Shifting the goalposts" is an idiom that means changing the rules or conditions of a situation, often in a way that is unfair or designed to make it more difficult for someone to achieve their goal. It implies that someone is deliberately making it harder for another person to succeed by moving the target or changing the requirements after the activity has already begun, according to several online dictionaries. Here’s a breakdown of what it means in different contexts: In general: It signifies a change in expectations or standards, often to the disadvantage of someone else. Imagine playing a game where the rules keep changing mid-game, making it harder to win. In an argument: It can refer to someone who keeps changing their stance or demands during a discussion to avoid conceding or to keep arguing. For example, if someone keeps adding new requirements after an agreement has been reached, they are shifting the goalposts. In the workplace: It can mean a manager changing performance expectations or job duties after the work has already started, without proper justification or compensation, says a business blog. In politics: It can describe a situation where a political party or leader changes their position or priorities to suit their current needs, potentially misleading the public or undermining previous promises, reports Forbes. In everyday language: It’s a negative term, implying unfairness and manipulation. People generally dislike when goalposts are moved because it creates a sense of instability and distrust.

Wonderful way to put words in someone else’s mouth. Shift those goal posts a little further. I’m sure nobody will notice.

Case? You seem confused, I said the natives were mostly gone before the English stepped foot in the new world. That’s a historical fact read a book. I’m not saying anything else. I have no case.

The Spanish 100% knew. What pipe are you smoking from friend? They would intentionally trade items from the people in their camp that had smallpox to the natives. That’s how the initial outbreak on the coast started in 1518. They explicitly knew this would happen because they first exploited Cuba and the other New world Islands and found out there in the 1490s.

I know who you are and I know you won’t bother to read into this but for anyone else interested. Most of the native population was wiped out before the first English got here. Disease spreads and a bunch of Spaniards started spreading diseases in the 1500s.

As a “wood” scientist, I’m certain you can understand her appreciation for monster cock.

Out of curiosity is your instance still federated with .ml or that other tankie haven I forget the name of. If so, yes you probably are seeing a lot of bots. It’s quite obvious when you look at downvote and upvoter brigades. Pretty unusual for five people to all vote within half a second of each other. Then to not see any other votes for a while.

By a mile? How many miles of operational rail do we have? Now how many miles do you have? The US has approximately 140,000, mi. There is approximately 10,000 mi of rail across Great Britain and Northern Ireland…

As my British friend Tom used to say

Mate you fucking flunked your maths schooling didn’t ya.

All I’m saying is Amtrak hasn’t folded and rebranded three different times in the last decade. https://youtu.be/IayST598Vxo

It’s funny that the country that invented trains has worse trains than the US.

The Bible isn’t always meant to be taken literally good luck trying to explain that to a Baptist though. (Jesus almost exclusively spoke in metaphors AKA parables ) The first part of Genesis is describing how early hominids became humans. Personally I like the idea that God is more of a 4th dimensional entity that time does not constrain in any form. Basically a mad scientist using what we call evolution to slowly shape and change his petri dish of a planet.

Rape incest and pedophilia are the immoralities as written out in the Bible. Also lust to an extent.

Also, technically yes, all the nuns who have taken vows of Chastity are married to the church as are the pastors…

Depending on your interpretation of the Bible, you’re at least minimum guaranteed marriage to Jesus. Revelations 19

But from my lay perspective there is not a passage in the Bible that says gay sex is worse than eating shellfish so do with that what you will. The thing Jesus actually mentions several times explicitly was adultery aka being unfaithful as in cheating. So as long as its consensual and your not wrecking houses…

Out of curiosity, I am not familiar with the stack that runs the behind the scenes at all for lemmy. Are you blocking IP ranges or something else?

You fools! It’s still embedded in the ice. It just appears invisible because it’s underwater. Don’t you guys know how ice works? Sheesh.
