I'm definitely over 10 years old

How long food lasts in a fridge will also depend on your climate, cooling speed (as mentioned elsewhere), fridge cleanliness, and how much you use your fridge.

Keeping everything covered with lids/clingfilm and/or everything vegetarian/vegan will also prolong fridge life. Keeping out ethylene (bananas, apples) from your fridge also helps.

I just had a soup batch in a few covered jars stay good for 9 days. In summertime things sometimes go bad in a single day.

The best measure is your own senses, if the food smells or looks bad, it probably is. And even then you can sometimes recook it (wilted vegetables can often be used in soup, stew, or even pie), especially if you catch it early.

Also here's a neat summary with some other tips and tricks.

I was assuming the help of a speech/ghost writer, as he did in his presidential days

Only if he manages to write a manifesto, I'm not sure Trump can write anything coherent longer than 140 characters.

Transvestitism is a name for cross dressing, it is unclear how much of that is related to gender identity, and how much is sexuality, as well as how big the overlap is when you weren't allowed to be transsexual.

What we're talking about here is transsexuality, which roughly means not being of the gender you were assigned at birth. The name came before we had a widespread discourse that sex and gender are fundamentally different things.

Sexuality develops at around the age of 6-8, body and self identity starts a couple years before then.

I'm not a child psychologist, but I'd make a guess that trans realisation in children are rare before the age of 3, but after that are mostly a question of maturity, support of environment, and how harsh social norms are.

Also, aren't you still legally a child up to the age of 18? I'm pretty sure I've heard that sexuality and identity develop before then.

Oh, and in case you missed that part, trans isn't about sexuality, it's about identity; fitting in your own body, in your presentation of yourself, in how you are treated by others. Sexuality is it's own separate beast, especially with all the stigma about it.

Is it? That bit seems the least outlandish, I'd guess that happens regularly to people in power and/or with a litigious streak.

But the issue is not with the AI tool, it's with the human wielding it for their own purposes which we find questionable.

Consent.

You might be fine with having erotic materials made of your likeness, and maybe even of your partners, parents, and children. But shouldn't they have right not to be objectified as wank material?

I partly agree with you though, it's interesting that making an image is so much more troubling than having a fantasy of them. My thinking is that it is external, real, and thus more permanent even if it wouldn't be saved, lost, hacked, sold, used for defamation and/or just shared.

What? Most religious dogma is predicated upon free will, meaning we are capable of rearranging things according to our own machinations.

It would be like bacteria in a petri dish reorganising and reproducing, but it's still creation in a sense separated from the creator.

Not really true, it's part of religious shame propaganda in 12 step programs to make you more susceptible to conversion.

Might be effective in the short term, but has many other negative psychological effects.

Secular rehab programs are equally or more effective, and require no such shame or disempowerment.
