"The survey was conducted using KnowledgePanel, the largest and most well-established online probability-based panel that is representative of the adult U.S. population. Our recruitment process employs a scientifically developed addressed-based sampling methodology using the latest Delivery Sequence File of the USPS – a database with full coverage of all delivery points in the U.S. Households invited to join the panel are randomly selected from all available households in the U.S. Persons in the sampled households are invited to join and participate in the panel. Those selected who do not already have internet access are provided a tablet and internet connection at no cost to the panel member. Those who join the panel and who are selected to participate in a survey are sent a unique password-protected log-in used to complete surveys online. As a result of our recruitment and sampling methodologies, samples from KnowledgePanel cover all households regardless of their phone or internet status and findings can be reported with a margin of sampling error and projected to the general population."
And the fate of the entire country rests in their hands.
Internet moderation needs to be performed dispassionately. It's administration, not leadership. But still, it appeals to power-tripping, self important assholes who have no interest in curating a functional community but instead ensuring everyone thinks and acts exactly like they do. The larger lemmy gets, the more of these awful moderators make up the moderation team. There is no mechanism in place to prevent this. I don't even know how such sa mechanism would work, but as soon as one is figured out, the Internet will be a better place.
Final Fantasy hasn't been like that for a long long time. They make ARPGs now. Check out gameplay from ffxvi or the vii remake, it's high paced action.
Marriage is the intention of having a lifelong partnership. Romance is not necessary to love and support a partner, it's just what's most common. A fairy wedding sounds delightful.
Are you saying you and she would be legally married with witnesses and papers or you just want the ceremony and celebration without the paperwork? If the latter, be aware there might be grounds to make you common-law partners without your consent, I'd check those laws out.
Besides that, if you want her to be your beastie-partner-faux-wife, I'd still do a trial run of living together. Maybe even talk to a relationship counselor for tips to keep this sustainable. Any relationship that close, even platonic ones, take work and have conflict from time to time. You need all the same interpersonal strategies as any other spousal or life partnership arrangement. Living with someone and supporting eachother is still quite an intimate, complex affair, even without the sex and romance.
Kids don't want to learn in The Netherlands either, but they exit highschool being conversational in multiple secondary languages.
African wildlife live cams. Nautilus Live is on the off season, so I turned to the Namib Desert for my background watching. I just watched a Hyena piss in a watering hole to fuck with a jackal. An hour later a gemsbok shows up, sniffs the water, and runs away at full speed.

This is the greatest videogame video essay ever. 6 hours long for a 25 year old game we'll never play.
Or watch Strange New Worlds, a great modern series riffing on the old formulas. If you like it, go back and start with the earlier stuff.
In HD you can very clearly see where the hairpiece ends and Shatner's hair begins every time you see the back of his head.
