Do you really see a large number of gun-control-centered liberals talking about getting guns out of the "inner city" or away from "urban youth," though? Because what I've observed is most of the people who are concerned about gun control are trying to get guns out of the hands of largely young white men who shoot up schools, churches, grocery stores etc. I can't recall the last time I heard someone who identified as left of center complain about "violence in Chicago" — that beat is exclusively on the right.

MAGA has traditionally stood for "Make America Great Again," but I suspect after this year it might change to either:

Make Attorneys Get Attorneys

or

My Ass Got Arrested

Don't stick your fork in the light socket!

Seems like the Venn diagram of those two groups approaches a circle, if the OP is any indication.

"Gravy seals" belongs right next to "Y'All Qaeda" as one of those perfectly pitched nicknames that both encapsulates and decimates the right-wing freak show.

Don't threaten us with a good time.

Pretty sure this is never going to cross Biden’s desk.

Do either of them support forwarding messages from another domain? I’ve worked places that blocked my personal email, so I’ve mostly used Gmail to forward my personal domain.

I loathe Chris Christie with every fiber of my being but I will buy him a pair of Springsteen tickets if he files this suit.

I wanted to like BeOS so much. I even have a VM with Haiku on it. I occasionally spin it up, gawk at how retro-cool the UI is, look around at everything I'd like to be able to do, realize I can't seem to find any usable software for it, close it and try again in six months.

I've been a loyal System/MacOS/OS X/macOS user since System 6. From the first time I sat down at a Mac, it's the only OS family that allows me to forget that I'm using a computer and just do things.

Architecturally the Classic MacOS was a hacked-together mess (though I was pretty good about managing my extensions, and I put together some pretty impressive uptime with my old Power Macs), but the UI was incredibly fast and responsive. Even on my M2 Pro Mini I don't believe I can navigate my filesystem as quickly or as easily as I could on my OG iMac running 9.2. And I'd still love to visit an alternate universe where macOS evolved from the Server 1.0 UI rather than the Aqua UI.

OS X/macOS feels a little more cumbersome, a little less personal. I don't always love all the new features Apple pushes in its new releases. (IDEK with the new Settings menu.) And I really didn't love the hoops I had to jump through to get PHP running on my Mini (I could have gone with an all-Homebrew setup, but I wanted to keep things relatively uncomplicated). The last version of macOS I unabashedly loved was 10.14 Mojave. But in the end, I appreciate all the things that bringing Unix to the Mac allows me to do, and there's enough of the old MacOS DNA that I'm still mostly able to sit down, forget I'm using a computer, and just get my work done. That's what I look for in an OS.

I was going to suggest Twelfth Night, for the dirty pun embedded in Malvolio's letter, but then I realized the FTM cross-dressing would count as WrongThink in Florida. Sigh.
