there’s that, too. a lot of it depends on what’s being farmed, and how much regular deamand there is for it.

they don’t even have the money for payroll right now.

So no, they really can’t fix it overnight.

… That might be the excuse they’re using.

The reality is that they don’t have the money because they spent it on bombing schools for young girls.

fuckers need to fuck right off to the fuckerville composting center.

Why do I imagine the staff at Gate’s being cast as the comedic villians trying to catch the anti-hero- Rocko, whose getting up to mischief… and, uh, stuff.

They stager their crops.

Basically, it takes 20-30 years for a yellow pine to reach harvest. So they have lots of (huge) tracks that are growing, each lot is planted in sequential years- one lot is planted while another is harvested

and why wouldn’t they? Trump is a fickle bastard who doesn’t keep his promises, and is corrupt as fucking hell.

She’s being sued because while working for her they had sex. And then, like it always does, the affair came out.

That said the basis that allows the suit in NC is that she sent a few texts while he was there- neither Sinema nor the guy lives in NC. (And presumably? Neither does the guys ex wife.)

So there’s a good chance it’s a money grab or vindictiveness or something.

Depends on how much air is in there with the water.

Water itself is incompressible so the balloon won’t shrink that much, but there’s some air in there so it would shrink a bit.

The balloon’s popping action comes from being filled and expanded. It’s an elastic, so if something breaks it, it snaps back.

The only way that wouldn’t happen is if there was mostly air in there, and you went to the appropriate depth where that air was compressed down to its original volume.

if you believe that babies go to heaven because they’re innocent or whatever… and that god is real and will throw kids into hell once they’re old enough to be culpable, unless they perform certain weird ritual blood magic invoking the human sacrifice at the center of the cult…

it’s totally reasonable to off your kids before they’re too old…

No. this is not to say she’s not crazy. but that’s the religion for you.

Actually, the reason for all the similarities is because nepotistic despots all tend to follow the same playbook.

But the people for whom the book of revelation was written knew it was speaking of Nero. When his name was translated to Hebrew and Gemara applied to get a number it comes out as 666. Or 616, in the contemporary Greek translation, since Nero Kaiser is pronounced Neron Kaiser.

There was also the cult that believed Nero returned from the dead (Nero Redivivus).

It should be noted that all prophetic works are messages to people in a time and place, and understanding them requires understanding those people. Much of what modern christians now say about is little more than copium scraped off the wall.

Jesus said he’d return and then do all the messianic things he didn’t do the first time.

Then jesus didn’t come back because he was preparing for a war.

Then Jesus didn’t comeback because he was fighting that war. Then all the disciples died and it just started getting weird from there

* who raised creepy, couch fucking Nazis?

No. No we do not

This is only true if there’s a skirt he’s not supposed to chase.

Janeway was a choice, but he got it done.

Guess Janeway didn’t have her coffee that day.

Imagine, a person follows you around. Tracks everything you do- they know when you go to the hardware store. Know what you buy.

They know when you go to the grocery store. Know what you buy there.

Target and Walmart too.

They all know your car. They know what you stop to look at before moving on. They know what you don’t stop but grab quickly.

This person knows what you look like, can recognize you just by how you walk, and knows when you’re speeding, they know how you drive.

They know when you go to the doctors.

They know when you go to planned parenthood.

They know your credit score. How much debt you have. How much you make, what hours you work.

They know everything about you, including the last time you had sex because you put an Amazon dot in your bedroom and they paid Amazon for that knowledge.

Imagine all that.

Now start asking what kinda stalking charges that person is guilty of.

Now realize they’re doing this to 350 million people.

But it’s okay because cops happen to be some other clients.

(Weee fascism!)

So you’re saying they need to hydrate better?

The funny think is Pinky was actually the genius. But he didn’t want to upstage Brain.

It’s possible, especially for target pistols, many can have a very light trigger pull.

That said, I don’t think this was.

Trust, yes. But they also verify.

A pruning pull with a rope that lets you hit a taped on spray paint can should do the trick.

Or an RC heli that does similar.

I bet someone clever can build a stingray and capture the cell signal.
