A short pull-down list would work well: Spam, Harassment, Site ToS Violation, Thread/Group Rules Violation, etc.

This way you can automate rules like: if an article get's N spam or harassment reports it's put into the review queue and hidden until a Moderator can review it.

It would be nice if the report feature had a way to indicate if the problem is spam, content or whatever other issues people might have. You could have a threshold for spam reports to put the account in review and prevent of hide it's posts.

Most contested divorces take more than nine months anyways, and you don't need a divorce to separate and get into a safe space. Typically separation happens before the legal process starts, and even if you wanted to get remarried there is an intermediate 'bifurcation' step which can end the marriage legally before the divorce is finalized.

This is just a legal convenience for the court, but who doesn't love a little rage bait?

Well, sorta, it does call for a totalitarian theocratic state pretty early on, and justifies the possession of Palestine on the basis of military conquest, which is how it was taken. So, "your religious state is intolerable and only we get to take territory by force; when you do it it's not halal."

So, goyim is yiddish for "not jewish"[1]. The k slur is almost certainly "kike"[2] which means "totally jewish" but in the worst way.

Do you want your collection ending up on the black market? This is how your collection ends up on the black market…

Yeah, blood libel never gets old, sadly.

I regularly get materials with identifying information embedded in them, it's very common in the technical publishing industry, not unreasonable to check a purchased eBook for an identifier which ties it back to the original purchaser.

Wait, you can just do that? You can just arrest and charge people trying to take over your country!?

Do people enjoy ingesting disinformation?

Obviously, and very sadly, they really seem to.

Don't forget your sense of taste changes as you age, there's a reason old farts drink cheap rice/wheat lagers with subtle flavor profiles.

That said, the first IPA I had was from Summit Brewing in Minneapolis back in the middle 90's and it was nothing like the pine-cone flavored versions which are everywhere today.
