  • From an outsider’s perspective, the whole affair just really brings home how much the US is an empire that can bomb anyone, anywhere in the world, at a moment’s notice. Often with collateral damage.

    Y’all are mad the current US administration are bumblefucks. We’re mad that there’s even such a concentration of power for bumblefucks to be at the helm of to begin with.

    The US-led order was always going to be a risk to the rest of the world if you never shaped up your electoral process. Which you haven’t.

    :(





  • Luckily for you that’s the iso standard haha

    I wouldn’t mind if it could be kept on the same line, but I don’t believe there is a non-breaking hyphen in unicode.

    You can insert non-breaking hyphens into MS Office programs like word though. Very useful if you’re an engineer and writing out tags in reports all the time (and dislike when they get broken across lines).

    The actual print character is a normal hyphen, though.

    Thanks for reading my pedantic preferences haha













  • Decriminalised use/possession, for sure.

    But I always think the libertarian “just legalise all the drugs” is just odd.

    Regulated? So you mean preventing people from taking really stupid shit? Sounds great sign me up lol

    People gotta accept there are trade-offs to living in a society, and one of those is that there’s a limit to which we allow each other to get high. Because there are some drugs that make people aggressive, and I personally think these ought to be curtailed where possible. (Again, not a “war on drugs” style curtailment. But distribution, still illegal and criminal)

    You wanna take shit like meth? Cool, go out to the woods and never use socialised medicine where workers are at risk from people on such drugs, or just randoms walking down the street.

    I don’t think taking hard drugs should put you in prison, or even give you a criminal record, but actually legalising the distribution? Nah. Go live in the woods/hills away from everyone else.
