As someone who rough-houses with their cat: No, dude. No. This is just playtime, a lot of cats love that shit and know that playtime and claws don’t mix, so they don’t do it because even stupid cats aren’t often that dumb. You can also trim their claws normally, like you should be doing anyway.
My cat is fully obsessed with me, is currently asleep on my lap, and when playtime comes around will be basically asking me to do this. He will easily switch back to chill mode after, even if it’s me who decides we’re done, and will be back to normal for bedtime.
You’ve either got no experience with cats or have only interacted with cats you’ve thoroughly pissed off because you can’t read their very clear body language.
For sure, but it’s the rate at which the French use them which always blows me away. And I know I shouldn’t have to say this, and I know it will be ignored anyway, but yes obviously this isn’t every single French person.
I remember a specifically bad example from a person who was, if I remember correctly, introducing their website where they would speak in French and you could listen for practice. Great, sounds good. Except! I couldn’t follow them because they couldn’t pass three words, maximum, without a “uhh”, “beuhh”, or “eeeuhhh”. It was an extreme example, but I think about it all the time.
It all reeks of trying way too hard to hard to convince everyone how laid back they are but they’re some of the most stressed out people I know. I have to wonder if it’s the fact that I live in Montréal so we get a fair number of Parisien.nes here.
There is that, but her plagiarism was kinda close to Vanilla Ice saying that he didn’t sample Under Pressure. A little aggressive, especially for her inflated ego and billions of dollars.
Absolutely agree about the other part though. She didn’t need the money to make her a shitty person, that was all original.
Not only that, but Rowling didn’t even dream up the world by all accounts. Just a bunch of plagiarized shit and racist stereotypes that happened to be the one which got extra popular.
The French was probably too perfect. Shoulda been:
“Je prends uhhhh deeeeux…deux croissants”. 90% of the French people I know can barely get two words out without a “uhh” or “beuh”.
3·6 days agoThis is such a chaotic response. 11/10, no notes haha
It must be wild being the kind of person who reads about a piece of positive news like any renewable being widely adopted and then believes that it means that everyone is going all-in, 100% on it. Also hydro powers nearly all of Québec and in Ontario there are plenty of different sources of power but we still call it a “hydro bill”, not an “electricity bill”.
You’re like the people who hear about reducing cars in city downtowns and bring up rural farmers needing their trucks as if anyone is talking about that.
212·7 days agoHis biggest failures, as I’ve heard it, revolve around the fact that he only cares about making short-term profits and doesn’t understand human beings. Steve Jobs did a lot of telling him to go fuck himself back in the day, to the great benefit of kot only the company, but to the customers. Why he was put in as the next guy to lead the company is beyond me.
All to get to a job that is actually taking a hit by requiring employees to be there for more than 6hrs a day and to which you spend way too much time commuting. Not to mention that there’s a good chance we’re literally built to have varying sleep schedules, originally to watch for predators, so half the population is just getting completely fucked because the only people we consider valuable are those whose day starts earlier.
Opposite corners first, then the rest is easy. I do wish the standard would be for deeper mattresses, though.
Dry-aged beef has spoiled. The trick to it is that you need a fairly large piece, like a whole leg or side, and then you trim off all the bad stuff on the outside. More simply, they don’t butcher it then age it. If you go buy a piece of dry-aged beef it’s gunna act a lot like any other piece of meat but if it hadn’t been butchered you could just keep aging it beyond when this individual piece would have gone bad.
You haven’t really given any sources at all for that being the extent of their power, and you also seem to have very little understanding of the fact that a group picked out by the guy who commands the military is not easily ignored. You also talk about the Ayatollah like it’s a pope position yet he’s the guy who keeps showing up to foreign affairs stuff.
Even in your own, un-sourced description you look kinda dumb.

So…the very first page here talks about part of it but leaves out the Guardian Council thing and its influence.

The Reuters article shows more about the Guardian Council.
Since pretty much every single thing I’m finding is talking about it and showing real people and reporting on news about it, about you tell the class why you think it’s all fake?
That just helps her point to all those people and lets her go “if I’m so bad, then how come…”.
Do not do this. Make content that tells her to go fuck herself. Be representation for others so that they can see that JKR and her incredibly mediocre books are not welcome in a world that cares about others.
Yes, it sounds funny on the face of it, but it’s ultimately just a terrible, bad, no good idea.
Encouraged by who? I’m a straight white guy surrounded by plenty of woke people(dozens upon dozens) from all backgrounds and orientations, and even know a few who are pretty zealous who I’m not super close with because of that, and I’ve never seen behaviour like that except for one person who tried to weaponize it and who was called out by the community for it. I have never felt put down for being who I am, and in fact I am often surprised by how welcomed I am by all my friends, from regular gays to militant trans women and even an indigenous friend who leans a bit towards natural healing stuff(not my bag, but whatever).
Many of the people “alienated” by it have turned out to actually just be unwilling to ever make adjustments and who aren’t as good as they claim to be. A very famous example being Elon Musk, who claimed that “woke” is why he now supports one of the cruelest institutions around. I remember when I was that fork in the road and I realized that no one was actually against me, and even if they were it wouldn’t be an excuse to go against supporting “woke” stuff.
I’m not saying bad things didn’t happen to you, just that your narrow, anecdotal experience is not reflective of the vast majority of people.
Again, you were wronged by someone who even the vast majority of the left would be pissed at and so you don’t like “woke” now. Do you also hate democracy because the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is bad and has it in their name?
C’mon, dude. I’m sorry that happened to you but there’s zero logic in that stance.
Kinda weird to take personal offence from one person as an excuse to not participate in making things better.
Like, if a conservative’s idea of a progressive came up to me and started saying I was a predator and demanding that white people be eradicated I’d just say they’re being fuckin’ weird and continue supporting progressive ideas. On the other hand, there are also the people who say “the left made me feel bad and I can’t take any criticism so I’m going to vote for Trump”.
Like, how thin does your skin have to be?
I love the “unable to find a job” one. Like, IT’S BECAUSE OF FUCKING GAP! HIRE ME, IDIOT!
