  • A few counterpoints to the circumcision pros that you mentioned:

    • Circumcision rates are dropping across America. In some areas they ared dropping faster than others, but from what I recall the get are basically dropping everywhere to some degree. So I expect bullying about it is on the decline as it becomes less common.

    • Also, the simple fact is that bullies will find any reason to be shitheads. So if it’s not circumcision it’ll be something else.

    • Any straight women who are grossed out by a natural penis are idiots, and your kid will be dodging an asshole bullet if they do reject him over that.

    • Better to let him decide if he wants to get it cut later or leave it uncut than to take away his free agency.












  • I don’t trust some of the numbers in this article.

    Microsoft Teams: 100% CPU usage on 32GB machines

    I’m literally sitting here right now on a Teams call (I’ve already contributed what I needed to), looking at my CPU usage, which is staying in the 4.6% to 7.3% CPU range.

    Is that still too high? Probably. Have I seen it hit 100% CPU usage? Yes, rarely (but that’s usually a sign of a deeper issue).

    Maybe the author is going with worst case scenario. But in that case he should probably qualify the examples more.





  • Another ABC7 interviewee ducked upon hearing flash bangs detonate, and was then distressed by the sight of children detained. “They was bringing the kids down too, had them zip-tied to each other,” she said. “That’s all I kept asking. What is the morality? Where’s the human? One of them literally laughed. He was standing right here. He said, ‘f*** them kids.’”

    A witness of the same name told the Chicago Sun-Times it was “heartbreaking” to see “kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers.”

    If this witness is telling the truth (and I have no reason to doubt them based on videos of how ICE employees have terrorized people), then this is some incredibly fucked-up shit. These agents are getting bolder and bolder in their contempt for people with each passing day.
