Many homophobic people say "I CAN'T IDENTIFY WITH THE GAY ROMANCE IN THE LAST OF US."
-LGBTQ people identify with straight folks in media all the time
-it showcases how they don't see LGBTQ folks as human
-the ep is about, textually & subtextually, Joel relating to Bill.

Deeply haunted by a study that found human beings are *less than 50% accurate* in determining whether they are being flirted with.

South Australia’s electricity mix over the past 48 hours.
Wind is covering the evening peaks.
The only fossil fuel still left in the mix is gas (6% contribution over 48 hours).
The best part? Prices have been negative. In coal-reliant stares, they’re well over A$100/MWh.

Next Monday, Quantum Leap will be putting the spotlight on a trans story in a time where our rights are one of the most aggressively debated issues in the political landscape, and I couldn’t be more proud. Representation can be radical, and this is why I hope you all tune in

So I may not be doing single-player guides at Fanbyte anymore but here's a quick one for the Dead Space Remake.
Go to the Breakroom, stand in the circle, and input the following:
melee, stomp, melee, melee, stomp, melee, stomp, melee, melee, melee, melee, stomp.
Enjoy!

Not specific to one but many: "Africa" is always one place that is often sparse desert, with some tufts of grass or few trees, with an elephant and/or lions.

in honor of "10 miles west of Boston", what is the funniest shot from a movie/tv in terms of CLEARLY not being the place it says it is. This cannot be an intentional joke.
