Just to suck the life out of this (yet another) hilarious vignette, did you know, according to the data gathered by defenders.org, in the United States more people are killed by cows than wolves?! The UK-based theconversation.com has a webpage advising how to stay safe around a killer herd!

I'm back. Didja miss me?

Have to politely disagree with Mr Ager's analysis/conjecture. While I may concede that some abuse may have happened in Alex's childhood, there's no solid or even implied link to either parent being the abuser. Unfortunately, people hang for such circumstantial or presumed evidence. I'll generously grant Ager that there may have been sexual abuse on the part of the law (Deltoid, police) and if any case may be made regarding the parents' culpability, it possibly would be their turning a blind eye to the presumed sexual abuse (there's a legal term for this but it escapes me at the moment).

Really? You need to see a (max.) 64px sq image of something to engage?

Here. Use an Invidious link instead of Piped. Best of both worlds: it doesn't link directly to privacy-ignoring YouTube and (usually) will show a post thumbnail image when linked to from Lemmy.

If you all will excuse me, I'm gonna engage in the linked analysis of A Clockwork Orange.

When was the last time you had USD$10B? Next you're gonna defend Mackenzie Scott's hard-earned USB$34B, I suppose.

Indeed. Now she has only ca. USD$11B left over to survive with. She can buy only five, possibly six Sentinel ICBMs.

What's everybody getting so perturbed about? Geez. Isn't this just like when an ethnic group uses an ethnic slur within their own circle? 🤣

admitting homosexual men into seminaries

Ooh, like that's never happened before in the entire history of the Holy See. 🙄
