yes, good point I should have read the synopsis it’s a difficult thing for me

those controls aren’t in place here

this isn’t Shakespeare - it is targeted at teens and young adults, likely watching alone with a ‘happy ending’?

it is a romantic story key plot point - death by suicide

sorry, I’m not into romanticising suicide validating suicide especially given the target audience - teens and young adults who are already in a high risk group

but aren’t these images in this thread (and other threads) “links”? When members press the “Other Media” button the popup window says “Insert image from URL“ for example the image in this post from 28 February 2023 is from the source URL if you ‘click’ on the image the link to the source is displayed: https:// cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0481/4058/3069/files/ezgif-3-c8dbaeeed9eb_480x480.gif “Insert image from URL” is the only ‘instruction/information that members see when they post in a thread using the “Other Media” button so how should @Bill W or anyone else verify “that someone else didn't originally steal that photo and post it on (Wikipedia)”? do posters need to retain verification records of posted links? specifically, what records must be kept?

Chevrolet Corvair 1960-69 how an unusual American car that sold nearly 2 million, was attacked by campaign lawyer Ralph Nader as the most dangerous car on American roads, cost General Motors hundreds of $millions in lawsuits, and changed American law - making consumer protection for American car buyers probably the strongest in the world

time spent on things we enjoy is not time wasted

60 years on and Trekkie fandom just gets stronger

“choice” = analysis paralysis

didn’t Google promise to stop being evil?

thanks Myr - worked a treat! it’s an automatic reflex my fingers have ‘learned’ for every website - so they’re going on a training course NOT to do this for GayAuthors

is embedding Post Images pics in forum posts yet another victim of the infamous “Online Safety Act”? https://freespeechunion.org/archive/hamster-forum-and-local-residents-websites-shut-down-by-new-internet-laws (Note: the Hamster Forum is a notorious fetishistic hotbed of grotesquely animalistic behaviours featuring explicit high resolution images of what these disgusting furry creatures get up to when they think no-one’s looking… )

4 words …and 2,000 years of history

yes but… blame the Victorians, they loved putting things into straightjackets and corsets (especially people ) And give thanks to the French before they invaded England (1066) Old English was an inflected language, like old German (on which much of English was based - more invasions you see 😮) including infinitives, which were just one word (no “to”) which meant because the infinitive (in whichever form) was a single word it couldn’t be split! but the French changed all that, and infinitives became two words - which you CAN split Then, some time later… the Victorians (once they’d got everyone tied up in corsets or straitjackets ) decided that because Latin infinitives couldn’t be split then neither could English infinitives. If they’d based their argument on Old English there might have been some logic. But they didn’t. So there wasn’t And we’ve all been feeling guilty/censorious ever since But, hey, what kid would be roused +inspired by “To go boldly where no one has gone before” or “Boldly to go where no one has gone before”? TOS’s split Infinitive intro is one of the greatest lines in sci-if history!
