Among other things, they’ve been raised to comply with an authoritarian government since 9/11, so their whole lives.

I don’t draw, but I think a lot of the facial sexual dimorphism in people isn’t real. The same features that appear masculine in some populations or cultures appear feminine in others. A bunch of recognizing masculinity or femininity is probably based on archetypes and other signaling features.

In western media women are presented as younger than men, so lots of the features we recognize as feminine like having a smaller nose are really features of being younger. (And also why nose jobs are popular - not only do they make you match a societal beauty standard, they also make you look like your own memories of yourself)

The really observable facial secondary sex characteristics are darkening of hair pigmentation and increased sebum production in men. In art those would probably show up more in shading than line drawing. Feminine makeup in response to those things is kind of a mixed batch. There’s adding shading to the face in places that wouldn’t be darkened by facial hair, like cheeks or under the eyes, which might exaggerate sex linked appearance. Similarly trimming eyebrows to reduce the appearance of darkened facial hair. But there’s also markup to darken and thicken eyebrows, makeup to lighten cheeks instead of darken them, and makeup to add a more oily, glowing appearance.

Gunfire Reborn does that for me, even though I have to play with a controller. Roboquest looks like it’s kind-of between Gunfire Reborn and Borderlands, but I haven’t tried it yet.

Guild Wars (not GW2) didn’t have that problem. All of the skills are just available somewhere if you go get them. The only meaningful build choices are which skills you use, a small number of attributes, and how much of the stats from your gear you are willing to sacrifice to obtain other effects.

You get to level 20 (the cap) fairly quickly in each campaign and still have all the rest of the game to play with expanding options instead of increasing numbers.

You can’t just pick a single build and do everything with it, you need to adapt what you’re doing to the missions you encounter, so you’re more than encouraged to play with the other skills.

No, because if I need information I stop at information places at the border and get a map for free. Sometimes you can get whole guidebooks full of maps and directions and interpretive information for free. I picked up maps or guidebooks multiple times this year.

No, because printing directions off the internet from mapquest etc. has been around almost forever, and although I used GPS a lot to measure positions I never had a smartphone until quite late (2010 I think), so by the time I used GPS to get somewhere no part of it was special or new.

Justice Alito claimed that he and the court foresaw the legal and actual consequences of their decision and what impact it would have on state laws, existing and otherwise. He chose this. He chose to kill somebody by taking away their rights, and now he has.

10s of thousands of nothing. Hundreds of thousands isn’t even enough that “economic growth” at the expense of increased costs and greater inequity would be a net benefit.

A complete Greenland slide-off would be an average sea level rise of about 7m, and is possible in our lifetimes as an extreme event (something like a fraction of a percent chance before 2100). If it happened it would be multiple events really, spread out across years or decades. Antarctic ice moving so its weight is no longer supported by the continent was too unlikely to include in models a few years ago, but the West Antarctic has been so active that I’d expect it to start showing up in estimates.

Don’t give them any ideas. Blueberries and sometimes strawberries are the only thing that’s cheap anymore. Blueberries are cheaper than cereal by a factor of up to 10 (3 cents an ounce frozen or 6 cents an ounce fresh vs 20-30 cents an ounce for cereal). Sure, they’re mostly water and cereal is mostly calories, but the cost of both is dominated by transportation and the blueberries cost more to grow, harvest and handle.
