As a poly and bisexual trans person, I really don't believe that poly people are or should be part of the LGBT community. The vast majority of poly people are straight and cisgender and are either unaffected by or apathetic towards the attacks on the rights of LGBT people.
I think that including other groups like poly people and furries (which you didn't mention, but I have seen others advocate for) into the larger community "umbrella" isn't appropriate and, in my opinion, distracts from the real violence and oppression that many of us still face. People who are in sexual minority groups absolutely deserve support and respect but I don't think that the best way to do that is to call them LGBT.
Sorry, what? Newborn babies can't shoot a gun and can't take care of themselves if their homes are bombed and their parents die. Not to mention that half of Gaza is already under 18 and probably won't be having babies any time soon, given that hospitals are being targeted. What the fuck is wrong with you?
Any premature prohibition on the use of 6PPD in tires would be detrimental to public safety and the national economy.
...What about the safety of my body? Or the health of children and animals? It's not as if tire waste dumped into the ocean just stays in the US, this could be affecting Canada and Central America too, as well as other places.
I don't understand how a manufacturer's consortium can basically be like, "we don't want to spend the money to find a new chemical that works similarly on short notice, so we're just going to lobby to poison you indefinitely."
It would be nice to have F-Droid and other app repos available on the Play Store. Or some other solution that puts alternative app sources on a more level playing field.
I'm sort of sick of seeing it when it's not necessary. For example, the sex scenes in Mad Men add to the narrative whereas the sex scenes in Grey's Anatomy don't.
I get why they do it, but it gives me the same feeling of ambivalence as an ad I've seen 100 times. I'm not the type of person to watch a show hoping to see some side boob or a naked hip bone.
It also hurts, and since I'm not very active I don't have the physical stamina to bike distances much longer than a couple of km. I biked to work for a short while when I lived closer to my job but now I can't.
As someone who experiences pain while walking essentially any distance over 100m, I don't want to walk for my groceries. But it's nice to have a store nearby. I really want an e-bike, but since I need a car and am already forced to pay for one, I can't really afford to have both.
I agree with your interpretation, but I really wish publishers would go back to calling additional levels or story content an "expansion" instead of DLC. It's a lot more clear and differentiates from other types of content like a character costume or a soundtrack.
Yeah, their ads are a lot more aggressive than they used to be. I recently started watching SkyMed with my wife and it's nearly unbearable - and they want $5/month to get rid of them. At least cable didn't just play the same 6 ads over and over. :/
Disney owns Marvel and has since 2009 so I don't think they particularly care as they likely made the decision themselves.
Disney also owns a lot of things that have nothing to do with media or entertainment, so they can fail for several years straight without needing to change course. Money can buy success in many, many cases.
