I agree, I actually thought no particular reason was given.

I do like the new guy though, he did great in the finale of season 2.

Well this fucking sucks, I liked Sticker Mule. My wife illustrates and gets stickers printed by them, and they’ll send goodies in the box with it (like their hot sauce, which is also pretty good).

I’m all for a business taking a stance of “against violence”, but I didn’t know they were so pro-Trump. Personally I have mixed feelings because I don’t want to open this Pandora’s Box of more and more violence, particularly in public places. But I also can’t pretend that we’d be better off with Trump gone. We’d at least have the GOP stop pretending that he had the best ideas.

There’s two local brands I like, Cirque and Topeca.

As far as big names, I get Gevalia and like it.

He is … The Naked Man

Years ago, I saw this question and someone commented on Reddit that they bring wet wipes with them when they go out.

It’s a guy named Markwayne Mullins who replaced him last year. I don’t know much about him other than he’s anti-abortion (all cases) and wanted to remove Trump’s impeachments from the official record.

It’s supposed to represent Ben Kenobi from the original star wars I think. Or more generally, a wizard-y sage robe.

Edit: it’s also just a meme, with its own understood meaning.

There’s a studio called SoundBooth Theater that does whole ass performances.

Currently listening to Dungeon Crawler Carl, by Matt Dinniman, narrated by Jeff Hayes. And it’s awesome. He does the scoffs, laughs, sings in character voices, has crazy sound effects and music, etc.

See also: Friends in Low Places. They played it at a AAA baseball game here and the whole place was chanting it lol.

That was one of the craziest reads.

I’m kind of an early access freak, but I put in about 80 hours and enjoyed it. There were definitely problems early, and I don’t plan on going back to it for at least a year, enough for them to release substantially more and it feels fresh.

I did a Dishonored run with zero kills and never being spotted, took forever but felt so satisfying.

Thank you for actually providing an explanation beyond stating the word “science”

I’m not sure transphobia or homophobia were in the actual books, but the others you mentioned were. Rowling herself obv exhibits all of those things, but I try to think of OP as a 9 year old just discovering a love of reading, who doesn’t know about the racist tones. That’s my story at least, and I’ve been happier just letting people enjoy things.

Honestly same. I saw that lemm.ee was the second largest and had an active admin, felt like I would dip my toes in and I would change if needed.

Never needed to, stuff like this gives me confidence in the platform.

Missing the spike at the end for white when I blunder back rank check mate.

Agreed, surprised they haven’t shown up in this thread yet lol.

Yeah that’s fair.

It feels bad to see this giant wall of DLCs, just feels like a cash grab. I appreciate the transparency anyway, and I don’t have to participate to enjoy it.

That’s a good point, a lot of people are still on old Avaya or Cisco systems and it was expensive to do that. A lot of cloud providers now don’t charge anything for it.

Yeah, it’s a feature dubbed “queued callback”. Saves your place, it’s a pretty common request. Customers like Delta, Intuit, Pacific Life, Citibank, Dyson, all use the platform I build (Amazon Connect) and do stuff like that.

Problem is, no one answers a call from an unknown number these days. Some phones are getting smart enough to recognize the number and show that it’s a business, though that’s more anecdotal evidence from my personal device (Pixel Fold with Google Fi carrier).
