Yup, received two (11:30p/6:30a), 175 miles away. It's a dangerous abuse of the statewide emergency alert system. How many Texans turned off emergency alerts in their phone settings this morning because of this? I only have them active on my phone right now because of the increased wildfire risk, and as soon as we get some rain I'm turning that shit off again until next summer.
Bitch, Elon personally intervened to save the account of a guy that was posting pictures of a TODDLER BEING SEXUALLY ABUSED. I don't care if 99.9% of the content is "healthy" (L O fucking L) if the owner allows chid pornography to exist within that other 0.1%, you have a kiddie porn site. Period. And if Coke, Visa, and State Farm want to associate their brands with that, then they can fuck off and die too.
Nope, and I'm embarrassed for you that you seem to think so. The english language is filled with words that used to have one meaning or context and now they have another, and retard is one of those words. There are people on this board and in this thread who have explained several times over the years as to why they find the use of that word in that context harmful, not because they want to be part of polite society but because they have a loved one directly impacted by its use. It really isn't that difficult of a concept to grasp and if you allowed yourself to calm down and think rationally for once instead of letting your offense at others being offended drive you, I think you're probably capable of understanding that.
Coming out of high school (2000) I worked at group home for the developmentally disabled and even back then the use of retarded even in a clinical setting had largely been phased out. So I'm not sure that's as strong an argument as you seem to think it is.
What's going on with Pflugerville ISD?

I'm mocking other's beliefs because they are completely ridiculous when compared to my own sincerely held belief that an omnipotent god got mad and threw us out of paradise because a talking snake convinced a woman to eat an apple that one time.
I've only encountered one Lynel on the surface so far, but I've run across several down in the depths. I'm at 19 hearts and got one-shot'd by a white-maned bastard in the Central Depths the other day, so I just run when I see those bastards now -- even if I have to teleport to get away.
