One from my childhood in the south, would occasionally hear the adults say "my ___ hurts worse than a removed's knees on nickel blowjob day"
The John Ehrlichman Quote
Reread what I wrote. Every government functions under an ideology. Governments do not exist in a vacuum, they are a collection of people, and those people have a more or less unified set of ideals on how their society should function. Yes, ideologies exist only in the mind, but governments are a physical manifestations of that mental construct. Even when there is a major disagreement within a government, such as the division in the US currently, it's still a difference of degrees. No one in the the US government is outside of capitalism, even so-called socialists like Bernie Sanders. The US government functions under the ideology of capitalism. The Cuban government functions under the ideology of socialism. Even if you argue that Cuba isn't actually socialist, they still function under the ideology of socialism. Governments exist because of those mental constructs.
The John Ehrlichman Quote
Every government functions under an ideology. Capitalism is an ideology, democracy is an ideology, socialism, anarchism, liberalism, conservativism, they're all ideologies. An ideology is just a set of ideals.
I just finished TLA. I'd never seen it, and now I have, and it's gone, and my life feels empty. Why would you bring this up? Why would you hurt me so?
Korra is good, but it doesn't hit the same, and 70 years is not enough to fully industrialize a society.
They're tired and would like to take a nap. Do the right thing and make them a sandwich. Getting milked is exhausting, especially if it's a power play thing with post milking overstim.
Simulation Theory
Is this a book in the culture series? I'm about half way through consider phlebas
Exactly! Not having that emergency call is like not wearing a seatbelt. It's not a problem, until it very much so is. I've made that mistake, and while nothing tragic happened because of it, it almost did. Never again.
My mom has always used a call for puppies that I don't know how to type, so I made a YouTube short. Haha.
The first one is the call my mom uses with all her dogs, the second one is my augmented version. I wanted a call the dogs knew that if they heard it, they knew 100% there were no repercussions. No scolding, or having to go get in their bed. Only good things. I've had dogs in the past that, if they thought they might get in trouble, would run, and these fellers are so little and fragile, that scares the crap out of me. So, they got the augmented call, which is just the regular call, but to the nickelodeon theme tune.
The last one is the noise we make when it's time to go outside to poop. It's the poop call. If they hear it, they're supposed to go poop.
You say this, but you've never seen me try to math
If you claim you have a religious for needing them back (reunification being pretty common, as in, you need them so you can be buried with them) then they will run their tests, and give them back to you if they're not a hazard.
My brother used this to keep his gallbladder, and a friend of a friend kept her foot after diabetes took it. Both examples in Tennessee. I don't know if it matters which state you're in, but I'm positive the country would probably make a difference.
Plus, I think it's funny the idea of some medical person somewhere trying to square their incredibly narrow view of religion with a trans woman being so devout in their own faith as to be concerned about burial practices potentially decades in the future, given the stereotype that everyone LGBTQ+ is an evil atheist.
I started using Linux in 2008. A friend of mine on an old forum showed me wubi and helped me get set up. When he went AWOL and stopped posting, I went on some Ubuntu forum and asked for help with a problem I was having (WiFi had stopped working randomly). Those people tore me apart and spit on my bloodied corpse. It was brutal. Apparently, I was a disgusting moron for using wubi instead of replacing windows (on my netbook with no disc drive) entirely. It was insane. I've since discovered that I'd just found a particularly toxic group by chance, and that most of the community is actually very kind. But at the time, it was genuinely hurtful. I not only stopped asking for help for a long time, I stopped learning about Linux and computers in general because I felt like it was something I'd never understand, I was clearly too stupid to get it.
I sure do love me a sleep train
I love the idea of an officiant with total free reign. "You may now kiss... The grooms mother on the cheek. ... Just playing, y'all. They gonna dance. Dance, boys!"
As a religious person, I will absolutely sleep with your partner while you're stuck in traffic.
I love a nap. I'm always sleepy, and if you're stuck in traffic and I'm bored, imma be sleepin.
Good use for it! My best friend is a former Baptist preacher who still occasionally preaches at different churches, and he likes to use it whenever that comes up.
Mind if I ask if it was a religious ceremony?
This. Exactly this. I'm dying to know.
10 years ago me and my mom worked jobs from home. I did CenturyLink (phone company) and HSN and QVC. She did dish network, directv and Eddie Bauer. It was easier then to find wfh jobs than it is now. Then it was unusual, but no stigma. Now it's like you're an evil clown bent on molesting the village's sheep if you even suggest it. -_-
Came here looking for someone to have quoted this. I quote it to bigots all the time and it straight pisses them off.
