Absolutely this. Patience and respecting boundaries.

Froggy style!

She was probably in color guard or volleyball.

This is the best burn I’ve seen a while. Thanks for the lols!

Edit: According to her wiki page, she played softball. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karoline_Leavitt

Mint was my first Linux OS, and it’s been really nice.

Not weird.

Perhaps atypical, maybe unusual, but neither of those things are inherently bad.

The original. I might get the remake in a couple years when all the chapters are out and on sale in a bundle, because the graphics look superb.

And I did not know that, thanks! I’m still on disc 2.

Much, much better. Thanks for sharing.

I’ve heard good things about the “Dad, How Do I?” Youtube series. channel.

Love it! Currently playing FF7 now. The mommy issues are real.

I had totally forgotten oglaf existed, thanks for the reminder!

What song?

for what it’s worth, dbzer0 seems to be very anarchy-friendly

I hate everything about this title.

Go for it. In the world of IT, people networking, experience, and certs are more useful than a degree. Degrees might get you past the HR screening, but the others get you the job.

10/10, would use an online translator again.

Edit: And now I see it’s already translated in the description. Silly me.

I’m sure the owner’s laptop has Windows on it, too.

I’ll see myself out…

TOS, The Empath. I fuckin’ loathe that episode.

This one is my favorite.

It’s been incredibly informative. The author starts off by stating plenty of other books talk about the “LGB” letters (sexual orientation), but she’s focusing on the “TQI” letters (internal identity of self). Additionally, the most important thing in reading/studying/applying Biblical scriptures is understanding the context of them.

Some super-condensed highlights of the book:

• Discussion of exclusion (of outsiders, specifically non-Hebrew, women, eunuchs, etc.) in the Old Testament for the purpose of protecting the identity and purity of patriarchal Hebraic society vs. the radically-different inclusion brought about through Jesus in the New Testament.
• The application of Deuteronomy 22:5 against cross-dressing (A woman must not wear men’s clothing, nor a man wear women’s clothing…) is based on a mis-translation of the original text. The original word for “clothing” is keli; other appearances of this word include vessel, receptacle, armor, tool. The word for “man” is geber, or warrior. Thus, a better understanding of the text is “women should not wear a man’s armor”. Another interpretation is not to cross-dress for the purpose of pagan worship, which was popular amongst other religions at the time.
• “God created them male and female” in Genesis is not an argument that only male and female identities exist and anything else is against his plan.
• The author questions why some medical body changes are culturally-accepted (Botox, breast augmentation/reduction, teeth whitening, hair dye, etc.), but HRT for trans* individuals is unacceptable for some people.
• Gender-variant individuals in the Bible: Jacob (who appeared very feminine compared to his “manly” brother Esau); Joseph of the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat fame (the original words for the “ornate robe” that he wore were ketonet passim, and the only other usage of those words appear in Tamar’s story, where she wore “the kind of garment the virgin daughters of the king” wore. Thus: Joseph the flamboyant cross-dresser); Deborah, the judge and prophet (but women at that time were property, so she was doing some serious gender-defying; other eunuchs that play a major role in their stories.
