    My parents interrogated me at the dinner table every night about school, and wonder why I don't voluntarily share things except for major life events with them to this day.

    I clammed up at 8; not sure who hurt me, but I've been a chronic conflict avoider ever since.

    She should have said "yes I toasted it with a Diet Coke".

    Well, I'm basically a cranky 70-year-old in a 35-year-old's body, so that probably explains why I don't know all the terminology the youngsters are using. Get off my lawn!

    We need to remedy this.

    The difference being that when a woman does it, we've already invented a convenient slur for it. Let us know when a man having a meltdown is consistently referred to as a "Brett" or a "Kyle" and maybe then you can "just say" that both genders have bad actors.

    It can happen here.

    It has.

    Not even. Among the countries with habeas corpus protections: the entire Anglosphere, Italy, Spain, Portugal, France, Germany, India, Pakistan, Malaysia.

    I don't see the Civilized Nations (Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Switzerland, Benelux) explicitly on the list but that's probably because they have something even stronger.

    We're not even the 40th free-est country in the world anymore. All our mechanisms are hundreds of years old and we haven't advanced since.

    Reboot it without the orcs. Jefferson would be aghast we haven't had a Third Republic by now. The First only lasted 22 years. The Second is a senile 246.
