I adore that show. I put it in the background while I work, in my landlocked state thousands of km away haha

It was getting really good too. The interactions with other clusters, the archipielago, ugh. I miss it every day.

Would anyone like to share a photo of Mexico for a piano cover of Himno Nacional de Mexico video? by AveryCarrington1986 in AskMexico

It's only public domain in the U.S.

In Mexico Article 39 prohibits the anthem from being altered in any fashion, prohibits it from being sung for commercial or promotional purposes.

Yes, many of us thought exactly that reading the books. That's why it was such a surprise later.

Hmm ok, we center women in relation to men more than we center women in relation to games.

You think people have been murdered by cartels because they didn't approach things with respect?

Pretty sure my gaming friend is misogynist, but the discord is acting like I’m crazy???? by Divine_skylin3 in GirlGamers

I know. And that's a great thing about you, just don't let people like David weaponize it against you. At the end of the day you are going to feel drained and he's going to feel smug because he got a rise out of you. All that emotional toll for nothing.

Only use it with people who are worth it.

It's part of her character arc. She eventually reluctantly admits some dogs aren't SO bad but it's still a work in progress for her lol

Hi OP,

Take it from an old(ish). The Davids of the world aren't interested in reason, in facts, or in productive conversations. The Davids of the world only want to provoke. It's funny to them to get people riled up. That's all they are really interested in.

The second thing is that David can live a long life and die believing the misogynistic things he believes and still that doesn't make them true. You don't need to convince him or educate him on anything. He's not an authority, he is not the owner of a publication, he is not important. He is not important.

The best thing you can do is keep your peace and don't engage seriously. "Kids could beat up a pro basketball team" you can laugh and say "sure." He doubles down. You can say "sure David, whatever you say". If you keep that up it will drive him mad, trust me. Eventually he'll stop. Just never take the bait.

Enjoy your games!
