I believe the episode title is Monty can't buy me love.

Mr Burns becomes envious of the popular billionaire Arthur Fortune and tries to improve his public image, eventually capturing the Loch Ness monster.

This scene is when Mr Burns goes to appear of the radio show Jerry Rude and the bathroom bunch and is asked about his first gay experience.

How prevalent the use of the exact phrase 'Your body, my choice' is irrelevant when the intent behind it is so common in other espoused rhetoric. The fact is that too fucking many people are happy to tear up a woman's right to self determination and force women into situations that put their lives at risk. I don't think we can ignore any rhetoric that supports or gives cover to such attacks on a woman's autonomy.

At this point I would not be surprised if we started seeing feminist groups becoming armed and violent. And as much as I have a disdain for political violence, I don't think I could condemn them for doing so.

I'm not really a fan of my king, the queen before him was far more likeable.

Pithy remarks aside, I don't see how the far left can be blamed for Harris losing given the pretty sizable margin by which she lost. And why would leftists be motivated to vote for a party that not only doesn't offer them anything in terms of policy, but actively courts so called 'moderate' Republicans?

So is it that leftists are too small a group to be worth making political concessions to, or are they a large enough group to have an effect on elections?

Why do Democrats feel entitled to the support of the left when they don't offer anything to the left?

But can you wreck a conversation like a group of Kirovs?

Progress towards what?

I prefer to use Main/Sub terminology. It also works without needing to change any acronyms.

You can get all the classic C&Cs on Steam and you can play a good chunk of them online using CNC online. I agree though, we need a new C&C Generals.

As a bisexual British person I absolutely support the idea of returning queer to it's classic meaning. There's also the option of just using both meanings. Context will establish which one you mean.

The Republicans are a right queer bunch, unlike my fellow queers in the LGBTQ+ community.

Fair points. I was mostly thinking of situations like downloading using a separate device, writing to a usb drive or SD card and installing via that. Downloading an installer and using it is just downloading without using an app store.

I've always took side-loading to mean installing from local storage, as opposed to downloading from remote storage. As far as I'm concerned downloading from a third party app store should not be treated as side-loading.

As opposed to your stance which is fuck people who don't want to have their language massively rewritten. I think it's far more reasonable to make individual accomodations for the non-binary folks that we interact with and accept that language has limitations and can't be changed overnight.
