110% The pain is the point. Anything else is secondary to the sadism.

I remember many years ago reading the findings of a study done by the US military about the info that they got out of people at Guantanamo Bay, and basically running out into a field and shouting "Are there any terrorists here??" was more or less as useful, and any field info -regardless of how much or how little - was way more accurate and useful. By the time you even get somebody in front of the torturers, what they know is probably outdated, and you're more likely to get false info than anything true anyway because people will tell you whatever you want to hear to make it stop, even if they have to make shit up right then and there.
They're not evil and old like Trump They're just old and unable to fight a post-truth populist like Trump
They don't understand how important it is to never show capitulation
You're basing your beliefs on tribalism to justify their actions.
Do better. Show evidence.
Approach Moshe Safdie's company about building Habitat 2027, 60 years after the scaled down compromise was built:
The first thing I add after an ad blocker on a fresh Firefox install will always be Shinigami Eyes: a crowd-sourced system for marking transphobes and allies across the web.
I've got some L'Oreal stuff that I'm pretty sure says to let it sit. But honestly, unless you're using a medicated shampoo like you said, because I've also seen some of those that say it, who has that kind of time.
You're supposed to leave shampoo in for 5 minutes before rinsing to get the full effect, especially if you have long hair.
It wasn't until I grew my hair out that I learned how much goes into a "proper" wash beyond just "scrub with soap and a cloth/loofah." I went from like 10 minute showers with half of that being trying not to fall asleep in the shower, to 30 minutes if I'm doing more to my hair that day than giving it a rinse.
Or, if you have a bathroom with a washer and dryer in it, throw your towel and clothes into the dryer. That way you hop out and immediately into a nice warm towel followed by warm clothes.
Alternatively, if you have old school radiator heating, just throw your towel/clothes on the radiator. Does the same thing, though it might be pretty hot when you get out depending on the climate that you live in.
I think I broke something. Help.
Is "antinatalism" some kind of organized movement or something? Because I think the reason that they're getting downvotes is because it comes off as saying "your personal choice to not have kids makes you a eugenicist and a Nazi, kids are the best thing to ever happen to you in life and everybody wants them, even if they say they don't." It certainly came off that way to me, but I've never heard the term before. I just don't want to bring another life into this hellhole of a country on this burning world that we continue to do nothing to fix.
This is literally how we got here. Dems capitulated over and over during Obama's presidency to keep programs like SNAP going, and Republicans have run the same strategy ever since. Stonewall everything as long as you can, and blame it on the other side the entire time. And people eat it up every single time.
I've been waiting for Valve to release their new headset before I jump back into VR and decide what I get to replace my original Vive. I still have a few questions as well, like the price, but it basically looks like everything that I want in a headset.
It has eye tracking since it uses foveated rendering, the new pancake lenses that have made a huge splash in recent years, better resolution than the Index, and they've said that it's built to be modular so that there's the possibility of adding new features down the line - including stuff like a port on the face plate that allows for high speed camera info as well as data, so stuff like face tracking should be as easy as plug and play once people get to tinker with it. No need to pull off face plates or solder wires like people were doing with their Index.
The biggest question I have left besides the price is the battery life and the feasibility of having it plugged in and charging while you're using it.
