UBlock Origin has retorted that the sponsorship affiliate links fit the Easy List definition for an advertisement and therefore they will not make an exception.

Completely and obviously correct. These are ads. The job of ublock origin is to block ads. The ads are being blocked, the software is doing its job, the advertisers can get fucked. Ads are brain-pollution and displaying them to me should be considered assault.

I'm sitting here trying to figure out how to make a joke about a dude having a chance with lesbians by comparing a plastic filled dick with a dildo but no matter how I approach it it just ends up way more offensive than it is funny for like at least three different reasons

So instead I just bring you the remains of this aborted joke and say "imagine if I were funny"

What is it with people named McAfee being absolutely unhinged

After the researchers recorded this, they played it back, then he excitedly flew over, thinking he just heard another ʻōʻō bird.

Awwwwww come on I didn't need to know that
