You accidentally said "homophonic" instead of "homophobic." A homophone is a word that is pronounced the same as another but with a different meaning, e.g. "weight" and "wait"

When I was doing long distance runs, there was nothing more I wanted afterwards than some chocolate milk

Prevention isn't nearly as flashy and visible a strategy. But wouldn't it be nice

Libraries are basically the only remaining third space, but they don't fill the same need as the original commentor. Libraries don't have places for kids to run around, be noisy, and climb things. That would be awesome though

For fuck's sake

It's definitely worth trying if you're interested.

I would not recommend buying a console or gaming PC first as that is a money sink that you're not sure is worth it yet. My gaming PC broke when I arrived at university, and I got by playing less graphically intensive games on my standard laptop for a few years.

Good games I'd recommend to start with:

• Stardew Valley — cosy, charming farming game that you can play at your own pace. Has great characters that you get to know, and fun, simple, rewarding gameplay. My girlfriend got really into this game.
• Minecraft — this is where many of us started as kids. It's an excellent game that's fun for all ages. There isn't a clear goal so it's more about making your own fun.
• Vampire Survivors — extremely fun, simple, cheap, and addicting game. Play at your own risk.
• LIMBO — a puzzle game classic with a unique, dark aesthetic. Only takes a couple of hours to complete.
• INSIDE — made by the same people as Limbo. Grabbed me and wouldn't let go for the whole 4 hour experience. I don't play many puzzle games but I couldn't get enough of this one. Probably because of the narrative.

Those can all be played on the average laptop or desktop anyone would have.

Best of luck on your journey! Feel free to reply with any questions or suggestions for specific genres and such. My girlfriend didn't play video games until I introduced them to her, and the most important thing was that I didn't try to force any games on her, just show her what there was and let her interest lead the way. So take a look at all the suggestions people are leaving and go with what interests you most. And if you're not enjoying a game, it's okay to go play a different one.

(Also, Steam provides free, no-questions-asked refunds for any games purchased that both 1) were bought less than 2 weeks ago, and 2) have less than 2 hours of game time. So you can always demo a game to see if you like it and return it easily if not.)

They do actually appear the same size in the sky though, which is why we get perfect eclipses. The Moon is slowly getting further away from Earth so it won't be forever. We're just in a lucky moment of time in the universe.

It really is just a coincidence.

Gender studies isn't a job, it's an academic field

It's excellent satire

“I love posting satirical stories to LinkedIn (almost as a hobby now) because no one expects jokes on a ‘professional’ social network,” he said.

Today.com - Man posts about cooking chicken in a hotel’s coffee pot — and the internet exploded

Icons without labels.

Just add a small label underneath. It's not hard. It makes your app way more usable. Please...

This reminds me of a similar joke:

Sharks can swim faster than humans. But humans can run faster than sharks. So in a triathlon, it all comes down to who can bike the fastest

This reminds me of the XBOX 720 memes from back in the day where the console was a sphere or some shit
