Pretty nifty solution. As a bonus you could snap them together so they stay paired when not being worn.

If you don't eat that chicken wing clean, we can't be friends.

You get one pass and that's if you only take 1 wing.

Okay. Don't stop there Alabama. So if an embryo is now a child, let's talk now about dependents and tax exemptions, protective services, custodial rights and responsibilities, welfare benefits, insurance requirements, HOV rules, census counts, adoption and fostering rules, school districts and education funds, estate planning and probate.... You wanted to open Pandora's damn box - now every piece of state legislation that involves a child now needs to be adjusted.

Might get interesting in the news as questions arise over what the new guidelines are. But of course they won't get addressed. Of course, of course.

I remember a few years ago on the other place that starts with "R", there were a bunch of people who were randomly sent seed packets from China. Big debate on whether they should plant them and if it would start the zombie apocalypse or not. Some planted them and it grew to be wildflowers...so far.

TLDR: seeds

Wow that sounds extensive enough to where there should be an expectation of higher pay. There's an argument that for civic duties such as jury duty or political positions, pay should not incentivize prople to seek those duties or positions or you attract the wrong candidates...but I dont really believe thats true. Still, kudos to you for taking on a front line job like that - I've been to the ER a few times and the environment is just so surreal and depressing. I cant imagine the daily amounts of human suffering that you are exposed to. That'd be enough to justify the weed IMO.

On another note, you should totally do an AMA.

Had the same question when I read the headline and this was super informative. Out of curiosity, do 911 operators have to pass extensive background checks and psych exams to be able to access those databases? Also, I've heard the pay was abysmal - is that still true?

Oh yes, binkying was always pure joy to watch!

Rabbits. Had them as pets throughout my childhood and I was fascinated with their behavior. Sadly, some of my knowledge came from irresponsibleness as pet stores used to sell them willy nilly without good care instructions. This was also during the dial-up modem era so there wasn't much on the internet then either.

Here's some things to know:

  1. You have to handle them a lot when they are young or they will not make great pets.
  2. You can litter train them. They can't use cat litter though as clay dust is bad for their lungs.
  3. If you don't get them fixed, especially the females, they can be predisposed to a lot of reproductive system cancers and be extremely aggressive.
  4. They are highly social animals. It's especially cruel to keep one alone for its entire life.
  5. They are somewhat opportunistic carnivores.

Fully agree with this. Anything in the arts immediately comes to mind. Not just performing arts either - history, literature, and philosophy fields have a lot more uncertainty with income than others.

This is one of the reasons why I favor UBI and universal health care. I think there's a growing deficit in overall creativity, leisure, and social engagement that the arts and other so-called lower-income jobs provide to society. And its not that people care more about money. You just dont have the option to pursue these jobs when your income level affects life or death decisions for you and your loves ones.

Mexican pizza before they take it off the menu again. Also, ask for all of the hot sauces. The workers won't care.

Holy shit dude. These are real as fuck answers. I have done a few of these while going through hard times. 💯 on the need to project the right image into some people's pity systems to get what you need from them. They don't want the truth or to help you, they just want to feel good about themselves. Same for hygiene and creating the illusion of legitimacy to access resources. There's a strategy for every level of life - and you need to know which to use once you move up or down.

 

Just curious to see if any of you out there have been observing any trends that might lead to new motorcycle legislation - for better or worse. I noticed that for 2024 Nebraska surprisingly repealed their motorcycle helmet law making it optional for wear. Definitely raised an eyebrow as they still criminalize lane splitting.

I try to stay on the optimistic side for lane filtering eventually passing here in Virginia but seeing how we are one of only two states where radar detectors are illegal, I think it's fair to say we may just stay in stasis for a while. Anyone else optimistic or pessimistic on new moto laws for this year?
