@Squidamii See, and what I can't stand is the og chick cosplaying a poor Victorian child, except watermelon was rare and only the wealthy could afford it in Victorian society. But she's too dumb to know that.
Last year some regrettable cost cutting decisions were made about foodborne pathogen testing, ending 28 years of screening for cyclosporiasis and quickly catching and quenching several outbreaks. Now we still have no idea what the source of this outbreak is. This is the price!!!
Sean Astin, the President of SAG-AFTRA, recently testified before a U.S. House Judiciary subcommittee in support of the bipartisan NO FAKES Act.
The proposed law would protect everyone, not just celebrities, from unauthorised AI-generated replicas of their voice and likeness.
@JayShan0506@NekoAndyNya It is also a word most simply will not use for another human being because of that. As the comment is made towards a foreign player, it is taken as racist, bc they didn't say it about another Chinese player, but a foreigner. Therefore... Racism.
@JayShan0506@NekoAndyNya So, in English, calling a person a mongrel is ALWAYS either racist or ableist. There is no kind or nice way of calling someone that. It's not a word we give grace for. It had a history of oppression and dehumanization.
Lo que casi nadie sabe más bien es que esto, como reliquia medieval, es totalmente falso. El cinturón de castidad de hierro para garantizar la fidelidad de la esposa mientras el marido andaba en las cruzadas nunca existió, es un mito que se montó mucho después. Lo enterró completamente el medievalista Albrecht Classen, que se leyó todo lo que se ha escrito del asunto y no encontró nada real, ni un sermón ni una ley de la época lo mencionan y algo así aparecería. La primera vez que aparece dibujado, hacia 1405, es en un tratado militar lleno de artículos de broma y fantasía, con un carro tirado por gatos incluido, y acompañado de un pie de chiste sobre "los calzones de las mujeres de Florencia". Es evidentemente una nota cómica.
Las piezas que veis en los museos son falsificaciones de los siglos XVIII y XIX. El propio Museo Británico admite que la suya es falsa, y la del Museo de Cluny que le atribuían a Catalina de Médici se analizó y resultó ser de principios del XIX, siglos después. Se fabricaron entonces, igual que la "doncella de hierro" y otro montón de aparatos de esos que andan por los museos de la Inquisición para vender una Edad Media bárbara y oscura y quedar ellos de modernos y civilizados por contraste y desde esa incomprensión, alimentar fetiches morbosos.
Republicans in North Carolina just proposed a bill that says if a woman is caught with an IUD or attempts to get an abortion then men are allowed to use DEADLY FORCE to try and stop her. They are proposing a bill that will allow men to kill women for using birth control. It’s House Bill 1232. Keith Kidwell is the Republican who proposed the bill. He claims it counts as self defense to use deadly force to stop abortion. This is a man who claims to be pro life. Feel free to give his office a call and let him know how you feel about his opinion.
And for anyone who says “obviously this will never get passed” that’s not the point. The point is it’s fucking insanity that a government official would even try to make a law like this. It’s insanity that there are men out there who are trying to make it legal to kill women for making decisions for their own bodies. This is real and it’s happening right now in front of our eyes.
