I don’t think it would be correct to use the A in apple for any of the As in Kamala. It’s more of the A with an open mouth than constrained to the front. The A in calm is much closer imo
I should really be using the IPA to make my point here but I don’t know all the letters
Texas would be brisket, barbecue sauce, and possibly pickle slices and/or chopped onions in between two slices of white bread. Butter the white bread beforehand for extra points.
I guess that’s too similar to the Kansas one on this chart though
Spoken like one who has not experienced the travesty of over-garlicked food 🥲
I mean, the bench is painted. Paint isn’t usually known for being an electrical conductor. While conductive blends exist, I don’t think they’d be very viable nor cost effective for an outdoor application such as this. That’s just speculation though. There are also the safety and liability issues with something like this, for insurance if the electricity were turned on by accident during hours it should be safe.
If a city government can pay $20k extra per unit to ensure it causes needless suffering to homeless ppl (and get away with it), I wouldn’t hold my breath on them not spending it. That said, we should probably reserve our ire for actual anti-homeless atrocities committed by PDs and city councils. Art projects making an apt social commentary are thought provoking but should be recognized as such.
Of course, as you mentioned it’s entirely possible something like this exists already. I haven’t seen any proof of that, but in such a case it would probably be easier to just not paint the bench and leave it at that.
Ah well talking shit about work is different than actually changing your primary focus away from it. It’s just a form of small talk and they generally change tune when you actually start doing stuff about it in your life. Not coming in on a day when the manager mass-texted us that the building was out of power? I didn’t know, but apparently everyone else still came in because “it might have come on later” and I guess I was just supposed to show up out of some distorted form of solidarity?? I get that others needed the hours on their check anyways but I didn’t see the point personally.
They’ll find shit to talk about. If you decide the place is too toxic and work to cut your hours, that culture of complaining often shifts to include you, especially when you’re not there.
Maybe I’m too bitter from my previous job but good gravy am I glad to have quit.
And who’s responsible for keeping the different teams properly staffed and funded?
Wait you gals stopped being annoying?
Garden hose Pepsi just hits different
Ah I didn’t catch that the first time around. Yeah that’s a bad idea. Most of the other stuff seems like it should be fine though
How so? I don’t see anything here that’s particularly challenging to design around, no plants incorporated directly into buildings for instance.
Easier said than done for most
BLOOD IS FUEL.
HELL IS FULL.```Indiana Jones is my favorite docuseries 😍
Fools! My legend dates back to the twelfth century.
Opposite end of the aisle here, but I hope my comment is welcome. I think a lot of this stems from the bioessentially prescriptivist attitudes a lot of people have. It’s for similar reasons that trans women are often framed as predators in women’s spaces that trans men are framed as “smol beans” to protect, or misguided by the Trans Agenda™. It’s an assigning of hyperagengy to AMABs and hypoagency to AFABs, and it’s really gross.
The most “fun” part I’m guessing is when you call it out as a reactionary attitude and cue the shock and horror to the thought, that maybe unsolicited infantilization doesn’t paint transmascs in the positive light they think it does.
This is entirely unsubstantiated but I’ve heard it’s been used to groom minors on Xitter
That’s nice I wonder what they humanely do with the male chicks
Well in that case you starve a slow death of malnutrition as your body is unable to properly process any of the food you eat, unless it’s also rotated 180 degrees along the 4th axis
What a phenomenal country to allow this sort of thing to occur at all
When the typo is a matter of capitalization, and the skepticism over whether or not that’s a reasonable expectation gets construed into being full-blown transphobia, I can’t help but feel like things have gotten a bit out of hand.
Just reading through the threads (you can find them on the Blahaj Lemmy Meta sub) has been quite disheartening and I feel like a lot of language of inclusion is being weaponized and limit tested in a very harmful way.
I had my issues with LOC and LibertyHub but we also came to a mutual understanding in DMs and, while we still disagreed, I found myself in a position where I actually understood the point of the sub (regardless of whether or not I thought it was a good addition to the instance) and was able to make my peace with it.
I really wish him stepping down were under less egregious circumstances but honestly, were I in a similar situation I’d probably find myself doing the same thing. Even having been a complete fly on the wall third party, I feel like the debacle has been a cognitohazard. I’m racking my head on a few concepts I thought I had worked out pretty well. I’m not sure if it’s some level of reactionary gut sentiment welling up from within or just over how much the whole situation feels like a form of Crybullying. Maybe it’s both.
