I have absolutely zero interest in making this movie political.

This is inexplicably the best answer yet. Everyone else is working so hard to think outside the box that the box is inside-out.

-day/night, etc

Once she pieces together that dusk and dawn are in there too she'll figure out day should be mid-day and night should be mid-night. She's right there to becoming history's second timecuber. All she needs to do is take that step past duality, from two to four.

Is Japanese an actual breed or does that just mean the cat was born in Japan?

I recently started pc gaming again, I had played some switch and ds stuff but the last time I had gamed on pc was almost twenty years ago. Even given that I'm focusing on 2d games, I thought there would be a lot more hiccups trying to run windows games on a machine with intel integrated graphics. I like indie games much better in general nowadays, I'm not even going to worry about what I'm missing without buying a graphics card.

If you take away all his goals, he’d be the highest scoring player of all time on assists alone.

This is true, but every other time you've used the word "goals" in this post it should be "points", points = goals + assists. Every goal has at most two assists, but typically the ratio is around ~1.5 assists for every goal. As you say, Gretzky has the record for goals and then also has more assists than any other player has points, which is ludicrously dominant.

One of the most wild things to me is how boring Gretzky highlights are. If you look at highlight footage of the other generational hockey players - Lemieux, Ovechkin, Crosby, McDavid - these guys are insane athletes who are capable of outmuscling and embarrassing the opposition. Gretzky was not a freak athlete, he just had intuition for where to be on a better level than anyone else ever has. I remember reading that when he was eight he got an exception to play in a league for ten-year-olds and completely tore it up, like five points per game, in spite of being the tiniest kid on the ice every night.

It's not even well documented what he was doing because the NHL typically had only one camera per game in the eighties, the one following the puck, and his dominance came from where he was going when he didn't have the puck.

If you watch hockey, every so often there will be a game where a guy doesn't particularly stand out, but then you look on the scoresheet at the end and realize he got four points. You think I guess that he had a good game tonight. I imagine watching Gretzky was this exact feeling, except then you realize you're fifty games into the season and this is like the thirtieth time this has happened.

Ovechkin is actually in striking distance of breaking the goals record, but 50 goals (42? I don't remember where he ended the season.) is a large number for anyone to hit past 38. It's pretty rare for a player to be good enough to still have a roster spot by that point, let alone score 50 in the remainder of their career. Has anyone besides Howe (in the 1970s) scored over 40 goals after 38?

In any case, I'm hoping he can break it. Ten years ago literally no one thought a major Gretzky record could be even remotely in jeopardy. It was not something anyone would give serious consideration.

When I was like six or seven years old, my great aunt Ruth stayed over Christmas eve. She was a nun, so because it was important to her, we were going to open all of our Christmas presents after mass.

Mass was almost three hours. I remember this pretty clearly because I had a cheap casio wristwatch and I was timing it. I probably didn't hear a word of the sermon.

When I was in high school I saw a game called "Prison Tycoon" in a shopping mall Babbages and bought it for my brother as a dumb Christmas gift. I was in the store with a friend and we were kind of in shock. I remember my friend making a comment like "The box cover is just a cop beating a black man with a baton, how many people are involved in getting a game stocked by shopping malls?"

I'm looking through this thread and the concept behind the picture is 100x more fascinating to me than the actual question. Is the number your maximum capability?

I'd estimate I go through the majority (90℅?) of each day at like a 4 bordering on 5, but at times I'll move up to 2. It's a pretty seamless transition, I don't really have an explanation for why it only happens every so often. It's not like it's exclusively reserved for moments where it's more useful.

I've used claws for like ten years and I have never felt any reason to switch, but OP's criticism of thunderbird is that it's too old-fashioned. Claws was more old-fashioned than thunderbird way back when I was trying out different clients, and has had no significant interface changes in the time since.

But yeah, claws is awesome. I can't speak for power users, but as someone who doesn't need a lot of features other than being somewhat idiot-proofed, it works great for me.

My work uses office365 and claws does not work with those mailboxes on its own, it took me a while to figure out the workaround. There's a libre program called davmail that will allow you to access office365 emails from any client, it's in the AUR and for Debian users I believe it's in the native repositories.

Yeah I would totally agree with this if the word wasn't already desensitized a very long time ago. The language has changed. (I'm assuming people were ever differentiating, I don't really know/remember the history.) Colloquially it means interested in teens unless it's clarified to be worse than that.

I recommend not trying to make this argument, anywhere. It will not change the way people use words, even if it could there would not be a point (attraction to pre-teens is so egregious that it will always be clarified), and a lot of people will assume that someone who doesn't accept the colloquial usage is themselves interested in teens and in denial about how the public actually views that to the point where they think only interest in prepubescent children is problematic and handwave everything else away as a language issue.
