@broadwaybabyto "I'd like to request a second opinion from a non-misogynistic doctor who doesn't immediately assume I'm a moron."

Alternately: "I suppose it's possible that, during my hysterectomy, the surgeon extracted the wrong organ. Based on your capability as a doctor, mistakes like that are probably extremely common."

@exador23 It can't be an emergency if it was an obvious outcome, then it's just blatant negligence. They're scrambling to implement blatant negligence procedures.

@VeroniqueB99 Shouldn't it be East Russia? It's closer that way.

@br00t4c I wonder when Obama will apologise for not doing it when he said he would.

@ErickaSimone @shanselman Some of us knew that. I recall a Twitter interaction with one guy who legitimately thought he was actually contributing real engineering expertise at SpaceX when the reality is that there's an entire cadre of underlings who try desperately to keep him away from anything important.

@octade I give it a low chance of working, but it's simple enough to be worth trying to block the domain name *

@ProPublica What defines a private school if it isn't the source of funding? Surely a school that receives public funds is, by definition, a public school.

@sj Is that why Trump won?

@selzero @DebErupts I thought it was $44 million, am I remembering wrong?

@DebErupts @selzero At least buying the UK costs more than Twitter.

@tankgrrl Yeah, I got off there when I learned about the whole Joe Rogan antivax thing they were giving millions of dollars to. I *had* thought most people were doing that too, but I got really disappointed about a year ago when I discovered that almost everyone had stopped boycotting them almost immediately. Mostly I listen on youtube (not that Google's much better) and buy FLAC files more or less direct from the artist if they have them available.

@broadwaybabyto So, if I understand this right, after your doctor lied to you about your chances of catching a debilitating and deadly airborne disease in a facility that concentrates sick people, they essentially told you to go kill yourself? That doctor needs to have their medical license revoked. Maybe they can go work in a morgue and deal with everyone they sent there.

Pro tip: if you're concerned that being inclusive and accepting of diversity will alienate portions of your community, stop and realise that *not* being inclusive and accepting of diversity will *also* alienate portions of your community. It's not a choice between alienating a portion of your community or not, but a choice of *which* portions of your community you're going to alienate.

Then also realise that, if you decide not to alienate Nazis, you become a Nazi.

@http_error_418 @michaelgemar @916253 After millennia of human ingenuity, the mortality rate for life remains at 100%.

@CarlG @GreenFire @dougiec3 @Wileymiller @BruceMirken Really, though, those reporters should be afraid of losing their audience. Someone should make a list of every reporter that gave Trump a softball interview, didn't press for any answer or call him out on bullshit. Then someone should make a browser add-on that detects whether an article is written by someone on that list and blocks it.

@LibrarianRA I wonder what percentage of old advertising slogans now come off as thinly veiled threats.

@ned "Here's the answer, it's obvious, how did you not realise it?"
"Ok, but that's not a *good* answer because it means we don't get to exploit employees anymore."

No, LibreOffice spell check, that's definitely what it's supposed to be. Why, what are your suggestions?

Uh, what? Those are definitely not things. (ok, the second one *might* be, but it's definitely not used much)

@gwynnion The Democrats have a playbook of some kind, in the event of X do Y. This must be drilled into freshmen congresspeople so hard that they start believing that everyone follows the same playbook and become confused when they don't. This playbook hasn't been updated since sometime around 1960, and then probably just to remove the part about Black people not being allowed to be Democrats.

@fkamiah17 @dgar Season finale? Series finale, more like. Actually, at this point it's more like a season finale of your favourite show that you're almost hoping might be the series finale because it feels like it probably should have been cancelled a couple seasons ago and now they're starting some ill-conceived time travel plot pushing the setting back 70 years.
