I agree with you fully but there's a discrepancy that needs to addressed. Now, before you get the wrong idea, I'm NOT defending or excusing anybody here. The medical staff and the parents should be held responsible for nearly killing this newborn. Child genital mutilation of any kind should be banned.

Now, with that out the way, Male circumcision and female genital mutilation (or FGM, which is what I believe you're referring to when you say 'only applying to girls') are not directly comparable. Male circumcision typically only removes the foreskin of the penis whereas FGM removes the both the clitoris and labia (I shudder while typing this out). It would be like castrating the entire penis and testicles.

Again, this sort of thing should be banned and no child should suffer from the decisions they had no say in.

I don't want to came off as simping for Capcom because they're are a corporation and thus are only profit-driven. But I do want to give credit where credit is due. Greenlighting a sequel despite the first attempt being a flop is not something that many publishers would do. This wouldn't be the last of Capcom's unorthodox decisions. When the industry was laying off workers left and right, Capcom actually increased their employees pay. If that increase was actually a substantial increase or not I don't know but other companies won't even consider increasing employee pay by a cent.

Miss, an old, dingy Volvo 740 wagon can carry twice that in its cargo compartment. Could that poor excuse of a vehicle...?:

Carry already-heavy containers containing even heavier liquids

Tow heavy commercial machinery from point A to point B

Haul heavy earth materials like rocks/cement and actual soil

Transport up to five morbidly obese yet muscular construction workers without its frame giving up

Same. I would like to have a 4WD overland rig that doesn't pollute the air while I enjoy nature. Don't tell the guys over at !fuckcars@lemmy.world this but I kinda want a Rivian R1S but with a near $100K USD price tag, It's probably never going to happen. I'll just stick with eMTBs.

Squinting your eyes on the smaller numbers on the speedometer. I do it all the time!

I'm not going to lie. One of my old reddit accounts had 88 in its username. Not because of malicious reasons though. It was a random number I came up with since the username I wanted was already taken. I got banned from r/comicbooks for that despite proof that I was NOT connected with any racist content.

That's one way to annouce your intentions.

As a Skyrim-first Elder Scrolls fan who only played and beat Oblivion for the first time this year, I feel happy for you Oblivion fans. This remaster was long overdue.

Is that Asahi I see there? Nice setup, btw.

You starting to sound a bit like a 1930s German Bobby boy.
