My name is Midna. I am a Sheltie!
I grew up with rotary dialing & found touchtone weird for a while after the switch (I still hate getting phone calls instead of texts regardless); although, our heavy rotary phone was way ahead of my grandparents' wall-mounted, crank-type rotary phones (having the manual crank on the side to "ring" the operator) which were wired with multi-party lines; they had to listen for the pattern of rings before knowing if any incoming call was meant for their farm or for another nearby farm.
Ha ha ha ha - my laugh just startled my dogs!! 🤣
Standard process for OOKP seems to be a custom tooth+bone implant to replace what was removed. Source: https://www.allaboutvision.com/treatments-and-surgery/vision-surgery/corneal/tooth-in-eye-surgery/ "Patients also need to see a prosthodontist to receive a replacement tooth for the one used for OOKP. A prosthodontist will also be able to replace or reconstruct any other affected oral tissue."
Same.
This was my first thought too! 😂
Joining the EU would be AMAZING!! Just think of the potential benefits to education, healthcare, transportation infrastructure, & workers' rights!! Moving further away from the possibility of extremists gaining gov't control via pressure from the USA would be icing on the cake.
I've thought about moving out of Alberta... But I think it's better now to stay & fight for my friends' & neighbours' future. Refusing to give more ground to the cancerous hatred is necessary before continuing the push forward to create a future that can be better for us all to share. (Yes, it really feels like losing battles... But the war is not over yet.) 🌈 We are all connected 🔗🏳️🌈
Mental health challenges should exist in life as a "one-at-a-time choice" or possibly "best two out of five" odds in life, rather than "everything, everywhere, all-at-once" format for so many & only learning survival strategies as $$$ extra credit later in life. Hmmmm .. I really should re-watch that movie again, come to think of it!
Oh damn... You're probably right.
It's not just you... AI lacks too many of the filters required for it to identify & isolate facts vs errors, so it's reliably generating "partial garbage" from a massive, unfiltered mixture containing some usable facts overlayed by a virtual layer of sludge-coated debris. AI is still largely unusable.
I'm not trying to argue that "feelings" overrule logic; I am saying that your assumptions of "fact" & "definition" are flawed. (Also... Why do you feel the need for all those ShOuTy CaPitALs? Deep breaths are helpful... Just saying...)
Again, I think you're still missing the point here... Scotland is not British "by definition" - just because they're currently under British rule doesn't remove their identity as a country; similarly, Ukraine didn't before & wouldn't now suddenly become Russian, First Nations here didn't "become Canadians" because their lands were invaded & occupied, & Palestine isn't Israel's land... Being granted citizenship after invasion or occupation is irrelevant, or varying from your viewpoint. Chill out
Agreed: your body = your choice!! Nice "right to repair" comparison! I got my 1st tattoo in my 30s - it's 34cm (= ~13") long on my leg, so generally not visible at work - & then groups of rainbow-coloured cartilage ear piercings in my 40s... Because why the hell not! My visibly-there piercings help remind me of how far I've come & celebrate/represent diversity+inclusion to encourage others. I work in Pharmacy & for years was afraid to stand out, but it helps me help others! Love who you are!🌈🎨
I think the Scottish would disagree with you on the grounds that they're from Scotland (literally "Land of the Scots"), & because having British citizenship by being part of the UK doesn't take away from Scotland being its own country... https://www.thenational.scot/news/24334355.census-scots-ever-identifying-scottish-not-british/
And a little white whale on the go!

Marvelous!! 🤓👍🏻👍🏻 Diamine makes wonderful inks! Love the chemistry-based twist on a favorite format for ink reviews too. Cheers! ✒️

Anybody want a peanut?
Deadly inaccuracies... 😣
You do seem to be correct... Wood is much better than the worn-thin, rusty-red carpet I thought I was seeing on the staircase. Reminded me of a similar-looking ancient, smelly, rusty-red carpet that covered the staircase at a very, very elderly relative's house many decades ago.
I can smell that carpet... Ugh.
That was my first thought... Frozen cloth tears more often than not, & they are a long ways away from any replacement options. 🥶
And don't forget to irradiate yourself with intense UV light! /s
Hope that you & your fiancee find a workable balance for your upcoming wedding, so you can enjoy some of your day & can both agree to schedule a number of potential "escape times" to just give you opportunities for leaving to walk outside for a bit or nap or something else that "recharges" you! Getting married doesn't mean you need to dress formally, to have a multi-course meal, be available/accessible to your guests for the entire day, or whatever. Be kind to yourself!
I have a similar "people" reflex, so my solution was to be married outdoors (reserved a larger picnic site from city parks dept)... No need to pick decorations, colour scheme, dress, or bouquet. Trees, open space, & next to a lake, so the open space helped (walking paths to "escape" & wander as needed). I requested everyone wear comfy picnic clothes (byo camp chairs & picnic blankets). We supplied a big buffet from local BBQ restaurant, so families with little kids & pets came & went as needed!
Regardless of a debate on "common short-forms"... Sounds like guy was describing polysexual interest (female & female-presenting & trans female). Source: pansexual & not into polyamory. Good for him, letting go of the gender-limited expectations from the society in which he grew up!! Definitions regarding genders & sexuality I've found to be more useful in learning about the Self, rather than in "categorizing" for others; more like a spectrum of influencing features of my personality & interests
