I'm really into animation, so my favorite is The Greatest Living Show by Itoki Hana and Toby Fox. It's a rather recent one, but my second favorite is a classic : Love Is All by Roger Glover and Ronny James Dio.

Read the manual.

Pain can be efficient or counterproductive depending on the individual. The threat or pain is usually more efficient than the pain itself. Your "let's be pal" approach is not far from the KUBARK's recommendations, but it is not incompatible with coercitive methods: On the contrary several of these consist in putting the interrogatee in a state where the interrogator is perceived as a reassuring presence.

Context about the kubark manual on Wikipedia

Nah, mammals aren't reptiles. We're synapsids, which is a sister group to reptiles. Early synapsids lime dimetrodon looked and behaved like reptiles, but aren't really classifies as such.

Well, they're avialans, which are paravians, which are maniraptorans, which are coelurosaurs, which are tetanurans, which are theropods, which may be saurischians according to the most mainstream classification, or ornithoscelidae according to an alternate hypothesis, either way they're dinosaurs, which are avemetatarsalians, which are archosaurs, which are diapsids, which are #REPTILES.

Would be fun if David Revoy and pmjv had a crossover. Both artists use FOSS, are on the fediverse and have at least one story with a girl who's sword runs an OS. But one is on Mastodon and the other on Lemmy, will they ever meet?

Is this an update or a plugin?

Still a reptilian, birds are reptiles.

The original post is correct tho. As for the one claiming they were christians... More or less. Nubia was christian at one point, but much later than when those pyramids were built, in the 5th century. Meroe was no longer their capital and they were then called the kingdom of Makuria.

So, this'll ne today's "akchually" comment, but before I start I'd like to make two things clear :

  1. I'm a bit alcoholized (for good reasons) and I probably wouldn't be writing this otherwise.

  2. All the animals involved ~~ae~~ are awesome, I love ~~town~~ them(?) and want to share love and enthusiasm about them.

So, armadillos are xenarthrans and apparently zoologists don't know exactly how to classify them, there are different theories. Pretty much everyone agrees that ~~there~~ they are placental mammals, which makes them closer to us than possums are, but are ~~there~~ they closer to us or to elephants? Big question. Many answers. Xenarthrans also include sloths, and anteaters. They have weird vertebrae. That's there big thing. I don't know the details, but apparently no other mammals have vertebrae quite like theirs. And their metabolism is pretty slow too, by mammal standards. Anyways, they're beautiful. And you're beautiful too.

[Edit: I later corrected the typos but left them as evidence.

What visual evidence of wormholes? If I'm not mistaken, they're purely theoretical objects at this point.

I know we now know they went extinct 66 million years ago, and 64 millions is another date I've seen around, but how long how we known it was definitely way more than 40 millions ? I'm asking because it's the date given in the the song "walk the dinosaurs" by Was (Not Was), and I wondered why such a number. Would it have seed credible at the time, or was it just arbitrary?

It was so bad Ever on and on, I continue circling With nothing but my hate in a carousel of agony 'Til slowly I forget and my heart starts vanishing And suddenly I see that I can't break free I'm slipping through the cracks of a dark eternity With nothing but my pain and the paralyzing agony To tell me who I am, who I was, uncertainty Enveloping my mind 'til I can't break free and

Maybe it's a dream, maybe nothing else is real But it wouldn't mean a thing if I told you how I feel So I'm tired of all the pain, of the misery inside And I wish that I could live feeling nothing but the night You can tell me what to say, you can tell me where to go But I doubt that I would care, and my heart would never know If I make another move, there'll be no more turning back Because everything will change and it all will fade to black

I ascended for the second time ever, this time with freerunner. I had the seal shards and was aiming to get the "You made it too" achievement. I was surprised when I finished the game and didn't get it...

Then I remembered I let a thief get away on my way back up without paying attention to what he'd stolen...

Dude robbed me of my achievement.

I beat the last boss thrice, once with the warden and once with the battlemage. The first time I died on the way back up, the second, I was out of potions didn't feel confident, so I quit while I was ahead .

But with the monk and the assassin's blade, I made it! This combo is great, especially since the last upgrade, which gave us the [ teleports behind you, unsheathes blade,"Nothing personal, kiddo" ] attack. This really felt fun to play!

Killing someone doesn't change whether or not they die, only when.

The only thing that determines whether or not someone will die is whether or not they were born. Therefore, the only cause of death is birth.

The only case in which murder changes the amount of people who will die is if a person who would've otherwise had children is killed. By preventing birth it prevents death. In other words, murder can only decrease the amount of people who will die or keep it the same, but never increase it.

En réponse aux récentes émeutes, le réseau social Taktouk sera interdit dans les territoires Français de Kepler 452-b, afin d'arrêter l'endoctrinement séparatiste des jeunes franco-keplerois par des agents perturbateurs de Luyten b. Merci de ne pas chercher d'autres médias en ligne donnant des points de vue keplerois sur les évènements car ils sont tous infectés par la propagande luytenite. À la place, contentez-vous d'écouter les médias qui donnent uniquement la parole aux terriens et exstellarisés.
