The longer you look, the stranger it gets. I am loving the gear stick.

I will say, lots of people in my state remember the 2008 Economic Crisis as being caused by Obama.

When economic independence is rare, divorce is rare.

That is definitely Ryo-Ohki. Be prepared for when it changes into a spaceship.

This Nerdwriter video helped me understand his approach to speaking. https://youtu.be/_aFo_BV-UzI

It looks like a portrait of a military general.

But there is surely room between “controlled by the government” and “not accountable for the content on its platform.”

Not OP, but most of what I watch is on Youtube as well except for Lindsay Ellis and The Great War.

I think this is a common misconception about how electability works in a first-past-the-post voting system. There is no benefit to going with a compromise position or reaching out to moderates. The number of people who can be persuaded to vote one way or another is miniscule. The number of people who can be persuaded to vote or not to vote is massive.

If people are excited or scared, they come out to vote. With disenfranchisement primarily focused on progressive and minority voters, there’s not much left to gain in scaring regressive conservatives more, they already vote at high numbers.

What is being strange? Am just a normal warm-water port-loving Americain like you.

And if they hear this information, they may stare blankly, refuse to take in the new information, then respond with a thought-terminating cliche like “God only made two genders.”

Actually like this: https://youtu.be/dF98ii6r_gU?si=auFnMHOAwPi3UWlz

I found it compelling to watch, but not exciting. Kind of in the same way Mr Rogers and Bob Ross held my attention without much happening. Something very real about it.

The very next book? Let Us Follow Him

The countries with declining birthrates have also seen the destruction of their wetlands. The connection is so clear.

Imagine for a moment that you are president of the United States and you are given an intelligence briefing with information that is vital to an allied nation’s safety. Under no circumstances are you to share this information with anyone. You are then in a candid two-hour conversation with a jovial diplomat from a nation hostile to that other nation. If you didn’t keep your wits about you, you might accidentally discuss the secret information.

Donald Trump is not a man who has ever had his wits about him.

Most bees are daughters

-Spoiler- The strongest moment in the game uses the control scheme as story and character development. Only the older brother can swim. After he’s died, you hit a dead end with deep water in the way. You use the older brother’s control stick to swim through it, relying on what he left you with.

I think a lot of people are misunderstanding what’s going on here. There is an open league and a league restricted to women only.

Without a women’s league, there are fewer women seen playing, which reinforces the perception that it’s not a sport for women, which creates this feedback loop leading to a smaller pool of women playing chess, thus fewer grand masters who are women. I see value in creating more space for women in chess to create more opportunities for following generations.

I don’t like excluding trans women. I can imagine an argument that we’re not ready for this until we get to a place where we don’t think to distinguish between trans and cis women. A women’s league in 2023 that a young cis girl is watching that had 3 cis women and 97 trans women, still may look to that young girl like a league for trans women, and not a league for all women that they can see themselves competing in. Personally, I enjoyed watching a marginalized gender eSports competition, and I don’t think the presence of trans women invalidated the impact it could have inspiring young cis girls to pick up gaming.
