Well well. Wasn’t that a fun read. Good effing grief.

It’s unclear to me how often they need to hook up this elaborate setup. Is it a one-time thing that once set up it’s done? Can their grandmother walk out of range of the iPad and allow it to disconnect? What is the quality difference between typical hearing aids and this airpod capability?

Thanks for sharing the article. There’s a lot of people hurting in so many ways. This boy has it real real hard. It’s so good to see a win and to hear how this little boy is finally experiencing some much needed relief. He has so much hardship ahead of him, but this is a good day. 💜💜💜

Identity is a construct. Identify however you wish to be identified. You will be judged by and perceived as the identity people inevitably assign to you, regardless of how you self identify. Hopefully it matches. Maybe it won’t.

Mostly, just try to be okay with yourself. Be a decent human and people will generally be okay with you.

Ah yes. This.

It does something for the victim and I think it could affect the department. But I understand what you’re saying.

I never hear of officers being sued though. I wonder if they are protected somehow.

Here’s a website countdown: https://www.webcountdown.net/?c=1863604800

I think I need to put a widget on my phone. 😏

I’m a “discord admin” too! Nuts!

Your first step might be finding someone who can mentor you and help you and teach you a bit. Someone with patience and who is caring.

To be honest though, it sounds like some good therapeutic council would do you very well and bring quality of life.

Anti-semitism is a form of racism and prejudice.

Being anti-genocide, anti-Israeli government, or even anti-Israel is a very different thing.

If we’re going to redefine s***, then being anti-Palestinian is literally being an anti-semite when you consider whose semites actually are.

It seems the IDF are some of the worst anti-semitic offenders on Earth.

Good grief.

Okay, this one made me smile. 😁

I mean, we might as well just go all in. It seems like most everyone is running headlong into apocalypse anyway.

I just don’t have the capacity for this. Ugh.

I mean, time-travel stories typically involve traveling by way of some mechanism be it a spell, wormhole, tear in spacetime and etc. The end goal is usually traveling from one point to another with a purpose. Characters can travel back and forth. Everyone usually remembers each encounter.

Time-loops, like in Groundhog’s Day or Edge of Tomorrow, usually cause people to get “stuck.” Some plot device is then introduced to eventually “unstick” them. Only the people stuck in the loop are usually aware that anything is happening.

AP: What to know about Tulsi Gabbard, Trump’s pick to be director of national intelligence https://apnews.com/article/trump-gabbard-director-national-intelligence-466dfdfe2f949ea20bc2f4ef13e21438

Just read this article because I honestly don’t know who Gabbard is. Interestingly, I agree with a lot of her views of the Democratic party. Backing Bernie in 2016 says something good. But… to leave the party and then eventually end up becoming a Republican, oath-bound Trumpite? I’m genuinely confused as to who she really is and what she stands for.

But… I don’t really have much to say beyond that. Not a single person Trump is surrounding himself with is someone that brings me hope. This cluster just gets worse by the day. And unfortunately, it seems Gabbard will just add to it.

Please please successfully sue the hell out of them.

Good bless America and the American war fighter.

Update: added “/s” since it apparently wasn’t clear

Are they dreaming of each other or dreaming of being each other? 🤔

It really is confusing to me considering the amount of money they put into things like Lord of the Rings and Wheel of Time. They’re obviously investing in the platform. But at the same time, it’s designed in a way that makes it wildly painful to use.

Lovely. Absolutely 🤬ing lovely.
