Yeah, because - as everyone clearly knows - one's propensity to enjoy sucking cock can be determined directly from their profile picture on any given social media site.

Brilliant.

While I definitely get it and don't disagree in the slightest, I also would just like to point out that upon seeing the film (even at what most people would probably consider way too young an age lol) did I ever think that Bill's plan to make himself a new skin by murdering and sewing together the skin of his victims was being portrayed as an accepted, reasonable path toward gender reassignment... I mean, dude is literally what you would expect to see pictured on the Wikipedia article for 'crackhead serial killing psycho' lol I feel like that should be one of your first indicators that a character isn't like a 'good dude' or something. 😋

In all seriousness, tho, it trips me out that there are absolutely people out there who would be more than happy to engage in the mental gymnastics necessary to twist reality into whatever fucked up pretzel they need to push their narrative.

“They’re saying: we don’t care about your feelings for our chatbot and you should not have had them in the first place.”

It's a bit eerie, honestly, watching someone so very close to getting it and yet so very far away at the exact same time...

Not to undermine your point just to make a joke or anything, but... "" sounds exactly like "" presents itself and you don't choose "Shapiro sounds exactly like Obama" ? 🙃

I mean, we've long known these are the same thing... Right?

Being real, the only weird part of the story is that he told it where and when he did.

Also being real, those are pretty fucking important things to be aware of and take into account before you tell a story... I mean, it would probably be frowned upon for you to stand up to give a toast at someone's wedding and abruptly launch into a speech about being molested by your uncle when you were 13, yeah?

And you're right, he wasn't fucking the rabbits himself... Apparently he just likes to watch. But it's whatever, I don't kink shame 🤷‍♂️ You do you, animal voyeur senator

I'm sorry, I just still don't understand why anyone is allowing themselves to be intimidated by a dementia ridden, lame duck president (one who just so happens to bear the distinction of being the single least popular person to ever hold the office, btw) who notably was never able to win an election against another man...

plus more.

Like... what? You can't just say that like that and then not at least characterize the 'more' in some fashion...

Maybe the internet truly is... No Country for Old Men...

 

So, I recently attempted to use this cheap little bluetooth keyboard/trackpad combo that I have in conjunction with Liftoff and encountered an issue rendering it essentially unusable. Unfortunately, I don't have any other BT input devices to test with to check if it's just some sort of wonkiness between this particular one and Liftoff, but I did try it with another device and other apps on the same phone without issue, so I'm reasonably sure it's not a hardware problem at least.

At any rate, the issue I'm seeing manifests when you have a textbox selected in Liftoff and attempt to input text via a bluetooth keyboard - Every keystroke appears to try to close the on-screen keyboard, which the Liftoff app apparently isn't cool at all with, as it immediately tries to reopen it again. This causes the screen to bounce up and down like crazy, which could still be workable (assuming a sufficient level of confidence in your typistry) if it didn't also cause things to bog down and lose the odd character here and there, as well.

Has anyone else run into this issue? Or perhaps have a fix even? Cuz I've kinda reached the bounds of my troubleshooting expertise as far as bluetooth and bluetooth accessories are concerned and I'm out of ideas.
