Hrm, I dunno buddy it seems like ur the maths guy here maybe if you'd given "the language of emotion" its due a bit earlier you could have read between the lines that "pay a liveable wage" means that the wage isn't fuckin liveable and done the maths yourself?

And so now, let's tug on that loose thread... I'm sure many of my left-leaning readers will say, "This is obvious, we have been talking about it for YEARS!" Yes, many of you have; but you were using language of emotion ("Pay a living wage!") rather than showing the math. My bad for not paying closer attention; your bad for not showing your work or coming up with workable solutions. Let's rectify it rather than cast blame.

Listen to the wisdom of sister Xian

I'm talking this kind of bitch
He smiled to himself. This maid would be easier to deal with than he'd imagined if she was this stupid. Who would bully someone and then directly turn around and leave them alone to make the food? He carefully removed the little branch of needle-gut pine, looking around the small kitchen for something to mask the taste. "Your tea is here, sister. I've even found some honey to put in there so don't be angry anymore, ok?"

She also has a wonderful queer horror collection called Managing and Other Lies
Cover oh the book "Managing and other lies" by Willow Heath. The colour scheme is predominantly red and blue. A femme person's face is silhouetted and inside is a spooky looking old house. In the background are blue flowers.

Who is the #1 bishounen of all time? My top 4 are probably:

Alucard
Jinshi from Apothecary Diaries
Howl Pendragon
Ayame Souma

I originally just had a top 3 but how could I possibly leave this off?

Direction.
Screenshot of text. Demeth grabbed the young soldier by the hair and pulled his head up. "So, you're the man who tried to kidnap my sister in law." "It's not kidnapping. I have an official warrant from the king's court for her arrest. If you'll check my left pocket..." Demeth ignored him, prodding at the bleeding lump in his fine blonde hair. "I see you've met Saskia." The young man winced but his expression remained steely. "Should I hand you over to this mob? I'd say it's been awhile since they've had a king's soldier come to visit around here." Demeth continued. "Enough." Saskia stepped forward. "Stop playing with him. Bring him to the main tent for questioning." "I won't tell you anything." The young man hissed. Saskia bent down close to his face, a wicked grin crossing her features. "That's what they all say." As he was dragged to his feet and off in the direction of the officers tent she turned to Ysabel. "I mean, they usually don't tell us anything, but he doesn't need to know that."

A screenshot of nested tweets. ratboy genius @dogpro LMFAO this fucking ad i just got. joyce BBQ'd his illiterate ass so bad he's pushing ads about how he reads books actually Screenshot of ad tweet: Blinkist @blinkist When he's not building rockets, boring tunnels beneath Los Angeles, or sending cars into space, Elon Musk reads a lot. Here are 9 nonfiction books he thinks we should all read. There's a weird picture of Elon that's got the contrast turned all the way up and is coloured red to hide the fact that he looks like something that fishwalked out of the Marianas trench.

Look, I get it. I really want the plushie of the tortured gay god whose husband is a ghost king. In my defence, it's really cute.
Xie Lian plushie from Heaven Official's Blessing. He wears simple white robes and a straw hat and has an expression that can only be described as "sparkling" (very excited, eyes wide and very shiny)

It's such a horny place 😂 There's POV videos of butch lesbians as your stern CEO husband coming home.
People will do outtakes of torture scenes from C-dramas to frame them like a BDSM scene.
The stickers are all like:

Same same, if there's one thing I won't scrimp on it's dishwashing gloves. I want thick, cotton lined, slip resistant and sized for my miniature hands so I don't discover my partner has used them by sticking my hand into a wet glove and screeching in my soul.
My middle aged hand looking good as fuck because I always use washing up gloves. Nails painted black, sparkly red and white with blood drips for Halloween.

Bro I haven't looked at or thought about Alicia Keys in like 20 years and even I know this is her, she's completely recognisable.

A good shortcut is to count hands and count fingers. AI often has disembodied hands and too many fingers. 3 hands holding the pink sign. The green sign is kind of hovering too high for the person to be holding it. The faces are obliterated. The writing makes no sense. Love wal? Love war?

How do I make it work 😭 I just lost my whole night's play coz I couldn't end Karlach's turn. The main menu page keeps switching between these two versions, I feel like the original game and the hotfix are fighting for control 😂
Baldur's Gate main menu looking like shit with tiny text. A big firey gate with a skull on it is in the background. Baldur's Gate 3 main menu looking better with readable text, the same gate in the background.
