In the secondary, new-age definition of "literally" yes that's true.
We lost the war for "literally". It's now just an emphasis word. The definition is mind bending:
1)in a literal manner or sense; exactly.
2)informal; used for emphasis or to express strong feeling while not being literally true.
On the bright side less people use "absolutely" incorrectly than before.
Please tell me of this enlightened place you come from where racism and discrimination do not exist. Surely they also are accepting refugees and I need but apply? No?
Everyone but my tribe are _______. Hehe I'm so clever.
This in reply to someone calling themselves "The Grammar Police" is art.
It sounds like the cost of the air tag would kick the value over 200. Not sure if stealing it by proxy would be considered.
When I was a kid my dad picked up a bunch of political signs AFTER the election to use as free range targets. A cop stopped him and gave him a hard time but nothing came of it.

I got a fine for not getting my bus ticket stamped in Florence, Italy. Apparently if you paid it the same day it was one price and that price doubled after a week, month, etc.
Didn't matter the machine failed when I stamped it because it was out of ink. I even tried to stamp it in front of the officer. He said I could appeal it in person in court. They know tourists aren't going to appear in court to appeal. I felt scammed but after calming myself down and paying the fine the officer apologized and told me in a few words he hated his job.
You should take a moment to read up on the topic.

Trump signed the original agreement with the Taliban. Biden delayed the deal from May until September. Trump had a year to handle sorting the agreement he made.
Most of us understand both presidents failed in it's execution. It's important you know that Trump lit a short fuse and walked away.
So you "don't care whatsoever" about fixing the problem you seem so passionate about and would rather winge about it. The rest of us are interested in solutions. You are soapboxing to primarily left leaning people here on Lemmy so I don't know who you are hoping to proselytize.
Plenty of gun owners are for common sense gun legislation, background checks, mandatory safety instruction, etc. If you want to enact change we need them on our side. What you are doing just creates division and slows any progress we make toward sanity. Mediate your rhetoric.
Because idealistic posturing is for children and getting someone to eat less meat is more helpful than creating an atmosphere where vegans/vegetarians have to spend time apologizing for the loud minority.
This is much better but your previous comment was awful. It read like a LLM alone wrote it.
That being said I can't tell you why specifically it reads like that. I'm forwarding it to my friend who is a English professor to find out. If English is your second language then just keep at it and please don't take the criticism here personally.
