It didn’t? StRawbeRy has 2 rs. StRawbeRRy has 3.

“when is it reasonable to say no to sex?”

Whenever you don’t feel like it.

How is this whataboutism? They only pointed out that the US has a long history of doing shitty things without being controlled by some foreign actor. It’s perfectly plausible that Trump is doing shitty things because he thinks he will personally gain something out of it, without anyone pulling his strings. He just doesn’t care if the rest of the country goes up in flames.

Is Wikipedia “Kremlin approved literature”?

The first camps were established in March 1933 immediately after Adolf Hitler became Chancellor of Germany. Following the 1934 purge of the SA, the concentration camps were run exclusively by the SS via the Concentration Camps Inspectorate and later the SS Main Economic and Administrative Office. Initially, most prisoners were members of the Communist Party of Germany, but as time went on different groups were arrested, including “habitual criminals”, “asocials”, and Jews.

Yeah, I hate this show because it shits on the legendarium and it’s poorly made, not because there’s a black elf and women have a modicum of agency. But if you watch 10 video critiques of the show, 1 will be well reasoned and informative, 1 will contain barely hidden dog whistles and 8 will just be philofash openly raging about minorities, “wokeism” and how women don’t belong outside the kitchen.

Edit: I also feel like the reviewers and opinion writers that defended the show did a pretty poor job. Instead of the general “actually, if you don’t like it you are racist” they could have attacked the bigots’ bullshit while acknowledging that the show is not good. Something like “rop is bad, but not because of black people or strong women” would have had more people behind it.

Xi continues to win by doing nothing.

Yes. I also wash my nice boxers, my nice t-shirts, and dry clean my suits.

I guarantee if Mufasa was animated it’d be running neck and neck with Sonic 3 instead of lagging behind).

But mufasa IS animated

They get one per parent, not all of the previous ones. The child of Juan Lopez Sánchez and Ana Heredia Marín would be called Firstname Lopez Heredia. If this child had a child with Luisa Ribera Zapatero the kid would be Firstname Lopez Ribera.

By default the fathers last name goes first, but they can decide to swap the last names to put the mother’s first.

Regarding B, the way we do it in the latin world is just by having 2 last names, one per parent. So the child of Jose Perez and Irene Martinez is named Alberto Perez Martinez (the fathers last name is the first by default but you can change order). Its not a problem when picking up children from schools or whatever.

excessive spice

Why? I could just say that “wow, my friend gave me some spicy peppers because I like spicy food, but this is way overkill. I’ll have to go get takeaway.”

Not tasting food before eating it is not a crime.

I think the problem won’t be the formula, it’ll be the progressive dumbing down and simplification that Beth is doing since like forever. It will sell well just because it’s TES, though. Also, if Emil “lol who cares about lore” Pagliarulo is leading the writing and he treats it like he did with FO4…

Thomas Sankara and Rosa Luxemburg

I love how in the US getting Hitler elected would just be a matter of having a total of one worse person run for president. Then the Dems would be selling him as the saviour of the working class and minorities.

“What? Third party? You might as well be voting for Hitl… Wait”

Yeah, and he went away not because they voted him out but thanks to Soviet weapons.

I’m a commie, so I’m all for social ownership of the means of production, but that’s neither here nor there. The point is, there isn’t a scale of how pure capitalism is: a Keynesian model is as capitalistic as laissez-faire is because the underlying relationships to capital are the same. Communism isn’t at the other end of any scale because it’s an entirely different model, not just more or less regulation.

Some may argue that no country is socialist because they are still transitioning, and that they are still capitalist, but that’s not a scale: they are not socialist (yet, hopefully) because their mode of production is still capitalistic.

Regulated capitalism is still capitalism. There’s no such thing as “pure” or “impure” capitalism, the social relationships to capital are the same. Lassiez-faire capitalism is just a flavour of it.

It’s like ice-cream: you may prefer chocolate ice-cream over vanilla ice-cream, but they are both flavours of ice-cream and you wouldn’t say “yea, that’s not pure ice-cream”. Some people may even dislike ice-cream altogether and prefer cheesecake.

So, Hamill’s social media?

He could even justify it to the fans as a collab with a well-known author, who would do the bulk of writing with Martin as a supervisor/big picture guy. Like if Jordan had spoken with Sanderson to finish WoT before he died.
