Uh, dude. No one is saying that the FBI didn’t seize the domain, but go look for yourself whether they have turdy little pictures of how they are spending the money.

Because even the worst of bureaucracy employees isn’t going to put “this is how [russian cybercriminals] are spending [money]” and place some absolutely weird pictures of a small and cheap house next to a pond, a small and cheap trailer being pulled in snow, a relatively nice but middle-class affordable boat in a swamp, and a family of four by a pool.

By definition of concubine, sure, but consensual is a far cry for most. I’m trying to remember the exact quote, but I’ll paraphrase it here: ‘In slave-owning societies, the vast majority of concubines were slaves.’ https://archive.org/details/historicaldictio0000klei for the source.

I thought ice cream (and a lot of other thing in the ads) was usually mashed potatoes.

I don’t understand people who would vote based on polls. I’m not taking the chance the poll is wrong, I’m not taking the chance that the poll is right. I’m going to go vote. Even if I was in the 20% section of a poll, I’m pulling the lever.

It’s an old term for a pleasure slave.

‘Demonrats’ is usually what I hear, and it’s about as far from clever as Albuquerque is from India.

Nobody touches my cello. The last person who did staved in the side.

I mean, #1, yes, but #2? Eeeeeeh…

Okay, when did mansplaining change from overexplaining something simple because the listener isn’t a man to just explaining things in a horrendously incorrect manner?

This isn’t mansplaining, this is just being a massive christian dumbass.

It’s great, don’t look up any advice or guides. Everything can be found by exploring; they put the stuff you need right in your face and it’s a relatively small map.

It’s actually going to be great for you. When I was still more interested in eye surgeries, there was a special substance that was used on the patient to keep the eyes open. It’s still in some hospitals. What is it? Near-100% pure cocaine, baby!

You should know what category you fall into… It’s not like getting banned and going somewhere else is an event chain you wouldn’t know about.

The peroxide didn’t work for me once the wax became impacted. Maybe if I had repeated it several times in the course of a day, but it was easier to just repeat the trip to the doctor to have them get it out. Losing your hearing absolutely sucks, and I didn’t want to delay getting it back.

I don’t know, man, I think I could last an hour, maybe even two, before all the skin fell off. Even with the best lube, you’re gonna do some damage for 720 hours straight.

Those two in particular are in Beaumont, a particularly ass-backwards area of the state. One of its satellite cities, Vidor, is talked about even in Texas as being vitriolic in their racism. I’ve also been inside both of those hospitals’ emergency rooms, and wouldn’t want to be there if my life depended on it.

Heh, there was a guy in my purview yesterday whose costume was Guts. Nice recollection you’ve summoned up.

It’s much, much quicker, simpler, and easier to reach into the ear canal and gently scrape out the wax. The few times I used any fluid, it was a tiresome affair, and it never really got out all of the wax that could start to build. You would have to do it every other day to prevent real buildup, and that would be a gigantic pain.

I remember Sandy Hook. I was working in a primary school at the time and helped harden in the pointless ways we actually could. And, like, I get that, but it isn’t the whole society. We haven’t gotten to the point where rule of law actually disintegrates. As bad as that is, I fear for true war from one side against the other(s), where we will see everyone pull out weapons and hold them to the heads of the other side in order to get their way, blast away at those they see as other… not just use laws to slowly strangle the ideas of self-autonomy and democracy.

I have the same experience, generally. It will definitely have a lot of room to wiggle around, depending on the particular gun’s characteristics, the bullet’s characteristics, and even the surrounding environment. If you read the wikipedia on it, you’ll even see a section complaining about how measured dB levels are nearly useless if the distance from the source isn’t measured. A lawn mower across the street isn’t such a big deal, but the one pushing it should have hearing protection.
