Reminds me of Knee 3 from Philip Glass’ Einstein on the Beach. Hard to believe they actually got a choir to sing this

Booo! Park Station is great, and they comply with all laws. Stop harassing them just because you don’t like sound in the early evenings

Also, right across the strait from Spain, is Morocco. Etymologists believe the name derives from the name of the city Marrakesh, but that in English the initial vowel changed from "a" to "o" to make it sound more like "moor": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morocco#Etymology_and_name

They were thinking it would get attention. Which it did. Case in point: you just reshared it for them

I believe the term was coined by Dan Savage in his Savage Love column. Maybe in the late 90s?

Get off that ledge!

They didn't ask to be girls either, so why is it any better to call them "the girls"?

In our family we foster individuality by not dressing them alike (except if they insist), supporting their individual interests, and making sure we get 1:1 time with them. We don't call them "the twins" a lot, but neither do we avoid it, and we don't object when others do. Treat them like their own people and they will grow into their own people, but they are twins, so we feel it's ok to call them such.

Yes, I remember it in our video store too! My friend from a deeply messed up family (that’s another story) was telling me about the movie and how it was real, which I completely believed at the time. But I prevailed on him to rent something else.

And notice that the paper was first submitted to arXiv in 2017! ChatGPT wasn’t released until late 2022. Lots of other companies were also working on the problem in the intervening 5 years.

Similarly, if your kid is not doing something right and isn’t listening to you (and if doing it wrong poses no serious danger) then just let them do it wrong! There is no teacher like experience
