Oh god I think this is the first time I've had a dream that made me genuinely uncomfortable. I don't mean spooky, I don't mean awkward, I don't mean embarassing, I mean just genuinely making me go "this is fucked up please let me change the channel". WTF brain why you put me through this

I now feel bad because I thought that meme originated with Genji from Overwatch getting nerfed.

Man maybe you're right. That seems more accurate. I feel old now.

God but I don't miss the old Genji.  Give his left clicks damage falloff while you're at it Blizzard.  And do something about his ability hitboxes.

Huh I am getting mixed messages about the Voodoo doll.

One source suggests that it is pure marketing and is thusly fake.

Another says it exists but the idea that it is a "curse doll" is the fake part (It is a remembrance doll so to speak)

Then I found stuff that suggests that the IDEA of creating a doll or effigy of a person to curse them is... waaaaaaaaaay older then Voodoo and might have been part of many cultures.

World is too complicated.

Damn those new-fangled procedurally generated civs, Earth's worldgen was lagging already, with this new load we're going to crash eventually

Putin issued a personal decree that made Steven Seagall an official Russian citizen. He revoked his US nationality.

Seagall has been showing open support of Putin for the past years, and even publicly defended the annexation of the Crimea.

It had a surprisingly accurate summary of Bush's presidency considering it was written in the first month of it :P.

You mean Seagal renounced his US citizenship? Because the president of the RF doesn't have the authority to strip somebody of US citizenship. Perhaps it's just confusingly worded.

All of those might be correct. The thing about voodoo/vodou/vodun/whatever is that it varies by region, and doesn't even always have the dolls. A particular fetish might mean one thing to a priest from Haiti and another to a priest from Cuba, and nothing to one from Ghana.

My life just had a soap opera moment.
On the phone with my boyfriend, he tells me he's out of moisturiser.
"Oh, that's okay, just steal some from [guy who owns the house]!"
I was on loud speaker.
Close friends to [guy who owns the house] were nearby heard me say this.
They have no idea I meant 'borrow some moisturiser from him.'
So now they have reason to believe the boyfriend may steal something and that I am a terrible person.
Substituting 'steal' instead of 'borrow' is ill advised. Don't do it. :-[
What a strange conclusion to jump to.

It works fine if you intended the second sentence as an aside or parenthetical statement, like so:

Quote
Putin issued a personal decree that made Steven Seagall an official Russian citizen. [Because h]e (Stephen Seagull) revoked his US nationality.

Assuming Putin's decree was in response to Seagal renouncing his U.S. citizenship rather than an unrelated action, anyways.
