   @wallamidyl Actually, and not to disagree with the spirit of your post because I very much do agree with you, but white people don't see themselves as "white Americans." Just "Americans." It's everyone else, everyone marginalize and othered from that norm that they identify as "different" and or "less" than that.

   In white supremacists societies, white people truly do not see their own whiteness; only its absence in others.

   Whole books been written about this.

   ...to me than what I had already been through, watching patients (including children) die of cancer knowing there might be something more to save them if not for corruption. If not my drug, then someone else's. But I knew greed was limiting their choices, and watching kids die of cancer is bad enough when you don't know that.

   In that same setting I lost the best man I ever knew, for whom I titled my book THE LAST ROSE OF SUMMER. That's the title of an Irish poem about betrayal and death.

   @jodmentum Wow! I didn't notice that.

   In Musicbrainz, the general rule on Romanization, especially East Asian names, is to follow what the person prefers, or official websites. If there's no clear preference, Romanize as per the current legal system. And if there's no official Romanization, just follow the common choices. (Everything else goes in the "alternative name" section.)

   I guess only Musicbrainz makes any sense. 😅😅

   It would have been fine and understandable if these database sites will accept corrections instead of rejecting or reverting it (supposedly crowdsourced). It's understandable asking for "reputable sources" but we don't need a detective for simple corrections. 😅😅😅 That's like consulting an Attorney if we'll go to prison if we murder someone.

   Oh well.

   Hm, IDK, having the two Iranian-backed terrorist organizations next door (to Israel,) plus the Houthis in Yemen constantly a fuses to the Middle East's powder jeg fir the Mullah Regime?
   This could only be in the US' interest, if the government represented solely the interests of the US arms manufacturers. I doubt that.

   In order to defuse the situation, a two-state, envisioned by the UN for decades, is the only solution that takes account if both side's...

   @millions @miah @mcc I'm glad that Linux exists in cases like that.

   In the meantime, MS needs to add 2-3 more years to WIndows 10 past 2025 unless they're willing to face the outrage and fury on all fronts.

   > I need more clarity about whether they've resigned themselves to adapting to the new bodies or what.

   Yep! It also appears to me that they quickly accepted their new reality and no longer care much if and when they switch back. They did not even go through the trope/expected reaction: “don't touch my body!” or “where's my <anatomy_here>”.

   They both act and live as a man and woman. I think the writer is also approaching it from a scientific perspective? Theoretically at least, a man and woman's body remains the same, so when there's consciousness/spirit transfer, they can only do as much as the body has been capable of doing since. The graceness, the endurance, and all that.

   In addition to that, a consciousness will be affected by the body's hormones. And we know for a fact that the hormones of men and women are different. And since only their consciousness transferred, the way their brain is wired is also subject to the physical brain.

   Thus, the ML in the FL's body, without his knowledge, is influenced by that body's female hormones and the way that body's brain is wired. And similarly with the FL in the ML's body. Sooner or later, their consciousness will adapt and accept that new reality and live as one.

   I think that's why it appears that they've quickly accepted their body swap. The ML in FL's body is living as real woman, and the FL in ML's body as a real man.

   UNLESS! They were swapped somehow when they were younger, and actually just returned to their own bodies. If so, then of course, they'll be “at home”.
