This is so disgustingly disturbing.
What kind of "Christian" worship a con man who can't even read a page of the bible and understand it.
I just read through the latest version of work's Staff Handbook. Now there are three separate, incompatible annual leave policies written down. Apparently I'm entitled to only 25 days, with a requirement to take at least 28 days from a flexible total of at least 30.
Just checked my contract, and it has a fourth version.
This is the story in the book, "Zed" by Joanna Kavenna, I just read. It did not go well! Privacy, surveillance, dystopian, nightmare. What a world, man! Re-fucking-diculous!
@dukepaaron #WTAF!! The ADL!? Seriously?!

Excuse me, but #WTAF ?
Who remember Y2K nightmare?
This will dwarf the horror and cost of the system changes for Americans.
Are people really that stupid to think that such system can be changed by a bunch of 20 something arrogant morons?
This is how disgusting American #liberals are.
She is feeling bad about #American fighter jet pilots who bombed #Yemen.
No fucking #sarcasm or #joke here. She honestly and wholeheartedly felt bad for the pilots #bombing the poorest country in the region to prevent it from disrupting the #Genocide!

@palestine@a gup.pe
So many stupid #movies and #TV shows talk about "the drive" & "hard drive" where people kill each other to get their hands on them, as if digital data can't be copied or shared.
It's really upsetting to watch.
Are screen writers really that stupid?

@samlitzinger That's right, these things with the word "Public" in them are the Devil's work. If Musk or Zuck or Murdoch don't control it, it's un-American, obviously.
The "Public" must be held accountable to them, apparently...
#WTAF
@D_J_Nathanson wholeheartedly agree with this ancient wisdom 
#wtf #wtAf
The US government is going to break the Internet for one of the biggest populations using it!
