I love how you used pharmacist as both a location and a person in the same paragraph, and now I'm picturing them locking the pharmacist in a little cage after someone chases after to catch them when they just walk out.

It's the only way to be sure!

Game over, man! Game over!

That tracks, I suppose. Kinda makes me want to help somehow...

Trolls are just bullies, I guess.

I guess that's the root of it. I don't really understand the mentality of bullies.

Like, the kid who gets picked on and stays picking on the smaller kids when he gets bigger because his home life sucks and that's just always the way it's been for him... I maybe get it, but I don't think anyone thinks that's a good way to be, and they can stop once they start interacting with a better social group and see how it can be better. Right?

Is it really just that but online, or what have you? Idgi

 

I can understand the desire to get as many downvotes as possible on reddit. I don't sympathize, but I can at least see where people are coming from. Because Reddit gives you that total and shows it to you.

And I'm sure it's possible to use an API to really that number up on Lemmy, but "total karma" doesn't seem to be something Lemmy cares about by default, so where is the motivation coming from?

Is it just the same reason people have always been trolls? Because I've never quite understood that, either

 

Hey, look, it's a crappy common from the precon starter commander deck that came out as a supplemental product!

Same. Except it's usually more, like, verify an obscure fact or something.

 
 
 

You're right, I didn't. Don't print this.

These words... They cause me... Discomfort.

 

I think the wording on the second ability needs work, but also playtested to see if it's even viable? It's probably always either too weak or way too strong.

 

Again, not as splashy as she should be, but I didn't really think I was done when I stopped working on this set.

 

Nonlegendary Roger with no keywords but pseudo battle cry is probably too pushed.

I think the first season was pretty excellent. The mystique disappeared a little bit after that, which definitely changed how the episodes felt going forward, but it was still good

It still happens, but I don't believe it's as common as it once was (per capita intersex person, which is also a very small number)

Trans surgical procedures have some of the best outcomes of any major procedures. they are performed on consenting individuals who are always well informed and at or very near adulthood, and only after many other interventions have been ongoing. People who receive these interventions show incredibly low rates of regret (compare for example the percent of people who regret knee replacements or probably circumcisions), and enjoy increased happiness and satisfaction by almost any metric.

Basically every major medical organization in the world (and certainly in America) agrees these interventions are medically useful and should be performed. While there are doctors who dissent, they are in the vast minority and almost never actually work with any trans people, but rather insist all the doctors who do work with trans people must be wrong. It's not a controversy in the medical world, just the political one.

So, yeah. To paraphrase, "When reviewed by people without the same clear and obvious cultural bias, circumcision only conclusively provides an incredibly marginal benefit, with evidence lacking for other supposed (and still very marginal) benefits."

Can I just read Pratchett without fucking anyone? I'm ace and it's just really smelly and uncomfortable.
