Yup, thank you again. I'd gathered from the article that it was likely a sort of political consultation but even looking in a dictionary didn't exactly clear it up.

It really doesn't help that most people use /s not when they're being sarcastic but when they are mocking those with opposing views.

Unfortunately it's hard to employ such mockery in text as you just end up repeating the arguments you're trying to refute.

I'm a dumb American who has never seen the word surgeries used in this context. Can someone explain?

[-] Pronell@lemmy.world 5 points 23 hours ago

Maybe, but why interrupt our enemies when they're devouring each other / making a mistake?

Well, that looks fun.

I've never seen that one, but I liked the series with Donald Glover.

He was an asshole too. But it is easier to forget running water without the audible cue.

Yuuuup.

Fiend warlock player did not like learning how I used his minor backstory. (He actually loved it.)

He knew he needed to save a tree. He didn't know he was the one to burn it, nor that he did so because it was a source of power to his mother, who was a night hag.

So much fun.

He saved the tree and even managed to change his Patron, but is too scared to confront his mother again.

I lived with a deaf man for a few months and one thing I noticed is he would often forget to turn off the water in the kitchen.

He didn't watch TV at all and was not at all respectful when someone was watching or listening to something. Just constant interruptions.

Yes but no. It was Roy Cohn who taught him to never acknowledge he lost or was wrong.

Left to right and actually sorted oldest to youngest we have:

Bernie Sanders is eight years old.

Miles Morales is just over four.

Abed Nadir & Troy Barnes are two and a quarter.

Maryjane is just over a year and is a foster fail. I'm the one that insisted on the failure. My dad adopted Mongo from the same litter.

Maryjane was supposed to be a Peter Parker but my wonderful professional vet tech wife was wrong this time.

Somehow everyone gets along in our house. 5 cats, 2 labradors, 1 tortoise, almost zero fights.

I've been a fan of They Might Be Giants for most of my life and have always been surprised that people universally disagree with me on this.

Linnell's songs tend to be quirkier but also shallower. (State Songs is a good example here - there isnt a song for every state and theyre often abstract to the point of meaninglessness. I expected such a project to have more inspiration behind it.

I've always found Flansburgh's more melodic and thoughtful, slightly better composed, and with a superior singing voice.

Of course they're a great duo and they play off each other's strengths. I don't dislike Linnell at all, just the songs that he sings tend to not be my favorites.
