We do read what you write, you’re just wrong. Or maybe lacking compassion. Or just don’t understand that everyone is different and that education systems generally suck.

When I was a kid, I had two classmates who had accommodations due to their learning disabilities. Nobody thought, hey, they should “be moved to the institutions that will force them to study”, because they didn’t not want to study. They just needed help. Did the rest of us feel threatened or jealous of them? No. We either didn’t care or were happy they got at least a bit of help in this cookie-cutter system.

On the flip side, I was surrounded by straight A students in HS, but 99% of them forgot the material once they were graded on it and ultimately retained the same level of knowledge (sometimes less!) than me who was a B/B- student. And then people like that go on to be shitty doctors, because all they do is learn by heart with little to no understanding of the material, and the educational system rewards that.

The more I read your comment, the more insane it sounds.

I watch Sitting with Dogs YT series, and recently there was a dog in a Cali shelter whose owner went to LA and was disappeared by the ICE. The comments were absolutely vile, and I sincerely hope at least 90% are bots.

PIV is just one form of rape.

I have to occasionally use it. Not often, but there are still times where nothing else works. Sometimes I’ll need to log in to a site, but for a wild XYZ reason it doesn’t work on Firefox, just Chromium-based browsers. Or the site won’t display at all. Or for instance the web devs completely block anything but Chromium with an excuse that “it can’t work on Firefox” (looking at you Apple Business Manager, go fuck yourself). Luckily, it’s rare enough.

Look up a higher res version. The middle is transparent.
