Wait until you hear the real shenanigans. Remember the cards against humanity fricassee with elon musk's company down near the border? It's not all that uncommon. I lived in an area with less people than cows for a few years, and there was a famous (true) local legend of a construction company that had put heavy machinery (I think some sort of road roller) in front of a farmer's front land/gate, then refused to move it when asked. The farmer stacked about 30-50 round bales of hay around said piece of equipment, and told them just what would happen if they tried to 'steal' his hay. 6 years later, that equipment was still sitting there, and I'm betting it still is.

I think it was something like $30 out of my brother's wallet. Boy did I get in trouble for that one. In my defense, he had just left it lying on top of his bed's side table! You can't expect a five year old to not steal $30 out of a wallet just lying on a side table in a room with a closed door!

I don't even know what I spent it on, thinking back. Probably those little styrofoam airplanes you could put together from the little store out in the country that was nearby.

because if we’re going to do anything good as a species, it will be making sure our dogs outlive us

So, funny thing about this, is it's not at all true. I have a friend who is a vet, and he quite succinctly clarified with some good journal articles that the real issue with dogs' short lives is we just don't care. If we had been breeding for longer lives at any point, they would have no issue with living for decades longer than their current spans. It's never been a priority (and might even be a poor business decision) for breeders to focus on longevity. Even health is only a passing concern for their 'working' period.

Maybe humanity will become better. Someday.

People revel in their stupidity. I have to hold conversations with several family members regularly where my jaw hits the floor as they refuse to put even the slightest thought into the things they do everyday. Just today I tried to explain the simplest of ideas of a browser and they won't even listen.

STAR, or even the simple approval voting? They fall into the 'but one vote!' statement so fast that it leaves a crater.

Does it fall somewhere between a stutter and the 'ke ke ke' of my manga reading youth?

Toast is bread.

Question for the doctor, especially due to your location of work. Have you ever been approached for shadowing? How would you prefer to be asked?

I'm just thinking about how warm it would be. That much air space from the pockets would create a great resistance in conditions without strong winds.

I suppose it's possible. The amount of absorption is going to depend on what specifically is 'in there.' Most vitamins (for example) have been separated from their pre-eaten location/environment by the physical mastication, churning, and compression; and by chemical means by chelation agents, acid/enzyme digestion, or other molecules that break apart lipid blobs and such; and even more importantly, are done in areas designed for absorption with lots of villi to give a million times the surface area. Alcohol, the oft-given example of a substance absorbed by the rear part of your gastric tube, is a fairly 'ready to be absorbed' compound. Suppositories are also similarly in a state that makes their active agents easily absorbed.

A whole bananal probably is going to be absorbed like a rock through a 5mm sieve. The bacteria in the rectum might start the process, breaking down the cells and matrix of the banana into readily absorbed compounds, but if you've ever seen an organic object like an apple or banana rot outside somewhere, it is a very slow process. You'll be much more likely to suffer some form of infection/sepsis from the bloom of bacteria (or the smaller chance of a fungal infection) long before enough of the banana is absorbed.

All of this is even more true if the OP was shoving them still in their skins in. The bananal skin will definitely be a very slow degradation, and absorb like an intelligent thought into the president elect.

2 people trying to stab you, not greater than 1

From the Hollywoo rule of attackering protagonists, more attackers mean more ways to foil them by misdirection and mutual banging each other, therefore 2>1.

I'll do you better, and someone out there may know it's me.

I once was in a river,

downstream from many givers,

and then began to shiver...

I felt a slide go past my liver.

There I was alone;

the house far, and across stone;

and my south began to groan;

from my lips I droned, "oh no."

I tried to climb the rise,`

while tightly clamping thighs,

but as I soon surmised,

I couldn't hold the surprise.

All the river floaters watched,

as my privacy I botched,

there right upon the stony swatch,

what horror flowed right from my crotch.

Worst experience of my shitting life was when I didn't defecate prior to the monthly jog. Luckily I could squeeze through the fence of the golf club I was near, and it was early enough nobody was around to 'report' me, AND they had the course's bathroom door unlocked. Now I just exercise at home where there's a bathroom within safe jumping distance.

My newest console is a wii, so... yes?

I wish I had a gym that was $10 a month. They closed all the gold's gym express joints a while ago. Those were gold.

At first I thought they were making a sly joke by using the actual employee's name.

That's the best answer.

I mean, I get it, but this is the same logic that is sometimes used for school shootings. It's abhorrent to ignore a large increase compared to other places just because it is still a small chance, and therefore do nothing.

I have to think a bullet brick would be much more painful than a bullet point. I'm also curious if it would be more of a cannon than a gun, and thus safer to have in the hands of 'the people' because it wouldn't really be a thing you could carry around on a whim. Would people put it in those little red wagons and walk it like a dog in a movie montage?

Did you mean c/latestagecapitalism in particular

Yes, that's what he meant when he said "blocked communities..." You've been here a year and not noticed that they are called communities? That's what the c stands for in the urlbe/c/urlen when you go to a particular community.

I bet that's a pretty good insecticide.
