She'd have done better claiming, "It doesn't even look like me‽ Kind of a shit artist imo, if we're all just being honest."
Apparently, there's no going back from the Streisand effect. And now, here we all are, looking at her actual gremlin face... understanding that the painting is somehow true. She should have let it go
a metaphoric adjective describing situations where it is not clear which of two events should be considered the cause and which should be considered the effect
I guess the overtones are a product of their times. Currently, it seems to be: is science/religion the "cause" or "effect".
I always staked claim that it was a "scientific vs philosophical" question; but I never considered how timeline could change the overtones or underlying thinking of "The chicken and the egg" concept. Neat
I once had an encounter that I never considered to be rape... just emotionally/psychologically uncomfortable. Until I was telling someone about it, and then it was like the act of hearing my own words made me realize what happened.
Thankfully, it wasn't very detrimental to my psyche... but I still don't much like talking about it, or really thinking about it. Beacuse it turns out, most people would consider that rape; including me when I looked from the outside-in. Abuse takes many forms. Mine just came in the form of emotional that led to physical, and I didn't even realize what happened for most of that day.
I was about to say that it wouldn't matter which way was "locked", because his friend could easily unlock it and see what's on the other side of that door... like, they'd need to use a keylock to keep their friend from having easy access and seeing what's behind that door
Took me several attempts to realize they were locking themselves in the room; for whatever relations to be interpreted. I never claimed to be a smart man
Also... the amount of money I've saved by being able to revive old hardware! I haven't bought a new computer in 11 years. My computer before that (and still working) was a gift in 2006... that bitch is old enough to vote.
I have other computers that people have given to me because they were "just too old," but for me, it was an upgrade. I revived a windows 98-era HP a few years ago, just so I could use the 9-pin connection to fix my bricked OG Xbox that I was modding.
Granted, I don't game on PC or require heavy lifting (though I am saving for a personal build, because there's some hobbies I just can't do without a good desktop), but for everyday use, I have more than enough.
I currently have 4 "working" computers. Two of them are my main, one still needs to be "reinvigorated" (it's 18 years old), and one is my server.
I have a 5th desktop that was given to me (because it was too slow/old), and it just recently crapped out on me (either because of windows bullshit, or a bad hdd. But I have my hunches). So it's about to be revived when I have time.
Hardest part was getting my wife onboard with switching to Linux, instead of buying a new computer. But now she's getting ready to switch her Mac to Linux because it's been struggling. And I think she's starting to realize that a brand-new computer isn't really "necessary", if all you're doing is email, browsing web, and editing docs. Shit, our phones can handle most of that; you don't need a $1k+ computer for that, or pay for windows software that will barely work on the hardware you have.
So yeah... end rant. Absolutely love how much Linux has breathed new life into my old hardware. Has saved me time and time again, as well as a bunch of money. I definitely need to throw a donation at a distro, cause they have saved me more than just money at this point
Plastic surgeon flooding their basement, just thinking about the rhinoplasty they could perform. "He'll be even sexier with that scar from the forearm flap!"
I just finished doing a fresh install this morning, because my wifi card wasn't working. It honestly needed to be done anyway because I was out-of date, but the wifi card finally got me to back-up all my data and do it.
Fresh install, and wifi still won't even toggle-on. Was about to look for manual install of the driver, and so on and so forth... and then I noticed my folly
Fucking keyboard has a toggle switch to turn the wifi off. Not the worst and glad I didn't pull my hair out over it, but damn... felt pretty dumb this morning
But you made a post less <2 days ago, and commented over 50 times just this past week
So, did you just VERY recently start "hardly looking" or something? Or are you just trolling/full of shit bologna?. No hard feelings or anything, but damn; low effort. Be better
But that just projects a shadow of what's happening. I needed the full experience. So yes, idk what glasses people were needing, I could see the sun perfectly fine. The spots and eye-pain afterward was just a bonus feature
I've been had! Welp, the cat's already outta the bag now, so might as well tell ya the truth; I'm actually a serial-killer-cop... aka, a cop. You can run, but you'll never be able to hide!
Edit: huffing, puffing, wheezing ...ok, maybe you can actually just run a bit, no hiding necessary. I'm going on another break; I need to catch my breath
Well, they often enjoy eating a variety of crayons, for one?
USMC is an independent branch, but does serve under the Navy. They used to be completely independent, until they were placed under the Navy in 1834.
Different responsibilities, roles, training, structure, culture, etc... but they still report to the secretary of the Navy.
I wanna know what Navy Seals eat
