Perhaps you’re a bogon emitter like my wife?

Charles Stross put it succinctly in The Atrocity Archives:
Idiots emit bogons, causing machinery to malfunction in their presence. System administrators absorb bogons, letting machinery work again.
This explains why computers suddenly start to work when help arrives. Becoming a bogon sink takes much suffering and practice. You’re already on the path.
Water, inside and out. Dune (the book) had a great quote about the best place for water is inside you.
Humans evolved to deal with heat, and yes, later cold, but our roots are in Africa. So many ways to cool with water, you find strategies that work. Misting is a great example. Low power and water use, works outdoors, they use it in the NFL.
I use gaiters year round, dry for cold, wet for heat. They can make a dramatic difference. Wrap an ice cube in one, put it at the base of your neck, fool your brain stem into thinking you’re cooler.
Staying small is huge (heh). The square cube law is a thing. If you took my skinny hide and spread it out on top of a tall fat man, it would be fairly close. But our volume would be drastically different.
NW Florida here. Lived in Chicago for two years. I’ll take the heat thank you very much. I won’t die if left outside.
Same! My wife speaks better English than she hears. And like you, I’m hooked on CC.
Simple strategy. You lose the low value customers, retain the spenders. Less cost for infrastructure, employees, all that.
They’re likely cutting it too close with the cost, but what do I know, I don’t pay for jack.
OP means people won’t believe Trump initially called for the ban. And they’re right.
I have one TV for my PC monitor and one for, well, TV. Both hardwired to the network, no external network access. Wrote a quick PS script to switch from one to the other or both, made it into an EXE with buttons, très chic. Everything streams off a crappy USB drive “RAID” array. OpenVPN server with Digital Ocean, hosted in Amsterdam, $6/month. DONE.
I’m not on some crusade against capitalism, I simply choose not to participate in bullshit like this.
tl;dr: STEAL YO SHIT.
People say stuff like that and I’m like, what’s the actual law? “It feels bad so it’s probably illegal.”
This particular brand of bullshit is so new I doubt there’s any legislation out there. Maybe an existing consumer protection law could be bent to fit?
Sure you’re not thinking of turtles? I’ve seen them haul ass, but never a tortoise.
If you’re mother has them, I’m sure you said what you meant, but still, never seen one scoot booty.
That and the unanimous SCOTUS decision really say something as to what our government knows.
I did. Took French solely because all the hot chicks were in that class and the dumb jocks and cheerleaders were in Spanish.
Pro tip: You can whisper anything French in your girl’s ear and she’ll positively vibrate. I’ve often used, “Eat my beef raw.” because that’s about all I remember.
If you lean in, she’s leaning in, faces close, DO IT.
If you find a girl with her face closing in, I promise you, she’s likely waiting on you to make the move. DO IT.
One of my favorite lines was from Dostoevsky: “She was greatly moved (?) by his daring.” Something like that. Finally hit me. Yeah, women like a man who is bold.
That’s not a license to be a jerk. That means to be decisive.
“But what if she didn’t want me to kiss her?”
Then she wouldn’t have put her face so close to yours. Women aren’t clueless.
I gotta put a caveat in there for the guys: If you’re not really into her, just swept up in the moment, back the fuck up. Kiss that girl, she’s taking you seriously. If you’re not serious, stop.
LOL, no. 19/20ths of y’all aren’t autistic, at all. The younger gen just got fucked over:
I’d suggest everyone take a deep dive on those comments. See what you take out of it.
tl;dl: GenZ isn’t inherently fucked up, but they got fucked up. READ. IT. ALL.
Oh fuck right off. It’s a joke ad that never existed.
Want some real toxicity? Here:
Did that picture make your pussy hurt?
Who has to ask permission for a kiss?!
“Uh… can I… um… you know… uh…”
I’ve had enough girls give me that, “STFU and kiss me you idiot” look, which closely resembles the, “WTF is he waiting for?” look. Can’t image the look if I was asking first.
Next time you want to bitch about everything Trump taking legal years:
My case is about 5 years old now, I have been going through the legal process the whole time I’ve been working on this. I have finally been found guilty and sentenced, and I’m going away next month.
In other news, legal insurance is about $26/mo. Arm yourself. (And it’s not just for suing people or defending criminal charges. Having a legal opinion a phone call away, or a letter written, can be life changing.)
Also, the pet store crickets are pathetic, tiny and malnourished. Love some advice on best practices!
If anyone has springtails to spare, I’ll gladly pay for them, shipped to NW Florida. Been wanting to get back into breeding those.
Throw in an ad blocker like a Pi-hole. Life changing. FFS, $10 a month on AWS and you can spin a Lightsail instance, or roll your own on a toaster.
