I appreciate that freespeech here is one word, as if it’s branded or not the same thing as free speech.

I don’t know if you created that portmanteau but I will be using that now, thank you.

  1. Get one of the dispensers with the large jug.
  2. Only allow the kids to drink at the dispenser so any spills are contained to a designated area that can be kept clear. Use small paper cups to further limit the amount of possible spilled water.

Those concerns were comically easy to address. I really expected it to be more about the kids using water or bathroom breaks to run out the clock and avoid the math practice, which you have to address on more of a case by case basis.

I wonder what the lead and cadmium content of the transphobic chocolate is. I assume all of their products are low quality as the grift seems to be to make a version of whatever the latest Woke Item is. I don’t know if there are that many buyers for this, but I interpret their mindset to be more like sports or idol group fans who buy lots of merch to show what a fan they are. The quality is not the primary concern. Just, in this case, what they’re primarily concerned with is signaling is that they’re a fan of the imperialist white supremacist capitalist patriarchy.

Love to all my trans comrades. You deserve a world much better than this, and I have learned so much from listening to trans people and am so thankful for your existence. I can only recognize transphobic dog whistles for what they are because of what I have learned from my comrades on Hexbear and elsewhere. While I’m just one person, I am doing my best to make it known that my friends and family that they cannot be transphobic without getting an ear full from me. I’ve been really disappointed in the ones who have chosen to be Treat Defenders instead of allies, but it also makes me feel like I’ve made the right choice in not telling them I’m not straight. Thankfully most of my friends are on the same page, and I can be open with them, but I worry that I can’t trust my family anymore.

Yeah, I want citations on these claims. Screenshots of her posts and what sounds like the most inane “bullying” by internet standards probably wouldn’t make her look good though so I doubt we’ll get them. Hell, I consider “:logout:, dumbass” to be downright polite.

Not only are they terribly distracting but most of them are really just bullying us because insecurities seem to be a really effective way to move product. Most of what I see these days is some variation of you’re fat, ugly, poor, dumb, lonely, etc. Regardless of the truth of those descriptors, constant exposure to bullying like this is making us all worse off. It really should be something we don’t allow in public spaces, and pointing the harm done by the proliferation of ads out to those who have grown accustomed to the background noise is good.

I can neither confirm, nor deny these accusations at this time.

I first heard this a few years ago because it’s in the soundtrack of some car game a friend was playing. The flappy mouth noises still crack me up just as much now.
