Fennoscandia then

Sweden is clearly the cock and Finland the balls. Norway is only for Klingons.

Coffee is also bad for your gall bladder if you already have gallstones. It can help prevent them before they’ve formed though

In French, sure. But unless you also talk about the national budzhay, you get that loan words can have different pronunciations.

I’ll take that opening.

I was in a large, beautiful house with my whole family and captain picard there. As punishment for some unknown crime, we had to keep all doors open, could not cover ourselves with anything (even blankets), and there were cameras everywhere, live-streaming everything. The people punishing us had 250k dead crows that they wanted to bury us under, and they just used the cameras to keep track of where we were and they were trying to trick us into getting caught near the open doors or letting them in. Their only restriction was that they couldn’t go inside without permission. On top of that, I was asked to explain a crappy joke with lots of buildup to Picard, but he kept getting distracted and I had to keep restarting.

This happened last week as I was a bridesmaid for a very complicated wedding.

I never realized how much colm meaney looks like Gorbachev.

Less waste? They euthanize them first. I’d give them my body after I’m done with it, but it’s probably not going to be safe to eat

cool, didn’t ask.

I voted they should be creatively hanged

Post conventional anti theft view: he should steal the drug and publish its formula for the others who need it

But women can be dudes too

I (afab) call my husband, sisters, and female friends bros, dudes, dawgs, and guys.

Whether I’m a lady is debatable, because I’m a little rough around the edges, but I’m definitely female and wear skirts.

Straight men view other men through a lens of heterosexuality, and that is part of what is currently understood as the male gaze. I don’t see where shen used “female gaze,” but alright.

Honestly, they’re probably thinking about wartime or being in prison or something where the options are homosexuality or celibacy

It’s to break up the splash and to dampen the smell

I think you might have meant to reply to the person who replied to me, but my first thought for what would appeal to the female gaze is binging with babish: the forearms, the cooking, and the way he talks seem like things that would work for a broad stroke of heterosexual women (though it’s not actually an example, as it’s not shot by a woman).

Things like Henry Caville in a bath are fan service, not the male gaze nor the female gaze, but things like rob liefeld comics draw men through the male gaze (the origin might have been only for the depiction of women, but just as the original description of the male gaze expanded on Sartres concept of the gaze, idea of the male gaze has been more fully developed and applied to the perception of men). Things like muscles so big there’s no chance they can reach any part of their own back fall into this.

As for the female gaze itself, yeah, I’ve read fanfiction wherein male body parts are basically directly mapped to female ones (presumably because the author is not familiar with men’s bodies). I think it would be a lot harder for me to recognize a subtler variant of it though, as I’m a woman. I wish there were a large enough body of work for the female gaze to be explored in more depth.

Guns to plowshares is the best choice here

I think it would have been funnier (but maybe less accessible) if the thrower had turned into an absurd comic book character exaggeration of masculinity. That’s also the male gaze and would make more sense in the context, but I do get that most people think of the male gaze as something applied to women.

Oh absolutely, this is unfortunately not the only genocide currently being attempted, nor are genocides the only seemingly immeasurable hurt that we’re currently committing against humanity.

I’m an immigrant in Germany, and even after visiting concentration camps and seeing multiple Stolpersteine (memorial plaques) per block in most cities, the massiveness of the holocaust still hits me in waves.

You’re right that we need to weigh these types of crimes, and their scale is not an excuse to bury our heads in the sand.
