Is it possible to just tell them it's a medical appointment, but it's about something that you don't feel comfortable talking about?

It's the truth, it explains the secrecy about the appointment, but it keeps the secret.

Lemmy was released as an open-source fediverse alternative to Reddit.

Just over a year after launch, r/ChapoTrapHouse, moved across after being banned from Reddit. This is likely what you're referring to. It had well over 100,000 active users on Reddit, so represented a sudden sizable influx of users.

I'd wager the biggest influx of people by far, though, occurred when Spez upset a majority of mods and many users by banning third party apps.

People looked for an alternative, and Lemmy was it.

But why are so many people who lean left politically? Because the Venn Diagram for "people who like the idea of a decentralised platform that supports everybody and is free from the machinations of millionaires", and "people who would like society that supports everybody and is free from the machinations of millionaires" is nearly a circle.

Let's not do the 'every Christian' thing. It's worth remembering the US has a very 'unique' type of Christian.

This. There is evidence that a preacher called Jesus existed, was crucified, and was well-regarded enough to start a following that persisted even after his death.

There isn't, however, strong historical evidence for any of the magical parts of it.

Fact 1 - sexually active people subconsciously look at peoples' crotches when meeting them.

Fact 2 - evolution doesn't fine tune things if they're good enough to get the job done well.

So the fact that pubic hairs are unsightly crazy-looking things might not be because they are fine tuned to be like that - it might just be because they do their job well enough and they just ended up looking like that.

What job could that be?

To confirm visually that you are sexually mature.

That may literally be it - a localised fuzzy indicator of whether or not you're able to make babies.

I'm not trying to downplay the reality of serious health concerns sometimes being behind food habits, but I think I need to say...

Picky eating is an absolutely normal part of child development. Anecdotally, both of my kids went through two distinct phases of picky eating, at around 3-5 and 8-11.

They gradually grow out of it. All you can do is try to make sure what they are eating is nutritious enough while they are going through it.

I think it depends on the convention used in each country, so there isn't one global correct answer.

In Britain the convention is Ground, 1st Floor, 2nd Floor.

As a Brit, I always assumed the American system worked like that because of freedom or something.

Ayyyyyyy-ch P Sauce.

I cannot overstate how much I love this artwork. It reminds me of visiting Games Workshop as a kid in the late 80s/early 90s and letting my mind run wild with all the incredible box art.

Look, here's an example - first verse "Earth has one moon"

I'm English, so "Won" rhymes with "un". "One" rhymes with "on".
