I don’t. Preferences set one up for disappointment. I simply use what is offered or whichever has more clean.

Forks for ice cream fresh from the freezer though, they break into it better

The problem with the last one is that while the sacklers fucked everyone, I don’t trust politicians when they interfere in medical treatments.

I think it’s fair for it to be legal, but only in specific locations and contexts. I think small scale gambling between friends and coworkers is fine. I think well regulated casinos are bad but serve as a deterrent to underground criminal gambling. I think having legal gambling through the internet and on your phone, advertised everywhere is a serious problem.

Microphone work and the rest of public speaking can be different skills, especially if you learn public speaking in a way that doesn’t involve a mic. Speaking wants you to keep your head scanning the crowd with your body centered when standing still. If your hands are free it’s good to use them for emphasis, and you’ll want to rest them when not. Standing still in front of a mic feels awkward. This results in decent mic work making you look and feel a bit like a stand up comic. At least that’s my experience with it from doing stand up. Mic work was definitely not the hardest part, but it was a constant balance when learning to keep speaking into the mic without coming off wooden or awkward. It’s also just awkward to hold something in front of your mouth while speaking.

I’m loving the increase in ttrpg content here

Ok that convinces me. That man sings so well

Exit to Eden. Terrible rotten tomatoes score, but it’s awesome and loved by the bdsm community. It’s a 1990s film adaptation of the Anne Rice novella of the same name, which is more or less just classic her style erotica, this one of a man going to a femdom island retreat and falling in love with and impressing the head lady there. Cliche whatever, but pretty good representation of kink despite the outlandish setting. But some executives or someone involved in the movie had a brilliant idea: buddy cop b plot with Rosie O’Donnell. This takes it from a bold and interesting decision that would probably be well regarded by a small group of people, to a movie that’s just kinda fucking nuts in a fun way. The b plot keeps the movie silly and light.

So yeah, if this sounds up your alley I highly recommend it.

Niemoller’s famous poem (“first they came for…”) was about his experience of internal purges in the nazi party, not about their purges of people outside the party

Honestly I expected them to come for Shapiro first

That was also an election that Elon threw so much money into that he temporarily decided he shouldn’t fund politics

Yeah it’s not like I do it all the time, but I do it from time to time. It’s a skill that I think is worth learning

So a Linux phone that works?

On one hand I would love that. On the other hand it would have access to my steam games and that might be a problem

Is neon actually good?

As an engineer from a family of engineers, yeah i wholeheartedly believe that you learned better people skills from the criminally insane than engineers. I had a real tough time learning people skills and emotional resilience

Ouch ouch, but yeah sent this to my domme

The thing about that individual is that everyone involved in any way sucks so fucking hard. They suck. The people following them suck. The people goading them on suck. The hatedom created kiwifarms. It’s a situation where the more involved someone is in the situation the worse they seem to be.

Yeah, we need to switch to quarters as the smallest coin and $10 as the largest. A beer should be a coin.

Oh those will be collectors items someday.

Also, why do we still have dimes?

Nah a wereraven it’s a type of lycanthrope but lawful good.

My buddy had a manic episode and bought an above ground pool because our friends’ parents were out of town for a week when we were teenagers
