fishy

the theme is 15 years old this season, last season was appreciation!!!! revoke the tpe~!!! no appreciation allowed !!!

honestly couldn't write a better description of @solas if i tried

oh there's a new page

you can use our job pay to get doubles week but you can't claim welfare/pension if you do that

this reads like an infomercial

i was like hell yeah, beans

i thought the title was Start of S84, Shitty Drivers, Some Beans

quick note on this - audacity is a free and very easy to use audio editing app. pretty sure you can also record directly into anchor but not 100% sure on that since I've never done it great article berocka, this is going to be a super useful resource

DC DRAGONS PRESS CONFERENCE sorry for the month-long hiatus homies. we're back! Answer 3 for 1 TPE, Answer 6 for 2! 1. What's the best gift you've ever given or received? Who did you give it to/who gave it to you, and for what? 2. Tell me about a fictional character that you relate to. What do you like about them? How do you relate to them? Do you want to be more or less like them? 3. Describe a specific color without telling me what color it is. 4. What’s the funniest thing you did as a kid that your family still talks about? 5. If you were to choose a slogan for your life, what would the slogan be? Is that slogan from something else, or is it Original Content™? 6. The season finally started! Any predictions, thoughts, or hopes that you have (other than DC being amazing and having more fun than everyone else)? 7. If you were attending a show and tell, what would you take? What would you say about it? 8. This one is a bit of a different format. I'm going to write a sentence, then you're going to either copy/paste it or quote it with another sentence that starts with "and". Grab the sentences from the person before you so that, by the time the last person does this press conference, we have a small, weird story For example: I start with "There are birds living in my apartment building." Someone quotes and says, "There are birds living in my apartment building. And I think they're spying on me because i have never seen a bird that I trusted." Next person quotes and says "There are birds living in my apartment building. And I think they're spying on me because i have never seen a bird that I trusted. And I also saw a crocodile across the street the other day, which really weirded me out." You get the gist. Try to have enough of a response that the next person has something to work with. The more detail you add, the weird and funnier it can get. Here's our first sentence: When I was young, I used to spit on cars while I hid in the tree that I'd climbed.

I take no credit for the idea

Doing the same thing as last season and will figure it tf out at the end: for our defenders: $0.01 for each hit, $0.01 for each shot block for our forwards: $0.02 for each goal player with the most SB chooses

this take completely lacks the awareness of the critical importance for community in times of mourning and grieving. creating safe spaces for hard topics is a good, healthy, and vital thing. every single survey that's conducted in this league about why people stay shows that community plays a significant role. why does community only count when it's what you want? it is extremely valuable to have people from around the WORLD on this website for the huge variety of human experience it allows, and even more valuable because I've had a chance to develop personal relationships with many of them. i think it's foolish to believe that value doesn't transfer to difficult topics, and i see no reason why it shouldn't be leveraged. to say that it feels at all appropriate for me (or anyone else) to be expected to reach out to people individually and ask them to meet me where i am on something this monumental is obscene. people handle these kinds of things extremely differently l, and who's to say that someone would be able to give me the support i need and vice versa? the fact that people have thanked me for opening thread says enough. having a space for people to share their stories and connections with this issue and how they are seeing victimization as a result of the court's decision allows for collective healing and bonding. there is not a single ounce of me that regrets creating this thread.

how long do we have to peacefully protest while watching our country to continue to regress until we decide it's not fucking working

I am so fucking sick of being told that I should be tolerant of intolerance by hate sympathizers. No, I will not take pity on someone who believes that some people are undeserving of human rights. I'm BEYOND the point of being willing to be gentle with someone who goes onto a thread where people are fucking grieving to effectively say that this oppressive ass system is the way it should be. Miss me with the centrist bullshit. Civil rights movements throughout history are rarely characterized by peaceful protests & compromising on the justice they're fighting for. They're characterized by being unrelenting & DEMANDING the justice owed to the people.

huh?

the right to an abortion is a human right, not just a woman's right

hi vhl, i really want to talk about the overturning of roe v wade and gen chat is not the place for it. so here i am roe v wade was a case that legalized the right to abortion in the united states. the supreme court has overturned this ruling, which means that states are now allowed to ban abortions i ... don't even know how to describe what i'm feeling. i'm angry and really, really scared. the ruling effectively said that they're going to try to go after other rulings of similar import (e.g., legalizing same-sex marriages and relationships, contraceptives, etc.). as a queer person with a uterus it's so scary to watch as the people who are supposed to protecting me are actively stripping me of rights right now, and people are.. happy about it? i'm 23 years old, and i feel like there's no hope for me to gain any rights in this country, let alone even maintain them. it's horrifying i saw the ruling this morning and i had no idea what to do with myself. i can't call my parents, who are both anti-abortion and certainly not avid supporters same-sex marriages and relationships or contraceptives. my friends are at work, my partner on vacation, and i just felt so trapped. it's terrible so yeah, i'm opening up this space for other people to be pissed and scared

absolutely not

and so that i don't have to show up. thanks eno!

good article

I’m really excited that I remembered this Here’s a breakdown of how totals were calculated. Dividing the stats between forwards and defenders like I’d originally planned left me with the following (this is for regular season + playoffs, not counting any bots): Forwards Goals 109 $2.18 Defenders Shots Blocked 329 $3.29 Hits 380 $3.80 $9.27 I was a bit unsatisfied rounding $9.27 to $15, so I combined the forward + defender stats to get the following: Goals 184 $3.68 Shots Blocked 665 $6.65 Hits 1316 $13.16 $23.49 … and that felt much better. Taylor Mourning finished the regular season with 420 shots (nice), more than any other player even combining regular season + playoffs (yeah… all four games). That means that @scoop chose where this season’s donation went to. scoop decided on The Trevor Project. For those of you who aren’t familiar with The Trevor Project, here’s a description: Over the last two decades, The Trevor Project has become a world leader in LGBTQ youth suicide prevention, and is the country's only LGBTQ organization to operate—and innovate—at the intersections of LGBTQ youth mental health, suicidology, and crisis intervention. Today, we serve more than 200,000 LGBTQ youth annually through our 24/7, free, and confidential crisis services via phone, chat, and text, while our suicide prevention programs work to end suicide among LGBTQ youth by shaping a more inclusive and accepting world. Our suicide prevention programs provide a digital community for peer support for LGBTQ youth called TrevorSpace, lead impactful advocacy efforts to protect LGBTQ youth from local and national laws that aim to harm them, offer innovative education programs to increase awareness of the support LGBTQ youth need, and conduct a research program leading the charge to provide peer-reviewed data on the experience of LGBTQ youth today. I’m very happy that the first donation is going to this cause, especially since it’s Pride Month. With that, $23.49 have been donated (plus the processing fees): @Dom your turn!

sorry for bullying you into scouting but also thanks for drafting me in 73

N0HBDY: this is my appreciation post. N0HBDY: @ fishy i have more tpe than you.
