In at least one of these cases I think what happened is the computer showed only a single missile and the officer recognized that there wasn’t any case where the Americans would launch one missile. Doctrine said to retaliate but the guy was all "nah, this is a glitch or something, if it was the real thing there’d be hundreds or thousands of missiles, not one.

That does really seem to be what they think. That people who live in cities are orcs or something and don’t count.

They tend to have completely bizarre perceptions of what city life is like, too. Like I haven’t been in any gunfights today and I haven’t had to fight off looters either.

I think that’s ultimately what this whole stupid map area thing is - whatever demographics they think live in cities, they’re saying that those groups of people aren’t " real americans" and shouldn’t be accorded the rights of citizens.

Oh god, i remember her. Lady, 1.) No, and 2.) You will literally die

Though, i guess a lot of the dead could technically conset if they didn’t just murder you? Idfk, tamriel is weird.

What is it with everyone in government shilling for turkey, specifically?

Every single ipcc report has drastically under-estimated both the amount of heatig and the rate at which heating is accelerating.

Samsies. I almost never do iron man bc it’s so easy to lose it all to a bug or internet hiccup.

Depending on the writer Latveria has the highest standard of living in Europe, everyone there loves Doom, and it’s often the only place that doesn’t get wrecked by whatever the crisis of the week is.

Is it real? I would believe damn near anything about adams.

I think you would want to contact the county clerk for information. Or you could go to the county courthouse, explain what’s going on, and ask for help. Actually going to the courthouse and seeing if they have a front desk might be the best way to go. There ought to be online postings of pending cases, but who knows with counties.

Met a typical American voter. “Lifelong conservative” and we spent an hour talking about what a bastard trump is, how we’ve made progress on racial oppression but there’s a long way to go, about Suharto’s dictatorship, and how great it is to have immigrant communities and how important they are to the fabric of America, and how the gop is a band of scoundrels who say one thing and do another.

Dude’s basically a bernie bro. Murica. To his credit, the way he was telling it Trump got him re-examining a lot of his beliefs, going back over his past, plugging in new information. Talking with him was a nice reminder that people can change, and even Americans can learn.

I figure you could never do justice to the Sillmarillion with a straight telling. It’s just too much, it’s too far beyond human scope. Doing it as a high school musical would bring it down to a human scale, while still having space for high drama.

I have several friends who do. They’re very aesthetic.

Hahahah

Ahh, well, nevertheless.

Friend, you have brought the people here so much joy and wisdom. My life, and the lives of many others, has been made richer and more joyful by your humor, your insights, your companionship.

I’m sorry you’re feeling so badly. It’s awful not being able to live the image of who you think you should be. It’s awful to be dependent on someone who does not appreciate or respect you. You deserve better than this and I hope you will have it.

Pleased to announce that i have begun my great work: The Valinor Highschool Theatre Program Presents: The Musical of the Ainur

Set in the Halls of Valinor Highschool it tells the story of the creation of the world through the musical of the Ainur. Important characters include prodigy guitarist and arrogant metalhead Melkor, scrawny but intelligent science team nerd Manwe, green thumb and leader of the 4H program Yavanna, and Aule, the best student V High’s auto repair elective has ever seen.

Here’s a line from act ii; Tulkas enters stage left wearing his wrestling unitard. Tulkas: “Melkor! Cease your wrath and destruction! I have come to contain you! I am Tulkas, Captain of the Wrestling team!”

Yes

Also, lotteries are horrid and seeing them used to fund basic state functions makes me gag.

Was thinking about how dems firmly believe in human rights as long as they’re not the ones holding the lash.
