Considering evolutionary time scales, this trait may have been a response to something large and dangerous that’s extinct now.
It was called the ‘Demon Core’ after all.
What a lunatic. Yeah, demons scratched him in his sleep – in the bed he was sharing with 4 dogs.
He and his compatriots have completely lost the plot. It would be funny if they didn’t have such a large and rabid following. Instead it’s sad and terrifying.
I really hope I’m wrong, but I fully expect at least one shooting incident at a polling place today. I’ve seen multiple posts by redcaps claiming they plan to go armed, and they seem to be spoiling for a confrontation. I really hope everyone can stay safe.
He’d have to go to the same polling place though, right? Seems unlikely the people he assaulted would be keen to let him back in.

Human waste products I can understand. But how many humans would you need to mulch to get enough blood for a building project? That’s one of the main fluids we usually want to stay inside our bodies.
The Red Matter series has impressed the hell outta me (photoreal graphics, great story, and especially the second one with puzzles and limited combat), Moss 1 & 2 (hoping for a 3), my dad and BIL like Walkabout Mini Golf so we play that as a family, Shadowgate (decent fantasy RPG), Tsuro (board game), Myst (pure nostalgia), In Death.
It does feel a bit lonely, but not any lonelier than normal for me because I gave up on multiplayer years ago (it wasn’t fun as a girl when voice chat became necessary).
Every time I’ve tried multiplayer on Quest, it’s been a daycare centre, so if you really like multiplayer games, you’ll probably not enjoy that. I wish games (like among us) would pair people with their own age group (or maybe they do and all of Quest is a daycare, who knows).
If you want to try playing again, pm me if you want my info. The newer games are much better than a few years ago.
e: oh, new game called I Am Cat that I’ve just started. It’s in early access and nothing visually impressive, has bugs, etc, but it has promise. You play as a cat.
That’s good to know, thanks, especially since I do buy Cottonelle for spot washing. I’ve never flushed them, but it’s nice to know they’re not obnoxious like the rest.
It’s not just the grease. These stories come up every few years (the recent major fatberg in London was what pushed me to get a bidet), and they’re caused by a combination of grease, paper, and ‘flushable’ wipes.
I’m not saying he wasn’t progressive for his time in the context of those stories, but progressive for his time still meant the utter suppression of women within the culture.
Women weren’t allowed to have opinions, conduct trade, or own property, because they were property themselves. eta: and Jesus didn’t explicitly say women should have those rights.
If you believe the bible is the infallible word of god, it shouldn’t be controversial that women are like livestock.
Now, you can rationalise progressive values by saying if Jesus was alive today, he wouldn’t have gone along with all that, but that’s just not what the bible actually says.
Can you name some that actually are?
Because everything I’ve read says they’re not. They may not damage your septic tank or internal home plumbing, but they cause problems in the city sewer, including greatly contributing to fatbergs.

If you look it up for yourself, you’ll find scores more. It’s an inconvenient truth, but this was big in the headlines after a huge fatberg caused major issues in London and it was deemed a major part of the problem was ‘flushable’ wipes.
e: a quote from the BBC: ‘None of the flushable wipes marketed as “flushable” in the UK actually passed their rigorous testing.’ – and the standards there have been higher than in Canada.
They couldn’t afford trump pardons, anyhow. The asking price was $2 million each.
