I joined the Democratic party in 2016 just so that I could vote for Bernie in the primaries. Oh well.

It's the Netherlands.
I kind of don't like this. People are not worth more or less. We should be just as outraged at shooting a homeless immigrant on their way to an appointment for a sex date with a Grindr hookup as with your hypothetical father of 3 on the way home from work.
Where do you live? That's certainly not my experience in the Netherlands. Of course we have expensive health care because our center right government believed in privatizing everything, but it's still way better than the US. Source: born American, currently Dutch.
This is true. In Holland we have laws and regulations about this. My wife's job is enforcing this, although most of the work is designing places to minimize problems (don't build homes right next to highways, or under flight paths, or next to industry), as well as dealing with cafe owners who let their customers talk in front of the bars smoking at 02:00. π
I thought the same thing. In the Netherlands it's not allowed to have realistic looking toy weapons. I basically think that's a good thing.
I highly recommend the Alt Right playbook:

Is that a problem? Is there a special reason these should be replaced?
Yeah but your Linux partition is a freak and will do whatever you want. You can even ask it to dress up like Windows or macOS is you want for some reason... it doesn't care!
I was on vacation in the USA recently, and the existence of pharmaceutical advertisements was shocking. The amount of them was even more shocking!
I think that ISO 8601 is available for free. But agreed that the RFC version is superior.
It's about respect for the reader or listener. Using correct language eases the burden of deciphering what you are trying to say by using consistent forms. Otherwise it take extra effort for them to unscramble your words and figure out your meaning.
And yes, of course someone can figure out that when you say "me and Mike" you almost certainly mean to say "Mike and I". But you're making it harder for them by not bothering to learn or use the correct form.
