I think you’ll need to generate a OTP type thing from a government site that’s a message with a timestamp and maybe the code provided (and chosen by) the website signed by that site’s private key, then have the 18+ website check that it’s signed by the government.

Basically, the digital equivalent of your teacher giving you a letter/consent form to bring home for mummy to sign and then return to the school.

Possibly you could have a fingerprint that goes on it that only the government could recognise if the website hands it over to them (likely under court order) if you are concerned about fraud/people using other people’s accounts.

Lemmy.world isn’t blocked. Contrary to popular belief, lemmygrad isn’t blocked either. Hexbear doesn’t seem to work. Mastodon.social doesn’t work. It’s probably a matter of whack-a-mole… Which is low priority anyway as everyone on these instances speaks English.

Forgiven

Also very america-centric. Different races are oppressed in different places.

Ephesians 2:8-10

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

1 Peter 2:9-10

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were not a people, but now you are God’s people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

What happened

Zelda is a boy and you play as him

Getting used to China now. Fun fact: Feddit.UK is not blocked here. I can use the fediverse mostly fine. Although thumbnails and images from instances that are blocked (such as lemmy.ml) don’t work, neither do images from BBC articles. But it’s cool. Browsing the internet is interesting, especially in indieweb spaces. Hotlinked images break a lot, anyone relying on google fonts for their site has the font break, and loading times can be slow for some places. I don’t think sites with neocities subdomains work.

VPNs aren’t the most reliable unfortunately. I have two and have to alternate between them. I do not know if it’s a problem with the VPN, or a network thing. I read something about the OpenVPN protocol being blocked on occasion. Most commercial VPNs from western companies are blocked, so I rely on ones I’ve made myself back home. They work 80% of the time.

I’ve also been having wacky dreams that I am back in the UK and have the power to teleport back to China at any time by waking up.

I believe the progress one is less open than the classic six striped

Organic developments of virtue signalling by corpos, I found.

I think you can display two flags- the normal generic pride one and then whatever subgroup you identify with (trans, lesbian, non binary, etc)

It was poorly designed ever since they added the chevrons. The six colour pride flag was already pushing it with having six colours, but it pulled it off well and made it work. But anything else just screws it up.

Personally, I think adding intersex, transgender, black people(???) makes it seem as if they WEREN’T included in the original. I was always under the impression that the 🏳️‍🌈 flag included the whole LGBTQ+ groupings

If you have a religion, shouldn’t it be your entire identity?

Crocs

Now the human needs his protein…

Isn’t this fixable by using bricks instead of alligators?

I remember when everything was so glitchy and broken at first, Jerboa barely worked

Are people actually escaping these detention centres?
