Jumping Jimminy! One of my college English lit courses spent 4 full weeks on Donne. It was all his religious poems, certainly not this.

1·2 months agoI’m doing this now. For Mr/Ms fix it myself, I don’t find much elsewhere. I hope that changes.
Tbh I figured they have bots crawling social media to find out what people are using to avoid their annoying, intrusive, abusive practices and use that to get ever more obnoxious.

That is because it’s beneficial to their bottom line.
Common knowledge You don’t have to back up absolutely everything you say with evidence (or you’d soon run out of wordcount to advance your own point properly!). Some things are common knowledge. That could mean that a fact is just generally known by everyone, and not disputed or in doubt. This could include:
•facts such as London is the capital of the United Kingdom •well documented dates such as the start of the First World War in 1914 •H20 being the chemical formula for water •things which everyone knows from their lived experience, such as the sky is blue.

Let it go. Move on to those more receptive.
I remember when one conservative parent was absolutely furious with GW Bush over invading Iraq. Then they were all in MAGA for nine years. They’ve finally disavowed that one, but I don’t know how much time they have to come further left, or how the trajectory may shift. We actually had a pleasant few days together, with each of us clenching our teeth and walking away a few times, but that’s any relationship. Some things we (everyone) feel strongly about really aren’t worth that argument. In fact, a lot of them.
“If it doesn’t apply, let it fly.” “Hit dogs holler.”
Little Shop of Horrors, original and remake. But I always assign social commentary, regardless if the writer meant any or not.
That was a great movie. I also really liked “Get Out.”
Oh? I noticed that issue last couple of days using invidious on librewolf, and thought it was YT doing invidious shenanigans again.
Surveillance society is a bad idea, period.
About the time some billionaire/politician/LEO/judge out other influential/affluent person is recorded in a compromising position.
It’s like that movie, The Mask (and it’s like that for the rest of us, too): the more times you put it on and the longer you wear it, the more you meld into it and the mask into you.
