Hooray, welcome back! How's it going?

https://www.bbc.com/news/stories-46261699 This feels very messed up. O.o

Yes! :[ Okay not that one, but close enough? Zygon?

That's a lazy reply

I love you. ❤️ You're delicious when fried.

Why not join us here?

I'm clearly the winner here.

Mandy doesn't think very quickly.

I'm a big fan of creating a good balance of tastes on food, and it's something I always aim for when cooking. A complimentary balance of sweetness, saltiness, sourness, umami and bitterness can be wonderful. For that reason, adding pineapple for sweetness and slight acidity is a great idea to me.

I'm not a evolutionary biologist by any stretch, but there are some theories I've heard around this. There are cultures where there are long-established third genders. These are not exactly the same as homosexuality by our definition, but it works reasonably well as an existing, parallel example. For example, here's an interesting article by the BBC on the Fa'afafine of Samoa: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-37227803 The point here is that while these non-reproducing members of a society don't replicate their own genes, by nurturing and supporting their families' offspring they give those offspring a better chance of survival. Considering that these are often the children of their siblings or other relatives, they do--in the end--support the furthering of their families' genes, of which they share a large part. If this theory holds water, then I'd argue that homophobia is not particularly a natural side-effect of evolution.

Your signature is at odds with the true words you speak, Mandy.

Cake is the best, easily.

Sweet. I stopped a while a few year ago. When I first moved to a new city I logged in and a bunch of people saw that. They started asking "Hey! Are you new to the area? Welcome!". I explained I'd just moved to the country, and people offered to meet up if I wanted some social contact. It was a very nice moment, but I never took them up on the offer...

Gunninglike! It's been a long time. How's it going?

Ah yes, Bernkastel the great traitor hero.

Defined nut ma. Someone who prefers penises over pens. I mean penises. I MEAN PENCILS.

Caaaake

I binged-watched 6 episodes of Westworld on my flight across the Atlantic. I think it's incredible! Anyone else seen it?

Or *cough*torrent*cough*. Sorry, a bad cough there. Wow, Gandorian. I watched the season finale last night. Incredible. Shocking. Looking forward to season 2 too! Though I worry that they used all of their good ideas and it'll suck.

Well I follow it and I still can't. >=/

Yep, current posting from the US. ^^ (Also been to Asia and Africa.) Someone who enjoying running.

I am rather partial to some bacon. Someone who's tried being vegetarian.

Dude, catch up, you're the better part of a decade behind. On topic: I, too, thought it was great! Pretty epic start to the episode. That was very satisfying, in a classic GoT morbid kinda way.

Welcome to the NADC! Where are you from in Germany? You should post in the member intro area!
