Are you not a native English speaker? It’s not an uncommon word.

Yeah, but some of that stuff isn’t just a spicy pepper. One kid died because of extreme capsaicin revealing a heart issue: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/death-teen-ate-spicy-chip-experts-rethinking-capsaicin-effects-rcna152766

Putin has been waging cyber warfare against NATO for years. Would a bear shit in the woods?

The Sun is an actively terrible rag, and the Telegraph is right-wing. Anything named “the liberty beacon” is automatically under suspicion.

The Independent is a bit conservative but generally reliable, and I’m not familiar with the Sun Times.

Obviously the story has a factual basis, but I just want to see more reliable outlets reporting on it.

You’re right, we should change that too. Imprisoning a drunk driver for longer doesn’t fix anything. Mandate treatment, put a breathalyzer in their car, or revoke their license and give them probation. If they violate probation, then imprison them until they are rehabilitated.

Ah yes, appeals to emotion, my favorite part of the judicial process.

For classes that’s are mostly lectures, it doesn’t need it.

I went to college to get the degree so I could check that box on job applications, I already knew most of the material.

He’s long past any pretense. He’d just have the IDF execute them.

I mean you can… you can’t commit genocide if all your people are dead.

But that still involves genocide, and maybe this is a hot take, genocide is bad. So we shouldn’t take that option.

Out of the present list of dictators, he’s probably the coolest.

But that’s like having a favorite STD.

I’d rather send it to a non-tankie platform. I regret my previous financial contributions.
