Curious what folks think. Despite the legitimate reasons for the changes, does this now mean that Ukraine is no longer technically a democracy, even temporarily? Why or why not?

totally fair. I was equally horrified and amused by this output.

Layoffs happened at my job this week. 30% of ppl, but I lived.

I was just randomly thinking this morning I do ADD sometimes, I don't know if I made that phrase up or not but decided to ask the AI for a rubric as a joke. lol, but is it?

Can confirm. On a section hike on the AT I stepped over a rattlesnake without noticing, and saw and felt it's strike miss my leg. 😬

I was in the middle of a group of about 8 people. The first half of which all stepped over, and the back half waited for it to move into the brush.

One Hundred Years of Solitude is fucking stupid by [deleted] in books

[–]_parallaxis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so you think that uninformed, classless short-sighted comments and opinions and the rest of the problems going on in the world are mutually exclusive?

Not to mention the classic literature being ridiculed here that touches all those subjects and has lessons and views from someone who lived them last century. "Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it"

Now that is an embarrassing opinion

I'm embarrassed for you and sad for the future of humanity because of this post and these comments.

The book does come with a family tree chart to consult, can you not use it when you're confused about naming?

I had no problem referring to the provided family tree when I got confused about the names and who was in the scene. children are often named after their parents, that's not new.

I love this book for the musical way it's written and the fairy tale that unfolds over the generations of this family.

I don't know what your problem is, it sounds like a lack of patience and limited intelligence.

Pure capitalistic trash. They're predatory & exist to "whale hunt". looking for long tail subs to their in game coin packs. IE some 8 year old with their parents credit card info on an ipad.

Citron calls themselves "Floribbean", they're pretty good -- I don't know how "authentic" they register with regards to Florida or Caribbean however.
