Yeah I’m at 9 if you follow Jewish rules of adultery (everyone was on board, but I have slept with people who are married to someone else). 8 if you don’t respect intellectual property. But also I’m a pagan, so these aren’t my religious rules.
Baphomet is commonly believed to be demonic in folk Christianity. If you want to be really annoyed read LaVey’s Infernal Names
Fuck yeah go Hungary!
She’s a young teen. Maybe she’s aroace, maybe she’s a late bloomer
I’ll add that adding distance is the only thing he can do that has a possibility of changing his parents
Oh, Cuba resisting foreign imperialism even when suffering to do so? Who ever saw that coming aside from everyone who’s heard literally anything about Cuba‽
You can still make coal, it just involves bogs hostile to decomposers these days
A lot of things are older than furniture. Furniture dates to the pleistocene at the earliest.
Ok really 2 halves (Europe and Africa) and a whole (South America).
If a Christian is neither catholic nor orthodox they’re protestant unless they’re in some small middle eastern sect that predates all that
Catholics in America are mid schism and form two voting blocks. But yes, protestants are even more divided
American catholicism has been on the verge of schism for years. The anti woke side hates Leo, the other side is proud of him, but were also proud of Francis. They (we at the time) were proud to have a pope from our hemisphere and one intent on reform and fighting the far right faction. It’s hard for American Catholics of any stripe to be proud for the past few years given the archbishop being excommunicated over schismatism and the fact that that’s not even close to resolved.
Yeah, but at least two are opus dei, which will gladly oppose the pope if they feel he’s in their way.
Well, they’re clearly aware enough to feel threatened by it, given that that’s all the power the Vatican holds
Because it requires a lot of biological investment to eat it. It’s rough on teeth and requires rumination or similar calorically expensive techniques to extract much nutrition. We evolved in the opposite path and optimized heavily for easily digested foods. We then take it a step further and cook them breaking the difficult to digest parts into an easer to digest form.
Also we do eat grasses, but only their seeds and fruits. Wheat, maize, rice, and bananas are all grasses
Yeah, the advocate tends to include when a person is gay even when irrelevant to the issue because it’s relevant to the purpose of the publication.
It was a compliment. It means hippie, but more on the “let’s take care of nature and each other” side of it.
Also I really need to start dragging my wife to asl classes, because I’m going deaf
Ok but high speed rail isn’t for connecting you to New Orleans, it’s more for connecting New Orleans to Chicago.
We’re unlikely to wind up as train connected as Japan, but let’s look at the shinkansen. It goes between major population centers and sometimes stops at decent sized cities on the way. When I had to go to a smaller town in Japan I took high speed rail from Tokyo to the nearest major city, then I took their local rail to a town, then another line to the place I was going.
For comparison this is the equivalent of flying into New York from Europe, taking high speed rail to Chicago, taking an Illinois rail network to Peoria, then taking it again to say Lincoln. Northeastern states have the rail network to do that last mile stuff. But even just having the ability to drive into your nearest city and take a high speed rail to a city your friends live in or that you want to vacation or do business in would be huge. That’s why the main proposals for high speed rail are to connect New York to Chicago or San Diego to Seattle. The latter would make it convenient to go from any major city on the west coast to any other one, even if you have to take BART or a bus or whatever first and last mile transit you need to get there
Weird for a devout catholic, but I wasn’t going to stop him
It’s a dish meant for vibes based cooking
