It's not, but if you actually need a rebuttal, let's go:

- insecure pose is related to its brethren of other insecure poses, such as the peace sign ✌️😉✌️, tongue sticking out😜, duck lips😙

What about this pose is in any way insecure? She is confidently giving the finger to those who don't respect consent.

- there is this weird lust for such poses

This is your own opinion and not substantiated by anything here as far as I can see.

- the brand clothing indicating commodity fetishism aka lust

There's nothing wrong with people liking brand-name clothes. You personally may have a beef with it but calling it 'lust' is not justified by anything in the image.

- the coffee indicating lack of self control and gluttony/lust aka addiction

Again with the 'lust'? Coffee is such a normal thing. There's nothing here to indicate she's addicted, or a glutton, or in any way out of control. You're reading an insane amount into this simple drawing.

- expectation for others to read your mind when speaking indirectly, vaguely, or with innuendo

It's not an expectation. She's spelling out exactly the ways in which people try to ignore a woman's lack of consent.

- closed-mindedness to the world of opportinity

Opportunity to what, have sex she doesn't want to have? Are you serious right now?

- the sublte implication of superiority

Substantiate this please, because again, there's nothing in the image supporting this claim.

- the callous disregard for the other person

You mean the person who's callously disregarding her by ignoring the very clear lack of consent? Because that's the type of person this image is aimed at.

- the lack of empathy

Same comment as above. Who exactly does she owe empathy?

- the excessive self-conciet and pride in oneself

Again, totally unsubstantiated in the image. She's allowed to be proud of herself just like anybody else, but there's nothing excessive here.

You've read a lot of nonsense into this image. Maybe have a think about why that is.

Only 2? I only got one, which was part of lunch. How many is normal?

And it was always "three Hail Marys and a Glory Be" and you're golden. What a weird ritual.

Not the dude in the Bible, because the things he's supposed to have done are impossible. So probably there was some dude that did or said some things and then got a bunch of folklore attached to him. A certain amount of the jesus story comes from contemporaneous myths - IIRC, a virgin birth was a common one.

Agreed, classic rock all the way!!

Pet unicorn, no doubt about it. I would name it Morgan in honor of one of my favorite childhood books.

Would you rather know what happens five years in the future, or be able to change something five years in the past?

I feel like there are a lot of teachers that have no business teaching.

Me too, I'm not a fan of sweet breakfasts.

Ooh that's a tough choice - I think usually I'd prefer the sunny summer day, although lately it's been edging toward fall here and I'm not complaining! It's nice to have my windows open and not run the AC.

Would you rather wear jeans all the time or dresses?

Savory usually, but I can't resist a combo - for me, honey roasted nuts are like the ideal snack food

Would you rather listen to classic rock or contemporary coffee shop music?

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 3 points 2 days ago (5 children)

Ooh incredibly rich, definitely. I'm an introvert so being supet popular would be hard!

If you had to pick a manual-labor profession, would you rather be a blacksmith or a carpenter?

I'd rather be a wonderful artist, I love color and I love being creative.

Would you rather a sweet or a savory breakfast?

 

Since the latest update, I've noticed that images aren't displaying properly in two ways:

  1. The thumbnails no longer display within the post body, I now have to click on them to view them
  2. Images in comments are cut off rather than sizing to fit the screen

The screenshot below demonstrates both issues.

 

Saw this in another community and it made me laugh!

 

Hi friends! I'm looking to buy a fragrance and am hoping you guys might have some suggestions.

I want something that screams "peach" without being powdery or overly floral. I'm hoping for something gourmand/lactic (but not overly sweet!), fruity, or lightly floral (wearable in the daytime), or to go in another direction completely, something peach with spice, an evening scent sort of like Angel Share Paradis by Kilian (but peach instead of raspberry).

I'm more interested in perfumes, less interested in body sprays, but will give anything a shot.

Things I've already tried include Phlur's Apricot Privée, Phlur's Peach Skin, and Ellis Brooklyn's Peaches. Out of these, I like Peaches the most, but it's kind of a simple scent. I'd like something a little more complex. I had high hopes for Peach Skin but the sandalwood is really overwhelming (it smells so powdery!). And Apricot Privée is more complex but also smells very powdery and although it's spicy, I feel like it's an old-fashioned kind of spicy, if that makes sense.

And if there's not a single fragrance that fits the bill, I could try layering Peaches with something else. Maybe with Angel Share, or with an amber?

 

I don't know where else to share this, but I'm so proud of myself so I've gotta post it somewhere. I've finally got my first unassisted pull-up! It wasn't a goal I was working super hard toward, but I've noticed a lot of new muscle definition in my back, probably because I do a lot of rows, especially bird-dog rows and renegade rows. So I tried a pull-up and I was able to do one pretty easily! Not bad for a middle-aged lady! Now I've got a goal to do three. :)

I have a Samsung Galaxy S21 and I just got the new OneUI update. Now when I watch media in Jerboa there's an annoying scrolling notification that appears:

How do I get rid of this?

Also how do I get rid of whatever this is in my edge tray?

Thanks in advance!

Edit: I figured out the first one, search settings for the Now Bar and disable whatever you don't want to see

Hey friends. I've recently realized that what I thought were freckles is actually melasma, and my dermatologist has prescribed me tretinoin for it. I have very pale skin, generally normal in the winter and a little oilier in the T-zone during the summer, but it can dry out really badly with things like AHA. From what I've heard, tret is pretty drying. My dermatologist recommended that I start with applying it only two nights a week, and using a pea-sized amount mixed into my moisturizer. I use the Tatcha Water Cream moisturizer, which is pretty light and has been great for me, but with tret I'm wondering if I'll need a heavier moisturizer. I'm also worried that my usual double-cleansing will worsen the dryness from tret. I double-cleanse with an oil balm to remove my mineral sunblock, then with the Tatcha Rice Wash to get rid of the sunblock & oil balm residue. But I'm thinking the rice wash might be irritating because it's got a (mild) physical exfoliant, so maybe I need to find something else for my second cleanse?

Does anyone have any experiences to share about dryness on tret, or just starting tret in general? Anything I should be aware of? I'm weirdly nervous about it!

Since the last release, I find that gifs won't play in Jerboa anymore. For example, this comment just appears as a static image for me, even when I click on it. Do you see the same behavior?

Edit: solved by user merde alors:

did you enable "auto play GIFs" in settings>look&feel ?

Then close and reopen the app and that should fix it.
