For a person to be in the position depicted the word would have had to be “sa” which I don’t believe is a word. But you can play words that aren’t words in Scrabble as long as no one challenges you. But it’s also an incredibly bad choice of a word, setting up an opponent for a triple like that.

Or stronger notions of what body types are compatible with the gender role they perceive.
Edited to clarify it’s what they perceive as their gender role. Ie the sexist notion that “it’s the duty of a husband to be strong, and the duty of a wife to be dainty”
On food, write the expiration date with a big magic marker as a reminder to use them.
If it’s something from the freezer(and the expiry is now useless) write the date you thawed/ opened it.
If you live with someone else (who may need to open the door) put it (or a reminder) in (or on) your shoes.
I understand your anger and agree that anti-vaxxers are stupid. I believe public health education should be part of the school system.
I also agree that it’s responsible for a society to impose reasonable restrictions on members that endanger it.
I think people do have an ethical obligation to take reasonable precautions avoid potentially exposing others to pathogens. Vaccination is an example of reasonable precaution. People have the right to bodily autonomy, do not vaccinate them against their wishes.
I do not support the firing of workers for refusing vaccinations if they can do their job remotely. People shouldn’t have to decide between their religious beliefs and employment if their employment doesn’t bring them into contact with others. (Imo anti-vaxx is essentially a religion, this may say more about my beliefs regarding religion than about anti-vaxx sentiment).
By all means exclude the unvaccinated from places where they can be reasonably understood to endanger the public, or others that have a similar right to be there.
I have yet to see an electric vehicle fire, even on the news.
100% and you know the first time it happens is going to be super covered too because of the potential for “controversy”.
I’m like this for most things except for cleaning the kitchen. It’s essential to know she’s counting on me, but if she’s actually there I can’t do anything. It could have something to do with the layout of our kitchen (she has to stand behind me if I’m washing dishes).
If she was working on something at the table I could probably ignore her and focus on cleaning, but if she’s trying to clean too, I can’t.
This was anti sinovac because the Chinese vaccine wouldn’t have chips in it, pentagon wanted Phillipines to get American vaccines with mind control chips…
Not my belief but pretty easy to see how they’d deal with it.
Re: popular support for the war amongst Ukrainians in Ukraine: yeah we can’t really know, and of course they can’t have an election.
Re: zelensky’s attitude: I do think that the ‘never surrender’ approach is actually a very useful negotiation tactic and I don’t know how you’d get people to fight at all if you tell them their just fighting for slightly better terms in a treaty…
So if Mark (believed to be the oldest Gospel IIRC) was like 20 when Jesus died, and then ~100 years later his story was written down. He was writing it down when he was 120? Seems more likely that Mark’s 3rd generation students wrote it down after they realized that nobody had even second hand accounts of what had happened. Right? Mark had a mixture of first hand (things he saw) and second hand (things he heard about from people that saw them) accounts, his direct pupils had second & third hand accounts (things Mark told them, and they learned through correspondence with other Christian witnesses), but after 100 years those guys are dying too.
How do they compile all the teachings they’ve received? How much of what they were taught was Mark and how much was Jesus?
It seems like not a good way to get the message out…
Jesus died so that whosoever believeth in him shall not die but shall have ever lasting life… but don’t worry about like writing any of this down or anything for like 100 years. What does it mean to believe in him? I think that’s clear enough, we don’t need to elaborate.
I hear what you’re saying, but I think that as a human that thinks that democracy and human rights are like pretty important, it’s hard for me not to support the people I see opposing a system like Russia’s.
And yeah I get that Ukraine’s democracy has problems, and Russia is probably not as bad as western media would have us believe, but I can’t believe I’m so deceived that democracies shouldn’t resist imperial aggression.
It sucks that ordinary people get their lives destroyed, but we should blame Russia, and support Ukrainians in resisting.
And yeah I know you didn’t say we shouldn’t, and yeah of course a lot of Ukrainians want the war to just end. I don’t know, it seems like lots still aren’t ready to give up.
My understanding of the comic is:
The complainer is holding a MAGA hat so extrapolating that he actually is a MAGAT, he is letting the mask slip and admitting that MAGARepublicans are fascists, and people willing to vote for Biden are opposed to fascism.
Is it your position that people willing to vote for Biden are fascists?
I live in Vancouver but didn’t grow up here. I know of the 88->HH dog whistle, and um 14 words or something like that but are there any others I ought to keep my kids away from?
Any idiot can build a bridge that stands, but it takes an engineer to build a bridge that barely stands.
Oof.
In the defense of engineers, they are usually trying to optimize around a few more variables than ability to stand. Cost is a big one.
If a car has a warranty of 10 years, it will last 11 years.
…If it’s well engineered.
I’ve had lots of led bulbs die. I think it’s because I bought them at the dollar store.
Height is such a bad thing to filter based on.
My wife’s best friend was complaining about how she goes on lots of dates but there’s never a real connection. She is a little taller than average but insisted she needed a guy at least 6’2" (so he would be at least X" taller than her when she was wearing X" heels).
That’s just a terrible priority if you want a real connection.
Because you want to have to tilt your head up at least 20° (?) to kiss while wearing high heels, you’re willing to eliminate 95% of bachelors? Have you considered the logistics of kissing while you’re not wearing high heels?
But the criterion was like a point of pride for her, like her ego wouldn’t allow her to look for someone less than 6’2". Super weird. Just not a good way to find a partner.
Would it be too optimistic for me hope for him to be sentenced to one day in jail, and 1 year house arrest?
they aren’t just going to out themselves as pedophiles
Of course not, that’s why I asked if you had evidence.
The US hosts more CSAM than any other country in the world
I think it might be more accurate to say that the US has detected more CSAM within its borders than any other nation.
Also, I reckon that the US also has more web hosting generally than any other country in the world (36% of global webhosting).
I think what you’re perceiving as reluctance to prosecute Jared Fogle is actually reluctance to bungle a prosecution by being hasty. Just like many people are frustrated with how long it has taken for Donald Trump to see any consequences, it takes time to assemble evidence to form an airtight case.
I think the fact that Epstein was able to kill himself while in jail is much more compelling evidence that there is at least one very powerful pedophile. But how can we figure out who it is? Do you have any specific evidence that would help with that?
You’re saying that the potential for the economic development of historically exploited colonies under Biden is a more grave risk than the potential end of democracy in America under Trump?
Trump did a lot to alienate allies too, way more than Biden has a far as I know. You really are clueless.
I have a buddy with adhd and he’s also a musician.
He forgot he had to make a music video.
Not like he really ought to make one to market himself. He is contractually obligated to make a music video and he forgot… well he forgot until it was just barely possible if everything went smoothly and he ran himself ragged.
