It’s ingrained to avoid attraction to siblings we grow up alongside, though anecdotally there have been many cases of siblings who grew up apart discovering they were siblings after meeting as strangers and feeling mutual attraction, so the biological instinct may just have evolved around the most common case.

He’s still useful to the people who can conjure money into being. Surely they can spare him a few oil-company board positions, book deals, newspaper columns or “consultancy” roles in think tanks, or otherwise throw him enough of an allowance to reward his service and keep him ready for the future. And then there’s the public speaking circuit.

Boy’s not going to be bagging groceries.

As Churchill said, “I love Germany so much I want to have six of them forever”

If Anon really does live in Siberian forest, he may want to exercise caution about non-traditional gender presentation. The government there really does not like that sort of thing, and are looking for cannon fodder to feed into their war.

10 years of being GenX:

year 1: monochromatic primary-coloured graphics on a ZX Spectrum/chunky sprites on a Commodore 64/dying of dysentery and NTSC colour fringing on an Apple II

year 10: 4096-colour 3D graphics and digitised sound on an Amiga/playing Microsoft Flight Simulator on a 1024x768 multisync monitor

And whose fault is it for defining everyone’s sex as being at time of conception?

Given his leading role in AfS (a party to the right of the far-right SD party, whose role in the ecology of the Swedish far right appears to be to be the ideological shock troops who float extreme ideas and see which of those are ready to be laundered into the mainstream by the “respectable”SD), it’s probably safe to say that this guy was a piece of shit.

Looks like buying the Washington Post paid off then

The downside of this is that it involves giving money to Bezos in the first place. If there are similar techniques that work with, say, Apple Books, Kobo or other stores not owned by a literal Bond villain, they’d be even better.

(Also, everyone else seems to use the EPub format, while Amazon have their own proprietary fork of an old PalmPilot ebook format. Meaning that you’re probably going to need to convert it to EPub for reading, which is one more step and could, in theory, go awry.)

You’re right, it does not make sense.

If Toronto isn’t in Poland, you must acquit! The defence rests.

To be fair, he didn’t say it’d be better for the humans
