        Dear Grammar NAZI. I am disabled and use voice to text. If I pause while talking which I often do, it spells incorrectly about 1 time out of 100. It is not perfect and neither am I. I appreciate you for pointing out my shortcoming that has effected your life to the point that you had to reply on a forum to correct me. Send all your future complaints to Dragon Naturally Speaking. TY

          I dunno, I guess I think punitive justice is an inherently fucked up concept. When I was a kid, adults used to say two wrongs don’t make a right. At first I thought they were full of shit, but as I grew older, I learned how horrible prisons are and how they don’t make people better.

          In Christianity, you have to mean it. People can’t turn their beliefs on a dime like that, meaning it takes work. You have to have done the work. Anyone who’s successfully sacrificing Jesus would basically be capable of giving a meaningful apology to the victims and rehabilitating themself.

          Still, heaven isn’t for Me. It’s just not My aesthetic. When I die, I’m going to Ninuan.

            Sure, they can be forgiven, by God, after they suffered a horrible death themselves.

            We don’t even have to execute them, just denny them any services or any companionship from society. Anything not a basic need, and they will wish they died.

              After all the Deans being posted on Lemmy, I think I want to talk about Community.

              After Chang kidnapped the Dean and took over the school and was defeated by the study group, he showed up claiming to have Changnesia. Changnesia is a ridiculous lie and nobody believes it at first, but they decide to give him a chance, because we’ve all done bad things.

              Over time we get confirmation that Chang faked his Changnesia, and the characters end up pretty sure of it too. But still, they don’t expose him as a fraud and they don’t send him to prison, where legally, he belongs. Because prison doesn’t solve problems.

              Nobody ever trusts Chang again. Everyone knows he can’t be trusted. He can’t be given power. He’s evil. But he also has feelings, and he deserves happiness, as long as his happiness doesn’t involve hurting anyone.

              May we all have our own redemption, even if it must come from something as absurd as Changnesia.
