Right, just as much as calling gay people mentally ill makes them straight.

I wouldn’t even call it ‘pray’ since that’s a special word they made up. Just call it talking to their imaginary friend in their head.

My DNA is a sexually transmitted disease

The first things I recall learning to make for myself were marmalade sandwiches and this concoction of pinto beans, sausage and cheese. I’d heat it in the microwave, which in classic American tradition was made by an offshoot of a defense contractor, Litton. The first thing I learned to cook on the stove, when I was 7, was scrambled eggs.

What I don’t get is that a dick the size or shape of an eggplant would just not work, for anything.

Mainly I was pining for turn-based Phantasy Star. I’d accept DnD. I was out of the gaming world from 2005-2020. I could have looked harder, it’s true, and that’s why I’m asking questions.

Is that how those work? I’ve been thinking about BG3. I suppose the first RPG I ever played was a Gold Box SSI game set in the Forgotten Realms so I’d probably like it.

One of my favorite series, Phantasy Star, moved from a turn-based RPG in the 80s to an action RPG since 20 years ago (PSO, PSO2). What if I don’t want to play an action game? I don’t get what happened to the old style of RPG.

The video length was pretty limiting, though. Instagram at the time started doing 15 second videos. The six seconds lent itself to goofy comedy and not much more.

It seems like they should have sold it. Or just jammed in a bunch of ads… maybe an option to remove ads with a paid membership. Simply killing it doesn’t make any money other than to avoid losing more, and they’d already invested a fair bit which you can’t recoup by just closing something. Of course, Google does that all the time I guess.

Twitter clearly mishandled it. All they needed to do was give the option to post longer videos. Classic example of a large company buying a small innovative service and destroying it for no reason. I assume they thought it was too similar and in competition with Twit’s existing ability to post videos.

Someone cited recently how much we were paying a year just for air conditioning in Afghanistan: $20 billion. Meanwhile we’re like “hey, maybe children shouldn’t be starving in school and forced to throw their lunch in the trash at the end of the line if they can’t pay for it, maybe states shouldn’t be sending parents to collections for a $90 kid’s lunch bill” and conservatives: WHO’S GONNA PAY FOR THAT??

There’s an $18 minimum wage in Denver, for instance. Republicans sure as hell didn’t vote for that.

Yes, I can hear them. Usually it’s not a problem but I have had 1-2 power adapters that annoyed me.

That’s fine, since he’ll lose the appeal and have to pay her. I doubt the Supreme Court, as lame as they are now, cares to hear this.

I see, so you summed it up poorly. This is also, you’re right, one of those bullshit right-wing hit job ‘journalism’ things where they edit the shit out of footage to make it fit the pre-existing agenda they’re trying to prove. Correct that people here wouldn’t take that seriously, since we’re not the target market for that kind of manipulative tripe.

It’s also misleading to say that most porn sites are owned by one company. You could say that one company has majority market share of one type of site - streaming video.

Can you specify what company you mean and provide a citation for the ‘what 12 year olds want to see’ part?

Yep, I can’t speak on the decline of quality because it was a site that was early to dark pattern bullshit. It would show up prominently in Google search and then tease “you have to sign up to read the answers”. Uh, no. Reminds me of expert sexchange or whatever that site was that got smashed by stackoverflow for similar reasons.

Yandex has a large office in Amsterdam. Not sure where its all served from but they have offices in 12 countries.

Nice! I have a friend with an original Berzerk standup.
‘intruder alert…’

Interesting. I was wondering how it would work at all with such a thin atmosphere. The author could chill out a bit though.
