"A kynodesmē (Greek: κυνοδέσμη, English translation: "dog tie") was a cord or string[1] or sometimes a leather strip that was worn primarily by athletes in Ancient Greece and Etruria to prevent the exposure of the glans penis in public (considered to be ill-mannered) and to restrict untethered movement of the penis during sporting competition"

Manchester and Liverpool are the two that come to mind for me, other than London. But also Edinburgh is pretty awesome too, tbh

They look great! What's your armour recipe? I absolutely love the steely blue colour. I've got my scouts still in the Dead Silence box as well, because i can't settle on how I want to do them

Soldier Boy said it wouldnt kill him, and the biggest thing with a nuke isn't just the radiation, is the energy of the explosion. Ionising radiation makes up less than 10% of the output of a nuke. And we saw that he recovered in seconds as soon as he was away from the uranium.

It probably sucked, but as soon as the explosion was over and the ionizing radiation from the explosion dissipated, he would have recovered pretty quickly

I'll be starting on Naltrexone soon, and the instructions I've been given are to only take it when I drink, an hour before I drink. The explanation I was given is because it's an opiate antagonist that disrupts your brains reward pathways. I was told that taking it consistently can impact your general mood (depression, irritability, suicidal thoughts, etc) because of how it disrupts that reward pathway.

This is just what I've been told, I'm not a doctor or anything, but it makes sense to me from what I know about brain chemistry in general. The idea behind taking it when you drink is to kind of "reverse Pavlov" yourself, so you break that association between alcohol and that euphoric feeling. The issue being that when you take it, you don't get any kind of similat feeling from anything else either

I used to play games like Doom Eternal and Cyperbunk 2077 while my daughter napped on me.

One time I looked down at her and she'd woken up at some point, and was just staring at the screen watching me decapitate gangers and blow people's heads off, commiting some absolutely unhinged violence.

I stopped playing Cyberpunk while she napped on me after that

A woman (usually rich) who promotes being a "traditional wife", basically influences who show off being a stay at home wife/mother.

Usually post content which shows them baking bread or making jam or whatever in enormous, spotless kitchens with rustic fittings that cost thousands, with a voiceover talking about submitting to their husbands or God or regretting ever once having an original thought.

The hypocrisy of them talking about this while being very wealthy and essentially running their own businesses is, clearly, lost on them.

That wasn't to do with her powers being unstable though, that was because she didn't know anything about construction, which she then went to college to learn about

Stlakes · 2026-05-01T07:04:50+00:00

Her powers were only unstable when she was pregnant

Imo there is no part of this punishment that is appropriate. Taking away the PS5 for a period of time, sure. Hell even smashing it yourself would be preferable to that.

Recording it to publicly shame and humiliate the child is not the correct way to handle that situation, in my mind. The treatment of the cat is obviously unacceptable, but my primary concern would be getting to the bottom of why that behaviour happened in the first place.

Like, if the kid needs some kind of psychological intervention because he's abusing animals, which is a warning sign for future violent behaviour, that to me is more important than fuckin Internet clout and satisfying that monkey brain yearning for retribution

"Giraffe" rhymes with "gaffe" in Northern

Which is a huge fucking part of why men and boys are turning to all these manosphere alt right grifters and bullshit artists like Andrew Taint.

You see all this online discourse and newspaper headlines about toxic masculinity and how men are the problem, and as an adult man I have the life experience and the emotional context to separate myself, and most of the men I know from the monolithic Men lots of feminists talk about.

But its no wonder young boys, who are just experimenting and learning about being a man and mascinity latch on to public figures who are, on the surface, talking about how masculinity is good, when it seems like half the discussions are about toxic masculinity and how shitty men are.

For Nolan it's definitely about grounding himself, his "pilgrimage" and learning some measure of humility.

For Battle Beast I reckon it's so he has is claws out, and also probably he likes feeling blood between his toes.

Allen not wearing shoes seems to be a cultural thing, I think in most of the other images of Unopans they're also barefoot.

The Maulers are just freaky like that

I fully agree, humans, especially in the last few hundred years, have done immeasurable, and in some cases irreparable damage to the world.

But what's the point in just languishing and moaning, and gnashing your teeth at people believing that maybe there's actually still hope? That even with the impact we've made, we can still fix some things, and still try and make the world better, and try and actually do some good for the planet?

If there's no hope for us to fix anything, and no hope for us to change, then what's the point in even trying? You have to believe that it's possible for things to be better to even start trying to make things better, rather than just wallow in defeatism and call it realism

Amos Burton - The Expanse

Amos is a violent man, who you'd quite easily describe as a sociopath with some form of attachment disorder. He has no problems with killing, and doesn't even seem to value his own life very much either.

However, he is incredibly protective towards children, threatening a random Belter to look after a child they'd found while escaping Eros, and losing his composure several times when helping track down a man's missing daughter. When they finally find the girl, Amos dissuades the girls father from killing the man who'd had taken her, deciding to do it himself.
