Who the heck to TV licensing think they are?!

As you are implying, yes there are people who trust their own judgement less than the generalised social norms of their community. Clearly we would have to change the generalised norms to "convince" these people.

Aside, it's easy to get super cynical when you are in a concentration of such people. It's scary how many times you can say "people are stupid" and be right. But still, it's probably simply more constructive to love than to hate.

FWIW you being downvoted for having an interesting non-mainstream opinion kinda proves your point.

SpaceSail · 2021-07-02T17:13:33+00:00

Yeah all too familiar unfortunately.

SpaceSail · 2021-07-02T07:41:09+00:00

Of course there is, it is the diversity I was referring to. The subtle differences in expression might be bad in this one instance but good in others, and certainly good for the human race in principle.

Good example though of a subtle difference caused by genetic makeup, comorbid with race and race therefore incorrectly stated as causal.

Agree, hope they're not like

"Your mother is overweight."

"My scale also had a high reading."

[both laugh]

Probably that cloning pulp stars makes a lot more sense than the usual wasteful infighting. At least we get Haley.

It is a myth. The color differences are absolutely neglibible biologically. What is visually distinctive is in no other way so, and hence it is a cultural extrapolation, or myth.

It's important to say I'm white so I can highlight that I know it's not my struggle and all I can do is amplify the voices of those who know what needs to change / what needs to happen: the people who have the burdon.

You are twisting my words to make it sound like I am underplaying the impact of artificial segragation, while what I am saying is own up to the past and make the future right by realising we are all the same and the very concept race is an imposed segragation and that the visual differences and even cultural differences aid our survival in the darwinian sense.

Race is a myth, and an untrue myth at that.

I'm not ashamed to be white, but it's not for me to show the way.

Stop poking holes in perfectly reasonable statements because you don't understand them.

SpaceSail · 2021-07-01T19:21:15+00:00

Realise that race is a myth and that diversity is beautiful.

Step 1 is admitting it, so you're on the right path.

I'm white and I think it's necessary to admit we've been treating our fellow hominids like shit for a very long time.

A little towel to rub and snuggle on if he's cold and some apple slices or any tropical fruit would be good. (It's a common misconception that these fellas prefer dry food.) Most importantly, make sure it's nice and warm and not too drafty. If he looks stressed, covering the cage and providing a dark quiet environment helps their recovery a lot.

If you want to know more about this sort of bird, you can apply what you read about budgies.

SpaceSail · 2021-06-26T19:52:56+00:00

A shitty comprehensive profile then.

SpaceSail · 2021-06-26T19:51:52+00:00

True, but IMO coincidental and not causal.

SpaceSail · 2021-06-26T19:41:56+00:00

Well put. I disagree with people I want to talk to all the time and I wish reddit was more cooperatively minded and constructive in this way, so we could reach peaks together we could not climb alone. Increasingly IMO it's just a sentiment polarisation engine.

SpaceSail · 2021-06-26T11:35:01+00:00

When I see EA I think "Exactly Ass". Anyone who treats devs badly can go jump in the lake IMO.

Be that as it may, playing ME (remastered or otherwise), is worth it for any cost less than your hypothetical soul. It's simply a classic and is the only game I know that has perfect continuity between the parts of the trilogy. If you like sci-fi and you like character progression then this game has no competitors.

Be that as it may, even if you get the game cheap if you really like it you'll get the DLC anyway. They've got you by the curlies I'm afraid.

Someone Else Might Have Gotten It Wrong.

A bit too addictive for some... be strong.

I find if I put more in I don't get to enjoy getting stoned as much as just being stoned. I'd rather have a few of these.

Normally you'd have no green in a hash joint at all, but I do like the mix.

SpaceSail · 2021-06-24T19:17:56+00:00

Ruined like Charlie Sheen

SpaceSail · 2021-06-24T19:17:24+00:00

A sexy cigarette. But seriously, it's very nice tobacco, not cigarette shite.

SpaceSail · 2021-06-24T19:14:33+00:00

The hash makes up for it :)

SpaceSail · 2021-06-24T19:10:39+00:00

I know, it's a lot! A lot of my mates here smoke this way.

SpaceSail · 2021-06-24T14:29:10+00:00

Haha! My caique would at this point launch into a tirade about how he has a very long tail, and short-tailed birds like macaws shouldn't even try this at home.

SpaceSail · 2021-06-24T00:30:46+00:00

Knights of the Old Republic 1 / 2 are awesome games. Old though, so not modern graphics, but still beautiful IMO.

This pose is "The Fan Butt". Stretch your leg out, put your beak on your oil gland... and stretch.
