Mazal tov!

I'm not sure about the server you mention, but as far as I know religious.social is still available and I believe that one is Christian-themed.

Well that makes it different doesn't it? Lol!

Trust me we're going to be wishing for the rain come August.

Yep me too.

Happy birthday! Enjoy the upgrade.

@gocu54 See this is like when potential clients call me for advice, and then they try to argue about the best way to do the job. Needless to say they don't become clients, because I am not your code monkey.

@Bruce Better living through chemicals.

@Bruce Yeah like I said. Not good choices for anybody. Carney will absolutely screw you guys, because he's a politician.

@quanin @gocu54 That's awesome.

Yes it does.

@Bruce I had nothing to do with it, although honestly our choices were between a shit sandwich and a double shit sandwich. Also I'm not sure you guys did such a hot job up there yourself. Nobody really has any optimal choices at the moment.

Semite, (or more properly, Semitic), applies to languages, not peoples. The term "anti-semitism" got coined in the 1870's because German bigots wanted their Jew-hate to have a scientific coat of paint. "Hebrew" is less common, but can refer to Jews, but mostly refers to the language, and Jews don't typically refer to ourselves as Hebrews. This was different 2,000 years ago, which is why the New Testament book is called Hebrews and not Jews. Personally I prefer to use "Jew-hate" instead of "antisemitism" because I hate euphamisms, especially when they're used to try to sugar coat things like this.

@gocu54 Seconding this. Your accountant is using whatever tax software makes his job more efficient and increases his profit margin. Which is smart of said accountant, and not wrong, but it's a thing.

OK that's fair.

OK that's fair.

Left of Trump is a pretty lose term, given I'm not sure Trump knows where he is at this point. But know that I appreciate you.

Horse flies are the fucking worst.

@Bruce Well then you'd better start apologizing because noone left of Trump is even pretending to give two shits about antisemitism in this country, and don't even get me started on Canada. And I hate saying that, because I don't believe Donald Trump's motives are pure in the slightest.
