It is progressive, even if some of the backers are fascists (let's face it all parties have a couple).

It's just stupid to do so in a two-horse race where the stakes of actual fascism is high.

Yes and No. You could argue that True Love was the factor between them

It's 1995!
And, now that I'm older,
stress weighs on my shoulders

I think mob rule as a moderation system is bad, and having a few power-users in charge is not the worst answer to that.

In my head: you'd have small web of trusts (I can vouch for you, you can vouch your friend, your friend can vouch for me, I must be somewhat trustworthy), and these webs would have some kind of voting power over flagged comments. Of course, that can be gamed...

It's hard to refuse someone who on the surface is just being friendly, and who might take your rejection as a harsh assault on their fragile personality.

I think just try to communicate to him that he's distracting you from work. He might not actually realise.

If he can't be reasoned with, then maybe yes go to HR

This joke hasn't aged well. I took it as is and just assumed the Dad put together a micro PC with a PS2 emulator on it, and then I stared at the article for 5 minutes looking for the punchline.

At first I thought you meant it'd be a bad fork, but then I realise you meant it'd be a bad fork.

As long as it's open source and vetted by the public, I don't see how it could go bad tbh

Life will pound you into an uncaring jaded disinterested unloveable husk of a being after too many emotional scars from losing loved ones, too much of seeing humanity make the same mistakes, and too much watching the knowledge you gained turned irrelevant.

Or, life will beat into you an uncanny ability to converse and relate to others, even if fleetingly.

Watch The Man from Earth.
