I assume that OP isn’t sleeping with the wrist wearing the watch underneath the pillow their wife has her head on.

Pulling your arm from under a pillow someone is using seems very likely to disturb them and wake them. You’re not doing that, OP, right?

I can’t imagine that you can get out of bed without waking your wife if your smartwatch vibrating wakes her up.

It is a little complicated:

Before proceeding further, the Court notes the limited scope of this case, this opinion, and the relief granted. This case does not involve creating a count of the representatives’ locations or second-guessing the House’s own count and listing of its members. Instead, the Court takes as true the House’s recitation of its proceedings and its designation of certain members as participating by proxy. Further, the Court makes no judgment on the wisdom of the House’s proxy rule, only its constitutionality as it pertains to counting absent members as part of the quorum. Nor does the Court address whether some members may permissibly vote by proxy if the constitutionally required quorum is otherwise physically present at the time of the vote. Finally, although the Court finds that the passage of the Consolidated Appropriations Act violated the Constitution, Texas does not seek an injunction of—and the Court does not enjoin—the entire Act. Rather, the Court enjoins only the application of the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act against Texas. The relief granted here is limited to abating the injury that Texas has proven will occur.

in other types of media its done to indicate CSAM but in anime it’s not

if a tv series shows it it is trying to potray child sexual abuse

anime isn’t doing that they are just normalising it.

I still don’t understand. You keep saying “it”. What is “it”?

I don’t understand what you’re trying to communicate here.

I’m doing my part.

a program to ‘cleanse’ ethnic groups of their ‘extremist’ thoughts through re-education and forced labour

“Arbeit macht frei”

I see your point.

I think I would still like it. I don’t have a problem with it not being implemented because other people wouldn’t like it.

If you know who is being toxic, you can block them.

Another interesting concept that came from the discussion over that was “constructive downvote” - requirement of commenting why one downvotes a post.

I think I like that idea.

All of my encounters with individuals who feel liberal arts are useless and STEM is the way seem to, at their core, feel that way because of earning potential

You were saying a group of people believe that value as a person is determined by their contributions to STEM fields and finance.

Now you’re saying that this group of people believe that value as a person is determined by earnings potential. Those are not the same things.

Security exists between keyboard and chair

In theory

a person’s intrinsic value and overall value to society is not determined by their contributions to STEM fields and finance

I don’t think anyone who views contributions in STEM fields as the most valuable to society has any respect for finance.
