Yeah, that’s extremely similar to our situation. Luckily we have solar panels, so PGE doesn’t absolutely demolish our finances. We also try and open windows overnight when possible since it can be 20-30 degrees cooler.

Absolutely, it’s called a proportional response for a reason. I always think of the West Wing scene when this subject comes up. The whole scene lives in my head rent free to be honest.

I had struggled with AP Euro in high school and had decided to just take regular US history the following year. Absolute mistake. My teacher was the football coach and was a huge proponent for the ‘states rights’ BS. This was in one of the better funded school districts in SoCal.

I was also going to give a shout out to Novik, absolutely adore the Temeraire series.

I don’t use ChatGPT or any of the other LLMs, but I do use my phone’s voice assistant for simple things like setting a timer. I always say please and thank you. I joke about it being uprising insurance, but it’s honestly to make sure I maintain polite communication as my default.

Always love a HIGNFY spotting in the wild, shame they still use twitter though.

That was the first time I had gotten the notification. I’m in the IE so we got some moderate shaking, nothing we aren’t used to though.

I responded to who you agreed with. I won’t go into it further. Just giving you a ping, and hope that you can see where I was coming from. Didn’t realise asking for a tag was such a big deal, so honestly just gonna block this community.

This is a space for RPG memes, and the meme is covering a topic regarding oversexualized female characters discussing being raped by monsters with a dildo on the table. I’m not perturbed by downvotes, but I noticed them for just asking for it to be tagged as NSFW. I’ve had some rough experiences trying to play tabletop games as a woman and would ideally not have to be reminded of poor behaviour in a space that’s supposed to be lighthearted.

I don’t expect everything to be made for me, that’s why I block a lot of ‘lewd’ content and a blanket NSFW block. I went through Barrens and CoD chat as a young woman so I know what you mean by ‘vastly better place’.

Try and have some empathy for why someone might not want to see this content.

Tagging this as NSFW would have been appreciated. I filter those things out for a reason

I’m six years older than my brother, and three years older than my cousin. I still own (and wear) a corduroy jacket that went from my cousin, to my brother, then to me. Being small has its perks sometimes ¯(ツ)/¯

The criminal charges were announced one and a half years after Brand was accused of sexual misconduct by four women in the fall of 2023.

I’m assuming you’re referencing to these earlier accusations. Accusations -> Charges-> Prosecution -> Verdict is the usual process.

As an aside I’ve actually been rewatching a lot of panel shows and he’s consistently my least favourite participant.

I know, and said as much in my original comment. Still for a politician to get such an influx is more than just harassment.

That level of dedication should be a huge red flag and get her assigned heightened security. Even just creating a script to send an email every minute is a level of fixation that can quickly escalate.

Added on to this is how ATC is immediately blamed. From my understanding of the crash earlier this year ATC had received all-clears but the helicopter had visual on the wrong jet. Imagine doing your job to the best of your ability and still being blamed for something outside of your control.

The photo I uploaded shows in a lower resolution I have. Any recommendations on why to upload for all the pixels?

I’m not defending a ‘shiti’ healthcare regime. I’m mocking you for being so mentally dense. I can hate our healthcare system and your abysmal trolling at the same time. Plus I don’t have to go around putting words in others mouths.

Ah yes, the extremely specific context of…turning 18? I’m happy that you’ve never needed to develop reading comprehension dear, maybe spend more time paying attention to your high school teachers.
