I disagree but we'll revisit the conversation in a decade as I added the task to my calendar so I'll talk to you in 2034.

I read the synopsis of the book(thanks for the link). I can see where a book like this wouldn't be appropriate for a 10yo but an entire school system ban seems an overreach.

It would be nice to ensure that as a parent, I was the one introducing topics to my child but having raised her already, I realize that unless I kept her at home her entire childhood, that's a pipe dream. I would have been ok with that book being at her school and if she had read it, she most likely would have talked to me about it as we had many candid conversations on sexuality, relationships and other topics that she came to be aware of via the internet, media or friends.

I'm very curious about what content in a Judy Blume book met the “pornographic or indecent material" burden mentioned in the article.

Other states hoping to finally be able to become a completely Christian-run entity will be taking notes.

Can I ask why you can't let them talk their nonsense? I know you don't think you can change them so if you choose to hang out with them, why can't you just let them be them? I'm not telling you that you should hang out with them, just that joining in on their discussion is a zero sum game.

I chose not to interact with family any longer and haven't spoken to any of them in years. Not out of anger or spite but simply because none of us were getting anything positive from the relationship.

The senators were not the ones that exposed anything.

The John Doe profiles were set up in April as generic 24-year-old males

Does the fact that they only used dummy male accounts and didn't bother to find out what women are subjected to represent the authors' own misogyny? Perhaps The Guardian should look at cleaning it's own house up before finding dirt on others'.

I understand your goal now. Unfortunately, I'm unable to help, hopefully someone on the community knows the answer and can help. Very best of luck!

As a result I have to disable RFP for my site (or just be annoyed all the time), and I guess I’ll have to advise my users to do the same.

Is there any reason you ~can't~ change your keybinds to something other than CTRL+combo? You explained it's to keep from interfering with other common binds but there's still a ton available to you when taking those into account.

It's your hill to die on but I wouldn't make my website usability dependent on a browser that is so rarely seen.

You're pretty great at what you do. Very nice job.

If you enjoyed the game, it was good. If you didn't, it wasn't. That's literally all that makes it either a good or bad game.

It was my least favorite only because the ruins/abandoned nature of 1 and 2 were what made the games so enjoyable for me.

It was incredibly easy to get banned there as many with the ability to ban were as petty and spiteful as the average SA poster. I had seen accounts get banned for something as little as not using punctuation and paragraphs(I'm not exaggerating).

Yeah, they're not even changing design. Just call it some feature of an internal combustion engine and call it done.
