When I had a gallstone induced pancreatitis they tried to tell me this is what I had. Luckly they still ran some blood work and got me scheduled for emergency surgery.
It was pretty annoying having the doctor trying to blame my severe pain on cannabis use though :/
100% on everything except including sonic adventure 2 in your list. The chao garden was so great in that one i still go back and play it now and then. And the music to the intro stage is a straight up classic lol
I think this photo in particular got alot of backlash because people think she’s exaggerating her features to look more Asian. Its not super noticeable, but I think people were sensitive to it because ariana grande has a history of role playing as ethnicities she is not a part of. For example her brown face era when she would often use a blaccent and tanned excessively.
Heres a link to a more in depth reddit discussion about her and her shifting presentation: https://www.reddit.com/r/popheads/comments/ahdxyc/can_we_discuss_arianas_skin_tone_and_the/
Also a YouTube video of her very cringe use of AAVE: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eLOF7Qaklsw
Super cute! I bet she’s going to love it :)
I agree with all your predictions to my questions lol.
Though i don’t think rednote will actually take the place of tiktok, I think that’s mostly a protest migration & something else will take the top spot – if tiktok actually stays banned. I do think there’s a chance trump will choose not to enforce the ban in a meaningful way because he knows it will rally quite a few young and nieve voters into his camp (plus he’d probably get a hefty payoff).
Same! I think it is nice to have something developing that isn’t as overwhelmingly frightening as lots of the things in the works right now. Like this is high stakes and says alot about corruption in America, but like at least it’s not something that could potentially put me or my loved ones in harms way.
It’s going to be so interesting seeing how all of this plays out. Will meta succeed in reclaiming their market share? Will a new app take the throne? Will congress just keep banning any app that is too popular and not under the american oligarchys control? Will trump somehow leverage this into him being the one to save tiktok? Will loops UI ever be good enough to compete? Only time will tell.
What a strange timeline we live in lol
I’m so sorry you went through such a terrible schooling environment. I work with neurodivergent kids and its so sad to see and hear about some of the ‘methods’ people think are appropriate. It’s truely heartbreaking knowing it’s not just you but an entire school of people who were systemically abused and further disenfranchised.
I hope you are able to find a way to heal and move forward in your life, i know how sticky trauma can be.
Edit to add: sorry to comment on such an old post lol, i just realized this tread is like a month old
Super interesting hearing about the perspective of the artist :) thanks for sharing & good luck with your book launch!
Exciting! I like the final cover design you went with :)
Also it’s part of a series? Super cool. Do they stand alone or should I read murder in the tool library first?
Okay cool, i appriciate the recs :) its kind of fun knowing there’s so much content to go through & such a huge base of fans
Lol okay that makes sense. Maybe I’ll try jumping around a little more instead of powering through enterprise. Any recs on which to start with?
I did really like it :) the first 2 seasons were great, & i thought the 3rd was a bit overly serious but still enjoyable.
I had never watched startreck and i loved lower decks. I did know enough to get some of the basic references, but im sure some went over my head.
In all i think LD was a good starting point for me. I enjoyed the humor and how it didn’t take itself too seriously.
I’ve since tried another series (enterprise since it’s the first chronologically) and its fine though i do wish it was a bit more fun. I’m hoping I’ll enjoy some of the other iterations a bit more, and am looking forward to rewatching lower decks once I get back to where it’s at in the chronology.
Good find, thanks for sharing :)
Lol LG always has the worst emotes
They can happen to anyone. Some hypothesis why they happen include: uv damage to skin, hormonal imbalences, malnourishment, and genetic factors.
I once had one on my shoulder and it really weirded me out lol
It’s locked so I would have to verify it in order to do any kind of resetting passwords and stuff. Which requires uploading photo id and a video of my face. I don’t really want to do all that, so I’m hoping that it being locked is enough to keep it from being used by hackers.
I honestly just stopped using it so long ago & hadn’t even thought about the account until my sister told me it got hacked. I don’t care about having access to it, I just want it to be effectively useless lol
No need to apologize, I love seeing all the cool concoctions you’ve been brewing :)
Was the citation for having it up too long in the spring? You could add some bunny ears and a basket to make it spring acceptable. Or some hearts for valentines day.
There’s one in my neighborhood that’s up year round & they have tons of outfits for him. My favorite is his 4th of July outfit.
