An acceptable alternative

I don’t care what they do. If I have to refer to that social media platform/shitshow of a vanity project in any way whatsoever, I’m calling it Twitter.

The possum makes it. Nice.

Good. I wish you luck!

Based on this post and (especially) your response to ultranaut, there probably isn’t anything you could say that would make them give a shit. In fact, it sounds like approaching them at all could start a fight if you aren’t diplomatic.

Does your town/county have laws about keeping pets on a leash or within a fence? Make it animal control’s problem. Call them whenever it happens. The fact that these people have established themselves as troublemakers might end up working in your favor.

Depending on how strict/responsive animal control is, fencing in your yard might turn out to be the only effective solution. No, it isn’t fair that you should have to shoulder the costs, but that might be your only choice.

It’s not a lie, it’s a prank. I sympathize, but baking a baseball glove at 350 degrees is simply absurd.

A U.S. lawmaker involved in health policy has asked the Food and Drug Administration why it did not inspect Elon Musk's Neuralink before allowing the brain implant company to test its device in humans.

That is a very, very good question.

Would anyone care if they did?

Christ, what an asshole.

No, but meh. If they were mad enough to do that, the point remains.

I’d vote to join the EU in a heartbeat.

I am so grateful that the EU exists to set an example for this sort of thing.
