Eve was made from a man's rib, so in a way at first she was a clone of his flesh, XY chromosomes and all. The bible does not elaborate on how the abrahamic god made her into a woman, she was able to bear children so there was definitely a change made to the "original" masculine reproductive system, but we don't know at what stage of her becoming a being that occured. Either way though - Adam's rib was transed by god themself into a woman.

now i'm wondering how all the christian terfs would react if someone said that trans women are actually the original women

yeah exactly, we don't need someone to have a different skin colour to be racist, that's a simple man's racism. us europeans only do the finest of racisms - normal people with normal white skin (my village) vs the weird people with a similar skin but their accents are kinda weird and scary (all the other villages, and especially that one village over there)

(huge /j in case that wasn't obvious)

still doesn't change the fact that that's not a game for kids, and the adults for whom that game was made can make as many bad decisions with their money as they can afford

i'm not in favour of gambling for children don't get me wrong, in fact i was once a victim of it (thanks to wizard101, a game advertised as and marketed for children), but Valve just did not enage in that. if a child is playing a game that's clearly marked "M" or "PEGI 18" then it's the parents' responsibility to figure out if its something appropriate for their child

turnitin once highlighted my page numbering as plagiarism

nahhh, lootboxes existed before CS:GO or TF2. and neither was supposed to be for kids in the first place! card games like MTG were one of the first mass created to use those mechanics

you know what was supposed to be for kids, had (& still has) lootboxes galore and other predatory monetisation tactics? Wizard101 (2008)

i don't see many people complaining about MtG or Wizard101, but folks love to point out how Gaben did a bad thing by taking something that was already a concept (that people liked) and making it digital, whereby he accidentally created something he could never uncreate

 

there's a million different strategies on how to function well with adhd, and some of them even work. but every single time i encounter the same problem - even if something works and improves my quality of life it's always short lived. i get distracted or something happens that throws me off the rhythm and then- i can't restart.

so now i have a mental library of all those tactics that work and very little motivation to try again, it's going to last a week maybe, and then back to being a mess i go.

is there any way to work against that? any point of view i failed to consider? any tactic that is designed to stick? or just something that doesn't work on an assumption that you need to do it consistently for it to work? (and then feel like a failure once you inevitably stop doing it)

all the tips and tricks i googled fail at this step, no book on adhd that i've read highlights this problem, this can't be just me right?

i'm just so tired

vegetable flavoured water? thinnest of broths? realistically, we call it nothing because what would you even do with something that's 15% vegetable puree and 85% water? my only idea would be to add more vegetables to make it into something, or to use it as i'd use regular water to boil other vegetables or make pasta in it

seems accurate. if i had bucket of water and there was a single pea and a lone noodle floating in it i sure as heck wouldn't call it soup, or even think that its intentional

we live in a world where people say stuff like that and mean it, the /s is just so for once we can be sure

 

this bug is happening again to me. the first ad pretends to be muted, while every other one doesn't even bother and it's a constant jumpscare

 

hi there so today i launch boost and get jumpscared by ads playing with sound on by default. i don't mind ads playing muted, but the default being sound on is incredibly infuriating. is this a bug?
