He's also notoriously weak and thin skinned, a proper cunt can really take a pounding.

Unfortunately it probably won't end up meaning much for a lot of what they have planned for us due to the Supremacy Clause and the way things like FDA approval work. But codifying those protections into the State Constitution does give us at least grounds for resistance on some things here in NY.

I'm glad it passed, that amendment was basically the only reason I voted here in NY. But I don't think it's going to matter when they outlaw HRT or whatever else it is they plan to do.

Yeah. The Roberts Court has been nothing if not the Court of Post-Hoc Justification. They're great at concocting the most batshit crazy of legal theories to reach the outcome they want after shopping for the perfect cases to do so. I'm absolutely positive that if/when he gets an appeal to reach SCOTUS they'll give him exactly what he wants even if they have to tie themselves in logical pretzels or even directly contradict themselves to do it.

I guess it's a special kind of character called a ligature. They apparently are characters for combined operators. So in this case it seems to just be >>= all as one character?

I'd think it depends on if the same player cried for 2 different reasons or not. If they cried for the same thing it could be seen as cheating because you already knew what would make them cry.

Okay cool. You show the Democrats they will lose unless they put up better more Leftist candidates by handing Trump the victory. What now? At the pace we're going, Gaza won't be around in 2028. All of the Palestinians will be dead.

Some people think it's some kind of autism cure. It's just understanding the reasons behind behaviors in order to increase behaviors that are desirable and decrease behaviors that are undesirable. Problems could arise from what ends up being defined as undesirable behavior and how that reinforcement is done but that's true of basically anything with the goal of changing behaviors.

My wife is autistic and studied it herself because it helped her understand all the "social bullshit" as she called it.

For real. It sucks so hard that not having the classic disruptive hyperactivity is pretty much an express ticket to going undiagnosed. That's what caused me to go undiagnosed until like 27.

Luckily my daughter isn't going to have to go through the same thing. Between having an established family history, having that more classic hyperactivity you usually see in the boys, and the fact that we've known she's had it since my wife was pregnant with her and she'd take a nap while her twin brother got all hopped up on the caffeine my wife would use to help her migraines. Only reason she doesn't already have a diagnosis is because she's too young to officially diagnose. Everybody from her pediatrician, to the people at the clinic that diagnosed her autism, to her preschool program agrees she has it.

It was hilarious. One time, she stole an entire large iced capp while we were in the checkout line at Sam's Club. They were doing inventory at the nearby tables and one of the workers had sat it on the register. We didn't see it because they were in the cart on the other side of the checkout lane until we're get the cart back to leave and we just see this little thing HUGGING THE DAMN COFFEE to hide it and greedily chugging it. It was apparently full when she got it and she had drank pretty much the entire thing. The look of horror on that poor employee's face as my wife finally wrestles the cup away from her and it's got maybe 2oz left in it. She immediately fell asleep in the car and had what I can only assume was the best nap of her little life because she didn't wake up for like 4 hours. Even when I picked her up out of her seat.

I was specifically trying to get all the achievements in it in 1 run because I had borrowed it for just a weekend from a buddy of mine at my college. I got to the final boss and just unloaded everything. Fight ended in like 30 seconds.

I told him to check my achievements when I gave it back to him. I get a random Xbox live voice message of him just screaming "WHAT AAAAARE YOU!?" 10/10 would torture myself again.

It's toxic AF. Years ago when I was finally first starting to figure out that I was non-binary I tried to join a few online spaces to talk to people. The amount of places I was outright banned from or just made to feel I was clearly not welcome because I'm AMAB and was not on or planning to start HRT and my very existence was "triggering" to people there already was insane. And then there was the seemingly neverending parade of trans women who saw me as just an egg in need of cracking because of course they knew my gender better that I could possibly have and I'd be so much happier once I let go of all that internalized misogyny that was obviously the only thing keeping me from being an out and proud trans woman.

Never had anyone do that to me IRL. Even looking like the dudeliest Dad this side of a barbecue and the literal textbook definition of a Bear.

I'm so terminally awkward about all this. Cuz I want to be sure that the person I'm about to ask for help isn't like on break or waiting for their shift to start or something and "Excuse me, are you on the clock?" Sounds super condescending to me. So I just awkwardly default to "Do you work here?" or "Do you know someone who can help me?" because English is basically impossible for my dumbass self.
