Reply to AI Helps Fight Unauthorized Nuclear Weapons by webmanpt
Crud. I better start working on mine.
I just got a Splenda packet that says "Create your own sunshine". These two things are a sign I need to start working on my improvised nuclear device now.

Reply to comment by clitoram in Kabul’s only library for women closes due to Taliban threats and harassment by SinbadMarinarul
After reading the article it seems it's because the libraries refused to remove sexually explicit material and to fund repairs to infrastructure. I still don't understand how these are equivalent. I am not arguing, I'm just trying to understand.

You feel better? Ranting and calling a random stranger an idiot because they have a different opinion than you? Cool story bro.

There are a lot of people jumping down the throat of WSJ without understanding that they didn't put him up to this.
This was his call.

As it stands, I’d struggle to support anything initiated by Russia.

Reply to comment by theassassintherapist in In China, Marriage Rates Are Down and ‘Bride Prices’ Are Up by I_call_it
I mean if you put "dower" there it gets even more ambiguous and arguably "nefarious", because it appears you're hiding what you're doing behind an arbitrary term.
Most people don't know what dower is. "Bride price" is an accurate enough description, it's a payment for a bride, and you can at least get that concept across first before talking about the historical background.
Also it turns out that's the right term.

"Dower" is specifically a Muslim tradition if it involves groom paying bride.
