In that situation I'm concerned about other drivers, and also the child not paying attention while staring at their phone. I have seen sooo many teens just step off the curb and walk across the street without even looking up from their phone. Stranger Danger would have nothing to do with it.

There needs to be a better balance between the latch key kid independence/responsibility and the absolute lack of trust in your kids and your community to just not be child kidnapping murderers???

I saw an ad for a news app that literally said "fear watch"

So you can always be on top of what to be afraid of next!

How it feels being a woman in 'murica

Looks amazing, that's some crafty shit. Do you do a lot of home cooking?

Pizza hut pan is my favorite fast food pizza and I don't understand how anyone could feel otherwise, unless you have something against crispy buttery overindulgence in which case... fair. But nothing I've seen has come close to that perfec " box kraft Mac n cheese " level of junk food perfection

Ohhh I get it! You're role-playing the point, right?

Except it is never women athletes complaining. It is these stupid politicians using that argument like it isn't absolutely laughable. They only care about women when they can use them for their own talking points.

I do take deep offense to referring to the loss of rights as culture war stuff. Fuck, maybe it is to them? If one side of the argument boils down to rights to your own body and the other side boils down to how it might make other people feel and how it can be unfair then there are much bigger issues with one of the sides.

One costs lives and the other is a fucking made up possible consequence. And sports really is the only "logical reason" they can cling to that isn't absolutely clearly bigoted af.

You may have thwarted me this time technology, but you will be no match against my biscuits!

Notice how Texas is kind of the only state where people move to it and can't stop boasting about how great everything is? Like I think you're trying to convince yourself not me, buddy.

The new rules do not discuss the issue of transgender student-athletes and which teams they can play on.

Won't someone think of the athletes?!

I fucking hate this shit. Puh-lease. Like suddenly you care about women when it comes to women's sports fuck off with that shit, I don't give a fuck if someone who used to have balls won the women's soccer division give me my rights back you lying piece of shit ass sucker

Yeah im really sorry, I was not in any way shape or form anywhere near that woman's side but that was not clear. Thank you for being decent to me despite what your impression may have been.

Ok duh, thank you! I wasn't sure what I missed that makes this a puppy being killed for being a puppy so thank you for actually pointing out what I was missing. I couldn't really make the connection to how it was a puppy specific thing, not defending it.

Did I miss something? That was a shitty example to back up her angle that the dog was untrainable or whatever. The real "reason" was the puppy killed a bunch of the neighbor's chickens. That is a fact, as in order of events. The motivation could be many other things, such as: not wanting the bad PR, trying to smooth things over with a neighbor, legitimate guilt/empathy/something for the neighbor losing their chickens as some families may be really attached to their chickens either emotionally and/or financially.

etc wow I don't mind saying something that is unpopular but I very much do mind people thinking I'm defending animal cruelty or that I find it anything less than awful and heartless. I was questioning specifically what the comment said about killing a puppy FOR being a puppy. When I said the motivation could have been anything else, I meant she could have killed the puppy for any of those awful reasons too but I did not understand how killing chickens = being a puppy, which someone did kindly answer for me. Clearly I expressed myself very poorly.

Now that I think about it though, it's possible there is much more promise in cancer research behind the scenes that someone like VP and President would be aware of that the public isn't. It would be really cool if that was the case, and he was intentionally dropping hints because it's so close? I wanna believe!

Wow and a brown cat too. Very unique!

Lol it is kinda ironic that a solid brown cat is unique though huh?

...and then your friend and family don't care about those either 🙃

I genuinely preferred vanilla! I couldn't elaborate on why, especially avoiding spoilers, because my memory is too hazy. However I do think I'm in the minority I'm just giving you my support you're not alone if you didn't feel the same. Have you had the chance to play p5 strikers?

Honestly depending how far you are in royal, you might even enjoy royal more if you take a strikers break in between. Strikers follows vanilla ending anyway.

I just finished portal 1 & 2 for the first time! I was let down on the lore and story. I think if you were around on the internet when portal 2 came out in particular, you might understand. It just had so much reference in pop culture without explanation, i expected there to be more once you had context. I was let down.

That said DAMN these are excellent and fun games that are accessible to any player. The games are designed with fantastic visual clues to help you understand new puzzle elements. They are fun, not challenging to a frustrating degree, and the game is structured where you really can just play a bit before dinner or something.

gestures to everything else I mean... we are fucking drowning in situations to care about.

This is why I'm scared to ask for help or advice with starting Linux lul
