This isn't about forcing people to disclose their sexuality. "Why does he have to be gay?" Is almost always an effort to force people not to disclose their sexuality, but it's only ever used when the sexuality being disclosed is non-straight. You have never seen and will never see any reaction at all to a straight cis male character simply using the phrase "my wife" but a cis female character doing exactly the same will elicit a backlash. They'll dress it up as being against unnecessary sexualization, but the only sexualization that's ever unnecessary is queer sexualization. Straight sexualization is never a problem.

I still only have ever heard "Tim shot Eric dead." I've never seen it any other way except in this headlines.

I'd love to see an example of "I shot dead him". I'm not trying to be defensive, I'd really enjoy seeing it. Dialects fascinate me.

I'd love to know what "recently linked to a firearms incident" actually means, especially given that it seems to have been flagged by an automated system and that "firearms incident" was seen as justification to ram a car off the road and then shoot the occupant in the back before any actual threat was verified.

It's only a stupid judicial precedent if you assume the police are there to enforce the law and help people.

Okay but no one says "shot dead black man". It would be "shot black man dead".

I always thought of it like sending my kid to college. Doubly so because the money I got from selling my '72 MGB sent me to college.

My whole family was into vintage British roadsters. If you're willing to work a bit and to flip them after you've had your fun, all but the first one pay for themselves.

Seconding this. I don't do psychedelics anymore but Uncle Ben tek has grown me plenty of oysters and is currently working some lions mane. The technique is more or less the same and I learned from people who were focused on growing cubensis.

Its something the fortunate among us get to do. There's only one way to avoid it.
