That's what I thought too. FoxNewsSucks Monday #34

My first impression of the WARREN resemblance was just the immediate impact of the face. UTUSN Monday #36

There's definitely a facial resemblance FoxNewsSucks Monday #38

Yeah, the vid is spoiled for me now, too. This highlights another flamer trait, UTUSN Monday #44

The ignore button is your friend Fiendish Thingy Monday #4

Yip, doing that more than can like, reaping a pain in the gut and actual stress. Sometimes I dread UTUSN Monday #8

As a big fan of the ignore function, I'll tell ypu how I manage it. NNadir Monday #14

Excellent and very understanding points. Back when, during the early Ignore era, tried it on bad actors. UTUSN Monday #15

That's the best part of an ignore list. Checking through it and realizing... NNadir Monday #19

Yip, silently ignoring the stalking and lies until they expose themselves is satisfying when it happens. UTUSN Monday #21

I know how you feel about AI from Music Appreciation. pwb Monday #37

"but there is a moderate side where the main content is not pernicious," WhiskeyGrinder Monday #32

The thread UTUSN is upset about wasn't primarily a debate about AI, either. It was about the inaccurate highplainsdem Monday #39

I also pushed back on the inaccuracies ("100 vikings vs 10,000 Mongols," come on) and I think it's important to WhiskeyGrinder Monday #40
