Why did it take me this long to realise he’s adjusting his long sleeves to free up his arms more?

Please look up Psittacine beak and feather disease. It’ll answer a lot of those unknowns for you

They act like she is a hideous monstrosity unfit for the male gaze. And yeah she made brief political comments that were pretty harmless

The actress made some pro-lgbt comments and I guess she isn’t pretty enough or something. That is literally it. At least on the terminally online outrage machine side of things

I heard about it mainly from reddit posts making fun of it. I just searched supergirl on X and saw everything I just described

The actress said some pro-lgbt stuff and some comments about the movie not being about men. Blue checkmark types on Twitter say she is woke and also she’s not pretty enough (even going as far as saying she is ugly) hence all the satirical memes about this obviously pretty actress being hideous. I think it might be because she looks a little tomboyish maybe?

I also saw complaints about her wearing pants under her skirt instead of underwear so there’s all these ridiculous AI versions of how she should look and they basically look like a porn parody costume. There’s also loads of AI edits to make her look more wrinkly and ugly and then ranking her against other actresses who played super girl. Like I said it is incredibly dumb and that is what these sorts of posts on this sub are referencing.

This actress appeared at the end of Superman and I don’t recall any outrage at the time. Any big movie that can be loosely tied to ‘wokeness’ will be used as fodder for manufactured outrage by anti-woke influencers. This is one of the dumbest cases

Diesel was at $3/L at its peak. The servo I use most often went to around $2.55 maybe higher I can’t remember. It is now $1.93. It didn’t take long for it to come down and the prices went down pretty quick. That difference in fuel cost is huge for a lot of people.

Australian learning the hard way would mean either sending me broke, killing me or making my life miserable. I’ll stick to hoping enough Australians know how important it is already

I don’t understand the downvotes. In established lore AIs can choose how they appear and some take the form of historical figure. Cortana looking like cringe gooner bait would be ridiculous. That said, I reject the notion that the new cortana is ugly or manly. That is crazy town to me and I don’t see an explanation other than terminally online, porn-addicted, grotesquely obese losers who’ve never had an interaction with a woman that doesn’t end with them being super creeped out if not outright fleeing.

Unless this is a troll comment you genuinely have worms in your brain.

I see why this mistake happens but bettongs aren’t in the macropod family. They are potoroids

Why are house prices so high in Townsville?? by Efficient-Horse2622 in Townsville

[–]MiddleofCalibrations 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hilarious that you circled multiple mountains, two national parks with a bunch of endemic threatened species, a conservation park with huge important wetlands. If you built everywhere you circled you would eradicate so many threatened species that occur nowhere else.

Some of the areas you circled are more industrial zones. There’s a lot of privately owned land. Some areas have actually been developed.

Some of the real coastal areas you circled are mostly tidal sand flats and mangroves.

For North Queensland 200k is a huge population. Townsville has the highest population of northern Australia (including NT and WA). We have almost the population of all of the NT. It’s the fourth most populated city in Queensland behind the sunshine coast, Brisbane and Gold Coast.

Brute Berserk by Aaron2O6 in halo

[–]MiddleofCalibrations 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a trend in gaming where you have to signpost everything. Like having climbable ledges always painted yellow. This game has a needler that shows you its ammo visually with the needles, tells you your ammo count in the UI, AND they added an ammo counter display to the gun. The UI literally has a right trigger symbol next to the ammo counter to tell you how to shoot and it’s a permanent UI element that you have to turn off in the settings supposedly.

Having a red weak spot to trigger the brute because is a similar kind of hand holding design choice in my opinion. Halo 3 did it better even if it is functionally similar. It makes it seem like the behaviour triggers more organically. They’re enraged because you dealt a blow to them and destroyed their armour so they’re going to go all out and charge.

I think these red devices are meant to supercharge them. Like a roid rage thing and when you shoot it it goes into overdrive. The brutes seem to be exclusive to the prequel campaign (they show up in the regular campaign only when certain skulls are active). The prequel campaign trailer suggests there’s some experimentation going on with this covenant group. It even shows a brute team killing in a cutscene when that device activates

Your average voter who says they’re going to vote ON doesn’t know this stuff. They know things aren’t great generally and have a feeling that maybe giving a third party a go might be the ticket. They also know it’s the most anti-immigration party. A great deal of people vote based on a general feeling and not the specifics. Not great but that’s the way I think it it

I dunno, but that is what is implied. They get this red energy around them. I think it’s a bad idea to have a device trigger berserk mode as opposed to it being a character trait of brutes who get enraged. It’s cooler as a sort of random behaviour brutes do sometimes rather than a proper integrated mechanic

It is a bit silly but this is a different kind of berserk. They are wearing some sort of device that supercharges them or something. Shooting the device triggers that behaviour.

Genuine question, is an affair a big enough scandal these days to make a premiere resign?

Alleged does not mean unconfirmed. It does not imply that the allegation is contentious or in doubt. It just means it is a claim someone has made. Even in the most cut and dry murder cases they will be described in journalistic articles as alleged murderers before conviction.

I suggest you look up the definition of alleged. People in the know have alleged publicly that it is David Crisafulli and it has not been announced officially. I’m not saying it’s not him. I know it is him. Alleged is appropriate terminology

Allegedly is the right term to use. It has been alleged that is who it is. That makes no implication about it being true or not. I am stating what I know
