It's genuinely great to hear that that wasn't the overall goal or intention of the idea.
That said, I think it also does need to be acknowledged that there absolutely were prominent influencers on social media who preached HAES literally - as in, posting videos vehemently declaring the doctors are lying to you and obesity is actually perfectly healthy.
I guess as with many other things, it's a case of the extreme outliers (who in this case, as you say, didn't even get the point) getting the most attention and spoiling things for the sane people.
I think there was a proposal floated with the idea of a new name in Chinook, "Illaheechuck", but it failed to - as you say - get buy in from the public at large. I like the idea of a name in Chinook, though - what better bridge between native and settler than the language they mutually created?
I'm just curious, could you expand on what the rules are pertaining to this subject here? This is the first I've heard of it, since the Rules on the sidebar don't mention it.
Of course I don't condone shooting perps or their lawyers, but I frankly don't have any difficulty whatsoever in understanding him. This case is one of the most vile crimes I've seen in our province, and I can't imagine what the family has had to go through.
And to add to that, while the defence lawyers certainly are just doing their job, their arguments were utterly revolting. An insult to the victim, her family, and the collective intelligence of the people of this province. Supposedly the perp's lawyer has received copious death threats, and again - I'm sure none of us condone shooting lawyers, I think it's hard to blame people.
I'm just glad the jury had none of it and found him guilty.
Anyone who has followed this conflict closely can see alarming gaps in the Forces' equipment. The lack of systems like self-propelled guns, rocket artillery, and weaponised drones / loitering munitions would put our troops in a seriously bad position if push came to shove.
The brutal reality is that Putin's Russia embodies everything the Trump Republicans dream of for America: a boundlessly corrupt, white supremacist, ethnonationalist fascist state whose oligarchs possess limitless power so long as they obey The President.
They call themselves the "party of Reagan", while they trip over themselves to sell the geopolitical future of Europe down the river to Moscow...
I see that they used the wrong tense for "described", but that could be a typo. Other than that it seems grammatical to me. I guess "alluded to" and "described" are redundant, but that's more a stylistic defect than an actual error imo.
I know here in BC the Labour ministry has job centres called "WorkBC" that not only help with resumes and job searches, but actually have dedicated classes specifically for newcomers from Ukraine.
P.S. Welcome! We're glad to have you, and I hope everything works out without too much trouble :)
Well, it's a good thing that the Bad Foreigners are to blame for the issue — otherwise the Kremlin might be forced to engage in critical thinking over the implications of their incessant agitprop for the stability in minority regions, and we can't have that.
This article has confirmation from the GUR, Ukrainian military intelligence, that Kadyrov is critically ill. There are no exact details on what he has other than that it's related to a chronic health condition, potentially kidney failure given his facial swelling. It's also long been reported that he's an addict.
I also call attention to the fact that Kadyrov allegedly had his personal physician executed in suspicion that the latter was poisoning him. It would truly be poetic justice if denying himself that medical treatment in a fit of paranoia precipitated this (hopefully terminal) episode.
"Great Patriotic War" is the fine conceit of historical revisionism that lets the Russians neatly overlook the unpleasant little detail that WW II started with the Soviets fighting as cobelligerents with Nazi Germany to invade Poland.
This summary leaves out that said "cease and desist" notices also threatened execution for noncompliance — at the same time as the head cultist was urging her followers to kill nurses administering vaccines, prompting her followers to post pictures of their firearm arsenals.
It is only a matter of time before the cultists kill someone.
That's great. Those hideouts always had an eerie horror ambience even in vanilla Morrowind — I look forward to seeing how they're all realised in SkyWind!

"Chinese officials visibly nervous at the outpouring of public praise for dead leader [who they had sidelined and demoted]."
Русский, no — Российский, yes.

I admire your optimism.
Here is a bypass.
"State-sanctioned criminal violence"?
No, sorry Mr. Modi, you're thinking of Gujarat in 2002, not Canada in 2023.

Where was that? I hadn't heard of it, but I fully believe you.
