61·2 months agoIdk if it’s fixed, persay, but I’ve finally realized how much me overthinking things was sabotaging my life, so I’m trying to take actions to fix it.
1·3 months ago[The hats] are all made in China…
Do you have a source for that? From what I’ve been able to find on the official [1] Trump store, they all stated that they are made in America [2].

1·3 months ago[…]using someone’s preferred pronouns doesn’t harm anyone.[…]
Thank you for clarifying.
When I see things like this, the following quote comes to my mind:
Rationality is not a character trait, it’s a process. If you fool yourself into believing that you’re rational by default, you open yourself up to the most irrational thinking. [1]

[…] the study you mentioned […]
What study are you referring to?
The other reply has it right, but I wanted to reply to confirm.
“Pronouns” in this context almost always means “preferred pronouns” especially wrt people who have preferred pronouns that differ from those assigned at birth. […]
I still don’t really follow. Are you arguing that the usage of one’s preferred pronouns doesn’t harm the user? Or are you arguing that the misuse of one’s pronouns causes them no harm?
Enlightening /s 😜
I am so confused.
Feelin the Bern?
What are you referring to?
2·4 months agoIIRC, I did try that, but it caused my controller to cease functioning at all. Take that statement with a grain of salt though — I’d need to test again to verify.
I’m currently waiting for them to release a patch for it; my controller is a little fucked: The controller vibration seems to have stopped working. Also, it bugs out for me if I disconnect the controller when the game is running and reconnect: some of the buttons stop working.
UPDATE (2025-09-05T06:54Z): It turns out that the lack of controller rumble is fixable by forcing the use of Proton instead of running the native build [1].

In B.C.'s defense, imo, most of the land to its North is either too mountainous [1][2.1] or has too harsh a climate [2.2] to be realistically inhabitable. I think it’s also worth noting that 15.4% of B.C.'s lands are protected [3].

Ten mountain ranges push west from the Canadian Rockies in the east to the Coast Mountains and the Vancouver Island Ranges in the west, and ancient temperate rainforests hug the coast. In between are rolling grasslands, lush valleys, tens of thousands of lakes, glacier-fed rivers, and even semi-arid desert. Mountains cover 75% of the province.

How so? It wasn’t my intent to misrepresent your words. That being said, I do apologize if I’ve accidentally (and potentially carelessly) misinterpreted what you said. I’ll gladly fix my comment if you help me understand where my interpretation went wrong 😊
[…] Pronouns are a thing that harms nobody […]
This feels like a hasty generalization. For example, if one is experiencing gender dysphoria, we could assume that misgendering them with their undesired pronouns would cause them psychological distress [1] — ie harm.

Gender dysphoria (GD) is the distress a person experiences due to inconsistency between their gender identity—their personal sense of their own gender—and their sex assigned at birth.

I honestly sort of just sit on the toilet like this normally (not on a public toilet). It’s comfortable for me to sort of lean all the way forward and hug my legs while I’m sitting there.
