Something beautiful for this day: Honeybee on a blanket flower, Yakima, Washington (September 2024). #bees #flowers

All you have to do is look at the first post of all of these accounts to see THEY ARE HERE TO TROLL. Don’t take the bait.

What is the methodology for this study? Are they just interviewing very online people? What about people disinterested in social media?

And yeah, it's all anecdotal on my part, but the straights I know in real life are still meeting much the same way they did 30 years ago.

I have one late 20s coworker that said she played with apps a bit, but she went back to dating former classmates and friends of said classmates like everyone else.

I've seen this graphic before, and maybe it's the field I'm in but literally everyone of my coworkers with a spouse or fiancee met the old fashioned way:

Befriending peers in high school or college, fucking those friends, eventually getting engaged to those friends.

How would anyone have comic book leaks in the first place? That's not a medium that gets leaked.

people gotta treat this behavior the same as we treat shitting on the floor

Kinda funny how antis ignore the fact that reylos have been writing throuples for years.

Finn and Vicrul have both been with Ben and Rey, Tava's gonna be in that fictional bedroom too.

Not every reylos does, of course, but tons of them do.

The films aren't consistent either, jungle predator and city predator didn't see the same way. None of the media is consistent, with books showing the predators seeing colors in infrared AND the usual light spectrum.

His character is blind in one eye, but presumably he should see like any other yautja (or human) in the light spectrum.
In the novels, they see colors such as red or blue like any human.
The mask and thermal viewing is just premium tech hunters have gotten used to.

claire said it best when she said the aniseya girls are just if two little baby fawns made a wish to become human girls and it came true

There is that tension between characters existing as their own people and being the plot device for a protagonist. And it's difficult to tread.

However the character does end up being just a plot device, to walk out of the series as soon as the heroine or hero realizes who he really loves.
But then, many characters are just plot devices. Seducers, wise old women, dragons, dead children.

There are also people who love the trope--it persists for a reason. It originally allows the protagonist to understand why their one true love is the one for them, by having this new person as a temptation, foil, etc.

This is just my personal opinion, but I don't think a character pulling a seduction gambit negates the badassery she did in the previous issue. It's just a tool in her arsenal.

That being said, I can see why ppl are tired of what is a very old soap and romance serial trope.

It's certainly been a tried and true plotline in every soap I've watched with my mother for decades.
Ultimately there is a "I'll always be a third wheel with your memory of her" or "You can't stop thinking of her (angrily)!

The mechanism by which dogs get enlarged hearts from the diets is still not fully understood. Lead poisoning in dogs is usually neurological signs, nausea, etc

I see about 2 younger dogs a year at the vet clinic I work at with heart disease and damage from grain free diets

We tell everyone with a new dog to not do these diets. They are NOT safe to give.

This is a common trope in my mother's soap operas: seductive, enticing love interest shows up to get the just-dumped man or woman in their grasp, but it just highlights how much the protagonist is still in love with their soulmate.

The look on Tava's face is funny, she thought she had him in the bag.😆

Kylo: ugh, non-Rey woman kissed me.

Shit I was just looking up his posters 15 minutes ago, what the hell.

Random fun fact of the day - women are the reason #StarWars #publishing exists. And the reason it has been so successful that it could endure as it has for so many decades.

(I'm an expert on this stuff)

Stupidly, yes.

Same!

No more tragic romance in Star Wars. Society has grown and evolved past the need for tragic romances in Star Wars.

This really fucking sucks!!! I’m not even paid to be here by an outlet, so doing this is just fucking me personally!
