Homographs are just cruel. As a native english speaker, it's like... bullying for someone trying to learn the language. Read vs. Read - evil.

Both give me shivers
Sounds like someones overdue for a re-watch of Alone in the Wilderness. Lol.
I could listen to Dick Proenneke's matter-of-fact narration for hours.
Don't get me wrong, I love honeybush but the honeybush that I've had has always been a very light flavour compared to rooibos. Like, with rooibos I feel like I'm having tea as opposed to honeybush essenced hot water
Depending on what you're looking for "girly" could fit.
Ex. If a macho man is a "manly man" (which I don't think is entirely accurate because I think the concept of machismo is much more complex than that), then a "girly girl" would kind of be the equivalent?
Alternately, "femme" can be used to mean kind of the same thing but more respectfully since "girly" has a rather childish connotation. "Ultra femme" or "High femme" can be used to describe someone that strives for or is the peak of feminity but then... defining what that means is a whole other thing that's probably just as complex as defining Macho/ Machismo.
Not sure if this helps but I wish you luck in your search for the word.
I swear to you that I believe the Holocaust happened.
I'm trying to say that one man, who was 18 years old, in 1943, living in Ukraine (which was part of the Soviet Union at the time), might have had limited options in what he did for a living.
And if he didn't want to his people to be a part of the Soviet Union then he could have ended up on a unit that was working against the Soviet Union. I'm not saying that was right or wrong. I'm just saying it's more complicated than "this guy was a Nazi" and the whole government of Canada is full of idiots.
I'm not arguing that the Holocaust didn't happen.
I just linked an article stating that this singular Ukranian man fought on a unit that was found to have committed no war crimes.
Apparently I'm having trouble with links. Lol.
I tried to link the article in my comment. I believe it was also linked on Canada earlier today.
This article kind of sucks.
Here is an article that paints a more nuanced picture and doesn't call every MP an idiot.
Not blaming you for posting, OP. Just wanted to offer a take with more depth than "Nazis bad" Everyone knows Nazis are bad. This situation is more complex than that.
I don't disbelieve you but I think a statement like this needs a source.
Are you the same person that's been arguing with your husband about Joe Rogan stuff?
Just as a fellow woman, I'm a bit worried for you because there are two possibilities in my mind for how he's become so convinced of these beliefs.
-
He's been indoctrinated into some right wing "beliefs" which are generally not grounded in fact and are instead grounded in "belief" which makes them very difficult to argue.
-
He's experiencing a bout of some kind of mental illness (Ie. Something with paranoia as a symptom, or a kind of OCD, which I say this as a partner of someone with OCD). Some beliefs can creep in and get stuck VERY FIRMLY and again, these are completely resistant to logic.
I realize that probably seems like a giant leap from "how do I prove soy isn't bad for you" but if you find what you're looking for here. Like, if you find all the sources for scientific articles and such that back up your completely reasonable argument at soy is indeed food, and he still cannot see your argument as valid, I think you might have a larger problem.
I HATE Lost Boy by Ruth G.
I don't know if I fully understand why but I'm pretty sure it's a lyrical issue. Like something about the rhyme scheme or flow of lines just gives me really intense "I'm in 4th grade and writing my first poem ever" vibes.
The music itself probably also bothers me but I don't know music theory well enough to pinpoint why. Musically does it also sound like someones very first attempt at song writing? Or does it sound better than that which then makes the terrible lyrics really stand out?
Yeah, this ones just random paragraphs. Nice try though.
Don't have any sources but it seems pretty likely that Canadian hate groups have similar sponsors to American ones so it's a little like planting the same seeds in different soil, it's not really a surprise when you get the same tomatoes.
I think you may have a fundamental misunderstanding of how eyes work /j
Yeah, within the next two weeks for sure. Lolol
Payroll admin so... if you hadn't specified that's it was just within my industry I think the whole world would come to a standstill by Friday. Lol.
Violet Evergarden could have been subbed for Grave of the Fireflies.
I raise you people who email screenshots of pictures they have saved in their gallery.
Like WTF are you doing?? SEND ME THE ACTUAL PICTURE! Why did you take a screenshot? That's a whole extra step!
Thank you! I'll give it a shot!
The last pride parade I attended was as an enthusiastic and supportive straight ally (lol).
It was a couple years ago, pre covid, and since then I've... noticed some things about myself that obviously led me here.
I came out to myself in February of this year after a same sex experience that left me with no more questions in my mind (holy fuck girls are soft) so I'm pretty new to this.
But I'm still very much closeted to my friends and family because I'm married (to a wonderful man) and I'm not really ready to have a conversation with people about how my relationships are organized (cause that same sex experience wasn't just a one off thing. It's a long distance... thing. Like, I love them).
So on the one hand, it shouldn't really matter if someone in my life finds out I'm Bi. The real part I'm closeted about is that I'm polyamorous but I'm not really at a place of "pride" with any of it.
My husband knows, obviously, and he's coming to the parade with me so if I just don't advertise my bisexuality then I'm safe and I'll basically be attending exactly the same way I attended before.
But I wanna paint a little bisexual coloured heart on my cheek.
And I want to do this properly, just for myself. Like, it feels very antithetical to ATTENDING PRIDE to do so in a way where I pretend I'm straight.
So advice? Support? Tell me about your first pride parade as a bisexual!
Also the chances of me running into someone I know are basically zero. I live in a massive city. My fear of the little pink, purple, blue heart is completely unreasonable. My brain is just really talented at finding things for me to feel bad about.
Not going to link an article since the party behind the DDoS attack may not be who they say they are (meaning their motivations are essentially unknown) but I figured it might still be worth posting a discussion thread, if only to see what people are going to be doing while AO3 is down.
