I enjoy not getting shot in the head, thanks.

We're very quickly running out of options though.

It's been Xitter (pronounced "Shitter") since the rebranding

I find it offensive that the only effective way to combat this is to fight fire with fire and also make a big bitchy noise about this like the conservatives love to do. I have better things I would rather be doing with my life. But such are the times we live in I suppose.

This gives me a 404.

I should probably be thankful for this.

No, but he did stand near a fryer long enough to get his photo taken once.

Been seeing some of that as well, so I looked it up myself. The actual text of the EULA states:

"You acknowledge that if you fail to comply with the foregoing restrictions Nintendo may render the Nintendo Account Services and/or the applicable Nintendo device permanently unusable in whole or in part.”

That's a brick. They haven't actually done it to anyone yet, but they've reserved their rights.

Not to mention if these fuckers weren't making it so goddamn difficult to get GA surgery, then maybe she wouldn't have had to have been hanging dong in the locker room. I am quite confident that's not something she does because she wants to.

Of which, roughly speaking about 23% are under 18 and school-aged if census.gov is to be trusted

Around $40 per student could still do an incredible amount of good across our national school system. A given school's graduating class might range anywhere from 50-2,000 students and you'll have 3-4 of those per school. That's potentially $320,000 for a single large school by this napkin math assuming those funds are distributed perfectly evenly according to student population. If put to more strategic use this could be an incredible boon to lower income schools in many, many areas.

Honestly, even if the government did attempt to regulate them, what's to stop MasterCard & Co from just telling them "no"? What are they going to do, shut down the credit card processors in America? The entire economy requires those to function. They've made themselves into a required part of the way the country operates on a day to day basis. If you turn off the debit and credit cards of all American citizens then 99.99% of all commerce grinds to a screeching halt instantly. Some people will have, or be able to get, cash money and make do with that in the meantime but many many more will not. I imagine crypto might become a more legitimate market in this situation, because otherwise you just straight up can't buy things online anymore. But how you obtain crypto from cash money, I could not tell you. I imagine it looks like a shady drug deal involving a USB drive.

Especially in the modern political climate I could easily see our government trying to say "you can't do that" and then Visa/MasterCard just respond "yes we can" and then yes, in fact they can, no matter what "that" is today, because any tangible threat to them will also crash the national economy.

Even run flats aren't going to take you very far if they're missing their valve core, which is easily accessible from the outside of the vehicle

I think God made his position clear in the first term, when the sky turned blood red and rained ashes while a deadly plague ripped through the streets of America.

This one is on us
