The real anarchist answer is dumpster diving. Removing usable consumable goods from the trash stream is infinitely better for the world than stealing goods from shelves

Grok is an old ttrpg term that means "to intuitively understand something." As in "I totally grok how to play as an elf in ad&d but playing as a wizard is totally over my head"

edit: correct the autocorrect

Don't forget Bush the First, the former director of the CIA and his mad desire to run shadow wars to disrupt democracy in other countries in the name of American corporate interests

Instead of dehumanizing people for being born in a crowded, exploited region you dehumanize them for being less educated than you.

Best way to get confident with chopsticks is to use them more! They're much easier to clean than any tongs. Nothing beats an egg better than a pair of chopsticks.

It's less "child/boy" and more "person I'm responsible for"

The OG writers of the bible didn't want people abusing their positions of power. Some modern bible scholars would like to reinforce that it's "boy" not "ward" in older translations. The cynic in me believes they intentionally focus on that translation because they want to sleep with their parishioners

Fun story, in older translations of the bible, this verse is "a man who sleeps with his apprentice must be stoned. "

But king James' advisors didn't want their proclivities deemed immoral by the religious text they were translating for the masses.

I don't believe the are any other mentions of homosexuality in any other book of the modern English language Christian bible. AFAIK there aren't any mentions in the Talmud- which the old testament is roughly based on.
