My ceramicwere is from IKEA and they stopped making the exact kind. Over the years a few have broken here and there and in a big fan of matching plates and bowls (not because aesthetic but because of the autistic need for food things to be the same).
My roommates recently broke a plate (it happens) and offered to replace it but I can only find it on eBay in sets so it’s expensive. They’re at the thrift shop and just found the exact set.

I do not currently have any tracking devices that are on any Gotham vigilantes without their permission.
Permitted tracking devices are in the beacons which are only carried by consent, linked comms and the domino masks enabled for footage capture. These devices require granular tracking to function as intended.
I also request civilian clothes to have their own additional beacons, but this is elective.
Again. There are no tracking devices that are physically on your persons.

from what i can tell the mini-mes aren't admin controlled, they seem more like they have some kind of mob ai. havent been watching tina today (chronic foosh watcher) so idk if shes like playing more into the rp side of it but i doubt they'll be like super intrusive, i dont really think all is lost (even then i personally find i dont mind the eggs, obviously if the rp stuff isnt your cup of tea its whatever but to me they just feel like other players a lot of the time. but idk thats just where im at after also having been forced to adapt to this server over the months as a doozer, just trying to give some hope lol👍)
Yeah I mean I hope so as well but I think the eggs were also a lot more stiff in the beginning and I feel like there’s precedent for characters starting off as automated and then getting an admin to do rp stuff later. I don’t like the rp stuff especially because I felt like they would interrupt the flow of building (or socializing with other players!) To go towards the very structured tasks which could be frustrating I was watching foolish in the beginning and everyone would always joke an egg task that would take vegetta 30 min took foolish several hours because he would get sidetracked and that’s how Tina operates as well. I really enjoyed late nights where Tina was just hanging out with bad or building talking to chat I hope that still happens with a more structured (in my opinion forced) story beat

specifics - ii
youtube
album: ii
year: 2007
artist: specifics
summary and olive's take:
second album from montreal based rap group specifics (dj goser, mc golden boy, think twice), this album is a delight for the ears with richly textured sounds, effortlessly flowing, conscious lyrics and mellow vocals. specifics makes ample use of luscious jazz samples and expertly produced lo-fi beats that sound like they were made today - they were vastly ahead of their time and remain woefully underrated! if you like nujabes, mf doom, or jinsang, this album is for you!

So as someone who grew up in this culture, I see how you would characterize it this way, but I also think it's a subtle mischaracterization. It's problematic, but not for the exact reasons you think. It also may be older than you realize.
On some level, American society believes your body belongs to you. It's just that there is an extremely wrong idea about what constitutes harm.
Gay or trans stuff falls under "harm" that doesn't actually harm anyone but people genuinely believe it does.
On the other hand, things like being forced to hug people you're uncomfortable with or being forced to eat food you don't want to eat can deeply harm you, but people genuinely don't think it does. They might actually think they're socializing you in healthy ways.
These things are often best dismantled not by an appeal to some broad, general priniciple of bodily autonomy, but rather, by specific, personal anecdotes that SHOW the listener exactly how and why certain things hurt you and others don't. Speak from experience and speak in specifics, not generalities. Show, not tell.
The last point about "deserving" is perhaps more subtle and I would argue that, in contrast to the other points, in which the solution lies in specifics, I think this point is rooted in something much deeper than mere bodily autonomy.
It's rooted in the Western punitive mindset, a judgmental, moralizing mindset that is rooted in a mechanistic concept of causality, and an idea that bad outcomes can be blamed on an individual. It's strictly individualistic.
And it's really, really hard to get out of if you grew up in this culture, but you CAN get out of it.
And the most important thing to get others out of it, is to first get out of it yourself, and then you can read by example. In my experience the #1 thing that holds back from people getting out of this mindset is the fact that they're still in it themselves, on one level, so they come across as hypocritical, telling someone else not to do a thing that they themselves are still doing.
An example would be if I start judging or condemning another for a way in which they are unfairly judging or condemning someone. It's like...on a micro-level I am correct, but on a macro-level I am just as wrong as the other person.
It's hard to put this into words and I also drank three beers so maybe am not at my highest point of clarity, but this stuff is really important and I wish more people could get it because this culture sucks and I really want to replace it with something better.
Bodily autonomy is important, but I ultimately don't think it's the best point to focus on if we want to effect change. If we get people out of the punitive mindset, and then tell our personal stories of what harmed us and what didn't, people will come around to the concept of bodily autonomy of their own initiative. If they are still in the punitive mindset and we keep talking in broad generalities, they will resist the concept.
I am by no means an expert but it seems to me “your body does not belong to you” is a major theme of right wing authoritarianism and, interestingly, modern USAmerican thinking. This underpins so much from abortion to forcing kids to hug their relatives. Your body belongs to the state, or God, or your husband, or your boss, or your doctor. Everything from trans and gay liberation to forcing autistic people to look in your eyes to making cashiers stand for no reason. Your body does not belong to you, but taking care of your body is your responsibility and your responsibility alone, and if you fail in some way, you deserve the consequences.

Vulcan teen on Vulcan [tiktok] saying "I have just lost track of my father in the grocery store." The camera turns to show the viewers the grocery store in which almost every single older middle-aged man has a bowlcut and long robes. Camera turns back to show the teen's face which is expressionless and yet communicates all it needs to.

“…to me” is one of the most powerful disclaimers we have on here… is this character analysis accurate? debatable. but it’s real… to me.

wait do people read first person stories and think they're the ones in the story???
Saw people talking about not liking first person, which is fair, but their reasoning was like "I would not do that" and I don't understand that mindset.
First person stories are still about a character. A character making their own decisions. First person isn't about you???? At least I thought it wasn't. What am I missing? I've always seen first person as just a more in-depth look into a character's mind and stricter POV. Not as a reader stand-in.

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again
#yeehaw#1k#5k#10k#posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours?#also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that!#unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference#edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense#also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags#1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now#he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic#2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign#like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock#3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing#it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is#extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once#it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life#i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about#Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect#if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it#aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week
