people got it. I thought it was obvious, funny, and topical.

Why do people assume that shit hits the fan quickly?

Trump’s impact will have years if not decades of fallout.
