The best example of good manliness in media I can think of is Bandit from Bluey.

The options are pretty slim if a cartoon dog from a children’s show is humanity’s best example of being a good man.

You know how hand sanitizer kills 99.7% of germs?

The current strain of tumblr user that survived the porn ban leans more aromantic/asexual. With less competition this new strain has thrived, and can solely focus on its main food source: fandoms for obscure media.

Reading the quote, It doesn’t seem like that huge of a win.

Trump lies so often that him accidentally telling the truth seems like random chance.

This would scar me for life and I’d never recover

By the time I’ve called the police (which would feel utterly horrible), and the police have confirmed it was just plastic, I’d be a rattled mess for a long time. (I’m already mildly mentally ill and this would not help)

Standard wedding photography is set up to make photos look “old”. And it’s so hideous and awful. Most filters used for wedding photography look atrocious.

Let major moments in time look like they were experienced at that time! I’m looking at you, black and white photograph from 2016. Artificially making something old, when at one time they were the present, gives so much incongruity to the experience.

Let something as important as a wedding day look like it’s a product of that time. Not from decades previously.

a single dose of the COVID vaccine reduced the likelihood of long COVID by 30 percent.

people who’d had three doses of the COVID vaccine were 68.7 percent less likely to develop long COVID

I’m so happy I got my fourth booster a while back.

Is it too late to avoid perpetuating the Reddit culture of adding “Porn” to titles of Fediverse communities?

As you can see in your title and description for this post, you have to stop and reiterate every time that your community is safe for work. It’s just bad branding.

Why not:

sublimeguitars

stunningguitars

pureguitars

guitar-awe

Woah, imagine niche communities of incredible photography that all use -awe, as a suffix. And then there’s an accompanying sister community with -aww as a suffix.

Could have everything cute that features a guitar and a puppy or whatever in guitaraww. And stunning guitar gear and photography in guitarawe.

I got to say, this is a genuinely beautiful photo.

Is it because it’s strangers asking? And you feel you have to pretend to be “fine?”

If so, I get that. Strangers and even acquaintances can be scary.

I love being asked how my day is by my partner though.

Genuinely a strong argument to allow work from home.

I suspect you aren’t the target audience.

Most mobile game marketing is done with ads in other free-to-play mobile games. Unless you play those types of games regularly, you’re unlikely to come across it.

I don’t touch any game I can’t pay for in full once and be done. So I know I’m not the target audience.

I met her at my university’s Brony club. I sat next to her because she had a sketchbook open. I brought out my own sketchbook and struck up a conversation.

We had a two-year courtship and have been married for 6 years now.

The English language is missing a gender neutral term for a cow/bull.

Cows are female

Bulls are male

Steers are castrated bulls

Cattle - the term for multiple cows and/or bulls and/or steers

It’s odd because every other animal with gendered language has a gender neutral term. Take chicken for example.

Hens are female

Roosters (or Cocks) are male

Capons are castrated roosters

It’s so nice to have a word like chicken to describe all these animals. But no word for that exists for cow/bull in English.

The writer of the tumblr post above either didn’t know the right word to use would be “Bull,” or the writer wanted to make sure they were understood so used the word Cow. Which… linguistically at this point may have become the gender neutral term for this animal because people need one.

Cow is such a common word, and bull is so uncommon that to be understood by everyone, cow might just be the best word.

Though anyone with knowledge of animal husbandry would be baffled because by the strict definition cows are always female.

I’m sorry you had to learn this nightmare language.

That space is for their thoughts to slide right off

Pictures of space? Absolutely!!!

Yeeeeesssss!!!

This is up there with Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear for chillest Isekai. I love me some chill isekai.

If we had proper care for the mentally ill and living on disability payments wasn’t so awful, people with severe PTSD (and likely sleep deprivation) wouldn’t be forced to have jobs.

It’s funny seeing how much of my gaming is the 30 minutes to an hour detoxing after work before going to other tasks. I rarely play a game for hours on end anymore.

Shout out to Hades and Inscryption (Kaycee’s mod) for being less than an hour to beat a run. Perfect for a detox.

Absolutely gorgeous home organization, man!

(There doesn’t happen to be a home organization part of the Fediverse, is there?)
