We are still working on getting your laptop. If you could quietly jork it over here, we might be able to get it to you by next week.

Yes. We must bring genocide to the U.S. and maintain the genocides overseas!

Wouldn't want them to grow up and die in a protest.

Best take in the thread. This is what people are missing. They're focused on things like children being sick and that it's no picnic. But if my coworker jets at 3 to ref his child's soccer game which he volunteers to do because he likes and wants to, and others are not able to take time like that, is that the same flexibility?

The leaving to pick up kids, "don't worry, I'll be back online after", and they vaporize...all too common as well. It's a daily thing where I work.

Essentially, it is often abused.

I always point to the Alabama Senate election between Roy Moore and Doug Jones. Roy Moore, known pedophile, vs. normal Democrat. Far too many conservatives went on record saying "better than a Democrat".

They are so anti-pedophile until suddenly they're not. What a disgusting thing to change your opinion on, person to person.

Yes. Spelunking in the log factory.

Self hosting as well. navidrome and an android app like symfonium and you can do anything.

I feel like Vietnam veterans who were objectors could fall in this category. Plenty of them were forced to go. In the end, anyone who was drafted and didn't want to be would have some level of understanding from me.

This is what is referred to as anecdotal evidence. Go read up on voter suppression and gerrymandering.
