Why are you the authority to change how people talk? At the risk of sounding harsh: no one cares what you think.
1023·5 days agoCall me cynical but I do think an outlet called oil price dot com may not be entirely impartial when they report on this. That is not to say what they wrote here is wrong; I wouldn’t know. It just has a touch of pot and kettle about it.
Since the power networks are linked and European countries import and export electricity, it wouldn’t surprise me to learn that next to renewables power from gas stepped in to fill the nuclear gap. And the price for natural gas is often linked to a certain other commodity price.
blowing the butt trumpet has been an embarrassing thing for millennia
This is not correct. There is a Martin Luther qoute (around 1500) that goes something like “why don’t you burp or fart? Wasn’t the meal to your liking?” The Romans made the latrine a social gathering. The need for butt trumpet privacy is fairly recent.
“We are not so different, you and I,” soliloquies the villain.
I get she was frustrated. I get this was a joke. You don’t make bomb jokes in line at the TSA either.
She may have overestimated the degree of privacy her DMs had. That’s also on her. Other e2e encrypted services are available to make the crass jokes. But if one of the three recipients had also failed to get the joke, a Signal chat would’ve sufficed to get those deputies showing up as well.
And one shouldn’t expect that a company, even of dwindling importance as Snapchat, won’t do everything in their power to cover their asses. Imagine if this teacher did go amok and they flagged it but did nothing.
Reverses the order of play when 3 or more people play or behaves like a skip when only 2 are left.
My kids brought home from kindergarten the house rule that you can discard all cards you hold with the same number at the same time when it is your turn so long as the bottom card matches the suit being played. Very chaotic but they love it.
Probably not. And they find jobs in calmer setups or they get out of the kitchen. But for the rest, that isn’t a deal breaker. If that’s what you want to do then that’s a likely way to have to do it.
The somewhat military order in a professional kitchen is by design. Order is important. I’ve gone through weeks of training in a fine dining kitchen and having worked in hotels I could look into busy kitchens from the sideline. Culture plays a big part. You can have a busy orderly kitchen without too much shouting and people not hating each other at the end of service.
A lot of the drama that happens between people, if it isn’t stress, is the fact that advancement options are limited. The higher up you get in the hierarchy, the fewer jobs will be available to you.

I know it’s ridiculous to say it but I’m getting strong sock puppet account vibes.
In recent memory, there was a brief gap of calm in most of the world between the fall of the USSR and 9/11 where it looked like we could go a different, more positive direction. For the rest, every generation thought they lived in the most volatile times. I’m not trying to say it’s delusional necessarily but we have a strong recency bias.
If you can’t (or won’t) cut down on having firearms freely available, and if you cannot (or will not) do more on the mental health side of prevention, and you have already invented bullet proof whiteboards, doors like battlefield tanks, and implemented a system of metal detector entry checks and maybe deployed an armed guard, then this is an almost good idea. It’s the blinking light in the window and an alarm system sticker on the window that may deter a thief but for school shootings.
I’m not sure about pepper spray. Is a blind shooter unloading their AR-15 magazine an improvement over a fully sighted one? Why aren’t they equipping them with tranquilizer darts? Cross promotion potential for zoos as well.
What are the odds that we get coordinated school attacks and we find out one part-time student at the control center can’t fly 5 drones in 5 different high schools at the same time?
Star Trek Picard S2. S1 was rough but they managed to dig deeper. Casting and acting were alright; the story less so. Suffered from production during the plague, to be fair.
Male homosexual sex bad, according to OT god. Most Christians don’t think it warrants the death penalty today any more. Although some surely still do. And homosexuality is seen differently in different denominations of Christianity, ranging from just fine to tolerated to fire and brimstone.
Pick your favorite hero movie franchise. It’s a series of that taking place in antiquity.
Have a look before you post. This intelligent looking thumbnail has been posted already.
Have you ever met anyone who got annoyed at you for asking slightly different versions of the same question?
On the one hand, any negative Melon Usk headline fills me with joy just like all the shit flung at Meta. On the other hand, my empathy for people living on yachts who get effed by this change particularly knows bounds.
Poland - if they didn’t just forget it - may be excluded because it borders Ukraine where they use Starlink for military reasons. Maybe they preserve bandwidth or try to deter roaming tourism of rich people thrill seekers or something like that. Monaco is missing because that’s basically France. It’s about 4 klicks across, the satellites fly at about 500 km overhead - that’s probably a rounding error. Cyprus may either be too small as well or it’s excluded because it is a divided island.
