To people who say that I have good writing I'm really surprised. I have a feature on my computer which checks for misspelled words so I don't really make mistakes that often and I also read Reddit quiet a bit so I know how people write posts so I try to follow that structure. It's nothing really special. I also can easily look for words on the internet. I learned somewhere that it's good to not repeat words so I use this website: http://www.thesaurus.com/browse/synonym to make my text richer.

> Michaelsoft Binbows

This is actually some pretty funny wordplay. On the top it says "Used PC and parts shop" and on the left "MEGA CHEAP." Binbows is very close to <em>binbou</em> which means "poor" and the store's actual name seems to be Michaelsoft.

I thought all it means is that women should have equal rights and opportunities as men. I consider myself a feminist.

Edit: or everyone saying I'm an egaltarian or whatever:

Edit again: if you call yourself an egaltarian instead of a feminist, I'm gonna assume you think "all lives matter" as well.

“Traitor” was the word used; treason is just one way to be a traitor.

> traitor - n. One who betrays one's country, a cause, or a trust, especially one who commits treason. > > from The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 4th Edition

Defrauding the United States of America by knowingly and willfully filing fraudulent tax returns is arguably betraying the country for one’s own financial gain.

Full quote:

"This is a huge disaster for football. I am shocked that it is coming true now. That a small underdog prevails, that was always the basis of football. If there is now a Super League in which Arsenal or Tottenham qualify forever without any sporting achievement, then the foundation of football will be taken away. Everyone must be aware that football will then change forever and will never be the same again. People are still dying all over the world, there is a lack of money at the front and at the back. These twelve clubs set up their own league and get 100 or 150 million shoved up their asses. You have to question the ethics of that. The sad thing is: at the end of the day, it's all about money, money, money. The damage would be so big that many fans will hopefully oppose it. I would take part in such protests."

You know what, I just looked at the definition of disease Here and Here and as much as I dont like it, it meets the criteria without question, I was wrong.

IIRC the rape bit comes from the part where they're forcibly/artificially inseminated by people/machinery for reproduction.

edit: People can/have/will argue over this point ad nauseam, don't assume that I'm the one making the claim.

If we were to attempt to settle the matter of whether or not it is rape, per se, we'd need to establish a contextual definition of the word rape and what is considered consent in this case. Dictionary.com is a good start. I'm sure that this very topic has been debated by more adept minds than mine so I won't conclusively say that it is/isn't rape... just that the convention of humans artificially procuring, diluting, and injecting bovine semen sure looks a lot like something that may be called rape.

We have a similar problem in Bloomington, IN.

We have a good social net here for homeless who appear here. The problem with that, is that anything you do to assist with homeless attracts more. And I mean a lot more.

As city government, what can you do? We have shelters, we have food banks, we have free delivered food; really there's lots of resources. And our numbers have doubled in the last 2 years. Any money left available is eagerly gobbled up by people coming from out of city/state to here. Add this to greyhound therapy, from other cities, and this is a problem.

What needs to be done is a war on poverty and homelessness, and it needs to be applied across the whole country. That will stem the flood of moving homeless to better areas, and we can start really fighting it.

EDIT(11:53 -500): "war on poverty and homelessness" was a bad phrase, and is derailing by attacking that phrase. Call it "ending homelessness", "fixing homelessness", or something.

EDIT(2:30 -500): /u/NoMoreNicksLeft has an intriguing solution revolving around stopping the game theory attributes of cities helping the homeless. Read about it here. It's a rough draft, but contains essential pieces to start solving the problems locally!

For some alternatives, here's a thesaurus.com page on synonyms for "savage". I'm partial to "turbulent" myself, but if you want to get really harsh you could go for "aboriginal".

1 fascism : a political philosophy, movement, or regime (as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition.

Up your diction, foo.

According to dictionaries now, the primary definition is

>the underdeveloped nations of the world, especially those with widespread poverty

with

>the group of developing nations, especially of Asia and Africa, that do not align themselves with the policies of either the U.S. or the former Soviet Union

being the second definition. Wikipedia says the same thing on the very page you linked. The above use is completely legitimate, though the ambiguity means you should probably use another term to describe poor underdeveloped nations.

They haven't gone anywhere. That's the problem. When you look at them, you should see a giant multi-billion dollar industry with a business model that is completely based on the production and sale of (personal-non-commercial use only) Abacuses.

When slide rulers came out, they sued and lost.

When calculators hit the scene, they sued and lost as well. However, they were successful in lobbying Congress to outlaw the act of looking at someone else's calculator, and also banning the practice of writing down any information obtained from the calculator.

They followed this up with a massive ad campaign that stated "You wouldn't multiply a CAR". Every calculator at the time had a huge FBI warning label on the box.

By the time PC's were common and everyone started getting online, they effectively lost their collective shit. They attempted to patent the number 4. They paid several disinfomation specialists to spread propaganda that division was only something loose women did with their legs.

They are still in court to this day, and 62% of the quarterly profits are lawsuit winnings, and the rest is actual larceny.

Though a genial character in general, the Fat Friar still resents the fact that he was never made a cardinal.

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/irregardless

>Is irregardless a word?

>Irregardless was popularized in dialectal American speech in the early 20th century. Its increasingly widespread spoken use called it to the attention of usage commentators as early as 1927. The most frequently repeated remark about it is that “there is no such word.” There is such a word, however. It is still used primarily in speech, although it can be found from time to time in edited prose. Its reputation has not risen over the years, and it is still a long way from general acceptance.

Irregardless how you feel about the word, it is a word.

The definition of cultural appropriation is when someone takes something significant from another culture and uses it or capitalizes off of it without understanding the significance or is disrespectful of it. No one can claim this situation as cultural appropriation because it's someone sharing their own culture.

No. Discussion != debate.

There are plenty of possible fruitful discussions to be had where neither side is trying to argue a point. A discussion is just an exchange of ideas, not necessarily a battle of arguments.

The first box is a fail for two reasons. First, one needn't necessarily be open to changing ones own position to be curious as to how other people think about things. Second, not being able to envision reasons to change one's mind may be due to a lack of imagination rather than a lack of openness to different ideas.

I can see the logic behind this flowchart, but it is incomplete and highly condescending.

Edit--Clarification: I take issue to the given definition of a discussion. >Discussions are a dialog between people in which the participants are willing to alter their position if it makes sense to do so. Sometimes, people confuse "discussion" with "sermon" or "lecture".

Where did you come up with this? According to Oxford, discussion

• is the action or process of talking about something in order to reach a decision or to exchange ideas
• a conversation or debate about a specific topic
• a detailed treatment of a topic in speech or writing

Clearly, a debate is a type of discussion, but is by no means the only sort of discussion.

We should consider ourselves lucky there weren't a lot more serious catastrophic accidents with nuclear power in the last 70 years.

At Sellafield, Britain's nuclear research complex since the 2nd half of the 20th century, a reactor core caught fire back in 1957. Radioactive contamination was released into the air through a cooling chimney, but it was manageable. The only reason this hasn't turned into an enormous disaster, is because just one single physicist insisted on the installation of air filters on top of the chimney. Everybody else involved during construction deemed it too cumbersome as well as unnecessary. His name was Sir John Cockcroft. Until the reactor fire, his air filter had been jokingly called Cockcroft's Folly.

Just goes to show how badly they underestimated the risks of nuclear power and how little they knew about how to manage the process properly. They were literally just making it up as they went along. Like a kid playing with a loaded gun, they were experimenting with nuclear power.

>I've been thinking. I was always taught that we had to stay close to the church to reaffirm our testimonies so that we wouldn't fall away. It made sense then. But now I've been thinking, and doubting.

If you're doubting the message that testimonies based on truth are in fact fragile objects, which require great care, you are questioning the truthfulness of the church's message. This is a big deal.

>I should be able to take a leave of absence from the church and come back as strong as I ever was. In order for me to believe, I have to stay extremely close. Isn't that the definition of brainwashing?

It's not the definition of brainwashing, but it could be a feature of brainwashing.

Here's my first question: Does the church work for you? Meaning, does it in general bring you happiness, a healthy sense of identity, does it strengthen family relationships, especially with your wife? Can you basically agree with it's worldview and stance on social issues?

If the answer to those questions is yes, FULL STOP. You need time to think about what you would be giving up if you go down the rabbit hole which awaits you here.

The next question is, given everything you know, and your life as you're living it, if the church is not true, would you want to know? If the answer is no, you're done here. Go back to church and re-strengthen your testimony.

If questioning the church is going to hurt your wife, be very very careful here man. Honestly, I would personally have rather had a happy marriage and stayed in the church. But I didn't, and it led to a change in my beliefs.

Other commentors are going to tell you to read a certain document, which many here feel disproves the foundational truth claims of the church. I advise against any such exploration at this point.

Back to /r/atheism with you.

Funny enough, in US English the word "homely" typically means "unattractive":

And would generally not be applied to a MILF.

I wouldn't rub a lemon in my eye either that doesn't make it unsanitary. Just because something is an irritant doesn't mean it's not sanitary. Acidity doesn't mean unsanitary.

The dictionary definition of unsanitary is unclean, unhealthful or with a tendency to harbour or spread disease. This is simply not the case of vaginal discharge which is completely healthy and does not harbour disease.

I occasionally fill out fake wedding registries. Some companies offer freebies to couples that put X amount of dollars worth of their products on their registry. Got all of my kitchen knives doing that. That Ema Nymton is quite a gal and deserves only the best.

This is the issue with saturation of news and hive mentality. The press is feeding on the Russia story and shows like Rachel Maddow are overplaying their hands breaking "news" like tax returns that really don't amount to anything. This gives the false illusion that Trump will be impeached "any day now".
The reality of the situation is that, as far as the public knows, there isn't a smoking gun yet; just a shitload of circumstantial evidence. Flynn's request for immunity over testimony doesn't mean he has the smoking gun, it just means that there might be some things that he may testify about that might lead to more circumstantial evidence in relation to this case, but might implicate him in some other unrelated crime.
Long story short, realistically it could take years before the intelligence services have a case that will impeach Trump. The Watergate scandal took about two years between the break-in into the DNC offices and Nixon's ~~impeachment~~ "voluntary, uncoerced early retirement by his own free will and choosing", and he probably wouldn't even have ~~been impeached~~ taken "voluntary, uncoerced early retirement by his own free will and choosing" if the Senate wasn't democratic majority. I expect this story to take as long, if not longer, to come to a conclusion.

Except it was, yes, the CIA actually killed him. It is pretty much swept under the rug in the US but there are even MSM articles out about that in Germany:

German article with many sources

For translation you can use Deepl

The term “allies” only seems to imply “moral high ground” in the modern mindset because that is the way the narrative of World War II is taught in most countries today: simply put, “allies” equals “good” and “axis” equals “evil”. However, the word “ally” itself does not intrinsically carry a moral connotation. The Cambridge Dictionary defines “ally” as: “a country that has agreed officially to give help and support to another one, especially during a war”, and gives as an example: “During the First World War, Turkey and Germany were allies/Turkey was an ally of Germany.”

In other wars throughout history which are not viewed as clear-cut conflicts between “good” and “evil” the way World War II is, there have been alliances, and referring to the countries in such alliances as “allies” does not confer them the “moral high ground”. In fact, the whole matter of the “moral high ground” can be a subject for a lengthy philosophical debate, but while an alliance can be entered into for moral reasons, usually all countries view their own actions as “right” and “just” and those of their enemies as “wrong”, even though the ulterior motives for such an alliance can be later judged as immoral by others.

In other words, the term “allies” has a distinct positive moral connotation in modern use due to the perception of the “good” vs “evil” fight of World War II. I’d like to add that in a similar way, terms like “empire” and “dictator” now tend to have a negative connotation, which they did not have historically (e.g. during the time of the Roman Empire) because of how they are viewed retrospectively today.

This whole thing over the past few weeks has taught me one thing. Irregardless of whether you are male, female, feminist, egalitarian, or whatever, one thing shines through. There are two types of people: assholes with a power trip, and everyone else.

Look at how quick he turns on her once he realizes he can't convince her of his beliefs. It goes from 'women are oppresed' to 'you hate all other women' to 'you're sexist' to 'you're having a psychotic episode'. He's an asshole at heart who's weaponizing nice to tell others how they're wrong.

Also, how long until people realize twitter isn't the place to have discussions like this. He averages 4 tweets per point he makes. It's annoying to read everything broken up.

Edit: http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/irregardless the dictionary definition of the word that pissed everyone off since I was downvoted for posting it below.

Defined as "the crime of unlawfully killing a person especially with malice aforethought."

Since the Death Eaters were attacking Hogwarts and the students, Neville was acting in the defense of himself and others, so I'd say the distinction between kill and murder is definitely applicable here.

Copy & Paste from one of my old posts explaining the modern misuse of 'ye':

'The' was written as y^e , like 'that' was written y^t . So modern readers just confused the 'e' as part of the same line as 'y' and didn't understand it was a shortening/symbol for a different word entirely. I've also seen the y with superscript e in plenty of text reprints from the 1800s.

This explains how 'y' came to be used over thorn to begin with. The letter þ was used for 'th' sound but wasn't on typesetters, so a letter resembling it, 'y', was used. The 'ye' misunderstanding does result from superscript "e"s used to spell 'the'.

You have to consider more than merely the act of killing the animal. We keep animals imprisoned in abhorrent living conditions, we force them to reproduce (which arguably amounts to rape anyway), we kill them, we wear the remnants of their dead bodies. And this is all socially accepted - we (or at least most people) don't think twice about doing this.

We can ethically kill a human "vegetable" because we believe doing so puts them out of their suffering. That's not why we kill animals. We kill animals for food (which is arguably unnecessary). We kill animals for leisure and sport (which is definitely unnecessary).

The fact is that pets exist for the pleasure of their owners (and before anyone gets upset - this is literally the definition of the word &quot;pet&quot;). Be that as the pet is his legal property and that he does not appear to be actively harming (that is, damaging the physical or mental wellbeing) of his pet, is what he doing really wrong? Or do we just think that because it seems gross?

I would pronounce those differently. "Oooooooh" would be a drawn out version of this, while "Ohhhhhh" would be a drawn out version of "oh".

Looks like 'well-educated' can be considered proper grammar, according to the free dictionary and the online cambridge dictionary. Maybe well-educated vs well educated is one of those American English/English English differences?

A sexual position requiring two women and one man. One woman sits on the other's face, allowing the woman being sat on to provide cunnilingus. The woman receiving cunnilingus must position her posterior parallel to the other woman's breasts. At that point, the man may enter and slide his penis between one woman's breasts until he enters the other woman's anus. This creates a "cheeseburger": two buns, some cheese, and meat.

Not sure how people don't know this, but general sadness is literally part of the dictionary definition of depression. In fact, I think this colloquial sense predates the clinical definition.
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/depression

>(1) : a state of feeling sad : dejection <anger, anxiety, and depression>

The clinical sense is not the only definition, just the most prominent one these days.

>(2) : a psychoneurotic or psychotic disorder marked especially by sadness, inactivity, difficulty in thinking and concentration, a significant increase or decrease in appetite and time spent sleeping, feelings of dejection and hopelessness, and sometimes suicidal tendencies <bouts of depression> <suffering from clinical depression>

Temporary depression isn't an oxymoron, it is using a different meaning of the word which is every bit as valid. If you want to avoid ambiguity you can just say clinical depression to refer to the disorder, that way people won't misinterpret it as just a temporary unhappiness.

In fairness, another way to avoid ambiguity would be to avoid saying "depressed" when you mean "sad", but at this point that is still a perfectly legitimate and common use of the word.

I understand it's a pointless exercise but, as a certified Assologist I feel obligated to speak.

The only thing glorious about that ass is the famous face it's attached to. As an ass, evaluated on its own merit it's flat, quite nearly noassatall. Furthermore, any shred of desirable plumpness that ass might actually have is ruined by the completely unflattering position and angle.

To be honest, I don't think saying it like this is necessary. Here are my arguments:

1. Trans wlw are extremely well informed on how everything works when it comes to genitalia, so there is very little chance of unplanned pregnancy (or at least definietely less than a "typical" cis man). This already fits the definition of birth control. (<em>The act or process of deliberately limiting the number of one's children born.</em>)
2. I believe we should use the "innocent until proven guilty" rule with things like this. What I mean by this is that we shouldn't nitpick and just assume someone didn't mean anything is a bad way. Nitpicking in this case becomes unnecessary and if you want to include everyone the sentence would have to sound like this: Me and my sexual partner have sets of ganitalia unfitted for mutual impregnation. Do you see what I mean? Your correction didn't include enbies and intersex people and it doesn't mean you didn't include them in what you meant. (This is not a judgement, only a thing to notice.)

Maybe "nitpicking" is not the best word. Generally I assume that when people say "lesbianism" they don't exclude trans girls, especially on the amazing subs like this one or the r/actuallesbians.

I hope you can see my point and it doesn't seem mean or excluding, because that's the last thing I want. Also, I'm not saying that we shouldn't specifically include trans gurls in what we are saying, only that not mentioning us doesn't mean not including.

I asked a Japanese person to take a look, and this is almost certainly more advanced than you need to worry about for now, but one interesting thing they said was, when they read handwritten Japanese, they expect that, if there's any variation in spacings, at least the space within logical groupings should be tighter.

So for example, in your third to last sentence, 私は and 一年半ぐらい are logical groupings which should have tighter spacing within them than the spaces between them. In other words, they expected the は to be closer to the 私 but said the spacing between は and 一 looked fine to them.

Of course, consistent grid spacing is also fine, which can be a way to avoid worrying about this for now :)

Side note: They mentioned they were surprised to see 始めまして (the expected kanji is 初めまして). When they did a search, they found out that this seems to be a common choice that foreigners seem to use, and in fact the dictionary says both are OK! But in practice, native speakers use the latter, and even jisho.org only shows one choice.

初 has more of an emphasis on "This is the first time"

始 has more of a feeling like, "Something is starting up".

One concrete case for the latter is used commonly in noodle shops - when summer arrives and it's once again the season for cold noodles, you might find a sign that says「冷やし中華始めました」, or, "We've started serving Hiyashi Chuuka noodles"

Hiragana is also fine: はじめまして

Hülkenberg to drive for Perez

Nico Hülkenberg is on the verge of a lightning comeback in Formula 1. 32-year-old Nico Hülkenberg has confirmed to RTL that he will enter the racing point cockpit for Sergio Perez, who is infected with the corona virus, at the British GP in Silverstone if he himself tests negative for Covid-19. The test result is still pending.

I could be wrong, but I believe that piqued should have been used here instead of peaked. For future reference of course.

That being said, very interesting read. I'm surprised he had to actually sue the PGA in order for them to let him use a cart. Seems like a dick move on the PGA's part.

I hate to contradict you my friend, but anorexia actually is a medical term for a lack or loss of appetite for food, as well as a name for the eating disorder (anorexia nervosa).

So reddit won't let me log back in to the throwaway, even though I'm pretty sure I'm using the right password...but basically just wanted to say thanks guys, this made me feel a lot better about what I did. Some points:

a) I meant to (and thought I had) post this in AskReddit, so thanks for not calling me out on that.

b) What is a chav? Best described here - yes, this happened in the UK and the comment about CCTV made me chuckle (and then made me sad).

c) I have no intention of starting to seek out this kind of thing, as much of a thrill as I inevitably got from reading the "you're a superhero" comments. I hereby pass the Scarfman mantle on to whoever wants it.

Ban and suspend have always been used interchangeably because neither word has some time frame inherent to their definition. Ban means forbid. Suspend means to stop an activity. "Lifetime suspension" is a pretty common term.

Hypercorrection detected!

dictionary says:

They should just say "no prostitutes" if they want to be correct. Escorts are precisely who they're connecting people with.

I've actually just checked some of his recent posts. Not a single F was found. However, F has a fairly low frequency in English.

Are you that stupid, that you will make a claim and feign horror without even doing background research? Here is the Oxford Dictionary definition of tanorexia. Please do not speak so rudely to another human being, whether it be in person or on the internet, in trying to get a point across. Matter-of-fact research is much more influential than calling strangers stupid for no reason.

The engine power, in 2019 is not the problem for Red Bull. The Japaanse Honda engine, located in the back of the Max Verstappen and Pierre Gasly cars, has managed to hold its own for the time being. Whereas Helmut Marko's statements about the lead over Renault appear to be less exaggerated, the Red Bull consultant comes up with even more good news: in Baku the new engine will be waiting for them.

&#x200B;

A remarkable statement from Marko in China, since Marko previously thought that a combination of chassis and engine upgrades would only be put on the RB15 in Monaco: Already one race later than initially planned. Red Bull wanted to have the 'new' version of the RB15 on the track in Barcelona.

&#x200B;

Honda, on the other hand, doesn't have to wait to see what Red Bull's aerodynamics department does and has apparently found more speed in a shorter time. And quite a bit: De Telegraaf announces that it would be twenty more horsepower: that would be equivalent to a sloppy two-tenths of a second gain in time per lap.

&#x200B;

The only question is which parts will be replaced in the upgrade: just the combustion engine wouldn't be a problem yet, changing to a new set of all parts in race four would mean being on the verge of grid penalties. Especially since Honda, like in 2018, wants to come up with two major upgrades during the 2019 season.

If the shoe fits...

That's why you always lay down a landing pad.

It has the dual purpose of keeping your butt dry and notifying you before the dump that you're out of toilet-paper.

JustNos can't compute or accept rejection. It means the person rejecting them is under the influence and control of someone else. Because everything is power and control.

She is saying he is under your power and control, since he's clearly not under hers. And that the target of your power and control tactics is... HERSELF.

Your goal is to cause HER difficulties, frustration, or pain.

> I want you to know that when someone gets mad at you, it is their way of trying to be in control of you.

Oh rly? How does that saying go? "When someone tells you who they are, believe them." She is telling you who SHE is here.

That is the nature of projection. When someone assumes other key players have the same motives, biases, tendencies, tactics, and beliefs as themselves, and assign those motives to the other players, what they are actually doing is revealing who THEY are.

See how this all comes back to her?

This letter is all "Me, me, me, me, meeeee."

Me me me, because I cared for my dying mother.

Me me me because I defended my child.

Me me me because that child wrote ME a poem for it!

(Notice she did not write HIM a comforting poem in this fantasy, HE wrote HER one, he comforted HER!)

Me me me because you couldn't possibly have your own authentic reasons for distancing yourself from meeeeee. It's because of that other woman and HER power and control that she is trying to direct AT ME.

Ugh. I could keep going but honestly it's making me feel a little sick and disoriented.

The word for this is Solipsism. It's when someone is so far gone beyond pride, or ego, or self centeredness that it's almost incomprehensible and maddening in it's eternally circular, infallibly self serving reasoning. Even when a Solipsistic person TRIES to make it about and FOR the other person, they can't. They are categorically unable to.

Disability: "A physical or mental condition that limits a person's movements, senses, or activities".

Being bloated to all fuck with a human inside you certainly inhibits movement and activity. You're not stating opinion here, you're just wrong, pregnancy objectively makes someone less able to do most jobs.

The title is kind of misleading.

Tortoises are a family within the order turtle. So all tortoises are turtles but not all turtles are tortoises.

So because all tortoises live on land, it's common for people to colloquially say "turtle" when only referring to sea-dwelling turtles. Because "turtle" is easier to say than "sea-dwelling chelonian".

Also, in British English the word &quot;turtle&quot; pretty much exclusively refers to the sea-dwelling chelonians, whereas in the US is refers to all chelonians.

All this hype and mystery about Jiren's wish makes it seem like he'll be the one to win the SDBs. One interesting difference: in the anime, it says the "best" warrior will get the wish; in the manga it says the "strongest". I'm not sure what the Japanese says in the manga, but in the anime, it's 最優秀.

False. There's also deer-reeve, and then subbookkeeper, which as far as I can tell is the only quadruple double letter word. Arguably a tattooist tattoos on a tattooee too.

There's also Woolloomooloo, which also has three, but given it's a place, I thought it disingenuous to include.

I didn't know what you were talking about so I looked up 'Water Sports' in urban dictionary Link and I can honestly say I've never heard of that before.

I'm American and "water sports" to me means boating, water skying, wake boarding, canoeing, kayaking, etc...

I think this 'new' definition is stupid and something little 13 year old boys snicker about in the back of the school bus.

You should not worry about using the term 'water sports' in the way you meant. It means exactly what you think it means and I would certainly question the maturity level and reasoning capabilities of anyone who says otherwise.

My two favorite definitions to point out to liberals: McCarthyism and the actual definition of bigotry.

Just a quick translation

Currently the eighth and final season of Game of Thrones is running. With "Die lange Nacht" HBO released the third episode recently. The end of the Westeros adventure awaits us in three further episodes. And what comes after that?

&#x200B;

Well, at least no spinoff from Bryan Cogman. This was revealed by the author, who had repeatedly been responsible for episodes of Game of Thrones in recent years (most recently in Episode 2 of Season 8: A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms) in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

&#x200B;

Cogman worked with George R.R. Martin on a concept for a spinoff to Game of Thrones, but according to the author, HBO decided to take a different path. His prequel series will never exist. He now works for Amazon and supports the people responsible there in their shows.

Notes:

- They're all machine translation (no humans edit involved).

- I've used the latest Sugoi Japanese Translator offline model combined with DeepL translator.

I think the machine translator is improved a lot, and it's way better than Google Translate. This would be a very good translator for people who wants to play otome game in Japanese but don't know any Japanese. What do you think?

This actually makes sense.

Typing fierce in the Thesaurus gives us synonyms like terrible, frightening, horrible, and animal-like.

So, I can't say I disagree with this image.

Use automatic translation ... for example, deepl.com translates this as follows, quite readable:

While Paul Klee was teaching at the Bauhaus, the lecture cycles recorded in a book from November 1921 to the end of 1922, which Klee described as contributions to the theory of visual form, and around 3900 loose manuscript pages, which were written between 1923 and 1931 and are summarised under the title "Bildnerische Gestaltungslehre" (Theory of Visual Design), were created. Today, all teaching notes are kept in the archives of the Zentrum Paul Klee in Bern.

&#x200B;

Investigations into Klee's teaching notes have so far mainly been based on two editions by Jürg Spiller, although these have been criticised since their publication. Spiller changed the original structure of the material by tearing individual sheets out of context, combining them at his own discretion and supplementing the original documents with his own representations. In addition, there is often no proof of the sources. He started from the idea of a complete, self-contained system that could be reconstructed from the various manuscripts. In the first volume Das bildnerische Denken (1956) he combined statements from Klee's teaching with his writings and statements from the lecture in Jena, without taking into account the context and history of the texts. Huggler criticized that Spiller applied a static instead of a dynamic view: "The temporal stratification of the theoretical material as well as the trains of thought remained unnoticed. In 1970, Spiller published Infinite Natural History without any significant methodological changes.

I love the flippant way this is thrown into the mix, as if the idea of a (very recent ex-)virgin getting penetrated not only vaginally, but also anally and orally simultaneously is a bit dull after Hymen-Cam.

I see a lot of uh-LEESE but I would adjust that slightly to ih-LEESE. Like when you say the words elide or elapse. The ih sound is a little more quick/clipped than the uh.

Out of curiosity, I decided to look up the various dictionary definitions to see whether there were any sense in which the statement wasn't just bullshit. From Merriam-Webster, "witness, <em>n</em>.: 4. one who has personal knowledge of something"

The world's population is larger today than at any previous US presidential inauguration, and modern digital & social media make the worldwide spread of information easier than for all former inaugurations with the possible exception of Obama's, so...it depends on what the meaning of 'is' is...(forthcoming drinking games based on WHPS ~~doublespea~~ statements may kill a lot of us the next few years)

ETA: finished listening to the video of the WHPS. IANAPhysician, but sounds like that dude's blood pressure is through the roof. Wow.

It's called ignorance. At some point we all have a choice to either remain that way or change ourselves.

Some type of ignorance is acceptable. For example, I for the life of me cannot wrap my mind around quantum and/or theoretical physics. I just can't and I'm fine with that. I have no interest in hurting my head trying to understand things like that. So, I choose to remain in ignorance.

However, when it comes to empathy or understanding another human being's situation or point of view, I find this completely unacceptable and intolerable ignorance. Shame on those who choose to be this way.

Even if you've never worked in a movie theater or a restaurant, you have at some point in your life had a job that required you to deal with a customer of some sort. You should know where that person is coming from. I don't think anyone working in a movie theater has the intention of specifically targeting you to make sure you have a bad experience.

Stop being so selfish and get over yourself!

Thanks for making this list OP. It may or may not make a difference, but it just might open a few people's eyes.

Rape = unlawful sexual intercourse or any other sexual penetration of the vagina, anus, or mouth of another person, with or without force, by a sex organ, other body part, or foreign object, without the consent of the victim.

She was raped.

You know, I thought it might be too, so I checked. GT's output is indeed very close to that, but it uses the formal "you": "Sie" rather than "dich". It also loses context midstream, and uses "Lasst" (plural) rather than "Lass" (singular) or "Lassen Sie" (formal).

It's probably not from DeepL, either. DeepL keeps the correct context, and also lets you choose the formality of your translation; if you choose "Informal tone", it's a match, except that it suddenly switches to using "Monumente" rather than "Denkmäler".

Nerd here. All it does these days is likely get you a steady paycheck and job and people still hate you for it.

I'm sure this won't help but the irony of being downvoted as a nerd, for pointing out that being a nerd is still unpopular, is fantastic.

It wasn't necessarily sexual; "puss" just meant 'face', like sometimes you hear "sourpuss".

> puss^2 : noun, Slang.

> 1. face: "She smacked him in the puss."

> 2. mouth: "Shut your puss before I shut it for you."

Do you see the problem with conflating that definition with dictionary definitions?
