He might be legally pseudo protected by twitch having minimum age requirements.

Unless it was a few very specific US states, this isn’t really relevant. The minimum age to sign up for an account on Twitch is 13.

I have no interest in seeing AI art either, but complaining about something you can easily and quickly fix by just blocking the community is pretty dumb.

You have to go more Im13andthisisdeep with it:

‘When a set has no elements we call it empty. It’s always unique, but contains nothing inside it. What is something else in your life that is also so simple and empty, yet utterly unique?’

Then you wait for a hundred replies, 50 listing various containers that are special to them and the other 50 telling you it’s their soul that’s empty.

I agree, it shouldn’t feel like that. As someone who is bi and queer though, on top of all the normal trials and tribulations of dating there’s also a long list of people who don’t think I have the right to exist. I’d rather find out they’re a hate filled asshole as soon as possible so I can move on with my life. At this stage I won’t meet someone face to face unless we’ve chatted extensively online already. Even though I’m dooming hard I do still hope you find someone 😊

It’s really exhausting to the point that first dates feel like I’m interviewing them.

If it’s a first date, you are interviewing them. I’m sorry it feels exhausting for you though.

Okay wow. This was really uncalled for. What did I ever do to you?

Let me know how your back feels in the morning

The way it was always explained to me was anything containing even a small amount of caffeine was problematic. I appreciate you correcting me on this.

They’re serious about following the rules because their entire social and community structure stresses conformity. If you break the norms of the faith there are serious repercussions and you can lose your entire family, community, and support structure. When they’re alone with others who aren’t of the faith they are definitely far more lax. I’ve drank beer and even had chocolate with Mormons before lol.

I have family in Utah and there’s a pretty common joke in this vein.

Why do you always invite two Mormons to a party?

Because if you only invite one they will drink all your beer.

I’ve tried Google’s suggestion of water/vinegar and a bit of dish soap in a bottle, but they don’t seem to go for it at all.

Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but I always thought this method was only geared for fruit flies, not houseflys.

Flypaper strips can be effective depending on the severity and location of the issue and are fairly cheap. It won’t be 100% effective, but it might help. Just be very careful about where you place it if you have any pets or children.

I haven’t had a chance to listen to the new album, but it’s a bit sad to hear it went in a poppier direction.

Honestly though, Worlds is a masterpiece that was created as pushback against the EDM trends of the time when it was released. It’s not necessarily unfair comparison, but it is a recipe for disappointment if that’s what you’re going to use as your baseline for all new music.

I don’t know about the satire, but the image is referencing a scene Jack Black is in from the movie Anchorman where he punts the main characters dog off a bridge. The scene in question

You seem to be conflating two unrelated points. When people say “tourists need to go home” or “we need less tourists,” they aren’t referring to some philosophical argument for the existence of tourism as a gauge of economic health for the middle class.

These phrases are almost exclusively speaking in regards to tourism’s negative effects on the local environment and population. Heavy tourism has a tendency to cannibalize an areas resources and then alienate or push out the native population.

That’s how it shows up for me at least. Reduced aspect ratio and the top/bottoms of images are cropped to a standard size. I have been needing to wait a second for the image to fully load it’s full format rather than needing to interact with a post though - it just happens automatically when it’s in view on the screen.

I just want to say - I sincerely appreciate you! You’re a nice person, internet stranger, and I hope you are having a good day.

Jokes on you. I’m the Grey Fox and you’ll never catch me!

There are plenty of situations where a post can be good and on topic for the community it’s posted to but unpopular to a larger, widespread audience. There are also absolutely people who will instantly downvote these posts instead of just blocking the community that isn’t relevant to or doesn’t interest them. If a post is bad it will still get the downvotes, but it would help it to find the correct audience for it if there’s a slight delay because two or three downvotes can be a death knell for a new post.

I get it. I do standard deadlifts first thing on my back day because I don’t like fatiguing my posterior chain on leg day, but it definitely causes grip problems by the end of my workout. Maybe it’s just me, but you’ll probably be lifting lower weights typically with an RDL which may be where the comments are coming from.
