After hundreds of thousands if not millions of people started posting pictures of napalm girl, Facebook has decided to undo their decision to ban the photograph for showing a naked girl, and not delete accounts for it anymore.
It is now allowed again to post it on Facebook. It's unclear if people whose accounts have been deleted for 'child pornorgraphy' will have their accounts restored though, news article doesn't say anything about that.

Facebook had deleted the picture from a historical background story done by the Norwegian newspaper Aftenposten, incurring the wrath of journalists, the Press Awards Foundation, the Norwegian PM, and the general public.

the famous photo:

Also how can they be bisexual with only a single sex?

Pearl [said gem in question] has been in relationships with both humans and gems, I believe.

Ah, so... xenosexual doesn't work, it implies exclusivity.

That's actually an interesting thought. What would you call someone who is attracted to both sapient aliums and their own species? Might be a more appropriate application of pansexual.

It's entirely possible that, even if a new term is invented, the word "bestiality" will see an uptick in popularity. Depending more or less on how human-like the ayylmaos are. Though if there's already a word (in English) for someone who does that, I haven't heard it.

"Beastiality" doesn't strike me as the right word, though. That should be reserved for "interactions" with non-sapient life.

I think the implication was that it would be used as an insult :v

E: whoops, ninjad

Flies aren't so bad anyways. If we want to bring a species to extinction it should be the blood-sucking mosquitoes. The ecology argument doesn't even work because there are more species of mosquitoes that don't drink your blood and spread disease and bullshit.

Fact: actual bats are a thousand times the better super hero than Batman because of all the mosquitoes they eat every night. I bet Batman only kills like two or three per day.

You would call them heretics.

So exams are now over and thesis is the only thing in my way \o/ Bring it on midterms of my first sem! (Before I go OJT ;~;)

But that said, the destressy thing I mentioned earlier did a BEAUTIFUL job given the omakes people write. And thanks to those who described what an omake is, because I was enthralled by the poetic power of one of them that had me re-reading and scrolling back because my poetry-parser is very rusty, in which the context is a daemonic invasion on the protagonists' world and a viewpoint in a very creative theme. (Warhammer 40k thread) Every stanza pertains to a main character in the defense of each city in the story ._. albeit unnamed due to the viewpoint.
♥ poetry.
♥ creativity \o/
So wonderful, the power of cultivated words. ♪♫
_{Yeah it's been more than a week to read up from the OP to that omake--following IC turns then omakes respectively. SO MUCH WRITING. SO MUUUUCH.}

I have started watching SAO

Spoiler: Saos are bloody delicious (click to show/hide)

They go just great with some margarine and Vegemite spread on before pressing 'em together as a sandwich and letting it all squeeze through the holes. So nice.

To be fair, he totally is a heretic by the standards of his civilization. You don't consort with a xeno - a xeno psyker no less! - in the Imperium of man and not get slapped with a heresy charge.

[Frumple]

Unless you're an inquistor with the right connections, anyway. Or probably a few dozen other things.

[Baffler]

Well he's still a heretic, those positions just have a higher tolerance for heresy than would exist for the average person.

It's also one of my favorite WH40K stories ever. Heresy be damned, love is cute.

[Helgoland]

What story is it?

[KingofstarrySkies]

Love Can Bloom!

[ECrownofFire]

You may want to not link that, considering it's extremely NSFW.

Unfortunately, it looks like he went offline.

[Sirus]

The story itself is safe, IIRC. Just some of the artwork below it is NSFW.
