This might be the dumbest shit I have read today. Congratulations on that. Maybe just spend this energy not saying stupid shit in the first place?

Except that the word TERF is an acronym that literally includes the word “feminist”. Typically TERFs are women who specifically exclude trans women from women focused organizations and activities. It is a specific thing that does NOT adequately represent what Dawkins is. It is not Linguistic prescriptivism to understand what words mean, even if you are too stupid to understand it.
I understand that in a general sense, but it doesn’t make sense to call literally every anti-trans person a ‘TERF’ when we already have a name for what that is.
I think calling him a TERF is actually giving him too much credit because it implies that he is some sort of feminist (albeit one with a narrow view of femininity) and he isn’t even that. He’s just a bigot.

Everyone thinks that you are supposed to go to the hospital when you are dying as if they are going to like, stop you from dying.
Mostly what they do is make sure that you don’t leave anything behind for your kids to inherit as they spend a million dollars a day keeping you a miserable vegetable for a week.
Once that is done the funeral industry shows up to make sure that you dump the rest into buying a worthless box and digging a hole.

“That is a good question and it merits further explanation. When you made your originally inquiry I determined that the answer you wanted to hear was “yes.” so that is the answer that I provided. Upon further reflection it is clear that your question required a more thoughtful answer. If you would like me to provide more truthful answers in the future, please amend your queries with “no cap” and I will do my best to remember that preference.”

2·17 days agoI hope the operators get to wear like little pins representing their kills, like they are fighter jets.
What shape would the FSB kill pin be? A dagger in the back? A polonium molecule?
EDIT:
Polonium is actually an element and the map looks pretty cool:

That is how you know its a real watch and not some shit that lives in a drawer and gets trotted out for photos.


Its not earth based but Subnautica touches on a those environments quite a bit.
