Pronouns: it/its, she/her, or fae/faer. It refers to itself in third person. That’s just how it be.
Giving each state equal representation without a population distribution that is exactly equal across every state inherently devalues the representation of those in population centers, giving disproportionate power to a party that is outnumbered but is spread out over the much emptier land. Equal rep must be based proportionally off of population to avoid devaluing individual voter influence.
Nearly free? I’d tell you to tell that to my dad, but he passed away after getting thoroughly drained of most of his savings thanks to his “nearly free” health care while dying of cancer.
Wholesome plot twist: the thralls to be know. They don’t really care about the conversion, they just think you’re cool and see you struggling to manage your lair. The conversion is just so they can help you out after death.
It’s not that they never get around to it. It’s that the thought of taking on the responsibility of thralls is so paralyzing that they cannot muster the willpower to get it done.
“Hey boss, you ready to bestow eternal life unto us and forever bind us to servitude?”
“Shit, I forgot dude. I’m sorry. Still have some prep to do but I’ll keep you updated.”
That’s a lie. ADHD folks forget a lot of things, but not the horror that is being locked in your useless body watching the clock tick down while you scream internally to just DO THE THING INSTEAD OF TORMENTING YOURSELF FOR HOURS, DAYS, WEEKS, or god forbid CENTURIES when the fix is a simple bite and being fucking honest with your thralls, hoping they understand.
Another hour passes. Executive dysfunction doesn’t care. Not like you can metabolize your medicine for it anymore.
As we all know, the best argument against harm reduction is “Things aren’t perfect so I will hurt everyone EXCEPT my enemy as much as possible to punish them. But not my enemy.”
Yikes.
Okay but what is good engagement against “follow the science” aside from “I literally DO the science”? Dr. McCreight offered a point and was met with “nuh uh” so at that point it can hardly be called an argument or debate. Do those fallacies honestly matter at that point when one refuses to engage with tangible points of discussion?
… Which was renamed and converted from the United States Digital Service, established by Obama in 2014.

It doesn’t matter if you “agree” with it in the same way that it doesn’t matter if you “agree” with children growing above a certain height. It’s going to occur. Treat them humanely.
You can still play FFXI in 2024 officially on PC. Just don’t need the PS2.
Shortsighted. The real fear here is that you’ll use it at the wrong time and waste it’s potential, so you save it for the perfect opportunity…
Unfortunately, you never know when you missed it and the potion is never used.
Good for him that his wife found the packets in the couch.
Debatable
If that was even slightly true my comment would be unreadable to you.
Happy to help! And you can now say you learned about cultural osmosis through cultural osmosis!
You teach the currently relevant rules, vocabulary and literature while the students learn the rest through cultural osmosis. Like every one of us did.
While nice in theory, that’s not how partisan politics works in practice. What’s going to happen is that the absurdly large proportion of judges from conservative states will simply shout over opposition like they currently do in all other branches of government and stonewall any attempt to compromise. Gods forbid you try to push progressive ideas.
