Heck, that's exactly why shooting competitions went from mixed to gendered. Women were competitive, often getting close to or even beating men and so slowly they started splitting them up into gendered categories. This is just within the last 40 to 50 years too. Skeet shooting didn't become...

New build was released. Wasn't able to play long during the test window due to real life interrupting the session, but they've started testing the seasonal system, world events, revamped the skybox and added in a preliminary pass on the farming system. I couldn't figure out how to get farming...

I'm of the mind that anyone who claims to want a meritocracy should be FOR a 100% inheritance tax, TBH. Funny that pretty much NONE of those that spout meritocracy as buzzword agree.

Yea, Newsom is an opportunist. He will do what he thinks will get him elected, nothing more, nothing less.

THIS is why representation is important: https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/powerful-speeches-from-trans-dems Two anti trans bills were defeated in Montana due to the work of two of their trans reps. Good on Montana, Zephyr and Howell!!!!

True enough. IRC servers are cheap to run, though. I've run one on dialup back in the late 90s just to test things out. Granted it only had like 5 users and was only up for a few hours, lol. Discord does voice and video, though, which do have much heavier bandwidth requirements.

It was inevitable, unfortunately(heck, it was already moving in that direction before they announced they were preparing for an IPO). We need open standards and to tear down all these walled gardens. I'm gonna go back to my grumpy corner and complain that IRC stagnated to the point that...

Lol, I didn't even realize that was the same actress. Shows how much attention I've been paying.

Funny thing is there is strong evidence that the human digestive system EVOLVED to eat cooked food. Our ancestors have been cooking meat since before they were homo sapiens. Use of fire goes back at least 400,000 years and there is STRONG evidence that it goes back much further than that...

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy /s

My waist is finally narrower than my hips!!! Started doing some mild exercising, focusing on the glutes and hip area, and yea, it's only an inch and half difference, but progress is progress. I might never end up with an hourglass figure(especially since I'm not on HRT and my diet, um, needs...

I couldn't watch it. I jumped out after less than 5 minutes of his speech. The man is repulsive and his speaking style is both boring and horrifying. I still can't see how he can enthrall people the way he does. Some good news, though, for the first time since his inauguration he's...

They've got bigger problems with the neighbors south of the border. Nothing can unite adversarial parties more than a larger threat.

Not 100% sure of that, Paladin. We are likely stuck with him for a little over two years, but his approval rating is dropping. It depends on if the republican congresmen are more scared of the MAGA cult or losing their seat because they are backing wildly unpopular policies. If the Dems...

Garibaldi would likely agree with you 200 years from now.

Makes me glad I got out of retail and into a quasi-municipal job back in 2023. Feel for those who will inevitably suffer through it, though. A lot of people who voted against Trump will be affected as well, so I can't bring myself to laugh about it.

Bernie, no, he likely wouldn't have done better, but another more left leaning person likely could have. Pandering to moderate Republican's hurt Kamala's campaign by alienating many Democrats.

Time to change that.

What does he know? He's was a talking head on the TV and while he was an officer, he spent most of his career in the reserves. He was never really in the position to make strategic decisions. Trumped picked him because he thinks Hegseth is weak and easy to control.

CO, not CO2. It's much more insidious. Your body KNOWS when it has too much CO2, but it sees carbon monoxide as oxygen, for all intents and purposes. You start suffering from the symptoms of hypoxia, which, especially in their early stages, can mimic other, less serious things. Same thing...
