It's not true. Crops with multiple harvests give experience for every harvest. (In the first paragraph under Experience Points.)

The stuff about sprinklers looks correct. But I find the lvl 6 sprinklers (Quality Sprinklers) very useful. I'm still using plenty of them on my farm even now that I'm swimming in the materials for the lvl 10 sprinklers.

This isn't true. Crops with multiple harvests give experience for every harvest. (In the first paragraph under Experience Points.)

Maybe you're thinking of how crops that give multiple fruits per harvest (like blueberries and cranberries) only give Exp once per harvest? But if you plant cranberries at the start of the month, you will harvest them 5 times and get Exp every time. I leveled farming to 10 this way in my most recent playthrough.

Multiple answers to that question:

  • There are women on Grindr - in my experience, mostly trans women or m/f couples looking for a third. So men can find straight sex on Grindr, but it's rare. Women are definitely a scant minority of the users.
  • There are plenty of "straight" men on Grindr. You'd have to ask them why - I usually block them.
  • The reason why dating apps marketed towards straight people don't allow this kind of messaging (and the reason there aren't more women on Grindr) is because women, generally speaking, won't put up with the same kind of shit that gay men will. A straight dating app where men could send horny messages and dick pics to every woman they saw wouldn't have any women using it.

Grindr doesn't really have a "match" system. You can send a message to anyone whose profile you can see (unless/until they block you). Think of it less like a traditional dating app and more like an interactive billboard of horny people in your area.

Deafness is commonly understood to include both total and partial hearing loss. Every major dictionary defines it this way. It might have a more precise meaning in some spheres (medical, etc), but in common English it is not binary the way you're suggesting.

Merriam Webster: deaf

Dictionary.com: deaf

Cambridge English dictionary: deaf

This is a state crime, not federal, so he can't pardon himself as president. I think he could if he was governor of New York, which seems like a long shot.

And New York's AG has seemed pretty keen on seizing his property if he wouldn't pay before. Idk if they can do that for these types of fines but I'm sure they will if they can.

I don't think Jenny is on Nebula. She's got a patreon where she releases smaller videos every month, but to my knowledge she's never "left" YouTube - she just takes a long time to create and edit these videos so she can only release them pretty infrequently. She's got a comment pinned on this video saying about as much.

Are you thinking of Lindsay Ellis? She's still Nebula (and maybe patreon) exclusive.

Disney opened an incredibly expensive Star Wars "hotel experience", charging $5k plus for two nights. Jenny Nicholson visited (paying full price) and documented the experience, plus background on how and why the hotel was made, some research into what was going on behind-the-scenes, and the spectrum of fan reactions to the experience. The hotel closed down permanently while she was editing the video, and she also goes into why that happened and some larger trends at Disney surrounding the closure.

Might be easier to start it if you commit to only watching a few chapters at a time. I just finished it after breaking it up into three different viewings and I had a great time.

Jenny Nicholson is a really popular video essayist. She only releases like one of these essay videos a year because she spends so long working on them. (She's got a patreon where she releases a smaller, lower effort video every month.)

The big videos routinely pull in millions of views, so I'm not surprised the algorithm spams it in people's feeds. She's got a lot of followers that watch it right away because they've been waiting for a year to see it, so it shoots to the top of the recommendations for other people in that niche. Then there's a snowball effect where YouTube starts recommending it, more people watch it, so it gets recommended more, etc. You see the same thing on Hbomberguy's yearly video.

As one of her subscribers, I can tell you that this video has been in the works for years, so we've been hearing about it for a long time and were hyped. I just finished it today - broke it up into three different viewings. She breaks all her essays down into chapters so it's easy to watch just a portion of it at a time.

Oh, you're the same user who was lying in another comment thread about trans people beating you up in a coffee shop.

Ironic that you're commenting about politicians making up stories about trans people to scare voters, seeing as you're doing the same thing to win an argument on the Internet.
