Agreed.

It's his series. Konami is lucky their name is on the box.

I think it's been conflated with simply "having self-esteem". So many guys (and a few women), are just so meek and weird about flirting or even just having casual conversations with the opposite sex. Like they see themselves as a social burden, but they just have to approach and give weird compliments anyway.

Like, you've seen sorta fugly people with attractive partners, right? Or two not-so attractive people dating? Someone had to make a move, and those people had self-esteem / confidence.

Confidence isn't just reserved for the physically attractive. It's ok to value other aspects of yourself and derive your self-worth from that.

If you're bothering people who turned you down already, or you're too unaware to notice, then that's a different problem altogether. I've seen plenty of guys with zero confidence linger in a convo they thought was going somewhere.

You missed the best part of the quote.

Both people he's suing are ex-contestants on "The Apprentice".

So they're not ordering new text books (yet) they're just allowing teachers to bring it up, and answer questions.

Sounds like it will open the door for crackpot teachers, but it's not "being taught" in the school. Definitely a slippery-slope, hopefully not many teachers indulge.

Has it not mooned yet? Apes must be in shambles.

Those stats go back 35 years. He's maybe the only person that's been in office that long, of course he's going to accumulate the most.

I quit working in a factory setting a couple years ago. It was definitely unsettling seeing dozens of pipes running all through the facility, and a few are labeled "Asbestos-Free".

Out of state donations help out a lot of Democrats in red area too. The difference tends to be Republican candidates get mega-donors and corps from out of state, while Dems get lots of small donation from private citizens throughout the country.

The 2020 Senate races in Georgia, Kentucky and Texas come to mind. They had popular Dem candidates that were getting donations from all over because of the attention their races were getting.

You're mostly comparing legal and financial ramifications to self-identity. I trust a teenager more to tell me who they are than to pay back a car loan.

From the little research I've done, puberty-blockers don't have long-term effects and most kids aren't on them more than a few years. This is widely agreed upon in the medical community. There is non-biased research done on this for decades you can read up on.

Yes, being a teenager is weird and confusing. Even more so, if you feel like you live in the wrong body, I imagine. That's the exact reason puberty blockers are effective, by giving a teen a little more time to figure out their identity, without it being rushed or compounded by the effects of puberty.

This post is about pearl-clutchers, and policing yourself to avoid getting banned from a platform. He's not demanding people start cussing on the internet more.

The original creators of the show are still making Avatar content. I believe they have an animated movie coming out next year?

Anyway, they left the production of the Netflix series. I doubt they would hand over the rights to let Netflix create their own canon.
