To paraphrase a comment I read here recently: the greatest innovation of the republican party was realising that so many people prioritise hurting people who aren't like them. You might think that between "cut off everyone'

I didn't know that was unsafe. Well, it's not unsafe because anyone who can exploit it has already fully compromised my PC. It rather involved being on the other side of this airtight hatchway. But I didn't know that putting
