They’re just past the end of the pier, those big things that aren’t seals.

The look in her face reminds me so much of my old girl. Sixteen years of semi feral intensity. I was her only human. It is a special kind of bond to have.

The ability to disrespect UN resolutions is kind of the expected, normal outcome for any entity within America’s sphere of influence.

The industry benefits most from Israel attacking its neighbors as well as Ukraine’s defense being prolonged to the maximum extent possible.

Makes sense from that perspective to me.

The cash cow of monthly subscriptions to games really kinda poisoned game development. Too much a prize for corporate to leave the games alone.

Everything since WoW has had some income generator grafted in to compete.

Oz was clearly the worse choice in the scenario.

From my time with a county government: homeless tend to cycle between being within municipal city limits, unincorporated county, and state/federal lands like Dept of Transportation lots with highway overpasses and such.

Shuffling between jurisdictions keeps legal proceedings ever going anywhere.

What you end up with when all you have is ‘the other guy is worse.’

Honestly this past week or so has been some of the most normal weather for us.

Ride the Whale.

Internet Nationalism. Brave choice.

If all of that food was prepared by noon it might not have been so suitable to eat in the back half when appetites might’ve kicked in. But please note I was a health inspector once and I fully recognize that my thought processes aren’t common.

Hezbollah is not in a position to benefit from any altercations. It is why they aren’t being the aggressor. There’s just Israeli offensives taking place. Remember Israel is still also doing the same things in the West Bank they’ve been doing.

The absolute and incredible disparity of capabilities cannot be ignored. They aren’t justification of any, but justified damnation for those in power and control.

RIP Taiwanese electronic device export economy.

She is playing a post-Trump game and knows a looming power vacuum when she sees one.

I think if you’ve approached anything I have written here as a refuation of your initial premise, then yeah you probably are feeling that way. You’re trying to manufacture an argument where there isn’t actually one. If the greater context as to what led to such an absurd premise of 1931 is such a conundrum, then it should probably be left at that.
