I hoped I might be eligible for Irish citizenship through my grandfather, and recently found out that I’m not.
My visa runs out soon and I have to return to the imperial core.
I’m giving up on Lemmy. Too many toxic users. Too many bad mods who fail to remove the toxicity. And toxicity seems to be part of the culture here, judging from how everyone acts like it’s normal. Also, why is everyone a programmer?

I knew a woman who took a job in a porn shop while she worked on her book (a children’s book), and depression set in when she realized she hadn’t touched her manuscript in 2 years and her career was being a porn clerk.
She ended up becoming the manager of three stores.
Edit: This was back in the ‘90s, when people bought porn in stores.
Younger New Yorkers do have the father-bother merger, but older New Yorkers don’t.

I haven’t watched Wakanda Forever, but […] Looking at some of the complaints, it appears to have a similar problem to other modern Disney films, in which women are put on an elevated pedestal and men are left to be bumbling idiots completely incapable of basic human functions.
No, not at all. There are three male characters in the film (Winston Duke’s M’Baku, Martin Freeman’s Everett Ross, and Tenoch Huerta’s Namor), and they are all very competent. One is a CIA agent, and the other two are leaders of their people.
I did watch Black Panther […] I do recall noticing that Disney chose only white actors to play all the villain roles in Black Panther
The villain in Black Panther was Erik Killmonger, played by the very black Michael B. Jordan.
No, they’re the same name. Guylaine is a respelling of Ghislaine that makes the pronunciation more obvious, like how Jeffrey is a respelling of Geoffrey.
They seem different to you because you’re using the non-traditional pronunciation of Ghislaine.
There are two pronunciations.
The original pronunciation is gee-LENN. (Hard G like gum, not gin. Note that the S is silent.)
The more common pronunciation these days is zhee-SLENN.
The gee-LENN pronunciation is still common in Belgium (where the name originates) while zhee-SLENN is more common In France and Quebec.
That’s Heather Locklear, right?
Because he’s winning.
The people calling for Biden to drop out are doing it for one reason: Because they fear Biden won’t win.
It has nothing to do with how moral Biden or Trump are or are not.
Many countries with FPTP have multi-party systems, including Canada and the UK.
