And that pony semen is allowed to be in your throat swab now.

The short answer is, it’s complicated. The long answer is that people are trying to build large net short positions while not spooking the bag holders.

Shut the fuck up, Donny!

I read an article from the Bosnia war, and someone who lived through it said the currencies were, in order of importance: lighters, batteries, ammunition, food.

Mine are teens now, here are a few pointers:

Let them help with the dishes/garbage/sweeping. I know they’ll make a bigger mess now, but in a few years they take well to chores.

When they start asking questions, always treat them with respect like they’re a smart person who’s missing a chunk of knowledge.

How you respond to falls and failures shapes their lives. When they fall, ask if they need help up. If they ask if it’s okay, say it’s going to be okay. When they mess up, ask if they can help you clean up without going into blame, other than discussing how to avoid that in the future.

Imagine if a great artist had some notebook sketches, and his son finger-painted all over them and then tried to sell them.

I’ve always loved the dimples in hard tack, I assume it’s so the weevils can feel like they live in apartment buildings.

Would one of those “Hate is not welcome here” signs prevent them from entering, or does that depend on if the vampire hates their victim? I don’t hate the cow in my cheeseburger, so I’m guessing not.

You need a defense from a SAM man.

Why dream when it can be recorded for you!

Let’s end this argument by you telling us where your line is on what people are allowed to steal to survive. Because that’s all this argument is about.

I’ve never seen anyone steal food, and I never will. Diapers either.

Yeah, how much did you lose?

A flower would also be acceptable.

That’s not what your mom said.

This must be that non-consensual himdie I keep hearing about.

Contact the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and they can probably help point him to a group interested.

That’s ridiculous, that would lead to mass unemployment in the funeral industry.

Small typo, it’s “half of a Chihuahua.”

For the military, think about Amazon. They can get you a new dildo tomorrow because they have a huge infrastructure of warehouses around the country. The US has a world network of “supplies” for war that will be reduced and create more risk and a time delay if US interests are threatened. In practical terms, you don’t punch an American because America can punch you back tomorrow. If the US maybe can punch you back next week, you’re less concerned with ignoring their interests.

Practically, the local economies will hurt badly, like the Philippines after they reduced the US navel presence. There is also a “living next to a cop” effect that has had more value in the past, but has soured like the idea of living next to a cop.

For the US, we would now need to house all these troops locally, and would end up greatly reducing force size over 20 years. A big pile of active tanks training in Germany doesn’t get much news, but a bunch of expensive tanks training next to a huge line at a soup kitchen is a great photo op.
