I dunno, if the vaccine was "safe," and it really comes down to will this stop me getting a cold, I'd take one for the team. Maybe not the flu or COVID, although COVID never affected me so maybe I wouldn't be a good candidate.

We just need an island of clones that we can test on, because clones aren't real!

The CD's (singular) tracks and the CDs' (plural) tracks. Or would it be CD's'? That's my one gripe with putting the apostrophe s for acronyms.

But then when talking about someone getting "all As" in school, it's easy there to realize what's being said, but when someone asks "What grades did you get in school?" And you respond "As," now it's just the word as.

Grammarizing spoken word is a major part of my job and I think about this shit all the time, and sometimes things conflict, and it's dumb, it's all dumb! That's it!

I'm currently listening to them, on book 11, whatever it's called. Read them all a few years back. My problem is I have a difficult time placing things in one book or another, so despite being in the midst of it, I can't discuss anything with you!

Yeah, consistently the best place to live, but let em hate.

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

Avoid it, because it was so good.

Yeah, I'm 38 and remember red pistachios. Also remember finding some sort of worm thing burrowed into one of those red pistachios, while I was sitting at my grandfather's kitchen table eating pistachios. Didn't stop me. Well, it stopped me from eating that one. But I'm always leery if a pistachio has a hole in it.

I've never made a set amount of money, so I've never really budgeted. I know how much I need to survive month to month, I keep a buffer in a checking account, a large bugger in a HYSA, and then I kinda just do. I've been 1099 my entire adult life and so I've had months where I'm flush and months where I'm scraping by. I'm a little older now so it's less of her scraping by fortunately.

I've sat through a lot of depositions in employment cases, and the best thing a potential plaintiff can do is maintain documents and a timeline.

But yeah, this email by itself is nothing. Personally, a simple "Thanks, Brenda" would've been my response, because it leaves a lot to interpretation.

Yeah, agree with everything you said. I let my kids play Roblox. I play with them sometimes, been playing some silly Shawarma game, it freaks them out.

So far, the biggest thing we talk about is this desire of every game to enter your wallet, and I tell them that a game shouldn't be asking you for money, and now they both get annoyed at games that ask for money. I like to think I've created a safe environment for them to play in, and when the environment becomes something else, they ask me about it.

So mainly right now the worst that happens is the game is bullshit and they get mad, and I say hey, this game is bullshit (in more PG language), and we move on.

I firmly believe that prohibition just leads to curiosity. I think it's impossible to insulate them from shit these days, so I'll be part of their exposure, and hopefully I can help them learn.

It definitely is, dunno why I threw withdrawal out. Maybe overdose is what I was looking for, but it was time to get the kids to school. Haste makes waste, as my mom used to say.

Lightheadedness, nausea, and vomiting are common side effects of nicotine withdrawal, which is a low bar for the nicotine naive.

I recall, when I was at the School of Infantry after boot camp, one of our instructors told a kid he could get off firewatch if he survived the entire class with a dip in his lip. Kid said ezpz, give it to me. Instructor doles him out some cope long, kid puts it in, and the instructor immediately rolls the garbage can right up under his chin and says you're gonna need this. And like five minutes later he did.

I've never liked the nicotine "high," so I'm fortunate.

Exact same scenario. In fact, been looking at the 9a lately, waiting for the perfect deal, because I do constantly worry about my 2FA stuff being stuck on a broken phone.

 

Second single coming off what's presumably a new album coming. Everything these guys put out is great. When I first heard them, I said they scratched the ETID itch for me, and this single continues to do so.

 

First song I heard from these dudes, and they have a very unique take on Metalcore. Almost a dash of singer-songwriter in there. They've got other tunes that also have a unique electronic flair, but I'd love to hear more like this.

 

A technical disaster, but sure, I'll keep coming back. Can't wait to reminisce about the days when it was a technical disaster, though.

Also, posted from my PC, because doing anything on Jerboa has proven impossible.

 

Love to see it, and I want to see more of it. Anyone who did this absolutely deserves what they have coming to them.
