wow that’s a lot of words. so, basically, you want a term to say ‘i’m straight, but i’d never date a trans person’, but you want it to somehow shield you from any suggestions that you might be somewhat transphobic, and you want it to free you from any obligation or expectation to introspect and unlearn the transphobia that society has programmed you with?
that’s fascinating. i was unfamiliar with tempeh and just read a bunch of wikipedia about it. i’ve been making my own tofu (usually out of black beans) for a while, but never tried tempeh.
so there’s three methods i’m aware of:
i’m a fairly deft hand at pottery. i’m also decent at fiber crafts. depends when and where during the stone age, of course, that’s a pretty big expanse. if i’m really lucky, i’d be in one of the many cultures with special spiritual roles for trans folks. i’ve also got good rote memorization skills, so i can help with oral history.
capitalism is the system whereby greed is raised above all other human impulses though. in most other systems, sure, people can be greedy, but they aren’t rewarded for it, and people who aren’t naturally greedy don’t get pushed and trained to be greedy as the highest aspiration.
seems to work now!
borderlands science in borderlands 3 is probably my all time favourite mini-game in a video game
is the link broken for anyone else? it seems to just redirect to the imgur homepage.
i assume they mean this definition, and not a hairdresser’s.
there’s some niche communities i occasionally check in on on reddit, but i’ve basically abandoned the site ever since the api debacle killed my preferred app. i mostly just browse on mobile so a decent app was important to me.
this is operating under the erroneous assumption that modern terfs have any connection to feminism beyond the moniker.
i don’t remember that bit, but i’ve only read all the way through it once, and that was a long while ago.
it looks like a stoop to me, but maybe you know better.
nobody, i’d guess. everyone just vibecodes their own personal shovelware. if theres any bugs, they just make some new slop and hope it’s less buggy than the old slop.
what the heck is going on with the stairs just kinda ending?
i don’t doubt that that is an added benefit. but the timing of his new human accessory (right after another shitty CEO got assassinated) seems to lend strong evidence to the ‘human shield’ hypothesis playing a roll. the kid can be both a PR move and a meat shield.
back when they were trying to do steam machines, i was saying that’s what they needed. even if it was just a limited time exclusive, like hl3 comes out on linux in june, and on windows in december, it could’ve done a lot to solidify their os and hardware scheme. now though? idk if there’s enough hype remaining around the idea of hl3, and steamOS is already a success due to handhelds, and proton has made it way more appealing to do games from linux in general, so i don’t think it’d be so dramatic of an effect, and they’d probably lose out on sales to people who’re really into windows.
all that said, exclusives are usually the deciding factor when choosing between systems. linux has never really had a ‘killer app’. nobody wants to develop a program exclusively for linux because of its small market share, and it stays at a small market share because its competitors have important exclusives that folks can’t bear to go without.
i can’t think of any reason it would.
