I don't understand. Did we not already have that rule?

It sounds a lot like this is a spectrum related sensory thing.

Yep, the only ones I agree with are licorice and beets. I love oysters, and most fish or sushi. Avocado? Could eat on almost anything. You can take my raw or cooked onions over my dead body. Kale is great when cooked. And lobster is gross? Are you trolling? Truffle???? I'm out, heathens.

The only item I agree with here is black licorice, beets, and the gluten-free bullshit. I would also accept Walnuts, most of the fake milks and artificial sweeteners, too.

Anyone saying you think everyone hates fish and sushi, I feel really bad for you. And I could probably also eat a bacon cheeseburger once or twice a week.

This is plainly untrue. I went through a period of eating lot of salad, and I can think of exactly one with kale.

This is not Landlords, it's big companies who buy up housing.

Well, there's also an apocalypse, right?

Shit, I've see this painting in person multiple times. I think it's in one of the Manhattan museums. And I never asked any of this.

That's what a normal b&b is. A Bed & Breakfast means they make you the breakfast.

I've been reading up on the Salem witch trials for a personal project, and have listened to 3 separate audio books on them (In the Devil's Snare, The Witches, and A Delusion of Satan).

The similarities to today are more than I imagined. But the similarities between Reverend Parris--the original instigator, and the mouthpiece for the trials--and Donald Trump are unreal. Descriptions of both sound pretty much identical. Unlike The Crucible depicts he was not sidelined, or made a reluctant participant.

Description of Parris (2/3 books were released before 2016):

  • Received a large inheritance from his father, but a failed merchant and businessman in both Barbados and New England.
  • Considered charming, well-spoken, and handsome--educated and likely acquainted with the theater. Dropped out of Harvard.
  • His wife, Elizabeth Parris was widely considered one of the most beautiful women in the area.
  • Deeply fixated on status, and compensation. Puritans generally considered material luxuries sinful. Salem Village was an offshoot from Salem Town, of the most pious members, and Parris was the first ordained minster.
  • His hiring, and tenure were deeply divisive, and hiring done behind closed doors. Most communities hired their ministers very openly.
  • some of his biggest supporters was an influential family who made 60 separate accusations, all against political or personal rivals. The father, Thomas Putnam, was involved in hiring him. The 2 girls, Anne and Mercy Lewis, and also Anne Sr. were some of the central afflicted, and they were all highly educated and intelligent enough to manipulate people, and coordinate.
  • Hired with irregular demands, including ownership of the parsonage (minister's home), and an unusually high salary.
  • Constantly feuded with his congregation and named people in sermons. Generally who hadn't contributed, paid respect, or attended church, and who opposed him. There were a lot of sermons.
  • Encouraged feuds and factions even before 1692, and actively stoked fears and paranoia during the accusations, hearings, and trials.
  • Granted irregular legal powers and authority to make arrests by the Governor. Supported the use of spectral evidence (ghost stories).
  • Never admitted any fault.

Have you tried changing the gravitational constant of the universe, thereby altering the mass of the onions?

...right? Hence the admonishment for giving wrong instructions. I'm confused.

 

The draggable cursor has been getting stuck on the span mode, and refuses to go back to the single cursor no matter where you tap. Sometimes the end even gets stuck at the end of the whole comment text, and can't be moved to span a single character, unless it's the last one. Sometimes it works fine, but usually not. It does usually seem to go back to normal if you cancel, and re-edit.

 

I get why they couldn't have Odo transforming into a bear all the time, but this would mainly just be another actor, and I'd say his potential feels a bit wasted.

 

Apologies if this is the 30th Marvel prompt this month.

And if this a bit too specific a prompt, feel free to make it:
"Thanos snaps. As Bruce disintegrates and the plume clears, Hulk is left staring back."

 

I'm not finding anything about this with searches, and the Google AI is like the dumbest kid on the short bus, so I'm turning here.

I have the OS Application Style set to 'Oxygen' which supposedly displays a full No Bullshit scrollbar. With arrows and everything, like in the old days, so I can just click the button, and the fucking page will scroll.

This setting is not changing any applications' scroll bars, nor is any other style. I'm using Libre Writer for something more than 2 pages, and if I have to grab the invisible scroll bar to drag it up and down manually any longer, I am going to lose my goddamn mind. This has possibly already happened.

I've looked at every possible setting. There's nothing about how the scroll bar is displayed, and again, it's every app. So please, for the love of God, someone tell me how to force full scrollbars on installed applications.

 

The story takes place in Salem, MA, during the Witch Trials. The scene is a 100% fictional inquisition by the non-fictional Reverend Parris of Salem Village.

As you may gather, I like to have some fun with the dialogue here and there. Link is below.

It seems to happen after making a comment. Going back to the main app, and then everything is on a grey bg inset over the regular black background. This never occurred until 2 or 3 days ago.

 

If Beverly had sedated Jean Luc during Sarek, or if a meld were initiated on an already unconscious person? Is this ever touched on in universe or extended universe?

 

I had on a documentary about the Salem Witch Trials. A book or movie about a witch witnessing all this in secret would be interesting, I thought. But searching isn't turning up anything, which surprises me. So I turn to you, Lemmy. Do you have the story I seek?

Pictures, or no pictures, or moving pictures are all cool.

I'm just curious. I've tried searching, and I'm really not finding anything. I had on a documentary, and just thought a book about a magic woman or women, secretly witnessing the hysteria woud be neat. Benevolently, or malevolenty. I'd accept short stories, film or comics, or whatever.

 
 

Aside from clearly being a smart investigative reporter, or intern at least, and no one questioning Clark's absence in the T-Craft. Clark says their first date was 3 months ago while cooking dinner breakfast (conveniently the only period skipped in the intro timeline), and presumably Lois is dating Clark, not having ice cream and seeing movies with Superman. AND then Jimmy straight-faced says at the end Lois and Superman have been hooking up for 3 months. Jimmy knew the entire time.
