If you’re not bent-out-of-shape, then why keep up this charade? Stop coddling the orange man-baby.

If it causes him to waste time and energy replying, even in a speech in the vaguest of terms about his “haters”, it’s good enough.

Failing another dragon, death by a thousand cuts can kill a dragon, and there’s little exuse for holding punches when the dragon repeatedly demonstrates that it absolutely has to die.

Riiight, let me just go throw a small dick joke at, say, Ellen Degeneres, or Oprah, or even Ru Paul(iirc, theirs, if they still have it, was rumored to be large) … None of them would care. They would probably laugh at the notion of me getting worked up about it.

Toxic masculinity is bad when targetted at non-men, or non-masc-conforming men. Saying throwing a small-dick joke at Donald-Fucking-Trump is equivalent to calling Ellen small-chested, Oprah fat, or Ru Paul masculine, is bat-shit apologism, and I’m done responding to you on this bullshit.

Tell them that. They’re the only ones getting more bent-out-of-shape about it than you.

I’m still afraid to google what Russians consider sauce. Worst case, I have something in common with Trump, and that I cannot abide at the moment.

Adolf Hitler killed himself when Germany was invaded, ie, the world responding in kind to the lowest form of communication and behaviors(war), and was absolutely right to do so. He demonstrated less will to survive than basically any of the people he had sent to death camps.

Stop chastising people for punching up at the billionair class.

Being toxic is an invitation to be toxic. The subject has made clear the forms of communication within their grasp, and decency is not among them.

I have friends with similarly-low follower accounts that have been engaged with by Elon Musk on Twitter.

You fail to grasp the pettiness and narcissism of this particular brand of celebrity. They will go to stupid lengths to crush an ant that looks at them funny, never grasping what a complete waste of time and energy they are engaging in.

I mean, in general, or in captivity? There is probably a huge difference.

There are many days when I feel like this, and pretty muct every day for as long as I can remember, I’ve spent some time thinking about where I should go(outside the US) if fascism wins outright here.

Looks like congratulations are in order! Happy for you!

The lengths they’ll go to to refuse to admit those started as Pallets, as if anyone ever held that against them.

Wait until they learn what can happen when its cold enough outside. There’s a legitimate reason that climbing naked into a sleeping bag together is recommended for hypothermia, but until you’ve got that core temperature back up …

The WTO is probably right. I couldn’t remember earlier, did some googling, and went with what I found. The WTO and IMF together are a global juggernaut. The ICC is … the one that sticks out in my memory, for some reason.

I was promised Jose Cuervo, instead my hair is finally starting to thin dramatically. I MUST SPEAK TO THE MANAGER!!!

Set to the tune of the Freakazoid soundtrack. Much approval.

That’s actually the point I started from, then Nomen to make it more gender-neutral, and at that point the meta-naming game just jumped out at me.

There’s the International Criminal Court, yes, but there’s also the International Chamber of Commerce.

The confusion gives them(the Commerce peeps) a veneer of authority, although as a facet of the International Monetary Foundation that the US/EU requires countries to sign onto in order to do business, they do issue binding decisions versus member countries. That, or the US get’s more hands-on with its meddling.

Realistically, Google and then the other Android manufacturers will stop business in Argentina. Grey market will then be filling that niche, almost cerainly with imported phones.

ICC Arbitration coming in 3 … 2 …

Honestly, I hope Google just stops doing business in Argentina. Let their courts tussle with phone manufacturers that sell Android devices until they do the same. Not the end of the world if your citizens have to buy such things grey-market or keep using what they already have, or buy devices with other operating systems.

Before you say Apple, Apple would have to handle it pretty much the same as Google if/when they get sued/prosecuted like so.
