Coskiis' stance on pronouns is very simple. Coskii will respect anyones pronouns up until those pronouns are more complicated than a beings name. At which point Coskii uses the beings name instead of any pronouns. Pronouns are meant to be a conversational shortcut. If a shortcut is not being made, Coskii does not feel the need to use pronouns.

Neopronouns are (generally) not more complicated than a beings name. Exceptions do exist.

Writing a message without using pronouns for explicit understanding of how and why pronouns exist in English in the first place, including personal pronouns, is certainly a mood. The flow of sentences is somewhere between legal and caveman. Not using pronouns leaves no wiggle room for any interpretation on the subject being discussed, however the lack of personal pronouns means Coskii must always refer to Coskii as Coskii. Thank goodness Coskii is not a terribly long name.

The only thing I want to reach are my toes. This year I'm going to try to increase my flexibility.

Yeah. Stretch and walk a mile a day.

I've quit both, and the first step was controlling the amount of nicotine I was inhaling. Once that went away I weened off all the other little triggers and cravings I want even aware of until I got hit with them.

But usually only one infinity. In revolution idle, I've collected a score of infinite infinities, which collated into an eternity, and have then collected infinite eternities.

There's another layer on top of that called a unity, but I am not there yet.

For the oblivious folks who genuinely believe in the flat earth, the issue they mainly have a complete lack of understanding of scale. Having a sun that has directional light naturally, or that light has a limited range it can travel unimpeded, are symptoms of it.

They cannot fathom the size of our planet, some flat out deny the southern portion of the earth is even real. They have never traveled in any meaningful way to understand the distances they likely travel on a daily basis, let alone larger distances. Expecting them to not attempt to point at daily items like a desk light and think 'that's how the sun do' is a massive failing on general education more than it is those folks being willingly ignorant.

The same way it currently does, but the sun is significantly closer and smaller, also is has a range of light, like a lamp shade that makes sure the sun isn't always visible even though it's always above the disc earth, as is the moon (and don't even start trying to reason with the moons movements on a flat earth model, or explain either types of eclipse.. It only gets worse the deeper you look)

And plenty of people are cowards.

Ah yes, all those cool hackers back from the faraway times of the early 2000's. I distinctly remember attempting to not use any letters at all, but throw the entire suite of symbols out there in hopes I was leet enough.

Currently playing as an explosive grenade ranger deadeye.

I had many thoughts on my build as I was starting, and each of those has been shut down because I can't read.

First I wanted to grab the giants blood keystone on the passive tree so that I could use a crossbow and shield simultaneously, then after spending much too long getting to the node I actually read it and it's only for warrior 2 handers. So that idea was scrapped.

Second I wanted to use my weapon specific skill points to build a bossing build. There's a keystone that changes all evasion into armor.. Which would be great for bossing.. But you cannot use the weapon specific points to slot into keystones. Also using crossbows across two weapon slots is extremely annoying. Since you use the basic fire of the crossbow after loading bolts, you need to have both basic attacks on your active skill palette or you'll constantly be swapping back from the second build.

Currently I'm running through act 5 on my own, and carrying friends through act 2.

I believe I've spent at least 60k on passive refunds so far.

At that point avoiding using those words entirely seems like a better way. Could have just stopped at lawsuits. The rest is implied and considering the source most people are very aware.

My grandmother was always a smoker. The smell reminded me of her and her home more than anything gross.

Also the smoke does make the ability to taste and smell significantly worse.

That being said I finally kicked the habit 4 years ago.
