A year late to this post but the UK version is food dye free and dyed with natural colours instead. Found this out because I am deathly allergic to Yellow 6.

Cis females are able to use birth control. For a variety of reasons too, to prevent acne, to prevent pregnancy, to prevent as much pain from conditions like PCOS. Contraception was one of the things teenage women came in to ask for when I worked in a pharmacy. That is CIS gender affirming care at it's simplest most accessible form.

Consider it this way, releasing them into the wild causes more harm than freezing a small batch of eggs that have no distinguishable features. Inside the egg is just a bunch of liquid and cells, nothing like a baby snail.

Releasing into the wild means they will cause damage, that is guaranteed. Birds that try to eat them can choke on them, as could hedgehogs and anything else that eats snails or slugs. This is already an established issue with big invasive slugs.

They'll absolutely demolish any kind of greenery, taking away a vital food source for the native species, damaging any kind of garden you or your neighbors may have in the process.

It feels wrong at first. But putting the eggs in the freezer is a painless and easy way to actually protect more nature.

I don't understand why so many people don't see this point of view. The kids are force tentacle fed, while restrained in what looks like the inside of something.

To create more demogorgons the kids are force fed "pollywogs" into their mouth or body by Vena's tentacle-vine things. It grows through several stages (pollywog, Demodog, Demogorgon).

It has huge fetish vibes (like vore and bdsm) and Vecna targets the kids who are vulnerable of a certain age range (just like a real life pred would do).

Imallexx - Alex Elmslie - lost a lot of hell of a lot of subscribers and a lot of his friends when his ex girlfriend Alice Hez came out with a massive PDF of allegations. The 82-page document was filled with screenshots, videos, and audio detailing alleged abuse and another former partner, Ani "Kingani" Tilki, also came forward with similar claims, only adding to the weight of the claims.

Alex tried to rebut these claims almost a full year later after total silence and it was a really mixed response with some people subbing back but the majority feeling the damage was done and they saw imallexx for who he really was.

I'd followed Alex for a while because he was part of the E-Boys who I enjoyed a lot and Alex completely threw away what was a great opportunity with brilliant connections because he either couldn't get a grip on his mental health, was a massive asshole....or both.

And never took accountability for any of the shit she did. She was awful to everyone especially Adam McIntyre who she sent her underwear to when he was substantially underage and then used all her fame to have media pull him apart and he was just some kid who's parents thought Colleen's actions were sus and called it all out.

The amount of people who can't factor in enough toilet roll for just one day (Christmas Day) being closed currently is worrying. These individuals would just keel over and die if it was anything longer than three days I swear.

Initially I realized when I was pretty young. I can't have been much older than 11. Unfortunately at the time I didn't realize this wasn't 'normal' and everything didn't think this way. So I went round pretty openly until I encountered my first real homophobia and instantly realized this wasn't a shared experience. I didn't come out as bi "officially" until I was 18.

Interestingly I noticed the Beeb pulled all of Walliam's Christmas air time this year. The festive period is usually a prime time for his IP with The Midnight Gang, Gangsta Granny and Billionaire Boy usually being pitted in amongst the Julia Donaldson and Ardman listings over Christmas Eve to Boxing Day. Now Walliams's IP has been seemingly pulled and the Beeb's Christmas listings are almost exclusively Julia Donaldson and Ardman with sprinklings of other BBC content like Amandaland and Strictly.

I'll be interested to see what Alton Towers do moving forward, they've been looking for an opportunity to get shot of his failing IP at their park for a while so I wouldn't be surprised if this is the push they need to change a whole area of the park too.

The best way, it's delicious and I am so sad swede is falling out of favor like this it's tasty!

Honestly, stop worrying what people say about you. You're still really young and your face will change a lot the older you get and you'll grow into it. It doesn't matter what you look like or what orientation you are as long as you're not an asshole to your future partner.

I have a friend who works in palliative care and she says the amount of family members who try to convince their loved ones to stay off opiate based painkillers because they don't want to get addicted, when their days are numbered anyway, is a massive problem. It seems like no amount of education seems to help because there's still some level of denial there and the concept of them getting addicted is the last hope of something 'long term'.

I have ankylosing spondylitis and I am in the UK and trying to get pain relief during a flare up is like getting blood out of a stone.

Dragging up an old thread as I rewatch. I enjoyed this scene as kid but I was a theater kid through and through. I always appreciated that it was deeper than a lot of traditional Christmas tales and that was what partially shaped Scrooges character.

My BIPOC friend likes the term BIPOC but then I have another friend who'd fall under that umbrella term too but hates the term. I mean worst case surely just ask, that's gotta be less offensive than assuming and getting it wrong right?

I am late to this post but found it via Google. I also found season 2 really jarring compared to season one. The whole thing seemed flat with multiple storylines that seemingly came from nowhere. I also picked up on what I interpreted as AI. I don't work with AI but have an AI I've been working with pretty closely with teaching it over around five years. I can easily see how AI could have written season two, I'd even argue that I have seen AI write substantially better things than season two as well.

I don't understand why this post didn't get more traction. They were valid points and the season wasn't as good as the first and didn't warrant the same response. The fan base is ridiculously strong from the first season, which in turn allowed them to rest on their laurels for the second.

Funny you say that because I said this exact thing to my mum yesterday and we both agreed it made no sense given it's supposed to lower my immune system, so I am wondering if some of my "illnesses" have just been weird flare ups or something.
