I might be slightly off the mark with my understanding so would appreciate if anyone can give better information, but afaik Jews never lived in the historical kingdoms of israel and Judea - YHWHism, the polytheistic predecessor religion that was just the ancient canaanite religion with a trendy new OC at the head, was practised there. The modern Jewish religion developed among the descendents of YHWHists who were kidnapped in the Babylonian exodus.

When I saw warmdüscher the singer definitely did a keybump mid set, even if he tried to hide it by turning his back to the audience. I don't know why he bothered, he was obviously really high from the moment he walked on in sunglasses and started talking about taking speed in the dressing room.

Thinking about it, I'll give some credit to Yard Act who did about half of their set before announcing they were going to do the encore early because the rest of the set fits together really well and they don't want the flow interrupted.

They had some solid banter, they're bouncy Irish hoods so they've got great craic, but it kept everything moving rather than letting things deflate between songs - telling the audience to form up pits for the real headbangers or cracking jokes about paying to watch their film (the official Kneecap stance on viewing their film is "steal it off dodgy box").

It's only anime if it comes from the anime region of japan, otherwise it's just a sparkling cartoon.

It's not hugely convenient without a VTT like Foundry, but properly codifying lying to the players is one of my favourite bits of PF2e. I encourage all my players to take Dubious Knowledge so I can lie to them even more.

My opinion is that the probability of life developing on another planet, advancing to interstellar travel, and being physically close enough to us to visit us during the last few million years is so implausibly tiny that anyone seriously asking about their relations with human beings can be safely dismissed as a complete rube.

Using an item you haven't identified is always a recipe for disaster. I have not once heard of a group using an unidentified item and finding out it was anything other than the worst possible thing to use in the situation.

Personally, I'd fight them.

Calling it now, counterpropaganda and gossip/el chisme are going to die off and leave slop as a pre-rule 8 dunk tank.

Changing the names is necessary but it should have just been new names that clearly communicate the same intent or content, like The Septic Tank or Barbara Pit. Counterprop isn't going to get much but effort posts about actual propaganda, because the tanks have never focused on specifically countering posts, just mocking them. Gossip sounds like it would either be a celebrity comm or another c/Main, and I'm definitely going to keep forgetting which comm it's replacing. They're bad names that make the intents of the comms unclear and won't have the intended effect on site culture, they'll just change which comm the posts are on.

I've definitely heard it used dismissively against women, but I think it's become less gendered due to it being used by parts of the gay community and their increased representation. I haven't encountered it really being used by or about cishet men though, so I wouldn't say it isn't still dismissive of femininity.

that is most convenient for the teachers

Nope, also extremely inconvenient to them. It's only actually convenient for a small selection of neurotypicals with ideal or near ideal home lives/parent involvement, while nearly every other kid benefits from basic adhd accomodations like fidget toys or being allowed to sit/lie wherever to do their work. We haven't made any significant progress on teaching since the victorian era.

Vocational training is great for people doing crime because it's their only option, but less so for people who already have jobs and commit crimes of neglect or laziness - the ones which are most likely to feel remorse for their actions, rather than justified in doing what they needed to survive or just being remorseful they were caught. Like I said, very few crimes it's actually appropriate for, and vocational training would usually be better, but I still think it has its place.

Honestly, at least in any country other than America which I don't trust to not fuck it up, it's a much better approach to prison as rehabilitation than most places allow - it allows them to physically demonstrate remorse for the crime by showing up for their sentence, while leaving them with a lot of individual freedom.

Like there's not really many crimes I think it's appropriate for - most of the crimes it would be applicable to shouldn't be crimes at all - but "send yourself to the naughty box" is pretty good for the current prison system.

The wiki page on the ascent is kind of hilarious with how it makes the scepticism seem completely racially motivated:

• Subsequent ascents corroborated the expedition report's descriptions of the Third Step and the terrain near the summit, and demonstrated the viability of ascending without oxygen
• Lawrence Wager concluded that the 25 May photos were taken above the Second Step by comparing them to photos from the 1933 and 1953 expeditions
• contemporary written accounts from the 1960 expedition "incorporate descriptions of topographical details of the final pyramid that could only have been obtained if the party had indeed reached the top."
• A study of the video determined that it had been taken above 8,700 m, demonstrating that the party had overcome the crux of the way to the summit

"there was a cliff they said was 3m tall but actually it's 8m tall"

Apparently my model doesn't play nice with 128gb and bigger cards, so I've resigned myself to a measly 64GB of space.

Oof, I wouldn't make use of that even if it was unpaid. Forcing you to trade to get all the mons is one of the pokemon company's biggest sins, alongside making the starters after Gen IV all look fucking goofy, and Whitney the gym leader in gsc.

Unless you're talking about some kind of doghouse for pokemon I don't know what a pokemon home is, so I'm pretty sure I'm safe on that front. Besides, why would I buy the mainline series when they're also selling classics like Garbage Gold, Silver Sterling, and Tohoumon HeartGold?
