SVU shit happened there. It wasn’t just actors or consensual bs from some freaks. It was, compare that girl to the girl on the missing posters on vicap and the fbi missing people posts shit.
Then the Arabics found the place. They began auctions of their “concubines” giving their real cell numbers.

Wendy's got game.
We up here in USA have become accustomed to thinking about our Congresspeople as sitting in cubicles in windowless rooms, calling rich people and begging them for money... and not doing much else.
Back in '78 Leo Ryan (Dem., Calif. 11), traveled to Guyana to investigate reports of human rights abuses at the USA-founded People's Temple. It was not his first attempt to personally learn about a social injustice. It was his last.
I wonder sometimes about my auditory sensitivities.
My mother has been a piano and general music teacher my whole life. I was raised on piano, French horn (to escape my mother's tutelage), and all kinds of music.
I find that there so very very many songs that evoke memories. Maybe it's more than that.
I can barely create much less hold an image in my mind (I'm told this is often an #actuallyautistic trait), yet these memories, just for a moment, are so vivid!
People have this expression: "That takes me back...". It is just that. For a brief moment, I remember exactly where I was, who was there, what I was looking at, which way I was facing. Hell, often I could even tell you which cardinal direction I was facing. Yet I can't recall the date, the weather, though usually the approximate time of day.
After working through most of the PTSD (because you "work through it", not "get over it"), I'm come around to seeing these as moments of reverie: a gift to be savored, a rare moment of calm in an atypically difficult life.
I wonder how this is for othesr? I suspect mine may be more detailed than most.
I will not be attending twitchcon

the RAMPANT sexism and racism as thinly veiled intellectualism that has gone on for DECADES
This what I came to associate with reddit.
This kind of very super shallow toxic intellectualism that consisted mostly of call-and-responses opinions play-acted in weird rituals really wore on me. Even the more organic conversations were more like people just slapping opinions at eachother.
Not that we’re immune to ANY of this. Our smaller scale and decentralisation sidesteps the issue a bit, though. For now anyway.
@gabrielesvelto "AI" fans: wow, the technology makes toothpicks all by itself! 😲 the technology:

... possibly checks for double-"*"/"_"s to emit as a bold-start/end depending on a flag, possibly does equivalent for double-"-", ditto for single "*"/"_", possibly checks for "![" in which case it scans ahead to the next "]" checking & if followed by "(" scans ahead to ")" emitting results as multiple tokens (image-alt-start, text, image-alt-end, & image-url), does similar for unadorned "[", upon newline emits any queued text & a newline-token before ending any headings clearing flags, ...
6/7
... & otherwise updates the properties tracking the current span of text.
The public API populates those structs, clears properties, emits any remaining tokens based on saved flags, convert token types to human-legible names, & most importantly abstracts those parsing routines!
The main one repeatedly calls (if a flag's set) that line-start parser followed by that inline parser, while a further abstraction also emits any remaining tokens after the end of the text.
7/7 Fin for today!
Mast so the sails stay up even when wind goes a bit unstable? Naaaah.

I dont think that emphasizing a community based on smugly pointing out the superiority of themselves over alternatives is the best way to counter that, though.
That community was not in any way a healthy community, due in large part to their status as a default community. It was less a way for people to commiserate and share philosophy and more a giant pissing contest to see who could shit on others the most.
I think the skeptic/movement atheist community shouldn’t be allowed to forget that the earliest MAGA adopters were from specific sects of their movement

Come on, Mastodon, there has to be at least one interesting post here… 😁
@metin Counter means within last week or something like that.
Can I be gay for somebody if I am already gay? Perhaps that is my default state in such instances. What if I am bisexual?
