I actually do this as well because I’ve been told so much about guys looking at boobs when talking to women. I make extra effort to keep eye contact. So because of that I’ve been told “it’s intense.” That’s from people that know me so that is probably the polite version.

So this feature is matching with someone of the same gender only. That’s the impression this gives. So women with women, nonbinary to nonbinary. Ok. Why are men cut off if that’s the case? How many more lines of code could it possibly be to just implement it for everyone instead of specifically choosing to exclude people? It would be the exact same PR if it was made available to everyone. There’s zero reason this couldn’t just be implemented universally. In terms of this making things safer or more comfortable, couldn’t someone that is a slimeball just lie? The article says you have to choose your gender. What is actually stopping someone from misusing this?

That’s my understanding from my various rabbit hole dives into this stuff. The percue prepaid envelope mentioned I believe is some kind of thing where they are levying the charge of postage against the millions of dollars that they believe is in a secret account. So they are probably invoking some obscure unrelated regulations and saying that the postage is covered through that.

Even though it’s right in the post, I missed what the implication was supposed to be about calculating the number. You’re supposed to get 666, but they are really bad at math and think 6 * 11 is 666.

Hoopla is for library systems. We are rising up against public libraries now? I don’t understand that and Tubi being on this. They are both free.

Not sure which you are referring to, but they’ve both been around as creators on YouTube forever. They are both still actively making content. I’m not sure what memes you’re seeing, but maybe you’re just coming across communities with people that grew up watching this stuff more now. AVGN started in 2004 and Nostalgia Critic in 2007 so there’s a long history out there.

I don’t know what is actually going on, but I’m interested in the Olympic level giant wedge of cheese hugging competition.

The casting choices are really questionable here. Looks like the casting was done to bring in a generic movie going audience that watches movies based on the cast, but this was only going to succeed by appealing to the actual fan base. Jack Black and Kevin Hart don’t need to be in every movie. I’m surprised Chris Pratt isn’t in this honestly.

Is it just the Hennessy that is being pointed to as the stereotype? Because I’m sitting here trying to figure out if there’s a stereotype about chocolate cake as well.

If you’re trying to not exist in the eyes of the government, why use the systems that are in place by the government? Shouldn’t this person be hiding in a cargo hold to travel outside of the country? If you’re evading the government, you gotta go all in.
