That looks amazing! Is it in graphite? Pen? It’s hard to tell. Lol

I second the suggestion to give them to Israel.

I wish her the best. We’re also taxed the same for menstrual products in the US.

btw did y’all hear that in 2024 the first

the FIRST

study that measured metals in tampons from multiple brands revealed that they contain SEVERAL toxic metals including arsenic, lead and mercury?

I wish I’d known how much pot space fruits and veggies need to thrive. Indeterminate tomatoes are supposed to have at least like 20 gallons.

Hillary is a POS. But to blame it on her, at least entirely, makes very little sense. There are numerous reasons why he won… despite the fact that HE lost the popular vote against her.

1. indoor grow setups/storage/fertilizer with the best lights. for both what you’re probably thinking, and for my houseplants.
2. enough wood/other materials for a shit ton of trellising and soil components for my garden next year.
3. If there’s anything left over, I’d donate it.

my interpretation, at least:

the trap is the government (the US’ in this example, perhaps) promising freedom of speech/unlawful search and seizure; but then terrorizing and inflicting violence upon those whose opinions they disagree with, but much more regularly and openly.

Those trapped think they are protected from such retaliation because they have ignored/permitted/trivialized the systemic violence against marginalized groups that has been prevalent for centuries. They ignore the signs of their country’s propensity for fascism, and its intentional increase of brazenly hateful rhetoric and policies.

But they are by no means exempt, and many won’t realize that until it’s too late.

interesting! I love learning about the different kinds of logic languages use. visually, Thai is one of my favorite languages (and Thailand has my favorite cuisine, too)!

Your question is a little unclear.

If you’re talking about a debate, or needing to approach someone about something, it’s best to go in as prepared as possible and address any new arguments as they come.

However, the other person has to feel like they’re being heard, understood, and (often) validated in some form—even if it’s not completely genuine—if there is ever a chance of getting them to change their mind.

If this is a personal (or professional) conflict, though, be careful. To some people, it doesn’t matter what you say or how you say it, even if they’re in the wrong.

Yes; I do everything solo, for the most part. They’re generally pretty easy.

Though I like Shadowheart too, I had a crush on Karlach pretty much immediately. I had no choice but to romance her. She’s so sincere and adorable!

you forgot these hits:

• Oops! I Did it Again??? (running into things so often that you’re constantly finding bruises you don’t remember getting)
• Analysis Paralysis
• Justice Sensitivity (it totally helps to live in a fascist state)
• Having Mental Breakdowns Over Trivialities Disorder✨️
  • Hard mode: surprise, PMS too! fuck you loser lol

Gee. It’s almost like language evolves!

What would you prefer that people say instead?

yeah, but some people will in there for life regardless. perhaps one of them will feel an overwhelming urge to dispatch justice. :)

probably not, but a girl can dream.

apparently there’s some law in the UK that mandates it now 🙄

when I was in high school, I found a puppy (not totally sure, but I’m guessing a pit bull/lab mix) on the porch of my parent’s place a few days before Christmas. Best guess is someone dumped her off at the property, since it’s a farm in a relatively remote area.

Anyway, I convinced my parents to let us keep her. Charlie was an extremely beautiful and sweet dog. But eventually I left for college and moved away.

During the last few years of her life/she would act erratically around me when I’d visit. One second she’d be happy to see me, and the next she growled and snapped at me, and did this to others, too. I ended up having to avoid her entirely. Devastating, to say the least.

We never found out why, despite visits to the vet. Dementia, perhaps.

If you actually look at at the graphs, they all show a pretty significant and stead drop over the decades.

if you actually read my comment, I’ve already mentioned its decline. maybe you need a refresher. :)

means at least 87% of the population don’t hold this view.

thanks. believe it or not, I do know how percentages work. But at no point did I claim that most of the population feels this way.

A group of people doesn’t have to be a majority to be statistically significant. If 13% of people suddenly woke up with arms growing from the tops of their heads, you’d be noticng them all the damn time, unless you’re a recluse.

This absolutely has a real-world effect on who is voted into office, especially when you also consider which demographics vote. And consequently, less exposure to women in politics in office = a slower rate of acceptance of them.

Not to mention, again, the rise of conservatism that is certainly not helping the matter.

So while my experience is ancedotal, this shows

Yeah so as I mentioned, I’ve had a different experience. Are you a woman? Do you frequently seek out discussions about/research on/history of women? gender studies? inequality?

Because otherwise, there’s no wonder why you haven’t experienced what I have.

Your experience doesn’t show anything. Neither does mine, because anecdotes are not, nor ever will be, valid evidence of anything useful in discussions about social or political issues.
