It’s “not a top priority”.

It’s the concept that the mouth position to make an R is kind of the midway point between the S and the P, so if you’re speaking quickly, the S and P just blend together. To really enunciate the R, you kind of have to actively pause for a moment between the S and P, which is a bit awkward for some people. I stumbled into a series of videos about language quirks recently that happened to cover this; kind of coincidental to see it here right afterwards.

On the other hand, the platform isn’t large enough to support the body with B so there’s danger of it falling off or hurting people or whathaveyou. With A, you risk the head and neck falling down and hurting someone but the body, at least, is in a stable position.

They’re just determined to not win the majority, aren’t they.

They do accept donations currently; there’s a ko-fi link on the sidebar. It’s not that we need the disclosure, it’s more that if they’re funding it themselves, I’d rather know that so I can donate more. Heh

If they keep opposing it, they should amend it to a recurring tax, and if they still keep opposing it, they should make it 10% and just keep upping the ante until the billionaires learn to shut the fuck up and sit down. Non-tech giants out-number the tech giants by FAR more than enough to pass the legislation.

There’s literally no way any of us could possibly know the answer to that question.

A better analogy would be insects. Not all yellow-and-black flying insects are dangerous, but if you see one flying around your head, it’s safer to assume it’s a yellowjacket than to assume it’s a honeybee.

Yes.

Nowhere near as high-stakes as some of the others here, but…

When I was 16 or so, I was hanging out with a few friends and one of them pulled out a joint and a bottle of some kind of liquor, and started passing it around. I got a really bad feeling about it and bailed on it.

Found out the next day that after I’d left, they’d gotten pretty drunk and/or high, and had decided it would be a good idea to take one of their mother’s minivan for a drive around their property. They scraped the side of it on something, took off a huge bit of paint, and then decided the best course of action would be to use some spray paint they found in the garage to try and cover it up.

They were all grounded for quite a long time, a fate I managed to avoid by leaving when I did.

This is the way. IMO no individual should be allowed to have more wealth than the poorest country. Want to earn more? Uplift the impoverished, then you can.

Put them in the post content / comment on the OP. Only one will show up on the thumbnail, but if someone clicks into the post, they’ll all be there.

If you enjoy imagining what life would be like as an animal person with intelligence… boy, have I got the fandom for you!

Furries were around before the internet. Art was distributed in small pamphlets or zines. It originated in the 1970s and the term dates back to the early 1980s.

I guess what I’m saying is, people could look at non-self-drawn cartoon animal porn long before the internet. Just FYI. :)

Furries don’t believe they’re animals. You’re possibly confusing furries with therians. There’s some overlap, but they’re ultimately different groups and the latter are the ones that believe they’re the animal in question. If you’re going to object to a thing, the least you could do is get your facts straight beforehand.

I really, truly hope that this backfires on them and they’re all subject to death by firing squad. Truly.

Kind of surprised by the lack in South America. I know there’s an at least semi-active furry presence down there.

Yeah, I think I’m good. Thanks, though. :)

After reading this and the replies, I am legitimately not sure if this is a joke or not. I’m not going to go try to find out, but if this is a joke, this is an absolute master class. Bravo.
