  I’ve been summoned

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your answer? And in the picture which news story is being reported?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think I have a single clear memory of any news story ever. I have vague half-remembered snippets.

  The best I can do is 9/11 but I was well into my teens at that point, and even then my memory of the news itself isn’t clear.

  I remember what my local news anchor looked like. That’s absolute it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨chat is this real⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It absolutely has 6 floors, and counting as the Americans do with ground floor being floor 1, then the top floor would be floor 6.

  I can’t find good photos so I’m using Google Earth, but I kinda agree with OP, I find 16 quai de bondy bears more resemblance than 6 rue burdeau, even accounting for foreground. Rue burdeau is way too close to those points of interest.

  But as you said, it’s all inspiration anyways. Interesting that there’d still be some identifiable landmarks in the background if the foreground is all just kinda made up.

  It’s not unholy, it’s just less holy. There is still one hole.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are you ladies doing tonight ⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Wrong.
  It’s called swamp water, and as kids we loved it. Mixem all up!

  I’m not sure how you measure if bait was successful, but it is indeed a sad state of affairs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gotta get those tickets!⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That was a bit of hyperbole on my part.

  The baby has hands, the hands are on the floor, the hands are soon to be in the baby’s mouth. That’s what I was getting at. When a baby is on the floor, floor dirt will be getting in the baby’s mouth.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gotta get those tickets!⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  As in go play outside, and be with friends.
  Not as in put your face on the arcade floor.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gotta get those tickets!⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Right?

  My concern is the cleanliness of that patch of floor though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨There was no need to ever improve upon THIS⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The only complaint I have with this is that you can’t control which vents are open when you turn on front defrost. I prefer a button for each vent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No um actuallys for the love of god 😭⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Um ackshuly there is no love of god 🤓

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Simpler times?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You mean the other reply you gave me where you either misquoted it or you misunderstood the study? And you artificially limited the scope to a single kind of hurt which wouldn’t even capture the kind of hurt we’re discussing here?
  Actually I tried to find the study that you’re talking about and I can’t find it. Did he actually do a study on this? Afaict he is just a self-help author. I cant even find any formal education related to the subject.

  Meanwhile if you do a quick search for if unresolved trauma leads to violence, you see a ton of research supporting that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Simpler times?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  50/50 is a HUGE correlation.
  Incidence of DV is way less than 50/50 in the general population.

  Besides, it’s not just DV or SA, it’s also smaller things. You can hurt people without rising to the level of assault.

  Hey, we’ve got an edgelord over here. Hey everyone, look at the edgelord! He’s edging!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Simpler times?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I figured, I was being silly 😛

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Simpler times?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you lived through 2006 then you’re too old to enjoy having a couple of highschool goths fawn over you 😏

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Simpler times?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “Hurt people hurt people” is a common saying for a reason; dealing with trauma is difficult and not dealing with it often leads to problems.
  That’s not to say that victims always become victimizers, it’s to say that the cycle of violence often begins with violence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Simpler times?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because girls have cooties. Didn’t you know this???

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We need a Thomas the Tank Engine horror game⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  To be fair, it was made by a single dude. Not even a small indie studio, just one guy.

  It doesn’t make it more fun, but it makes it more impressive and deserving of slack.

  Ah yes, dick dick, my favorite movie

  As much as I want it to run tall wise, there is clear evolutionary pressure to run longwise so the dog doesn’t fall out of the bun.
  There is no way the hotdog could evolve sanding upright

  Is that going clockwise or counterclockwise?

  I struggle to believe that someone who writes English as well as you, and is familiar with the subject can misread what I’ve written so grossly, except by intention.

  using someone’s preferred pronouns doesn’t harm anyone.

  This post is about being made to use someone’s preferred pronouns. The context of this whole discussion is the usage of preferred pronouns. The pronouns being discussed are preferred pronouns. The harm being discussed is harm (or lack thereof) in using them.
