I like the variation in planets they’ve added and have always really wanted to like this game. I also like how they added a more casual mode that doesn’t require constant grinding.
The main issue is that it seems like every mission is fly to a planet, land, interact with one of a few things, then leave.

It’s less about it being gay that’s the problem than the fact that it’s an unspeakably horrific crime.
Intentionally covering for pedophiles, in my mind, removes any shred of credibility for the “moral guidance” offered by said organization. I was raised Catholic but I think even if I hadn’t become irreligious as I am now, I would still shun the Catholic church for a denomination less insanely corrupt and evil.

Excellent point, buttnugget

Yes, he is wrong - whether or not he’s actually confident about it is a bit harder to discern.
Not sure if this was meant to be a counterpoint to my comment.

Might’ve been better paired with Adams. If I’m remembering correctly, when they were going to France, Adams tried to learn the language with rote memorization and conjugation tables and whatnot. Franklin apparently just made up “French-sounding” words.

Can’t really pretend that it’s not interpreted that way by some Jewish people. Not Reformed but certainly among the Orthodox.

And translation issues. Words and meaning can change a lot when something is translated. Leviticus went from Hebrew to Greek to Latin to English (and most other modern languages of course).

That just sounds like masturbation with extra steps

I don’t know, I’ve used chatGPT and have reviewed the sources it uses. Saying Reddit is a “primary source” is blatantly dishonest. Not that dishonesty matters to people like that guy.
- Comment on Women would rather do drugs than go to therapy 1 week ago:
So you agree it’s wrong in that case and excuse it here?
Because I didn’t say anything about men, did I?

No accusation meant toward you, meant OP.
- Comment on Women would rather do drugs than go to therapy 1 week ago:
A film called “Hysteria” from 2011 covers that.
- Comment on Women would rather do drugs than go to therapy 1 week ago:
Even stranger that the title says “women”.
- Comment on Women would rather do drugs than go to therapy 1 week ago:
do women commonly refer to masturbation as “jerking off”?

No one is coming to shackle me for a religious reason. There is essentially zero chance of that happening. Thanks for the useless advice.

That’s ridiculous, if you don’t want to do the job, don’t be a pharmacist.
- Comment on My Religion 1 week ago:
Define “social harm”.

Stop focusing on an arbitrary figure and start focusing on a real progressive income tax with no loopholes or workarounds.

Is it a key difference though ?
Yes, yes it is. Unequivocally so.
If you exploit people that has only one choice : Taking whatever shit job they can… Barely paid enough to survive.
You’re looking at a post for an internship. This is not about “taking any shit job they can”. How is that not obvious to you?
If you exploit people that has only one choice : Taking whatever shit job they can… Barely paid enough to survive.
Desperate people aren’t seeking unpaid internships. Again, painfully obvious.
To some extent I think some big business are borderline slave owners even though you could say all their slaves could leave their job and die from hunger if they wish to do so.
What a fucking disgrace to the historical horrors of chattel slavery. You’re not a slave when you choose to work somewhere and can leave when you want. People having to have jobs to get money to buy good isn’t slavery. A business NOT paying you when you do NO WORK for them is not slavery, you ignoramus.

Well except you get to choose to join or leave. Kind of the key difference between slavery and volunteerism.

The other day I saw a post with a picture of a baby elephant. The source was provided, a published imagine in a magazine long predating what we’re calling AI. Without a doubt a real photo.
Still, the comments were chock full of people absolutely certain it was AI generated. People even added in red arrows and circles pointing out their “proof”. The possibility of AI-generated content has created some kind of collective psychosis.

I’m sorry, do you think it’s somehow impossible for “anti-AI folks” to be lazy? Did laziness get invented in the last five years?
It’s hilarious how much stupidity could packed into a single comment.

I agree but this post isn’t about the Epstein files or Trump.
