"Photographers search for dark skies in the most remote landscapes to find places where the galaxy shines with extraordinary clarity. They share not only their breathtaking results but also their methods, trials and adventures."
Over one million citizens signed the petition to ban conversion practices.
We hear you.
And our reply is firm:
✋🏼These interventions must end.
Being LGBTIQ+ doesn’t need to be cured.
Yet, conversion practices, relying on the false idea that LGBTIQ+ people are sick, still exist and are causing long-lasting psychological and physical damage.
Your rights are an inseparable part of a true Union of Equality.
We won’t let you down.🏳️🌈

@thibaultmol @nikthechampiongr I vaguely recall this being discussed in the past.
I might have made a guess that their own link shortener allows them to know for sure where the visitors originated, if the link propagates and potentially loses some params.
Which seems like a fairly benign shortener use.
In any case, kudos for the reply, @EUCommission :)
Well, is it already banned and the ban enforced?
If not, you are still letting us all down!
BTW, maybe get a bit informed on the language to use!
@Kosimus you want… adults to be able… to undergo conversion therapy /if they want to/?
what???
Here we go again... 🤦🏽♂️
You did not stated that.
As has been pointed out here:
mastodon.social/@lxsameer/1165…
Seriously, a RIGOROUS social network account for the #EU would revise the poster BEFORE posting it, and ask some LGTBIQ+ organizations if they see anything wrong. They would spotted the problem immediately.
To reiterate you are implying there is other types of cure, and beign LGTBIQ+ is an illness.
What it's sick is that ban this therapies has not be considered until the citizens did a public collection of firms.
How long is going to take you to consider attacks to the LGTBIQ+ citizens a HATE CRIME, punishable with the highest jail periods?.
This two should be MANDATORY for any country that wants to stay or join the EU.
No more discrimination allowed for us in the EU country members.
I think this poster has a big issue. The sentence “Conversion practices are not a cure”, implies that there is a cure, but this one is not one. And having a cure implies that you are talking about an illness. So even by using such a sentence, you are giving in to the idea of “it” being an illness, which I suppose your intentions are the opposite.
Hello @Njord! Thank you for explaining, @PhoenixWright!
We also included a definition of these practices in our response:
Conversion practices on LGBTQ+ people are comprised of a diverse group of mental and physical manipulations, psycho-hypnotic indoctrinations (usually presented to public as “therapies”), medical and homoeopathic interventions, exorcism and other treatments enacted with the aim of altering Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity and Expression.

@PhoenixWright
The EU actually put out a statement supporting people's right to undergo gender reassignment recently.
"Conversion therapy" is something else entirely, It's a pseudoscientific "therapy" intended to make a person stop being LGBT+.
Like a lot of quackery, it is both harmful and and ineffective, which is why they want to ban it
I just read something else about that; it seems we're not going to ban, but we'll ask nicely ?
A very welcome stance and statement.
However: "The European Commission will not enact an EU-wide ban on conversion therapy aimed at changing or suppressing the identity of LGBTQ+ people but will urge countries to outlaw it nationally, in response to a major citizens' petition."

[edited because storytelling is hard :( ]
When I played Moria a long time ago, I distinctly remember selling unidentified items to shopkeepers for ridiculously small sums. Shopkeeper would occasionally identify a cursed item and yell at me. Those were joyous moments of schadenfreude.
Genuinely one of the most maddening things in games x3
I adore Critter Cove but the fact the game makes it impossible to earn reasonable amounts of income from selling things, and instead only from tourism, is immensely frustrating. Even the rare crystal you can only find on a single island only sells for I think 5 doubloons each, and selling a haul every storm isn't enough to buy anything.
Why not just use it on some random encounters and get your gold back that way?
If its resale value is 1 and it cost you all of your gold to buy, then it's unique and probably far more powerful than anything else you can get your hands on at the moment.
Can you rephrase? I'm not sure to understand, thank you.
Or maybe you refer to the format? in this case, you can read: davidrevoy.com/article1138/uni…
This is why you play as a raving kleptomaniac sociopath in all RPGs. Never buy, always loot.

@slowtiger Thank you, the process is still heavy right now, I'm taking 28h per comic strip in average (3h less or more, depending the panels) , starting them often Sunday afternoon, and finishing them on Wednesday.
I'm working on to try to compress the production time until I could reach my ideal: only Monday and Tuesday prod; with under 16h in total.
I'll have to do sacrifice on some aspects maybe to make them more sustainable. I still go to sleep too often after 3am or 5
*wheezy laugh* Such a big mood.
Sorry, it's a used dagger. Liabilities and all that!
