Yeah re-reading that line, I think you’re right that they intended “trans” to mean “masqueradeding as”.

I agree with the sentiment, but you’re right, it’s not cool to use “trans” for that purpose. Thanks for poking me to more carefully consider how the word was used here.

For what it’s worth, and maybe I’m naive, but I read that comment not about not meeting some criteria of what appears on a driver’s license… But instead rebuking the notion that JD has acted with the integrity required to achieve “manhood”.

English has really massacred the ability to clearly articulate concepts around biology, identifying as a boy or girl, and then having lived in such a way to have “ascended” to “manhood/womanhood”.

JD Vance is a boy if he says he’s a boy. Being a man isn’t so simple. I reject that he is a man.

I don’t even think the men dreaming of the events (for the specific reason of finding a romantic partner) are enthralled by the pageantry.

In media, the trope is that the women at these things have no agency. Basically whatever man shows up to ask them to dance they end up ending up betrothed to, even if they have the personality of a wet noodle or an angry little dog.

I think that’s what is so alluring to these guys. They long for a medium where their trash personalities aren’t a liability.

That would be amazing.

But since the conservative won with 82% of the vote, even it were a perfect split either would still handily trounce whoever the 18% rallied behind.

Like, this is why PP wants this riding. I’m pretty sure a literal mop bucket would still win the seat if they were the conservative candidate. I think he could drive into Hanna say “fuck Lanny fuck Nickelback and fuck you” and still easily win.

It’s not at all the same.

This would give the PPC one seat total, and deprive the CPC of their current leader.

Your analogy is actually much more similar to PP WINNING the seat. The Liberals being so happy to call a special election is BECAUSE they LIKE keeping PP, the guy they just beat the leader of the CPC. If the libs drag their feet to give challengers the space to make a play for CPC leadership, they’re rolling the dice. They’re choosing the devil they know and beat. Their bet is they think PP is a guy they can beat again.

Is there an animation of that? I don’t recall ever seeing that mechanic at play, but I’m a few years since my last playthrough.

Makes a good litmus test

I don’t see a technical reason why a client couldn’t log in to multiple remotes to pull and aggregate content through a single interface. No “central” server is required, so if this isn’t an existing feature, I don’t think implementing it breaks any kind of ideology goal on that.

I’ll need to take it for a test spin, specifically what the experience is through whatever app they’ve got to run through a tv.

My brother-in-law both share our libraries with a set of people who have accessibility concerns. The Plex interface on a tv blends our two libraries relatively easily for those people. We have the redundancy of the two servers.

For me it isn’t about what I can do, it’s what can the person who struggles the most with what we already have set up get going. I pretty desperately want to move to Jellyfin (already have the Plex pass, so just for ideological reasons) but I’m not going to leave any of my people behind in the process. This is why I’m so hyper fixated on the case of UX for people accessing through a TV app where someone has access to multiple shared libraries.

Ok, ok that’s solid.

Does it have “library sharing” so one wouldn’t have to login/logout to browse between my own media on my server and media a friend is sharing with me from their server?

Does jellyfin let you set up different accounts for remote users so they can keep track of where they are in a tv series (and not give them admin functions?)

It’s incredibly bizarre that that this is one of the very few cases where I think someone espousing a far right viewpoint could be argued to be passing Hobbes’ Veil of Ignorance.

He must be. He would easily end up in the mines given his present circumstances.

Assuming your financial decision making for a purchase of that magnitude isn’t at the “we need to make this decision together” threshold: do it.

He doesn’t HAVE to use it just because you bought/installed it.

Honestly, most provincial conservative parties DO NOT want a conservative federal government.

They have no material besides “liberals in Ottawa bad”. No boogeyman, no material.

Generally in favour of that notion.

But I also don’t think being able to communicate ideas visually should be strictly in the domain of people who can draw.

I can’t draw AND Ii don’t have anything worth saying so it isn’t really an issue for me, personally. I just slap impact font on a carefully selected meme template, the way God intended.

I imagine a mix of the already diminished size of extended family units, and the liability implications if it’s outside your own family unit.

You’re essentially just describing an unlicensed daycare if it’s not a family member, and those exist.

That’s the goal. Maybe I’m in an exceptional area, but I’m not aware of any parents who are effectively paying $10/day unless their income is low enough to trigger additional benefits.

Still HUGE improvement over the last few years though. I think we had an option for 18$/day if we packed our kid a lunch. Our daycare would feed them for an additional 3$/day. I think overall average care costs have practically halved in the last few years so even if it’s not perfectly universal and perfectly $10, it’s HELLA better. Strong improvement. Honestly a MAJOR factor in trying to figure out the feasibility of having more kids for us.

It’s a reference to a twitch emote thats making the same face as that one egg

Easy mistake to make. Also words can not describe my admiration and respect for someone who can leave a comment like this up with a humble edit.

I might double check your math if we split the cheque, but unlike 99% of the people on the internet, I already can tell that I would WANT to have a supper with you.
