Guess we should all stop using cell phones too, the erlang that powers them is old as dirt and therefore must be bad.

I came here to comment this letter for letter.

I’m not salty about being excluded, you’re salty about being excluded.

I’m not an expert on this, but I have listened to people talk who are and claim that you can pretty clearly link cognitive decline with the introduction of technology effectively everywhere.

I’m sure it’s not as clear as “tech bad” but it does seem like screen time and deferring the manual parts of learning to computers is not great for us.

Are any original Gwar members still there?

I get what you’re saying, but this isn’t a dig at Gen Z. For as long as we’ve been testing, which is like 50 years I think, the new generation has outperformed the previous one and that’s a good thing.

Having this generation underperform means that we have failed them and we need to figure out exactly how we fucked up. The evidence is really strong that technology in the classroom is a significant contributor.

Free market totally regulating itself like we’ve always been told.

Did you find one?

“I don’t have anything to hide” is such an insidious little lie. A colloquial fib we feel compelled to utter as a mock defense, like asserting innocence will assuage suspicion.

We all have something to hide. Probably many, many things to hide. Even just in the narrow context of the law, there are hundreds of thousands of laws that apply to any one of us at any given time, and you are almost certainly breaking some of them without even knowing it.

Personal security through privacy is so very, very important. I wish more people could see that.

You can’t pull one over on these kids. They have tons of free time and none of the responsibility of adulthood, they’re gonna bypass whatever the fuck you put in front of them.

I was that kid that refused to be constrained and I’m so fucking proud of this generation for carrying on the legacy.

I just got confused because the video doesn’t show up in reader mode haha.

The article only lists five. Where’d the sixth name come from?

Edit: there’s a video at the top with the readout.

I don’t agree with passing off their behavior as “cultural”. I am ashamed of men because some of them are reprehensible, and some of them want to ignore how reprehensible those ones are or explain it away.

I choose to embrace feeling deeply ashamed at how we’ve allowed the worst of us to form the general opinion of us and vocalize that routinely.

Fuck their insecurities, if they want to be able to go up to a woman without “getting her drink splashed in their face” maybe they should focus harder on fixing the problem so women can generally feel safe with us.

I didn’t say that I was ashamed of myself, I said I was ashamed of men and the association they cast on me.

You’re kinda enabling that behavior by advocating against vocalizing how shitty it is.

It’s fun being deeply ashamed of your gender because some of us are filth and scum.

These fuckers harm everyone with their actions. Wish we could do something actionable about it.

Ah, ok, you’re just a troll.

We already have motivated people, who already know who is implicated in the files; but without hard proof we will be stalled forever.

I don’t think it’s fair at all. They’re being allowed to read the documents:

• in person only
• without any electronic devices
• on a DOJ computer
• at a DOJ facility
• by appointment

There is absolutely no way in this scenario to verify the integrity of the documents, or cross reference them with the redacted versions. Anything they find will need to be notated by hand and will not be verifiable with any other organization.

Not to mention the fact that actually going through these documents with any level of rigor would be the work of an entire team of people working around the clock for months.

This is less than useless.

Also a big dude, also never have to worry about this shit.

Fucking stupid that women get treated so poorly, and so routinely.

Knowing that I gave you a laugh is the highlight of my day. Thanks!

Ugh, lmgtfy was the absolute worst.

Sending a link to that site was the answer to tell me you’re an asshole without telling me you’re an asshole.
