The good news is even if it bombs the whole franchise will see renewed interest. Whether as a last ditch effort to save the series or to capitalize on the momentum this release will be our best chance to see Dragon Age: Origins & Awakening remaster or remake.

It was meant to be a triple pun on meow, Muenster cheese and Herman Munster from the classic American TV show The Munsters. My partner thought it was too many puns for one name to handle

Then you won’t be sorry to learn that we zeroed in on cheese names almost immediately and that Herman Meownster was seriously considered for him. Ultimately Colby Jack won out but I often wonder what if…

Well Ito sounds absolutely precious so I doubt anyone could resist his wiles. It’s so bad in our home that we started a rule that cats must do something other than be cute to get treats or catnip. Treats for tricks we call it, so if they’re good for getting claws trimmed or if they stand on their hind legs for us and things of that nature.

Rowena is not food motivated at all, until recently we couldn’t get her to accept treats. She will also let you know she’s had enough by walking away, she eats way less treats than you think would be enough to satiate. On the other hand she’s crazy about catnip, she will employ the glare if she doesn’t think you’ve given her enough.

Colby Jack is crazy food motivated. We’ve taught him to spin in place for wet food and are working on doing it by command. He will also lead you to the treats. He likes to plop right in front of you and show belly, then when you reach down to pet him he gets up and walks towards the treat cupboard.

I’m sure you could get cats to do all sorts of things with a little patience and a heckin’ lot of catnip and treats.

I absolutely believe that cats understand more than what they let on.

My parents have two cats, Odin and Honey. Odin is a senior cat now but he’s always been sweet as pie. His default position when someone shows up to the home is that they have come for him and must pay tribute to his belly. Honey is pretty typical, if she smells something funny in the air she’s gone before the dust settles.

So one day I come over to my parent’s house to mind the place while they are away and after successfully tithing Odin’s belly I start to look for a place to set my belongings. Off-hand I remark to the cat that I haven’t seen Honey in a while and he should go get her. Odin leaves and I don’t think much of it, kitty shenanigans or whatever they do. I finish putting away my things and I see Honey trotting down the hall, then I hear her yelp because Odin is hot on her heels nipping at her legs.

You believe what you want to about but I know what I do.

How seriously do you think black-face was considered? Do you think it was the optics or logistics that stymied that thought?

Body piercings and tattoos also H O T

Lot of words just to say that once the advertisers move in on a centralized platform its value is shot. A huge part of the reason I abandoned the last platform I was using and sought a federated alternative.

Mm-mm bears and otters. Delish.

Hot. Also depends on the body shape, it’s like a welcome sign down to a good time if he’s cut nice. A happy trail (hair that leads from the bellybutton to navel pubic region.) on a dad bod also fits the aesthetic.

They’ve had the past 160 years to fill in some boring ass jobs to do that, the lure of money finally made them do it. My worldview doesn’t entertain the illusion that it truly matters whether you’re black, brown, yellow or white; only if you’ve got enough green to do whatever you want. So I’m going to have to disagree that this is a key piece of information.

The motion says that if approved, private donations would be used for the restoration of the school names and not by “the school system or government tax funds, though the SCPS will oversee disbursements relating to restoration costs,” according to [Thursday’s meeting agenda.]

This is all you need to know. Just need a little lubricant and the racist wheel keeps on turning.

I agree with you on many things but Speedy does not strengthen your argument. Regardless of your feelings on his portrayal of Mexican culture he has been wholly embraced and brought back to the air from cancellation by the same people Speedy purportedly denigrates.

First they come for your lawn, then they take your jobs and before you know it they’re turning your boys into girls to destroy the white whatever the small minded bigot in question thinks is the superior race.

The sad irony is I’m being sarcastic but this is the core belief for way too many people out there.

edit: on further reflection of my choice of words I concluded that this is not a white vs black or brown problem, as nationalism and religious nationalism specifically, are not exclusive to delusions of race supremacy in the western world.

Just want to be mad at something I guess.

Common sense is way too much for people. I too think it’s likely for someone to have placed it incorrectly so that a glance they would know if they had already accessed what was inside.

Not saying this won’t be incredibly lucrative once the tax dollars start rolling in but punishment can only make so much money. Give someone a thousand years exciting experience in 8 hours and people will gladly sell their remaining 16 for it.

The beans were great. As incoherent as they got it felt like someone was trying to post content so they got my upvotes. It can get pretty dead around here and I was glad for the change of pace. For a while there was nothing but AI prompt Sailor Moon art that was pretty entertaining too

What absolutely gobsmacking value must an unaltered human being possess that tremendous amounts of resources are allocated all over the world to stop people from changing who or what they are?

It’s your body you should be able to choose what to do with it. If in 30 or 40 years we come to find out that it causes irreparable damage and shortened lifespan. It’s earned. If that time until an untimely death is the best life lived then that was well earned too. I’m willing to bet it will be worth it to someone who so desires it. But it should be every individuals choice to do so, and do so freely.

This problem will only continue to compound as medical technology advances. People changing gender identity or their sex is only the tip of the iceberg, given the chance someone out there will try change something about themselves that asks the question of whether or not they are still human. Maybe not in my lifetime but someone born today might have to face such a problem. Based on the lessons we will hand down, well you can plainly see about how that is likely to go down.

We already know who cares so much that people conform to gender norms, are deprived access to reproductive healthcare and autonomy, and also forced to do so in abject poverty. The burning question is why? What ends justify these means?

Seriously, someone make it make sense. What math do I need to learn to be able to understand why you are not able to do as you please with your own life and body? How does anyone else still have a say what is or isn’t in your pants and how is it to their benefit?

It’s an irony then for how much value is placed on genitalia that the rest of the person is only worth at most whatever minimum wage is the standard in your area or occupation.
