Removing her from their lives was probably their intent with the bullying. Whether or not they considered death over deportation, they got what they wanted.
Maybe I'm too cynical as an outsider looking on to the US but I don't think these kids will even remember her name in 5 years. Only that they succeeded in preventing whatever DEI /woke word vomit their parents and the media warned them about.
Yeah, same. Never been asked. I've known for a long time I've never wanted to have children.
But that's purely for me. Not for me to pass judgement on anyone who does want kids, it's such a personal choice.
Hell, as a human I'll take that deal. When can I move in?
Good point, but is it chicken or egg?
I think a lot of cities with truly good public transit developed as walking cities. The population was first, and the transit came after. Not always true - look at Barcelona - but my city (Melbourne Australia) is pretty cleanly defined into the part that developed before everyone had a car (radiating train lines serviced by trams), and areas that came after (radiating train lines serviced by buses, or not serviced at all).
You're right, he's only a convicted felon.
All systems have anomalies. A healthy system addresses the anomaly per the rules of the system. An unhealthy system breaks to accommodate the anomaly.
I think at this point it's a lot of nostalgia. But the game does have a lot in it, so once the jank becomes endearing rather than off-putting, it is easy to lose yourself in my experience. There are still heaps of quests and parts of the game I haven't finished. And if I want to replay something, I can approach it very differently each time.
I think it's an okay game. I think it was the best available game with mass appeal (see overlap of marketing with early Game of Thrones) during formative years for a lot of people, which extended and amplified the volume of discourse.
I suppose Chinese mythology and draconic depictions have their own thing too. Thanks for indulging me.
Thanks! For some reason, I've never really considered what I would call a "wingless dragon."
Genuinely asking - are they? I was under the impression they were distinct, though I suppose it's also up to the author in whichever fiction. What's the real-world analogue?
Technically, yes, a keyboard recessed and angled down+away from you would be the best ergonomics. Or tented, so the centre of the keyboard is raised while the left and right sides are flush with the desk, so that your wrists are rotated with palms facing each other. A lot of pro eSports players rotate their entire keyboards by 30-90° to better suit left wrist alignment, since the right hand only has to operate the mouse.
I'll die on this hill - the generic modern keyboard is absolutely terrible for your wrists, and is responsible for so many people having RSI!
Because males as a term had not picked up culturally loaded meaning from those who would exploit them.
I love this album, and really think Kishi Bashi shines when he's performing live. My favourite album of his is definitely the live performance, but his sets at Tiny Desk and Audiotree are my favourite.
