Brendan Eich who founded Brave was ousted from Mozilla for being a homophobic piece of shit.

He was ousted because he donated 1000$ to a political project that he personally supported, which yes, was banning of homosexual marriage.

I specify that, even if I shouldn't, the project in question is not something I agree with. Yet firing him and continuing to attack him years after (like you're doing here) over opinions he kept personal (he didn't bring it to Mozilla nor did he comment openly about this opinion) is a little shocking to me.

Let's say you personally supported a wildly unpopular, some might call bigoted, societal change, say drug criminalization in states that legalized it. As long as you just not exposed this in your professional life, how would you feel if your work fired you over it and if people kept bashing you (without knowing anything about you) and your future professional endeavors for the rest of your life?

We should probably just chill out on that part.

You can use the regular Youtube interface for shorts, I do it everytime I open one:

  1. go to a short video

  2. replace the /shorts/ part of the URL by /v/

  3. ??? (trigger warning: old meme)

  4. Profit

Same here!

People said that to me a lot when I was a kid and I took a very long time (only once a teenager or adult?) to understand what they even meant by that (how was that sentence going to make me eat?). It even had the opposite effect, I was like: cool a solution: less for me, more for them, and everyone's happy!

Even now that I get the thought, I still think this is a nonsensical sentence to convince people they should eat things they don't want to.
