My wife did the shopping for some of the bigger ticket stuff, I did the stocking stuff (which included some fun toys), I did most of the wrapping but it probably would’ve been more even split if she didn’t have a chronic disease sapping her energy.
I thought it was analogous to the DSA’s use of the rose as a general socialist symbol. The wilting is poignant in that context.
Isn’t the balkanization of the US explicitly part of Russia’s goal, and establishment of city-states (or CityCorps) the explicit goal of the dark enlightenment types that Peter Thiel is backing?
And 30 years after LASIK, you’d be incredibly lucky if your eyes hadn’t gotten worse to the point you’d need glasses anyway.
That would take them recognizing her as a woman, which I hope they do but don’t think they will with their current base of support.
It’s called a skeuomorph, and many times the camera symbol is one too, as most modern cameras don’t look like that.
What do you mean? The sun gets chased away every night, though I think that gets outsourced to Sköll, a wolf.
Sounds painful with a high possibility of breaking bones then drowning while conscious. I’d recommend an inert gas that’s not CO2 and readily available, like nitrogen or something (CO2 buildup in the blood is what gives the sensation of suffocation). If you’re worried about people finding you and a mess, get an enema and stay a bit dehydrated first, and also ensure your body’s found within the first 2-3 days if possible (the first thing your corpse does is shit itself, and rot sets in pretty quickly).
This of course presumes you’re making the decision to end yourself while of sound mind, not in some panic, feeling trapped or completely hopeless. There’s usually a way out that’s not as permanent and can lead to future positive interactions that make continued living worth the pain. That said, I’ll never judge someone whose pain outweighs their will to live.
37 is my favorite, because 3x7x37=777 (three sevens), and I think that’s neat.
Just use ISO 8601, it’s pretty much designed for this.
Reminds me of a tweet I saw once:
Unlike you jaded pessimists I still have the ability to feel optimistic about something even after a lifetime of disappointment. And you know why? Because I’m stupid.
Very good point, my bad.
The only other fast way to fight it is with violence, but without clear national unity and already decent leadership it usually results in some form of autocracy, making the situation worse.
Edit: violent revolution* usually doesn’t work, but violence itself can be rather effective
Most of the time I don’t even write, I type or use swipe-to-text.
I believe it’s 32 bytes, but it depends on the AP, some use a null terminator as the final byte.

Maybe Danny Phantom should be more open to the possibility of traumatized ghosts.
And at least in the US ADD is no longer a thing and hasn’t been for a while, having been subsumed into the ADHD diagnosis, which can be inattentive, hyperactive, or combined.
I think it might be a good idea to tax loans like this as income, but I’m not an economist and am not sure what the follow on effects would be. I feel like if there were exceptions it might be used as a loophole, but if there aren’t it might affect poorer people trying to get loans for housing.
