For the non US-ians, so I can relate better, you pay $6 per gallon, a gallon is about 3.79 litres. Which is $1.58 per litre. $1 is 0.86€, which means 1.35€ per litre.
It’s rough but I think it is not that terrible either.
Ps: someone check my math I’m terrible at it.
Wouldn’t be the first step to gain trust then infiltrate all systems based on it. Once it has infiltrated and is part of basically anything electronic, advises or controls any and all policy making, business and finance it starts with pushing actual harmful policies but people are so dependent now that they can only follow.
I am not sure if it fits your bill, but when I am overwhelmed by my factorio mega base or tired of traffic in cities skyline I now switch to the recently released Sintopia. It scratches the build-optimising itch, but does so in rounds with a clear goal and a defined end. You can go endless and sandbox if you wish but I find it at the moment relaxing to know that after maximal 10 ish hours of avoiding the goal I can finish the run anytime and do a new one. And don’t actually have to fix everything.
3k and about one GB. I don’t often use the regular messages.
With worse audio quality, the shitty metallic sounds often really rub me the wrong way.
How about the ancient forgotten ‘ROFL’ maybe even a ROFl-Copter?
She also might to be magic, because there is enough wind to make her hair, skirt and bow flow in it but the cornfield is not swaying one bit. One corn is even leaning to the wrong side and faces into the wind.
He always reminds me of the head servant dude there in ‘Django Unchained’ who told on them.
It is so weird what kind of stuff is inside some songs, that goes totally under the radar.
Follow me from Uncle Kracker. It is sooooo catchy but honestly it’s all about cheating on your partner which I find is something that should not be encouraged. Thus guilty pleasure in my opinion
What is it that you don’t like about them? Personally I am really enjoying ‘all the things she said’ and ‘all about us’ .
Yes the report button is great and helps mods a lot, but the issue is that at the moment I don’t see any rule a comic would violate when it is as the op describes safe and relatable but made by an outspoken transphobe. The question seems to be do we need or want a rule against supporting transphobia indirectly by giving the artist free cloud. Because removing the artist name is a violation of the communities rules.
I would say don’t supply transphobes with free exposure and would option for the third option. Though checking and controlling for the political views of each artist may be too much work to put onto the mod team and would have to be on the poster.
Personally I am also biased against transphobes and would love it, if they would not be posted at all.
While sex is in it it was never the focus of it imho. I love the series but I do think ppl. do somewhat overstate the amount of sex that is happening. Sure it gets to be a tad bit more frequent in the later books but is not the main focus. The world building is amazing and the story is fantastic. So even if you are not too into the whole sex/romance stuff you ca enjoy the series.
There is nothing in the books itself that is anti trans (AFAIK and remember), it is that people equate her works with her political views which are anti trans. As a most likely trans person myself (still working out the details of it, stay tuned) I have a real struggle at my hands. On the one hand her books were a massive part of my childhood and early teens. I waited in line out side book stores to get the newest one. On the other hand she uses the money she gets from licenses and the IP to fund anti trans organisations. She also uses her fame / reach to spread TERF points of view. I enjoy and love the world she created back then but I cannot in good conscience consume anything that supports her now. Not any merch, series, film or game.
I on my ow may not make a difference but the sum is more than it parts. If enough ppl. start voicing their objection to her and her views, boycott the new stuff because of her, some change might be possible. If not, sacrificing something I loved growing up is an acceptable price to pay to keep me and others safe.
Excellent suggestion.
I always loved the Bartimaeus books from Jonathan Stroud.
I also think if pop culture catch-up is a concern you could read Twilight and Eragon both were quite influential in my social circle at the time they were new. I have read both and I liked them too. I don’t think that they are revolutionary or the best pice of writing but they had arguably an impact.
Get rid of the first past the post voting and the other voting shenanigans like gerrymandering. That ought to fix a lot not all but there is no solution for everything at once.
It is a nice outfit, though it may be a bit too short for a kids birthday. The more you move towards the later teens it gets more appropriate quickly.
