Unfortunately for some, that pressure is real and entirely illogical. For the longest time my wife would start getting anxious and frustrated when someone tailgated her and would start to speed up… Only to contue getting tailgated by the same person. Took a lot of insistence from me to not play their stupid game for her to realize that not only was it stupid to speed up for them, but more dangerous and entirely illegal to start speeding just because of a tailgater.

You can also middle click on a tab to close it! Also, middle clicking stuff pinned to your taskbar like the file explorer or your browser opens up a new window of it.

Just admit that you could pay for the content if you wanted to, you just choose not to, because you are a pirate. You are depriving someone somewhere from a sale or some other form of revenue.

I usually can’t, actually. Not immediately anyway. But that doesn’t stop me from paying for it when I can. Done it with plenty of games. And if I didn’t have that option, which I primarily use for games I’m not entirely sure I’ll stick with, well… I just wouldn’t buy it. Full stop. Wouldn’t be a consideration at all. There is no lost sale here, only the potential to fall in love with it enough to buy it when I eventually can.

Not saying this is some moral high ground. It’s not. But plenty of folks just can’t afford to gamble on whether or not they like something and end up paying it forward when they can.

Never go full Karl Jobst…

Kegels are key. If you clench hard enough you can chip the tail off your XX chromosomes and make them XY.

Are they in the room with us right now?

Part of the reason it can be hard to tell is because we cannot see a source of the ambient light shining onto the part of the dress we see. The reason I see white and gold is because my brain defaults to the back lighting being sunlight and the overhead being shaded by tent. Not uncommon at rennaissance fairs and the like. But if you see this all as in door lighting it’s much easier to imagine bright overhead department store lights or something.

So no, no one is stupid for seeing it one way or the other.

What part of TERF ideology is actually feminist and not a thinly veiled mask for conservative-based gender essentialist ideology that feminism at its core has been fighting against since it’s inception, just this time aimed at trans women to protect “real women”?

I’m genuinely curious because all the advocacy I’ve seen from TERFS is all about demonizing transgender women, infantilizing transgender men and… Siding suspiciously often with conservatives more than their supposed ideological ancestors.

We can do both? What’s a rocket scientist going to do about systemic oppression and the rise of fascism that excludes them from working on rockets still?

Late but absolutely

Hello if you see this more than 6 hrs from posting

Just existing is getting a lot of us killed. It ain’t even just the poor anymore, we’ve got real assassinations happening.

Both, the active threat modifier just means you get to engage in vehicular combat directly to sabotage other drivers going for a high score.

Yes please, maybe they’ll fix the shit they’ve been getting paid for decades to fix finally.

You looking for an excuse? No one else brought it up but if you need permission, go ahead. Thumbs up from me.

Sometimes you gotta look at the context. It’s like the US civil war. A good chunk of the country will swear up and down it was fought over states’ rights and leave it at that.

States’ rights to do what?

Slavery.

Yes, women’s “rights” to be transphobic essentially. The J.K. Rowling Women’s Fund, the organization she is founding, uses TERF dogwishtles in their mission statement right on their page. “Overly inclusive policies”. Come on.

Makes it harder to spot the homeless people living in their cars that might want to park there for the night.

You can’t call them that dude 😳
