People want their answers to be simple. In this case, if you can say there’s a good side and a bad side in a conflict, you can pretend that verbally supporting the good side no matter what is good, moral praxis.

Does this mean I do the deleting, then clear my cache, then log out and in, then turn sync off and on? Do I have to do this across multiple devices? Like, I’ve never found a method to log out of Google entirely on my phone, so I could do the whole process on my computer, but I may still have a phone cache?

Thank you for sharing. Identity issues are no joke, I’m having to unpack a larger amount of gender baggage than the average person (think decades-worth of AGAB plus another decade or two of a career stereotypical to and gate-kept by the other gender).

This is the military in a nutshell. It ostensibly needs to protect the nation, but civilian industries exist as a result, whose executives have generals in their pockets. If the industry no longer serves the needs of the military, then the military should stop using it; but that doesn’t reduce the plight of a worker who would become unemployed as a result. Who suffers from this tension? Every taxpayer who isn’t an executive or a general with a cushy retirement job, but especially workers and average servicemembers.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure they’re classified because we are responsible for whatever it is. At the very least, we are closely tracking whichever power is making it happen. I don’t think declassifying this stuff is a good idea.

Nothing is wrong with programming socks. But that will be a sure sign of women in the room.

The only person I heard “omnisexual” used for was Captain Jack Harkness. So now I have questions. (Funny: Tell me about the aliens you’ve met and flirted with. Serious: What does that word mean to you?)

Democrats argue that beating Trump and enacting progressive policies requires electing Democrats first.

They’re still arguing that? We’ve been waiting for the Dems to enact progressive policies for the past two years. It turns out that if you want progressive policies, you actually have to elect progressives.
