Trump's War on the First Amendment

[canpakes]

They banned Dr. Seuss for godsakes. So no, whatever man. Big whatever man.

‘They’ being the Dr. Seuss Company, who has the right to discontinue publishing 6 of their own books - or whatever else they own - for whatever the reason.

That you’re complaining about this, sort of shoots your whole rant right in the foot.

The pattern of imagining things that are not there........

It happens quite a bit and it creates a significant number of challenges.

To extend some grace and shelve all of the possibilities that have various degrees of bad intent, how is someone supposed to reply to something that only exists in someone else's head?

AI? Just kiddin.

Do the dastardly thing and point out the assumptions. Also, offer tissues for the tears.

Did you imagine a complaint? Try reality, ding dong.

The reality that you got caught trying to push a bit of disinformation again?

You know it, cupcake. : )

Can we get rid of the socks around this place? We've only got one of each kind, not even pairs. How about the AI issue? I thought Shades ruled against using AI except in AI dedicated threads. Did I misunderstand?

Wtheck is going on in this place?

Oh no, Jersey Girl, the socks don’t match. Tragic. Someone call Fashion Police. As for AI, don’t worry — it’s only dangerous when it types better than the people crying about it.

What’s going on? Same thing as always: people whining about rules they don’t understand and socks they don’t own. Thanks for the update, though. Real crisis averted.

Oh shut up and pull yourself together.

We ain’t doing this, moderator.

Your lies and imagination are not interesting. Start a thread elsewhere if your intent is only to play pretend gotchya with your imaginary details.

I see three valid options:

You take your derails and imagination to an alternative thread

I tell you to autocopulate off

I ignore you.


Do you have a preference?

Look at you, trying to disinvite folks after being caught trying to pass along disinformation.

I guess that it got you worked up enough to forget that you’re just about the only person in the board’s history to use the spelling, ‘gotchya’.

The whiskey is making you sloppy, Binger.

Well look at that. 28 instances of "Gotchya" since 2021...and every single one authored by Whiskey, Binger, Cultellus, and one random Mayan Elephant sock. So... Just one single poster...

I suspected this - good to have it confirmed, though.

It must be boring down there in his Mom's basement, hour after hour ...

With Res in the crosshairs? No. I don't want to do that to him, and I don't think he deserves to have it done to him.

Lastly, I would never offer Res tissues, but I would be willing to extend an ear and/or be available to him for a hug, should the opportunity present itself.
