American evangelical groups have played a role in pushing hateful policies
In reality, the US in particular has influenced or supported anti-LGBTQ policies and attitudes in Uganda, particularly via evangelical groups like the Fellowship Foundation, which had a hand in crafting the 2009 “kill the gays” bill, according to a 2020 report from Open Democracy.
Us Brits started it off, then the American Bible bashers keep it going. Tale as old as time.
This is so sad. I don't want to come off as "le enlightened atheist" but this is the harm that extremist religions cause.
You know when a band you love that broke up 30 years ago reform and release an album, and it's always a bit bland and just doesn't hit in the same way?
Reverse API changes, fire Spez, and sticky an apology to the frontpage.

I've been tired of reddit for a while, too many bots, too many bad mods, too many psychos and trolls. Basically, it's just too crowded. It's nothing like it was when I joined in 2010. The spirit of the site died a long time ago and you can't get it back.
Yeah for sure. I was on reddit for 13 years, there were users I recognised by name, people I was friendly with, people I'd have intense debates with, many, many, many subreddits I loved.
But nothing lasts forever, and this place seems nice so here's to new beginnings 🍻
Considering how new it is and how many people (like me) who have suddenly turned up from reddit I think it's doing brilliantly.
I'm using Jerboa and it's not bad but it could be a bit better. I'm getting a few bugs like the screen juddering when I scroll now and again, and the UX takes some getting used to.
But yeah, overall I'm impressed and excited to see this place grow.
This is Hector the duck 🦆

I just realised I've never seen Blazing Saddles...
What is wrong with me?
But I'm scared 😬
Good ol' Linus, love that bloke.

Well...
I mean... just Google it?
Yeah there's nothing wrong with being horny, but shoving it in strangers faces is just gross.

It's migration all the way down!
Nice one! 19 years of playing myself but I'm yet to get my dream guitar (American made telecaster).
I think it can be just damage to your reputation but yeah... not sure really 😕
Any lawyers reading this?
