The post comes in late since, for my at least, Kbin was down for a few days.
The episode was good. I used that picture of Ross because I laughed so fucking hard when he did that stunt with the leg, and laughed even harder at Ru's reaction.
I was hoping Shannel and Angeria would win, mainly because I'm getting sick of Shannel not getting the recognition she deserves. Her being the only one without a badge feel incorrect. I hope that changes soon.
Yeah I have mixed feelings about characters on snatch game. There are some notable exceptions though, like Trinity the Tuck's devil, which cracks me up till this day lol
There were more bombings than I had anticipated for an All Stars season. Highlights were Angeria, Nina, Shannel and Gottmik.
I thought it was crazy Gottmik got the win for that lipsync. Nina fucking deconstructed the very idea of a reveal in that lipsync. That shit was iconic. I am starting to think Gottmik is going to be heavily pushed by production to snatch the crown, or at least make it to the finale. While I do agree she's incredibly talented, when queens are pushed by production I sort of stop liking them =/
Shiiit I love this season already. What an iconic cast. I can already tell there's going to be some of the best confesionals we've seen in the franchise. I am specifically dying for Roxxxy's and Vanje's. Anjeria also delivers.
I think the only queen I'm not really a fan of is Gottmik. For the rest, I live for all of them. It's crazy to see, now I'm watching her again, that I think Shannel is the OG delusional queen LOL
That lipsync was everything. I thought Jorgeous had it at first but Anjeria turned it up. Her old southern christian lady dance really does it for Ru.
At first I wasn't so happy about the cutting a queen off twist, but seeing the queens are taking it like a compliment puts some relief into the whole situation.
And I'm calling it already in episode one: My favorite to take the crown right now is Roxxxy. Let's see how things evolve.
Interesting and related: Noam Chomsky, in his work as linguist, has stated that what reaches the ear (or the eye in this case) is not what reaches the mind. What this means is that we experience language as if it was linearly ordered, when at the cognitive level (in the mind) language is actually hierarchically organized. This means that the underlying structure of language has to interface with the sensory-motoe systems in order to transform the hierarchical structure into a linear one. This is why we sometimes also struggle putting our thoughts into words, because in that interface there is a change in structure that doesn't always preserve the 'original' (hierarchical) structure
Hi! Back in reddit there was a DID community. Is there something equivalent in the fediverse? I'm not a system myself but I know a few and I am doing some research on the topic, so I'd be really appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction
Same here. I used to shave my head and face but recently I went through a period of over-work and didn't have time to shave. Everyone told me I looked better with hair and beard, including the wife. So hair and beard it is then
I guess ultimately the end process is what's important, there I agree with you. However, with ethical issues, or matters of principle, you could argue time is of the essence.
For example, if the Western world had taken 30 more years in embracing the importance of LGTBIQ+ rights, we would be now at the same place as the likes of Russia or Saudi Arabia, which is a place we feel good about not being.
So in a way yes, the end result is what matters, but in the meantime it does kinda sucks to live in a society that normalizes something that will undoubtedly be considered morally wrong and unethical in the future
What is an extreme is relative. Are we in an extreme because we don't tolerate slavery? Is having only one slave less extreme then? In the current context I guess you can see veganism as one end of the spectrum, but calling it an extreme has the connotation that it is an unreasonable position.
We can have meat consumption without the industrialized part, sure. But ethical veganism claims eating animals is wrong, regardless of how you kill them. Just like we now consider slavery to be wrong, regardless of how good the slave is treated.
I agree with you. I guess the difference lies in that I would call that laziness. Not knowing how to eat balanced meals (or more precisely, not looking it up), it's not a matter of it being hard or easy. It's a matter of simply doing it. All the information is out there and at a level anyone who can read will understand
Maybe you are thinking of processed vegan food, like a vegan nugget or hamburger. That is completely unnecessary. beans, lentils, chickpeas, seaweed, grains, rice, vegetables, nuts.... those are widely available and enough for a healthy diet.
For the rest I agree, it's easier to convince an omnivore to go vegetarian than vegan. But that has to do with their will, not with actual physical limitations.
For me it was down for several days. Now it seems usable so far (I manage to post a thread and a comment at least). Upvotes seem to be working as well

Plastique is the gold standard of glow up.. Really wow....

Hahaha I'm saying "uguly bitch" so much these days

I thought I read the title wrong. Good for them
Am Chilean. Can confirm

Agreed!
Aaaah ok ye now I get it.

I guess you meant to say fast but easy, or longer but hard, right?
Maybe the random community would be appropriate too
