my dog would just run from one end of the flat to the other, occasionally throwing himself to the floor and rub along it for some meters to jump up again and run wild again... ;_;

shrug, thats not the point really

uh, idk, you could just as well use the Intersex Inclusive Progress Pride Flag and make the rainbow symmetric... to me it doesnt look like a "queer symmetry flag" but maybe a neat intersex inclusive trans flag

but that's just like my opinion. also: have an 🧅

edit: :shrug:

nope.

dabbled in unity when arcadia was being actively developed, but i am glad i have never finished anything in it.

made a game in godot though, and i like gdscript a whole lot better than either clojure (slow to start-up in jvm, sometimes rancid errormsgs, but that was arcadias fault, not exactly clojure's) or c# (it's c#)

both of them actually...

i found the first mention of rome in that book and basically, speaking about societies that didnt write (like the celts and uh germanics) the authors cite another book by some jack goody saying something like (im translating a german book here citing an english author... oh well, good night. as we say in german:) regarding their gendernorms we have little more than observations from roman authors like tacitus, which often - partly due to ignorance and partly to make a political statement in rome - seemed to talk not about real people but ideal types. greek and roman authors who spoke about wars, wrote that women were allegedly present on battlefields, cheering on their men and caring for their wounded. In extreme cases, as plutarch wrote women too would wield axes or swords. but it is questionable as to how reliable these depictions are, or whether the authors wanted to point out how "barbaric" it was outside of the male dominated culture of the roman empire.

the authors of "the good book of human nature" then state "it is difficult to make a statement about how women fared in the script free europe." it then blames a disinterested and long time male dominated archeological field. apparently archeologists kept finding rich burial sites from iron age women in middle europe, but the scientists didnt question their roles in day to day goings. graves of rich women were apparently as lavish as their male counter parts, but even worse than ignorance, some graves were attributed wrongly to men, like the "Fuerstin von Vix" discovered in 1953, they thought she must have been a man, since such riches were unimaginable to have belonged to a woman. died 490 bce and some analysis showed she was female... while typing i realize some problem.... anyway. i think this could explain why i assumed the role of women was what i said... not much info and it was bad later, so why shouldnt it have been bad before there already?

i guess patriarchy was mostly monotheistic religion's fault

edit: clarifying last line, and some grammar in the middle

i still cant take it for what you say it is.

there was/is this dude (perhaps a journalist) who coined a question to ask oneself as a reader.. "who? says what? to whom? with what purpose? using what channel?"

something like that. and since being able to read/write wasnt as common as today, i can only read this as "to whoever wants to be a good citizen: beware" coming from a ruler, and pointedly not "how to be a happy human on earth <3"

but that is just me. and i only replied again because iheartneopets replied, but he basically says what you were saying... so i feel like you deserve my response more.

sorry if you were hoping lecturing me was over :P

the book concentrated a lot on the bible probably as that is the most likely thing a reader might know. me attacking aurelius like that might be ill advised, but seeing a man talking about which emotions are acceptable and which not, makes me itch

cant remember what this book said about pre constantine, as it was mostly concerned with how the patriarchy developed beginning about 8000years ago, so nonsurviving cultures arent that interesting, except to highlight that indeed we could have been equal all along, if not for the rise of monotheism and then christianity.

the book also highlights how the teachings of jesus were perverted by the church to suppress women from having a say in anything. not only that, it also changed how i see this no-nut bullshit. i used to see it as a silly practice some silly men would do. but now i see it as the continuation of demonizing sexuality. (granted, if you got a problem then you got a problem, but the solutionis to go seek help, not to maim a beautiful woman, thinking she's a demon (as was pretty common in the past, thanks to christianity)) and how religion is basically just politics moved into the clouds, and how monotheism fueled tyrants..

it is funny how it was all basically already there, in stories and films, but seeing it all connected hits hard

i'd also rather be with my family than at work, but yeah...

and i think this is exactly what marcus meant by "the complaining": suck it up, do your work. which is why i cant see this as "be mindful and chill" but only "shut up and be a man"/"boys dont cry"

it's toxic.

i do mourn a certain type of cereal though... but that's long gone

well, yes.

what this guy says is basically gaslighting emotional people.

also, he doesnt say "yo, if you have a bad day, just chill" he condones the angry and complaining. that is a call to discipline. from a roman emperor.

i dont understand how this could be seen as self help advice.

if you are angry, be. if you have things to complain on, do.

and if you see someone else being angry and or complaining, how about not labeling them anything? we are all angry from time to time. and complaining about unfairness is our first nature. not acting on your complaints wont get you anywhere, but you do stay productive. not acting on your anger will keep you a nice fellow, but do consider who you want to be a fellow with.

also, i didnt say sexism. because it isnt. it's just denying certain emotions due to them being inconvenient in a "civilized" society. emotions caused by unfair, but "civilized" actions and norms.

i mean, i dont know exactly what he had in mind when writing that, but, like, there are only so many things that concern an emperors mind.

in the mean time i checked which emperor i was thinking of, and apparently i was thinking of about 150 years later, when christianity began to take root there. which apparently is attributed to constantine, but actually it was the guy before him who stopped persecuting christians.

perhaps rome at aurelius' time was a wee bit more moderate, but i would not expect that to stay true farther away from the capital.

thank you for your time writing all this, it was very interesting.

perhaps i can interest you in the book that triggered my response in the first place? it tries to shine a light on what happened to drive men away from women, i.e. how the patriarchy came to be (probably) the english title is "the good book of human nature" ... the mind boggles as to why the author shies away from just calling it "the truth about eva" which would be the direct translation from german, i can only assume it's to not cause to big an upheaval among religious folks...

we used to be much more like bonobos actually... at least sexually.

and last time i checked we aren't predators, wrong teeth.

anyways, i can see that there could have been fights. but killing other humans in wars became a thing only much much later, when game wouldnt be so readily available, the first large settlements formed and already made some people leave them to find better luck elsewhere.

the objectification necessary to enslave other humans came pretty much along with it. after all, a dead enemy is just a thing. so a living enemy could also be just a thing...

i wasnt trying to romanticize the era of hunter gatherers, but while rome might have been quite moderate at that time, practically everyone else were already patriachial to a point where most women would be second class citizens with little economic freedom, or economically free but sworn to celibacy, and their profits would return to their fathers

a man talking about how men should behave in a society that only had room for women as breeding stock and only if they secured your throne.

you sound like a pleasure to be around.

there are no walmarts in this country and also: sugar is the true enemy

well, agriculture is a relatively fresh discovery. as hunter/gatherers we relied on one another, the concept of one human being having authority over another only developed when we "finally" had something to fight over: fertile land. game used to be divided freely prior to that

that is just privilege speaking about it's own privilege...

it's unbelievable how bad the patriarchial matrix we now live in has twisted human norms over the course of a couple thousand years

more like personal study object, the way he was impressed by how many questions it took for deckard to realize she is a replicant gave me creep vibes...

i had to admonish a couple of people from using it for shits and giggles.. it felt a bit off but i managed to salvage the situation with an explanation, which then felt neater because in the end both times we agreed ai needs less attention rather than more (i.e. dont play around with it, if you want to see it "in action"/need an example, there is already enough generated crap in the sink)

well, idk, family members might want to have a word with her?

but probably, somebody told her to get something and sadly she got there by the time the owner of the card died, and also sadly probably somebody was already fighting over the inheritence if any... im pulling all of this out of my butt btw, in case you cant tell by the probablies and idks and stuffs

:/ then it was probably just because it was the first time... it really hurts bad the first couple of times... it may help to go by hand for a bit and lighten up that forest with flat tipped tweezers? just ripping one hair out or a group of three or what ever you have ^^'' may be less painful than the constant buzz of the rollers... just use new and disinfected tweezers

ples ignore if i come off like idk... this has been just really fascinating to me and talking to people about this has been a fucking nightmare....and i have been craving to infodump on somebody... im sorry please forgive me. im really not trying to explain anything with any authority, but reading about this was kind of very low key mind blowing, more like "well of course..." :

........... so I have almost finished this book (1) about how misogyny became so normalized through history... and like the books' theory, based on archeological findings and studiyng various ancient texts, including the bible, so that theories starting point is before agriculture made us settle down, includes all the history up to when the romans okayed christianity into their statemodel and loads of other stuff that i started to write down in an editor until i realized i was trying to recap a book of 620 pages, 20 pages of references and 30 pages of additional literature.... im sorry i love this book in a way... and i hate it in a way... i can only recommend it

... so i already typed this and it is basically a deep dive into a recap and the starting point of the book kinda...

before agriculture made us settle down, we had to be very egalitarian in regards to gender roles, there didnt exist any societal expectations yet except that of the little group you belonged to, but that was exclusively of cooperative nature, eventually the early humans realized left behind seed would sprout vegetables, and those places would be more often frequented and eventually we would settle at our favourite spot and for the first time we would call something our own, property was invented. some settlements would develop to be matrilinear, others would be patrilinear, but since women had always been the ones tending to the plants and little animals, while the men had been hunting large game, it would be the women who would have to grind the seeds they harvested into flour, so due to this hard work and the already higher exertion due to child birth, women would die earlier than men by about 10 years or so, men wouldnt become older than 40 or something...

.... yeah hm

(1 "Die Wahrheit ueber Eva, Die Erfindung der Ungleichheit von Frauen und Männern" Carel van Shaik, Kai Michel) am on page 580 and i want to murder some specific men. they already are dead though

<3 im so sorry you fell for its song, good luck, did you cut the leg hair down to ~ 5mm prior to epilating? (thats around 0,19685 freedom units.... or about one fifth of an inch?)

not going to lie, it hurt a lot the first time... but everytime i redo my arms, it hurts less, though i have to also admit i miss the pain a little ^^'

i think those scars ought to be fine .. if in doubt, use tweezers near them instead, takes longer, hurts less, but eventually the regrowing hair will become thinner, a little, and then you can just use the epilator there too... i do it like moving the device into the hairs along the skin untill it hurts, then i pull back and lift off so it doesnt touch any more, repeat. also make sure the hair you epilate isnt to long, the longer it is the more likely it snaps, instead of being ripped out :3

heh, same here... originally planed to use it on my arms too but... it takes forever and doesnt do much so, a simple epilator is much more effective, hurts like a removed, even more than ipl, but at least the hair is gone. only sucks to have to rub my skin sore every now and then to avoid ingrown hair...

your interest in legs is really telling... one more question.... cake or death?

do you like bread?

unfulfilled dreams

xD probably just a sleeve though...
