Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.
Honestly I don’t see why any person would want to force someone else to take hormones as a contraceptive when non-hormonal contraceptives work. And the fact that it’s pill form makes it super easy. Literally not even an inconvenience. Just toss it back in the morning. Boom. Done.
Hormones will fuck you up.
In no way was the original comment even trying to imply anything about women trusting men. So I’m a little confused about this response.
Can’t wait for the flood of people telling us why this isn’t feasible for men to take and insisting that when a SAFE and 100% EFFECTIVE form is ready they’ll surely take it.
In fact, I’d wager that they accomplish the opposite of what they claim. How many people see their reaction to mods, and decide “nah I’m not buying anything from them”
I know I do that. I’m sure others do too. So now rather than buying the game to mod, I’m avoiding anything from the company for quite some time.
Hey, so all the people who told me they need their guns “to fight tyranny”… They’re gearing up, right?
That’s how I’ve been pronouncing it in my head when I read it.
I still say “Twitter” though because that and the gulf of Mexico are the only things I feel are okay to deadname.
“yeah this thread is discussing how the American people are actively burning teslas and dealerships and all that but ameriturds totally won’t do anything”
I’m watching news every day about how the Turd Reich is cracking down on anything that opposes them, but yeah the people totally aren’t doing a thing.
This is not “I am an American and you should let me in” it’s very much “I’m fleeing my country for political persecution please allow refugees in from this shit hole country”
Good to know nationalism, inhumane conditions, and good old fashioned concentration camps are acceptable as long as it’s “hurting the right people”!
Living in an echo chamber can make one pretty deaf to life’s real problems.
My favorite group I have ever DMd for was at a convention, it was 2am, and nobody had ever met before except the two couples in the mix of 9. I just ran part of a campaign I was working on for a different group.
I barely had to interact with them for RP stuff unless it was to drive the plot, or play a character they convinced to join them.
It was great seeing a large muscular guy dressed like a Dwarven blacksmith role play a halfling, and the smallest person there was playing as a half-orc barbarian from the plains of icewind dale.
And of course since it was a convention, and some of them had LARP gear with them, a friendly competitive sword fight broke out during a rest and instead of rolling, they just went ahead and used foam swords and stepped away from the tables. And borrowed dialogue from the princess bride.
Most groups definitely prefer combat, and to be honest so do I unless I’m running the game. Maybe I just haven’t played with the right group or character, or more likely I just suck at it. Either way…
I think everyone has “that one group” they wish they could play with forever and never have scheduling conflicts…
I tried being a moderator on a forum once, and after alerting admins and the FBI about csam less than a week in, I decided I was done being a moderator.
It was a forum for RC stuff, mostly diy rc planes.
Unfortunately, therapy only helps you cope, it doesn’t let you forget.
Even IF we are ALLOWED to vote next year and beyond, and IF we manage to pull our heads out of our asses, we will be fixing this mistake for decades.
And if we aren’t allowed to vote… Well, I hope we remember the cure for fascism soon. Actually strike that, it implies I’m willing to wait 1-3 years to find out, I want the people to remember the cure now.
I can only imagine what bullshit I’m going to hear over the next few years about why the US isn’t doing well but the EU and Canada are.
I’ve had more conversations than I can count with people I would never be able to talk to in person, all using our own native languages.
The original posts are in English, people comment in their native language, and I use a translator, then respond in my own language. Is the translator perfect? No! Neither is theirs.
With the way most translators I’ve used work, it’s easier for the non-native speaker to try translating, since the translator might try and use different words that entirely change the meaning, but likely list possible alternatives. A native e speaker will understand the alternatives while a non-native speaker probably won’t.
That’s my thought process anyway.
Never had anyone who wasn’t pearl-clutching or virtue-signaling complain about it. And I’ve had tons of conversations with people I’d never have talked to otherwise.
See, he ASSUMES there’s “no way to win” and that this judge will always, regardless of anything else, strike down things because they’re “against republicans/trump/whoever”
Why?
Because that’s exactly what they would do, are doing, plan to do in the future, and can’t imagine a world where someone else isn’t just as shitty as they are.
Projection. Insecurity.
I mean, there’s no way to win, but that’s because this is one of those things that can’t be ignored and absolutely should result in consequences. I’m not hopeful that real consequences will be had though.
Nothing says “we are a free and open community that welcomes others” like moderators banning discussion of poor moderation.
Yes, I do understand what the rule is there for. No that doesn’t make it any less hilariously shitty.
I’d say 50/50 because she’s a woman and a Democrat.
Good thing she never wore a tan suit or used the wrong mustard, then Republicans would have done something drastic like storm the Capitol building!
When someone informs him it’s named after a person he will demand that this domestic terrorist be brought in for impeachment and deported, not understanding why none of that makes sense
So give up, just don’t do anything!
I know those weren’t your literal words, but that’s the sentiment.
It’s the only thing you can do at this point if you gave them your DNA, and it harms nobody to try.
Listing all the reasons not to bother just seems a bit pointless to me. Especially since they had no real reason to honor the request before.
Anything else would simply be improper!
They like complaining and “being right” is more important to them than being helpful. Whether they are right or not is immaterial to the facts. Whatever the issue is they just need to be seen being right about it.
Incidentally that’s a common trait among narcissists.
