This post is not going to express my support for or against the LGBT, for it is quite nuanced. However, I will offer my theory on why this lack of openly gay players exists.

First of all: AFL players aren’t just put into a team. They have to go through years of training before they start professionally playing, in smaller, more local teams. While many gay players might enjoy the sport, many would be deterred from the sport because the training they do before becoming professional has a culture that make jokes about LGBT people, which can be commonly perceived as threatening to their identity.

The truly gay men that do make it through fear loss of respect or sponsorships in a career that they throughly enjoy. They fear losing sporting progress. There always will be those who actively dislike the LGBT, as well as people who deeply support them. This brings about uncertainty.

To conclude, as the world shifts to a more diverse and inclusive society, we are likely to see an increase of openly gay players in sports.

it is 10 kmh it won't make a difference. I'm sure we'd see no more accidents than we do now if we made all 60 roads 80 instead.

At a time I was working in a certain resteraunt, I was in the drive thru and a woman did laps of the drive though asking me how to make an account in the app, and then EVERY. STEP. OF. THE. DAMN. ORDERING. PROCESS. she did a lap of the drive through because she was puzzled and had no idea how to place an order. I suggested we could help her at the front counter but she insisted that she was in a hurry and the app was stupid. In the end, it was just a couple of simple menu items, that I could have added to the order manually within seconds. Some people...

I can't. I'm in the airport waiting for a plane.

How do you input a video into ChatGPT though. Could just do the transcript but a brief description to ChatGPT won’t allow it to grasp the context enough.

Thanks, I read Wikipedia for an hour a day and that was probably the most interesting biography yet. Mostly I just read about places around the world and musicians.

Your choice. But you could go for a run instead of gaming or mow the lawn, make your front yard look nicer, start a YouTube channel or a website for some interest, learn to code and write a passion project, do some creative writing and publish your first 200 page novel; the list is endless. All of those things are work, but most things in that list are FUN. Sometimes downtime can be spent working. I spend my time reading and contributing to Wikipedia and supporting FOSS projects like this fantastic social media site! Because… this site doesn’t throw shit at me with intent to grab my attention with some advanced creepy algorithm. The code is publicly available. These fediverse socials are the only ones that aren’t extremely harmful.

I’d advise to quit gaming and do more work. Then, Linux has no problem. Gaming keeps you poor and lazy.

Are you trying to say that took no effort? Instrumental went hard and the talkbox would have taken some time to develop progression. Especially in the 90s, where digital music technology wasn't widely available. Today, a song like that would be no big deal but at the time, "Around The World" was much ahead of its time.

You don't need gaming, it's a way to waste time.

MacBook / Linux Server combo is meta.

I ignore them. Since January 2022 I've used exclusively macOS & Linux and you can't go wrong with that. macOS for my daily driver work laptop (M1 MacBook Pro) and Arch Linux for my home server, though I do enjoy using it a lot for work and if this mac ever stops working I will definitely build a framework Linux laptop. Nothing comes close to FoSS, don't have to put up with most of this proprietary business-oriented software.

Too many people work a 9 to 5. I sleep a 9 to 5, but 9pm to 5am.

Once a homeless beggar told me “there’s an ATM right there you selfish cunt!”

Worked a late night now I have to do it all over again. I miss the lazy Sunday’s. But oh well this will improve my life in the long run.
