No time is universal because time moves at different speeds under different gravity. The point of this initiative is to be able to accurately measure time in the moon's lower gravity.
I think this is actually a mechanic is Vampire: The Masquerade!
Edit: not a direct source (World of Darkness doesn't have an SRD like D&D does) but yeah, this is definitely a thing! http://theanarchstate.wikidot.com/mechanics:poisons-and-drugs
Yeah calling a woman a bitch just oozes extra sexism that calling a man that doesn't. That's definitely in slur territory as far as I am concerned.
I saw a headline today about Trump (in private) calling Kamala Harris a bitch and someone referred to it as a slur (presumably against women). Since there's not an exact equivalent for men, but bastard is usually the "equivalent" male-aimed curse word, I was wondering when we would see someone on beehaw arguing that "bastard" is a slur, but against the children of unmarried parents.
Bastard is only a slur against a person born to unmarried parents if being born to unmarried parents is considered wrong. In older times, this WAS seen as wrong, because sex outside of marriage, and raising a child outside of a traditional family unit, was seen as wrong.
Bastard lost its 'slur' edge a long time ago. Trying to call it a slur is assigning "wrongness" to the state of being born to unmarried parents.
Words change meaning over time. Calling someone "queer" used to be an insult (now it can be used as hate speech but I can also say "Oh my friend Lucy? She's queer." without it being hateful). For that matter, queer didn't always have sexual implications (it meant weird) — I feel like trying to call bastard a slur is the same as trying to say "queer" is a slur against the neurodivergent.
You cut off the second part of that sentence. The scam isn't doing the work from a different location, the scam is that they're using the money to fund North Korea. This isn't "Kim gets a job online" it's "Kim is a state actor that is a security risk at any moment and meanwhile causing KnowBe4 to send money to a sanctioned country."
He really did chew the scenery in the best way. It seemed like he was having a ton of fun.
He was so good! He really sold the goblin energy of his character
Edit: okay, goblin isn't fair. Being caught between two juggernauts who absolutely don't give a shit about you, both demanding your loyalty... and all he wants to do is have some agency of his own. It's a great performance.
Shōgun was amazing, I'm glad it's gotten so many noms
Honestly ceiling medallion isn't a bad idea. It's a nice accent. We don't have a TV in our bedroom (because we don't want to use the space like that) otherwise the projector isn't a bad idea either.
Yeah they really didn't think through time zones there...
