Michelle Obama has already been co-POTUS and she is SO over it. I can't imagine just how much she is rolling her eyes right now.

Over in an announcement thread some of them said it was because Space Whiner's design edicts like making replying harder and removing visible like counts would undermine how the community likes to operate.

Sorry man, but as a LGBTQA+ person, one third of an elected government being crypto-facist is no kind of W for me. I am glad they didn't win, but the right wing, the people trying to make DEI a swear-word, has not been "rebuked" or "swept away" in Germany, France, or even Britain.

It predates Sunak. They spent tens of millions prepping for it and it kept getting struck down.

Didn't he write an expletive-laden email that he did it himself once the community and Andrew fell out, it was called git, and now you will all use it? I think that counts as the origin story.

I will say only this: Walter Mondale fucking _crushed_ Ronald Reagan in their first debate. Reagan looked old, lost and plausibly senile. As everyone knows, Mondale rode from there to victory as a two-term president.

In FEUD S1, Susan Sarandon made the correct creative choice to UNDERplay how Bette Davis went through life, because had she been accurate, the performance would have been accused of caricature. Jessica Lange did a marvelous characterization, but it was not of Joan Crawford. Not even close.

I honestly think my quiet-courtyard-view flat and only me are too boring for him; I feel he needs more stimuli. I am about to ask the adoption network to put me on the list to foster young kittens for adoption. Let's see how he does as a Rotation Daddy.

And when I find him the right family / roommates, he will continue to be so, though now he also needs daily eye-drops, his adoption is even less likely. This may be a reverse foster-fail.

Truly. He was given up by a Polish family because he can't fly due to his heart defect and they got the opportunity to work in the US. I'd hate to think that besides missing him, they feel they did him deeply wrong. They didn't. They found the right network and he's a happy cat.

Whut? Srsly, whut? As a foster cat parent I'll tell everyone that rehoming to the right home is the opposite of cruel. Life changes. Lives change. Cats change. The whole species tree did not evolve in amber, they evolved in habitats that change continuously. Your cat is happy. You did right.

Been on the table for 8 years with PrEP. But like wiping COVID, (could be done in a month) the effort to do so is not and will not be there. A gay black man in the American South still has an enormous lifetime chance of converting cus he did not get access to a now cheap pill, not a 40K$ injection.

It would be an exaggeration to say that Diana, Princess of Wales single-handedly changed the conversation about HIV. But not very large one. It was an utterly different media environment, but she was absolutely on a tier of celebrity that no longer exists in today.

"seemed" It became an extreme example of Market Forces Choosing An Untoppable Winner. Also big on amplifying generalist voices more than specialist posters in specialist threads. Gems could be uncovered in threads because of it's small size: 2 upvotes from comment excavators could still matter.

Huh? I would think the surface mattered more: if it's Corian or porcelain or foil gloss, nothing will ever show after wiping down. No, here's what's really dumb: I made an all-black kitchen. I *adore* it, but I can see every fingerprint I leave. Even if it all wipes off easily.

Please do not take your shoes off when you come into my home. I may have one or more cats at any time whose toilet is a box and they track. Besides, you took your time to choose your shoes. You must like them. It's OK to waer them around me in my home.

Enormous progress. Knowing Gilead they'll charge $12K wholesale per shot, though, and $490 for individuals with a coupon.

What I only realized recently and make explicit now is that even that specific hair conversation wasn't actually about my hair. I get now that none of the hair conversations were ever about my hair. They were about her fears for me being seen as I was.

My mom asked 30 years ago if I shouldn't go natural hair color to find a job. My dad immediately answered that if they didn't hire me for having dyed hair, I shouldn't work there. We all knew but never said it was all code for being clockably gay.
