You’re getting shit because rape is an extremely serious act and diluting the severity of it by describing other violations with its language is not acceptable to most people.
How hard would it have been to say “betrayal of trust” or “violation of personal property and control over what she puts in her body?”
When you get lazy with your language we all suffer. Be better.
They sure don’t, cars continue to be safer, more durable, and require less service every model year. The median age of the automobiles on the road gets older every year.
They’re generally consistent within a single manufacturer’s product lines; however, you absolutely cannot compare them between manufacturers because the definitions are completely different.

There is a growing resentment from traditional labor which cannot work remotely against the knowledge labor force which is able to work remotely. If the educational divide between GOP and Dems is fleeting, he’s betting on his party’s historic strength.
SAAS is a scam developed by venture capital to make their otherwise nominally profitable tech gambits able to bilk clients of cash on a scale not even Barnum could fathom.
I’d just like to interject for moment. What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) introduced a resolution Monday evening to remove Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) from his seat, triggering an expected intraparty clash and setting up a showdown for the House to decide whether to depose McCarthy likely within 48 hours....
The former president told Kristen Welker that he isn't worried about going to jail, he thinks he can broker peace on abortion and where he stands on shutting down the government.
It’s not, actually. Protocol requires that there only be one President at a time and after the end of the final term one’s title reverts to their second most-hugest held title — Mister Trump, Senator Obama, Governors Bush and Clinton.
The issue is that news media is trained to write and speak so that the broadest audience can consume the copy, so referring to former Presidents by that title had become commonplace. You see it almost everywhere now, however formal correspondence or address in formal setting (i.e. a state dinner) would use the correct protocol.

Where is exactly is the left in this fight? The media is hardly the left and RFK Jr. is an alt-right candidate using his family’s name as cover to masquerade as a Democrat.
