I have MAGA family members and it’s not just 1+1=5. It’s a word-vomit tsunami of absolute bullshit. And if you convince them that point 1/367 is not factual, they won’t accept that it disqualifies anything else (including the idea that he never tells lies), and you will have to re-prove that point 1/367 is not factual a few weeks later. It’s exhausting, and I’m fairly sure that is the point (and I’m fairly sure this is also an actual Russian propaganda technique called a “firehose of falsehoods”, regardless of whether it’s being used in that context).

I’m in that age group. Kids had vhs and magazines. IMO the faces of death vhs going around was more scarring than any porn.

I always wondered if the push against face masks had some element involved that wanted to ensure everyone could be identified more easily.

That worked, thanks! Had to paste that into the search bar and it popped right up.

Is the invite still valid? FluffyChat is throwing an error about a null value and displaying a yellow rectangle with an X across it. I’m not too familiar with FluffyChat, so I’m not sure if it’s something I’m doing or an invalid invite.
