The Library of Babel by Borges melted my brain as a teenager.

What are some of your favorite mods you have on this playthrough?

Right, I think this is the point that the above comment is making as well. That the numbers of publicly/out gay people went up because of a more accurate count thanks to a less hostile sociopolitical climate.

I think the point that's being confused in that comment is that the fear mongering was obviously bullshit, and modern bigots pointing at any increase in LGBTQ+ identification nowadays may continue to use those statistics as justification for anti-LGBTQ+ platforms. Instead of engaging that argument that the hate mongers have always known is in bad faith, it's much more to the point nowadays to make them explain what they think is wrong with increased LQBTQ+ identification, or as the original comment put it, "Yeah, and?"

1 month today 🙌

Thanks for providing this. Very well might be the source of the quote based on the date published.

Also worldnetdaily.com is known for promoting falsehoods and is considered a hate group so I think there's still a decent chance that even that article linked isn't a real quote from Norris, though it might be since he was self-promoting via "Chuck Norris facts" for a while.

Anybody got a source on that quote? Looked for a minute but didn't find proof he said that. Chuck is a dumbass and those sentiments are echoed here, but this kind of seems like a fake meme quote to me. Please provide a source if I've missed it!

Maybe a nice dinner with all the money I've already saved!

Getting close to my first week sober in a very long time! IWNDWYT!

After 12 years of drinking daily, today was the first day where I woke up with the intention to never drink again. I made it to the end of day 1 of sobriety, and I'm proud, even though there is a very long road ahead.

I woke up today not wanting to drink, and I didn't. And I'm going to do the same thing tomorrow.

Thanks for these posts, they kept the fact that I needed to quit in the back of my head when scrolling.

Bruh if I could extend my dog’s life by my smartphone’s lifespan for the same cost I of course would. Everybody I know would

Still a lot to do and fill out. All surfaces are sealed a long time ago and should be reptile safe. Cat palm is reptile safe from what I’ve seen.

Just put this out with my band and would love some feedback. Quite proud of how it turned out, but always looking to improve. Thanks for listening!

 

She’s from a shelter so we don’t know exactly what mix of breeds she is, but she’s very large and has a lot of loose skin like a lot of breeds bred for their coats. She’s 6 going on 7 years old!

 
 
 

We had Luca for less than 24 hours at this point, but he was obviously already making a big impression on us

 

Our happy shiba just turned three years old and we love him to bits. He’s eyeing a (dog safe) sandwich just out of frame we made as a birthday feast 🥰
