Tracing shapes & cutting them out.
It’s like 20% sewing, the other 80% being planning, geometry, resource management, tracing, and cutting.
And I often discover that I’m still bad at math! Pain. 🫠

I think it’s all about how it’s said. The simpler, the better. Phrasing is important, too.
Hey OP. Please look up the “Stonewall riots”.
Directly fighting against the forces that are making & enforcing laws that can & will do harm is the right thing to do. If the people in power / enforcing unfair practices see they are unopposed, they will become stronger in their positions. Complacency allows imbalance.
Will I break windows for Gaza? No. I will not. Who will that help? Who am I fighting? That kind of thing is nonsense.
Will I fight police that are attacking students for protesting? YES. YES I WILL. Because if you fight back, they will understand that you will not allow yourself to be walked all over by unjust enforcement. They will think twice about attacking students next time, because they know people are willing to fight back. If they do not encounter opposition, they know they are safe to do whatever they want.
In short: once a bully realizes that you will hit back, they are less inclined to bully you. Even more so if you are backed up by more people who also hate the bully.
EDIT: To be fair, I don’t hope for “collapse”. However, I do understand why people do. The corrupt system goes so deep that collapse may be the only way to dismantle it, as it is beyond any kind of reform.
Do I want collapse? No. But, unfortunately, it may be necessary. The system cannot be fixed without being dismantled, and I’m not optimistic that we will experience a miracle.
Y’all are grown folk arguing if it’s ethical to fuck high school students.
I got nothing to say to that.
No one is accusing him of rape. Just saying his view on the whole thing is sketch as fuck.
17 is enough to be a consenting adult in some actual reasonable countries.
…okay.
Fool me once, shame on me! Fool me twice…
My criticism lies only with people who staunchly defend him and/or consider him a good guy / hero.
I am not a lawyer or a judge.
But “early views” nothing. The guy knows where he stands, it’s just that now he knows that being open about those views will get him in trouble.
An actual good take.
Thank you.
As of 2016, there are reports of Stallman changing his views on the matter within the previous few years.[2] However, in 2018 he defended Cody Wilson, who later pled guilty to sex with an underage girl, with Stallman saying that the girl likely had “entirely willing sex with him.” Stallman changed his original post but nevertheless still said it is “normal for adults to be physically attracted to adolescents” and that adults using trafficked children shouldn’t be legally responsible. In 2019, Stallman posted an email to an MIT listserv about the allegation that MIT professor Marvin Minsky raped a 17-year-old girl, and due to public outcry he resigned from both MIT and the Free Software Foundation.
changed his view on that a decade ago
got quieter about his views
That was my neighbor’s defense, too. “It wasn’t rape! She was very clearly coming onto me!” about the 14-year old girl he “”“encountered”“” as a college student.
He very absolutely understands what rape is. He just doesn’t want age to be a factor if she’s “into it”. It’s very very very very very clear where he stands: if she consents, it’s not rape, no matter her age!
discomfort women
Stallman has made many posts sympathizing with efforts to legalize some forms of child pornography. Among other things, they stated that he was “skeptical of the claim that voluntarily [sic] pedophilia harms children”. These comments were defended by his supporters on Slashdot.

Women are just so sensitive!
“I am not a woman, therefore I am not affected by his comments! Conclusion: good guy!” — far too many people in this thread
Dude also has some… “”“interesting”“” opinions on the legalization of CP.
All you gotta do is contribute to FOSS and you’re a hero?
Some of y’all dumb as hell.
You should scan it and find out then tell us about it.

I second Michigan! I live here, and the middle-state cities here are typically full of left-leaning young folks.
The farther north you go, though, the political leanings get worse. Definitely recommend mid & lower Michigan, though.
Herps herps herps!!
Yeah, he’s a silkback. Less of a “morph” and more of a genetic nightmare. Definitely would never recommend to anyone who doesn’t have a ton of time & money to spend caring for them, + extensive experience with bearded dragon care. A leatherback is the best option of you’re looking for a bit of a smoother dragon!
Revy is adorable!! What breed & morph is she?
You’re correct! But he has a genetic defect, so he looks pretty different from a standard healthy dragon.
He’s a bearded dragon with a genetic defect that caused him to be born without proper scales or spikes.
Because of that, he’s a “special needs” animal, so he needs lots of extra care to keep him healthy.
I’d definitely recommend (fully scaled) bearded dragons as pets! Mine is an excellent cuddle-buddy and constantly makes me smile with his dumb goofy antics and curiosity.
“Spring Cleaning” felt like a turning point to me, in a good way! I feel so fresh, so clean!
“Kid’s Book” was absolutely my favorite.
