While that may be true in many cases, it is important to remember that straight people are perfectly capable of being hateful, homophobic monsters. Placing all the blame of LGBT hate on LGBT people, openly or not, isn’t nearly the whole story.
I actually think your hypothetical smoker is a great example of the opposite. Someone who lived it, understands the struggle, and ultimately regrets their choices is exactly who you want to hear from. It’s why the really cheesy don’t smoke PSAs don’t ring a chord with most people, they don’t feel genuine.
I don’t think Thoreau is some enormous hypocrite, but I do absolutely understand why some people might feel bitter about it when they learn the greater context.
IMO the laundry thing is an easy example of the larger issue of extreme privilege. Being able to live on a rich friend’s property in the woods by a pond sounds awesome. I’m sure I would love that and it would do amazing things for my well-being. But that’s just not a relatable thing for most people and it can really sour the message.
Sounds like a skill issue. Just don’t die and you won’t die.
Melting without breaking. It’s cheese and emulsifier mixed together so the oils don’t separate out. People often use egg for the same reason when making cheese sauces.
Except, ideally, a PhD thesis. Which should contain a completely new piece of information for the world.
Very cool combination. How are you managing single sign on with all those services?
I couldn’t believe no one wanted to hear about increasingly obscure generative AI news so I made a whole project to prove it.
I’ve been looking for something like this for a while. Going to try it out today, thanks!
Tencent has a minority stake in Larian. That’s very different from being wholly owned and managed by them.
I would immediately vote for this if they managed to get it on as a ballot initiative. Voting in a democracy is a right, not a privilege.
Moving to an even larger company that has less experience with physical “fun” products isn’t likely to be good for the core game. D&D is already at odds with the hardcore community despite the success of the movie and BG3.They don’t need more licensed content, they need to rethink their creative process and how they interact with the core tabletop community. I just don’t see how Tencent is the place for that.
Otherwise known as: boomers wanting to downsize are making a whole bunch of cash with which to do it and are finally paying a fair portion of their net worth.
Asphalt is pretty amazing given the amount of wear it goes through. It’s basically infinitely recyclable, very flexible, goes down fast, and is relatively easy to work with.
The article seems to imply that speed is relative to the star who’s nova formed the black hole. That speed from the headline is seen only for moments after formation.
It is entirely natural to want to not die. It’s pretty unfair to blame the victim (even a victim guilty of a terrible crime) for the suffering caused by a process they didn’t consent to.
IIRC 2 and 3 (and possibly 4) were filmed together.
Giant AI generated walls of text posted by people that aren’t qualified to proof them for factual content may as well be spam. It’s an increasingly common thing I see here and it provides no value.
Yes, mocking him by calling him gay, as an insult. I understand you don’t think that’s an insulting thing to be called and that he would, but using it in a derogatory way at all is still more harmful than helpful.
I’m not calling you hateful or anything, I just wanted to point out the issues with this very common argument.
