The labels have the character's name followed by 受 (uke), which means being the receptive or passive partner, or in BL slang means the bottom. Most underrated organizational system ever by the way. Please show this to anyone who claims that "unwoke" Japan doesn't "shoehorn queerness into everything".

I'm personally all for letting people decide if they should vote, but it's entirely Biden's fault that people don't want to vote for him.

Last year, I discovered that I have something in common with Biden. No, I don't mean I should be executed for my crimes against humanity (although I'm sure some of you tankies will beg to differ); I discovered that we are both using CPAP to treat sleep apnea. I struggled with chronic sleep deprivation for around three years until I finally got diagnosed and started CPAP around 18 months ago. I want to try to avoid being ableist, but as someone who has personally experienced impaired memory and reduced neurological ability from untreated sleep apnea, I know full well what it can do.

I do not know the full details of Biden's treatment, but articles suggest that he only started CPAP last year despite being diagnosed in 2008. Maybe it's unfair to speculate about his personal health, but it seems like there are one of two possibilities.

1. Like roughly 50% of CPAP users, he struggled to adapt to it and quit within the first year, but had to give it another chance after his health inevitably deteriorated.
2. A CPAP was unnecessary at first, as he could manage his symptoms through undergoing surgery or using a dental device, but they progressed (as they generally do with age) to the point where he needed to start CPAP therapy.

In either case, he was probably sleep deprived for some time before his doctors noticed and advised him to start CPAP therapy. It can also often take at least six months to overcome sleep deprivation (it took more than 18 months in my case), and even longer to repair the damage it caused.

My sleep apnea is likely much worse than his, but I'm also half as old as him, and I would not describe my memory as fine. I never expect to remember important information unless I write it down immediately, and I sometimes struggle to remember the names of people I've worked with for several years. I've just had to accept that dealing with my poor memory is part of managing my symptoms. I don't think he deserves to be mocked, but I think he should accept that his memory is far from fine.

I'm 40 and therefore ancient in terms of internet years, but although I'm British (but one who was born to a Celt and an Southeast Asian born in a British colony, so don't judge me) I really don't remember how Ireland was viewed when I was younger. I didn't have much awareness of current events until I was at least 10, and the Good Friday agreement was signed when I was 15, so I always view the worst of the conflict as something that was before my time.

I know there was a whole stereotype about Irish terrorists, but was that ever used by politicians and/or media figures to prolong the conflict? Are there any verifiable examples of this such as articles or videos?

"Do white lives matter?" energy.

I’m sure you all know how the failure of world powers to act against Nazi Germany lead to the slaughter of millions, so if history has taught us anything, it’s that we should now all look away from the heinous crimes being committed against the Palestinians and pretend they aren’t happening.

Obviously I’m not thrilled about it, but how are we ever going to prevent another holocaust if not for apathy and indifference to human suffering? And if we somehow fail and there’s a totes legit second holocaust for realsies this time, I pinky-swear that the nations of the world will finally take decisive action and hold the perpetrator accountable. Sure, maybe they’ve been a teensy bit complicit so far, but it’ll be different next time, I promise you.

There’s no other choice. Stop making me out to be the bad guy. It’s just a fact of life that people will always be racist and want to wipe out other people. Now I would accept a white genocide if that was what the circumstances dictated, but the Israelis wanted to settle in a region of arabs, so maybe the Palestinians should just sit this one out and take one for the team.

Honestly, we have no other choice. It’s not as if there are any material conditions that lead to society-wide xenophobia. Seriously, there aren’t, so you can stop looking. I said stop looking! You’re just wasting your time, because there aren’t any. Oh my god! You’re reading theory right now, aren’t you!? I’ve just about had enough of you.

And that is why I am now seeking new employment opportunities after 10 years of service at the Foot Locker.

I'm from the UK (but born to one of the victims of its colonialism, so don't mock me, I'm destroying the country from within), and I've been living abroad the last 11 years.

Believe it or not, there is actually some decent British food. Treacle tart is one thing that I miss, and I've tried to make it a few times. Unfortunately some TERF just had to ruin it by making it the favorite dessert of the protagonist in her overrated fantasy series.

Thanks to her, I now have to scroll through reams of sites full of fanboy gushing that don't even have the decency to list out the ingredients in grams. Without fail, the top 5 results will always be like "Oh muh god, Harry Potter! Go Hermione. Ten points to Griffindor. Oh, I'm such a Hufflepuff. Anyway, here's the recipe in a system that requires a tool that isn't available in most of the fucking world, because I, like the only other people left in this fandom, am a narcissist who stayed just to see innocent people being harmed."

I like to sing eurodance classics, and most of them omit the rap verses. I've always been grateful that they do, because I'm scared it'll be cringe and sound like I have zero flow.
