@jessiegender I'm guessing you've been blocking or actively removing those comments, for which I'm grateful, but I hate that you have to do that. I just scrolled through a couple hundred comments to report any you missed and didn't come across any. It's just fucking yikes.
@qikipedia So something about blood oxygenation? That would explain the pills for women in the adult toy store, they're vasodilators and caffeine for the most part. Please always talk with your doctor about them, and drink twice as much water as you think you need for them.
@niauropsaka@ContraPoints Production costs: Like $1000, a gifted bottle of Cognac, and a vial of glitter.
Production value: "Am I watching a James Cameron directed feature film or a video essay?"
Video essay quality: PEAK.
Run time/patience ratio: Doesn't even have to tell you not to check the time code.
@RebelComicNerd I have to get tested again, too. For my insurance to cover it, no therapy for a month. They only cover one mental health appt, once a week, and ADHD is tested in four sessions. Let's pretend this taking five years to schedule is NOT because of my already diagnosed ADHD, shall we?
@hankgreen Excellence is one of my favorites lately. It's lack of Schwa appeals to my childhood love of Tolkien, and it flows so beautifully. The swingy feeling of the double "L" feels like a very soft hill you just bounce over. And the meaning is something to aspire to.
@EBwiz@FreyaHolmer A few years ago I had a call with a real telemarketer who very confidently answered all of my objections for 3 minutes. Finally, one of my objections stumped her, and she paused and said "I'm sorry, I didn't understand that. Can you please try again?" And that's when I realized.
@ThoughtSlime MILDRED. YOU DRAW. YOU'RE AN ARTIST. Think of how many awful drawings you had to make before you made cool drawings. And you make VERY cool drawings! Music is the same way, but with sounds instead of lines and colors. Just like results differ, learning differs. That's good!
@DaveIsTrying@ThoughtSlime That is an excellent description of the best way to learn. Like yes, formal education is effective, but you best learn the ins and outs of instruments during practice that are just playing around and making noise until you get it.
@ThoughtSlime I'll happily teach you ukulele! Like, with genuine pleasure. Alternately, I learned from an app, so I could send you the app if you want! Ukes are CHEAP and skills transfer to other instruments if you love it!
@MinaEnRage @ginamartinuk And look, I know it's a small thing, but he did all of that in a defensive fighting posture while baring his teeth. Every signal of a person experiencing a traumatic reaction. I would have been terrified, nevermind that he just trashed the party she may have spent ages on.
@RabbiHarvey I was always taught to spend time around non-Christians and live Christian ideals to their fullest as a demonstration of Christ's love. Evangelise without words, just with acts of kindness. That church is gone now, but I hope thatv TYPE isn't. I'm not Christian anymore, though.
A day after of the Taliban BANNED female university education, women & girls have come out on the streets of Kabul protesting against the decree.
They chant —“Either for everyone or for no one. One for all, all for one”
