The hardest part to believe is that he would wipe his own ass.

The big caveat is that the BIOS must allow it, and most released versions do not.

Related, many small(-ish) bars have a stage for live music on Friday/Saturday. There may not be enough seating for those nights, and there’s little/no standing room, so people randomly share tables. From there, you strike up conversation with other fans.

Find the small places where they advertise the bands by name, and make sure they aren’t just cover bands. Irish pubs have been lucky for me, but there’s another place near me that regularly has jam bands.

It says “No kings”. We’re allowed to have one.

That’s part of the strategy. First, go after the small project that can’t defend itself. Use that to set a precedent that is harder for the bigger targets to overturn.

I would expect the bigger players to get themselves involved in the defense for exactly that reason.

Of note, Kirsten Gillibrand was on the ballot for a different seat. My guess is that it means something was calling the wrong database table (Senate candidates instead of presidential candidates). This could’ve been while casting votes, counting votes, or reporting results.

It doesn’t make it any less concerning for our democracy, but it’s a lot easier to explain how it happened.

Uber and the like have specific warnings about that, too. Of course, you can just ignore them and say you’re going to see someone else that’s in the ER.

You should take the hint.

Serious question: why would more visibility keep it safer? Israel continues to commit far worse crimes against humanity, very openly, on a daily basis. Why would this be any different?

You’ve already asked yourself what’s the worst that can happen. Now ask her what she thinks is the worst that can happen, and what she thinks would actually happen. Do not correct her or interrupt, and only ask probing questions so that you can better understand.

I promise you that her answers are not the same as yours.

Not OP, but mildly controversial was his movie Red State. It was a not-so-subtle take on the Westboro Baptist Church and their stance on gays.

Or maybe they’re still upset about Jersey Girl, which was way too common and wholesome for the guy behind Jay and Silent Bob.

(Hot take: if Jersey Girl didn’t have Smith or Carlin, it would’ve been mildly praised at the time and then mostly forgotten)

Correct about the greens. They used to be (might still be) the ones that ran at a lower RPM

I’m sure the history is that, for most daily purposes, it was useful to know both. Knowing the larger element (the month) first sets the context for the smaller detail. For instance, saying I met someone for dinner on December 12 gives you the broader context (e.g. the season, possible relevant events) before the smaller detail of the day.

This is full of weasel words. Here are just the ones that stood out to me:

• “Censorship”, which is just “free speech” with makeup.
• “Regular people”, implying that anyone disagreeing with you isn’t regular
• “Hysteria”
• “How bad things (are)”
• And of course, “trans agenda”

Everyone believes you are asking in bad faith, because it’s clear that you are.

(And as always, XKCD 1357 applies)

Certain types and situations of diabetes can be effectively controlled with a low (usually very low; ketogenic) carb diet and careful weight management. It doesn’t apply to all or even most situations, which is why we use insulin.

The only thing I want to add is that AA is not the only option, nor even the most effective one. But it is the one with the lowest barrier to entry - you just look up where a meeting is, and you show up. No charge or anything.

However, if AA doesn’t help (and there are plenty of people where it doesn’t), there are a bunch of other options. Some are very casual group support events (but with a licensed counselor), all the way to in-patient clinics, and everything in between.

That would need to be affirmed by the courts to matter.

If the rule of law still matters, here is the process:

1. Judiciary does a thing
2. Someone harmed by it (i.e. someone with standing, possibly the trump admin) files a suit
3. Court agrees with the plaintiff
4. Appeals court declines to hear or agrees with plaintiff
5. SCOTUS does the same

Now, the plaintiff can also appeal, and they get an injunction by showing immediate and irreparable harm. But generally, the actions can continue while the appeal is pending.

This is understandably vague. Other people have mentioned the US FBI, but there’s also the NCMEC and IWF. If this is a professional-looking work, you may want to engage the studio’s compliance office. There are a number of very young-looking performers that were confirmed legal adults, so it might be a false alarm.

If you found something on PornHub or similar (possibly including Facebook), they usually have a ‘Report’ link. If you claim it contains minors, they will likely handle reports to the authorities automatically.

If you are looking to discuss whether a work contains a minor, outside of an abstract like the Traci Lords videos, I would recommend against it. Get the compliance records from the studio, or report it to authorities.

The explanation I heard back then was that Pluto wouldn’t qualify as a planet, EXCEPT that it has a moon. I’m not sure why that exception would apply, but it seems it’s no longer good enough.

He’d probably brag about them, even (or especially) if he had nothing to do with them.
