If I were really satan, I’d reverse the shrink ray and make centipedes large enough to ride. I bet they’d add it to the geneva conventions as a war crime.

but… if I don’t make a mess, how are you going to stress clean?
See. I’m helping you destress.
hmmm. I think I’d go with centipedes. For sheer creep-factor. (more than 8 legs is just excessive.)
Though, it’d be fun to have some French guy be like “how Vulgar!” And not be calling me rude.
Good god no. Conjugation is bad enough in English. You don’t want know what my latin grammar is like.
For the record the phonetic alphabet isn’t language and I’m pretty sure there’s slight differences between regions/languages. (Alpha, Able, Apple; for example,)
It’s just a way to spell out letters for clarity over radio. The idea is to create extra syllables in the letters using “familiar” words so that if static or something comes across, you can piece it together; also, “a” is easily confused for “way” or “say” or “may”, and such.
Latin was the market language of Rome, and commanders/generals would have issued orders and received reports written in Latin.
Most soldiers would have spoken it, including the local auxiliaries that were conscripted. (Or at least a pidgin version of it.)
Even if the conscripts would speak whatever amongst themselves, they’d have understood Latin. (It’s also very likely that foreigners brought into the province would pickup at least a pidgin version of the local language.)
To clarify, this would be like the French foreign legion not speaking French. (The do. Maybe not natively, but French language skills are necessary for conscription.)
The issue at hand is that the EU is not an empire, it’s an economic alliance of sovereign countries each with whatever language they happen to speak. For an empire, it’s easy to dictate things like “Latin is the official language, all business is conducted in Latin.”
My brother used to wait at an Applebees type joint, (well except there was actual food and not just appetizers,)
Apparently the worst tippers were the Sunday-after-church crowd followed closely by lunch-special (soup and salad,) rush.
The problem with the soup and salad was that it was free refills so lots of work and the bill stayed low for the percentage tippers.
lol.
Those eggs got mauled.
In any case considering what it is… it doesn’t look horrible. Around here a buck fifty might get you that suspiciously-bright-yellow rice.
look at how Biden talked about the economy.
After stabilizing from COVID, it took him 2 or 3 years to figure out and even acknowledge that inflation is killing people’s financial outlook.
The first mention of that at all was at the NATO thing right before he dropped out.
Sure, he was handed an absolute shit show by Trump; but the messaging was incredibly tone deaf about it.
Same tone deaf manner as the “we’re going to be okay” comment earlier. We don’t all have millions and 246k pension, free health care and 24/7 protection. We’re not okay now, and it’s not going to be fine.
Does that mean we’re handing candidates swords instead of doing debates?
But it’s a hamburger salad?
(Yeah, that didn’t work in the 5yo either.)
I wonder how many fights could have been avoided if Kirk wasn’t trying to bone every space babe in a tinfoil skirt?
His wife tried to bobbit him.
I wonder if he realizes…
He just got the fed reserve act nuked?
Great Job!
The sad part is…. That’s not even fighting dirty.
Garland fucked around, and now we’re all finding out.
The earlier Tales short where Gin and Dooku go to that exploited planet because they abducted some senator’s son is where Dooku began falling to the dark side.
Remember, the clone troopers took a decade to grow and train; and that it was Dooku as Tyranus that recruited Fett; and TPM and AoTC were also a decade apart.
The conflict with “only two there are” and maul and dooku both apparently being apprentices is the result of shitty writing. (Though it’s also possible Dooku-as-Tyranus wasn’t Darth Tyranus as yet and rather just a “useful” asset.)
he hasn’t been charged/convicted of any of the relevant felonies that would preclude service, and nobody is going to make an issue of it; simply because all three branches of government are now under christofascist control. any lawsuits will go to SCROTUS, where they’ll just rubber stamp a decision and cite some bullshit.
also the 14th gives enforcement to congress, which won’t do anything either.
He doesn’t. He’s going to pull back and let Russia do their genocide thing. It’s why he blocked Ukraine aid before this started, too.
Same for Gaza, and probably Taiwan as well.
The only real difference between a cult and a religion is that the person who started it is dead.
oh, it’s definitely standardized, no doubt. But people are people, and some of them are going to call out as it’s familiar to them, and in some sort of urgent response… you’re not going to get too confused at the German guy reading off grid coordinates as ‘24-Richard Wilhelm Theodor…’ to get to a particular random stretch of the Atlantic. (using the MGRS coordinates. 24RWT)
but most of my point was that’s not an actual language; you’re still going to have to designate some language as the common language- and get enough understanding to at least be functional in that. it seems logical to just pick one… but, uh… well. humans aren’t very logical.
