And an intimate scene of Dafydd and Maeril. She's topless, but it's not hugely explicit (not even eye contact!)

Although, having known enough real world people living in the very non-cyberpunk 1990s Wales who had a special prosthetic for formal occasions, It made absolute sense that Maeril has a sexy arm for date night.

What to do if bullying? Try consistent boundaries

1. do not writhe or waver. (Movement attracts the bully)
2. do not attempt to appease. (Any offer is interpreted as weakness and obtains thrust)
3. flee to a safe position that you could hold with support
4. then stand still. Set limits on how others treat you. Affirm boundaries (The bully will redirect attacks eventually)
5. connect: turn to a trusted person, reach out only to someone you feel well about
6. offer backing, foster, become accomplice, enjoy

"Part of the app’s appeal is its #intimate feel. Users enjoy a unique measure of control on #WhatsApp: It is easy to block contacts, mute other users, exit groups, and hide one’s online status. Unlike Facebook and Instagram, WhatsApp doesn’t display ads in personal chats nor bombard users with targeted suggestions."
The main force behind it's cultural appeal in #Brazil is #zeroRating by Telecoms. Where is #netneutrality?
