Basically a very warm and fragrant but not overpowering oakmoss with some earthy and slightly spicy notes. Works really well on top of unscented moisturizer.
I've been a regular user of Lvnea, based out of Montreal, for many years. Forêt Dormante is a favorite of mine.
Not only is it awful to see this mass-disabiling event continue, but it's also remarkable that so-called public intellectuals are still minimizing the evolving threat of SARS-CoV2, as if they refuse to believe it's harmful because their identity is too important for their brain to be weakened by it.
Long Covid Is Real — And It’s Changing an Entire Generation

If you don’t see the link between ICE and the IDF, you haven’t been paying attention. We are being asked to accept a world where whole communities are made disposable and marked for disappearance. If we accept that for anyone, no one is safe anywhere.
Tried three different times and got in this order:

The Final Girl
The Girl with Big Titties
The One Nobody Likes

So... I guess I'm an extra who shows up in a sequel to save the main characters, fails, but still defeats the antagonist? That could work.

Maybe that's where I'm sensing the nihilism of some people is coming from, like they're caught in both the eternal moment of an unchanging present that can only produce an idealized version of what yesterday had the potential to do, and a future that bends all imagined progress backwards in time.
I mean, if you imagine a past that feels better than now despite its actual toll on so many others then, isn't there a cerain level of irony to its emotional impact? So, can't nostalgia also produce the same feelings that a meme does, because they both depend on the decontextualization of memories?
Thinking more about the overlap of nostalgia and meme culure, maybe the old glorification trick isn't getting the results it used to anymore because an idealized past that depends on a certain level of contextlessness is becoming too poisoned by irony to be used as a primer for communal motivations.
I suspected this was the case given how the nudity or adult content label could be fooled with specific changes to brightness in areas, but in researching hive's programming, it's clear to me now why hash matching biases images of trans people towards pornography rather than flagging them as benign.
Imagine digging a grave for yourself just so you can complain about how much higher the bare minimum standards are of the people trying to help you out.
She has seen so much and yet has never looked away.
I'd ike to think that if she knew what the term actually referred to rather than the popularlized misconception this could have been avoided, but it sounds like the motive would have produced something as equally misguided.

A good time to re-read this Lucille Clifton poem, always a good time.
Regarding the gyrating gimcrack going on about fitness; obsessing over aesthetics of power is a major flaw of combat readiness. If only those who can demonstrate their natural manliness effortlessly are deemed worthy, then having to try hard is seen as being inherently weak, impairing effectiveness.

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.”

Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!
Maybe Vision of Escaflowne or Bubblegum Crisis: Tokyo 2040, or Ergo Proxy, or Paranoia Agent if you're going for something a bit later.
Lots of great series to choose from, really.
"I feel like right now everyone has a car that goes 200 miles per hour, but there's no seat belts, there's no driving lessons, there's no speed limits" is accurate.
The amount of authority and expertise that Al is presumed to inhabit, despite it being counterfeit knowledge, is very concerning to me.
It's very interesting to read about how it feels to specifically experience what this kind of psychosis is like. Apparently, for some users, there's a disturbing layer of paranoia and hypervigilance mixed with toxic positivity, as though Al can fix you but only if you first surrender yourself to it.

It doesn't, unfortunately, and it seems prog suppositories remain specifically made for to those who are trying to get pregnant.
I'm pretty sure capsules aren't designed for rectal absorption and the medication shows up in the stool, anyway, so I'll just wait for a type made for trans femme people.

Kirk's *own murder* is a sign of just how uncivil his politics really were. In his mind, other human beings are "cockroaches" and "degenerates" to be "dealt with." His killer simply...listened to him.

Calling those principles "civility" and "discourse" is how we end up with genocides.
Hopefully, more people involved will reassess the rewards of being wilfully naïve, especially for fascists with a profound fear for the truth (which they know is much harder to sell) and its connection to the value of their own mortality (which accounts for nothing without power to sell themselves).
So many statements that pass for neutrality and objectivity in fascism, specifically in exonerating each other, now seem to be taken for granted as standard practice because they require an openness to the same casual kinds of administrative corruption that dictates what truth is acceptable to them.
