I was born with one and it was partially corrected at birtb. I can’t stick my tongue out far, but I have none of the other issues you’ve listed (partly because I’m a woman married to a man).
I highly doubt you would regret having it done as long as you’re in a clean environment with a surgeon who knows what they are doing
Fair point
All right, fair. Maybe Taco Bell wasn’t the best test. I’ll keep that in mind for the next time
It was a year or two ago, I can’t recall. But probably something like Target
I know people say they there are studies, etc, but I agree with you. My husband and I both don’t like Taco Bell. There were zero searches for it, we never talked about it, etc. So we decided to test it. We started saying Taco Bell multiple times in different sentences.
Guess what suggested options popped up when we hit “T” into google or maps? Yup. Taco Bell
Less butthole
"Sexual Content Policy Update DEC 15, 2023← All Posts
1920x1080_header_ts_shield_ice.jpg
Author: Dan Clancy
On Wednesday, we updated our Sexual Content Policy. Our primary goal in making these updates was to make our guidelines easier to understand and enforce.
Part of this update included changes to how we treat fictionalized nudity. For years, through UserVoice and in conversations, we heard from artists that our content policies were limiting. In making this update, we were trying to be responsive to these requests and allow the thriving artist community on Twitch to utilize the human form in their art.
First, we want to make clear that some streamers, in response to this update, created content that was in violation of our new policy. We’ve worked quickly to remove that content and issue channel enforcements.
However, there also was a great deal of new content that was allowed under the updated policy. Much of the content created has been met with community concern. These are concerns we share. Upon reflection, we have decided that we went too far with this change. Digital depictions of nudity present a unique challenge–AI can be used to create realistic images, and it can be hard to distinguish between digital art and photography.
So, effective today, we are rolling back the artistic nudity changes. Moving forward, depictions of real or fictional nudity won’t be allowed on Twitch, regardless of the medium. This restriction does not apply to Mature-rated games. You can find emote-specific standards for nudity and sexual content in the Emote Guidelines. We aren’t making other changes to the updated Sexual Content Policy.
We are in the process of pushing out updates to our Community Guidelines that reflect this change. It will take a few days for both this blog and for the new Community Guidelines to be translated.
While I wish we would have predicted this outcome, part of our job is to make adjustments that serve the community. I apologize for the confusion that this update has caused."
What I want to read from Putin is: “I’m withdrawing my troops from Ukraine”
This never ceases to make me smile, no matter how many times it’s reposted
I’m certain that they didn’t mean to kill the three Jewish hostages. However, the fact that they went in guns blazing without a care to whether or not the people they were shooting were innocent or not… well, that’s sadly very telling
I’ve always been a native English speaker, but my first 11 years of education weren’t in the U.S. I also don’t have an issue with: their, there, and they’re.
Affect and effect were tough for me, though. I still have to think about it for a moment
And slightly off topic, I still can’t tell the difference between pansexual and bisexual. Each time I feel like I have a decent internal definition someone comes along to inform me that I’ve got it wrong
Idk. I recognize a lot of my beliefs and behaviours as cringe, but I think I’ve cringed so hard at them that I’m now on the other side of that. I look back at my ignorant, gullible, past-self with compassion and the understanding that I’m still likely holding on to incorrect beliefs (and that I’ll likely continue to grow through them) It’s partly why I tend to be so argumentative, I think. (How do you grow without challenge?)
I currently hold the belief of: Love yourself, it’ll help to generate more compassion for those around you
(Though I confess I still have many moments of wanting to call people idiots, and it takes a lot to realize that I, too, could be the idiot. It’s a process, ya know?)
Yeah, I’ve noticed Lemmy has started to be less tolerant of different ideas/opinions lately. Not a fan of that.
We need open discussions and disagreements, and being as civil as possible helps to facilitate that. Otherwise things devolve, some become afraid to voice their thoughts, and trolls thrive off of the attention.
It’s super important that we try to remember there is another person on the other side (even I fail at this at times, but we need to keep trying!)
I confess I didn’t read the article, nor do I know anything about this fellow…but in that picture he looks like Dutch Donald Trump
Yes, unless you’re the far right!
I think this one’s my favorite so far!
AI doc: “Please enter your problem” Patient: “Well, I feel depressed because I saw on Facebook that my x-girlfriend has a new guy” AI doc: “Interesting. I advise you to spend more time on social media. Have you checked her insta yet?”
FISHFACE FOR PRESIDENT!
Seriously!
Oh, you’ve tasked AI with managing banking? K. All bank funds are suddenly corrupted. Oh, you’ve tasked AI with managing lights at traffic intersections? K, they’re all green now. Oh, you’ve tasked AI with filtering 911 calls to dispachers? K, all real emergencies are on hold until disconnected
I could go on and on and on…
I turned off auto-correct because it changed "Mary"to “Mark.” Like… wtf!
Of course, now I’m being forced to type properly and learn to spell. Win situation for me, in reality, but it’s also super annoying
I would just like to point out that the Holocaust was not JUST Jews. Other people were persecuted as well (such as LGBTQ+ peeps)
