“Mmm, strawberry daqueri!”

“Tont” sounds like a term you look up in Urban Dictionary

Same. I did it with all the “moe” communities as well, really cut down the spam when browsing.

They look like they’re stoned and someone just came in and asked if they want anything from the corner store.

Unfortunately your support has helped bolster the viability of the model, it’ll be the norm eventually and there won’t be a way of getting most games without a paid service. Canceling won’t be an option at a certain point, that’s how these things work.

This is exactly what people were warned about with “games as a service” nonsense. No one wanted to listen.

They wouldn’t be doing it if there wasn’t a plan to get consumers to be paying more in the end.

I advocate overthrowing Elon Musk directly off the end of a long pier.

If I do a job efficiently that doesn’t mean my boss should then get to then extract free labor out of me. It’s why hours alone are a poor way of judging labor value, and it results in a vicious cycle of demanding more and more productivity from workers with them getting less for it.

I think the work day for most types of work should be shortened with no reduction in pay because it’s been proven that many industries can reduce the work week to 32 hours with no drop in productivity, and in fact it comes with savings for the business (ex. less time running facilities and services, better use of resources).

If a customer is provided a quote before hand then that should just be the price, if the contractor can’t provide what was promised in the time frame they themselves gave then that’s on them.

There needs to come a point where the workers themselves start receiving the benefits of their own efficiency – when time is created it should be workers who get that time back for themselves, instead what we see is that the CEOs syphon up all that extra time for themselves and either work less or convert it into money for their own pocket.

This behavior is more a response to the notion that a work day should be 100% productivity at all times, but that’s not how most jobs work nor how human beings do work.

I get paid to do a certain job, if I’m given 6 hours to do a job and finish it in 3 and then do nothing for the next 3 hours that’s not me being lazy or taking advantage of my employer.

This kind of cycle back and forth between full-throated conservative idiocy and then demanding to be saved from the consequences of their own actions is what really makes me so depressed about the majority of voters.

I could excuse a young person maybe for being naive and inexperienced enough to think conservativism might have some kind of merit, but grown-ass adults have literally no excuse to ever believe the right-wing ever about anything.

Not just in the UK, but everywhere.

"And thus it was that the Great Finger Lords, thralls to Gordana the Pulchritudinous, cast their withered finger-bodies into the Well of Sanguine Apoploxy, shattering the Piteous Eye, and covering the vale in a shadow of fingers.

Only when the Order of the Beshivered Spindle is restored upon the Great Finger-ruine Mountain will Bodkin the Befingered, with his Great Spear of Unreturning, return to rebuild the Yeoman’s Sepulchre and return the Affrighted Digitus, with its many weird, tiny baby-faced fingers, to its finger-realm. Fingers."

What spoilers? That you fight a big, weird-looking boss with multiple baby heads or something at some point? The game’s story is not exactly full of twists and turns.

“Should men be allowed to participate in sports events for women and girls?”

Really the most appropriate response to this framing is that men aren’t participating in women’s sports.

We all have both sets of the genes that control whether our bodies express male or female secondary sex characteristics. We’re born with both male and female genetic code and it never goes away, it’s simply a matter of which are being expressed and which are not.

The reason HRT works is because tipping the hormone balance from majority male to majority female or vice versa is telling the trans persons body “express female/male genes now” which results in real biological change, the same changes that cis people experience, the same genes that would be active were the person born as their target sex. After transition, trans people are biologically closer to their target sex than their birth sex, the literal tissue of their body has changed.

This study just bears that truth out.

What a crazy face, that’s awesome

We all do what our bones allow us to, that’s all that can be asked.

No handing over needed, we will pry them from Biden and McConnell’s dead hands, turn the cart around 180 degrees and then make it do a kickflip over their corpses.

Doug Ford needs to move off the end of a pier.

No, I’m talking like the OP made an allusion to an event that happened in the United States. It’s unclear what the OP is attempting to achieve by pretending the shootings at Kent State are some well kept secret.

No…where did I say that?

Is there some other country that’s dealing with a crackdown on student protests at the moment where referencing Kent State would be salient?
