I'm back on my bullshit.

  • thank you! get ready then. there's more of where that came from 👉😉👉

  • nice! I like how you are using shading in this one to represent depth

  • Thanks! I agree with your critique. The intention was to place more effort on detailing the water, but I had run out of time. I ordered a paint set that should be here tomorrow, so I might work on it this weekend and will repost 👍

  • yes, actually!

  • Yeah, that's my point. What does it matter that they got better because they think they should get better? To me, what matters is that they got better, regardless of the reason. Bonus: they got high on ecstasy while under medical supervision.

    Option A: Take a pill that doesn't feel like ecstasy and no one gets better.

    Option B: Don't tell patients that ecstasy makes them feel better. Give them ecstacy. 20% of patients get better.

    Option C: Tell patients that ecstasy can make them feel better. Give them ecstacy. 40% of patients get better.

    Personally, option C seems like the most effective and thus preferred option. I don't see any downside whatsoever.

  • do me with play, nt spacenoodle'

  • around 90% of the participants in Lykos’s trials guessed correctly whether they had received the drug or a placebo

    I understand the logic with using a placebo comparison, but who cares if people got better solely because they know they took ecstasy?

  • UK worked, thanks!

  • What country does my outside VPN server need to be in to watch that video?

  • Dude, Russia is straight up a country ran by bullies. O'Doyle rules!

  • From what I gather, she was born a woman and has always identified as a woman. There is no public concrete evidence that argues otherwise. She is therefore not trans. Still, the International Boxing Committee disqualified her and another boxer for failing a gender eligibility test, though they didn't specify on what grounds. Then, another Olympian got their ass handed to them, so they said it was unfair that Khelif was able to participate. what???

    Ironically, if there is absolutely no evidence that Khelif is trans, then by their own standards, the ones hurting gender-based fairness in sports are the transphobes.

  • the transphobes first tried to use it as an excuse to attack them, and then when it turned out they weren't even trans, they doubled down even more.

    I'm not familiar with this case. Can you elaborate on what happened and your take on it pls?

  • I wouldn't mind doing it, but I would have to know the partner really well and feel confident that it would be a stable relationship. I remember having a hard time as a kid when I lost my aunt because her and my uncle had a nasty divorce where she went no contact.

    Pros of dating a parent:

    • You can see how they treat those that are vulnerable and dependent on them
    • They're typically more stable, conscientious, and responsible
    • Good parents know that they have to model healthy behavior, so they practice those
    • You already know what you are getting with the kids, so it's not a surprise
    • The kids inadvertently tell on the parent if the parent is misrepresenting themselves up front
    • Can do family activities that would normally be considered odd for only adults to partake
    • The many benefits of being a parent
    • If there's shared custody, you regularly get time off from being a parent

  • It introduces more factors to consider. One, the kids will be involved in the relationship, so that's more people that have to get along well. Two, they take up time, energy, and resources that could otherwise go to the relationship. Three, the parents are more anchored to their current life, so things like going on vacation or moving become much more complex and expensive. Four, the person will almost certainly have to maintain a relationship with their ex/other parent of the children. Five, if you yourself want to have kids, they may not be willing to do so anymore.

    I acknowledge that having kids has its benefits too though. It's not all bad.

  • Super interesting! Thanks for sharing 🙂

  • Neat! I looked into it a little and found that there is a tiger-striped bikini comic of Urusei Yatsura. It seems like the person that introduced the idea to the Secret of Mana development team may have gotten the idea from Urusei Ystsura, but I can't say for sure.

  • What I find interesting about this is that someone can still afford it because the market sets the price. We know that housing costs have increased immensely due to limited supply and because housing is a need, but someone can still afford it. Otherwise, they'd lower the price to whatever someone can pay. So if a lawyer cannot afford the rent, who can??
