RETURN TO CRABB
Many fall in the face of chaos, but not this one, not today
RETURN TO CRABB
Fantastic, this got me chuckling!
This article feels like it was written by an old man yelling at clouds. “… Back in my day we smoked mid and we liked it” shakes fist and then uses it as a reason to go back to prohibition. Why can’t we just make it legal and let the free market figure it out.
Turns out more THC for the buck means people can make a few months supply of edibles out of a few grams. Cost effective!
An opinion that ignores all actual research.
Gender affirming surgery helps 99% of people who receive it! So sure, technically, there’s a tiny minority who regret it. More people regret Lasik and boob jobs, should we ban those too? Many people regret a night out drinking, how about we ban that too. Drinking causes way more harm than giving estrogen or testosterone pills to folks.
On the other hand, I like that my friends have the freedom to express themselves any way they want. They aren’t hurting anyone so let’s let them be free to wear whatever clothes they want and take whatever hormones they want.
So join the side of American freedom and let’s stop policing what clothes people wear or what name they use.
With an open field, who would you vote for president?
Now given the field has two candidates, who do you think will do a better job between the two? I’m actually curious to hear your answers and why.
Your comment here indicates you think being able to talk over others is an important part of the job. Why do you see that as an important attribute? Does the President of the most powerful country in the world often need to be the loudest person in the room? Do they need to dominate conversations, preventing other people from talking, to do their job effectively?
Make that hose in their hands an electric guitar and they’re ready for the Waterworld equivalent of WITNESS ME
This looks uncannily like my shelf, I’m trying to buy land now for my permaculture forest 😭
When I first learned to bake bread and pizza.
Five years later I was 60lb/27kg heavier and needed to go on keto to break the bread habit. Sigh. Took me almost as long to lose an the weight, but I’ve kept it off now for almost ten years!
I’ve been in charge of hiring a few jobs now and I make sure to not care about any of the typical signals when interviewing. I tell recruiters and candidates alike that I’d “hire three racremoveds in a trenchcoat if they could turn requirements into working code”.
I’ve hired quite a few folks who didn’t fit the typical mold, because they could write some sweet code. Who cares about eye contact, I want honest, hard working problem-solvers.
The biggest thing my less social folks struggle with (for anyone curious) is requirements gathering. That often takes interviews and repeated interactions with customers. But it’s a skill like any other. Practice brings improvement!
I know a Thomas too! He’s the straight cis eye of a queer hurricane. And it wasn’t always this way, he just keeps pulling folks into his massive orbit. Folks who later realize they are queer. He never brings it up or even seems to notice.
I finally realized what’s going on and it’s just a little weird. Like, what the hell is going on? Do my friends even have free will?! Do I?!
I conclude that Thomas has such a pure heart and loves so freely that he innervates people with restless souls. They/we are drawn to this vibe like planets in his solar orbit.
I should write him a poem about this
Thomas’ pure heart
Orbit for expanding souls
A queer hurricane
Whoa this song absolutely slaps. I’m so glad you posted this!
Yeah, TBF I was really just making a snarky dig at the misogyny in the evangelical world.
I can immediately think of a counter example: the Golden Compass. It’s written by a man, but basically takes the stance that the devil is the good guy and has a main character whose best skill is the ability to lie so well she can pretty much always get what she wants. The church equivalent abuses children and looks the other way about it when confronted 💀
Unsurprisingly that series isn’t too popular among fundies
Witchcraft is fine. Every evangelical I know was allowed to read Hobbit, LOTR, Dune, Narnia.
The problem is witchcraft written by women
This is great, thanks!
I forgot Dead Cells! It’s so goooood.
And how could I forget Darkest Dungeons! MANY HAVE FALLEN IN THE FACE OF CHAOS, BUT NOT THIS ONE, NOT TODAY 😭
I’ll have to add Hollow Knight to the list, thanks for the suggestion
It’s my first playthrough and my makes my heart feel big feels. Also makes my blood pressure skyrocket. That wind level had me so tense, but then the feather came out and I was like who is cutting onions in here
We’re living in a golden age of indie games! I’ve been loving games like:
If you want good bigger budget games there’s still great options like:
I used to get nauseous every morning for no reason. I still do, but now I have a reason
Golden chandelier sure is proud about his efforts to oppress his fellow Americansenemies. He really hates Americans having freedom I guess
So teachers must never share any details about their personal lives and only ever speak about books?
One would think that reflection of the impact of literature on ones personal life is an important part of analysis.
Also that teachers should be fully and authentically present for their students, not just glorified YouTube lectures.
