Sounds like maybe she did.

Birds still haven't figured out pants. Bunch of naked musicians, those birds.

They at least let him keep his prize, though.

Conspiracy theory: Barbra Streisand is actually plotting her own kidnapping, not to sway the election, but to detach her name from the "Barbra Streisand Effect" and send googlers to articles about her plight. Prediction: everybody figures out the truth and it only makes her situation worse, reinforcing her connection to the eponymous effect.

Let this be a warning, kids. Tats like this are a gateway. Don't think that he can hide behind a mask forever. Don't follow his route.

"Hey, wanna go on a comic book store date with me at [store name] on [day of the week]?

The ask, the expectation of a date (and admission of romantic interest), and a specific time and place. Don't leave the question open-ended or vague. Then she can respond in a few ways: 1. Yes. 2. I'm not free that day; is there another day that we could go? 3. No thank you.

This makes everything as clear as it can be, with little room for misunderstanding. And it's not a dumb idea at all to have a comic book store date. If you have a hard time talking to girls, don't talk to girls. Talk to humans who happen to be girls. They're people, and you're a person too, so you don't need to overthink it.

You got this! Good luck!

Lawrence of Arabia. The cinematography and score work together to make you feel like the sun is bearing down on you. It isn't particularly colorful, but it is a true spectacle.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse & Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. Gorgeous animation and endlessly creative.

Yeah, my dad and I would actually take them up on these offers. Win-win. I imagine you haven't looked at wood prices in a while. Even firewood is expensive. We'd turn some of them into boards (walnut, in particular), and get plenty of winter fuel with the rest.

Ibram X. Kendi said something about this that made me stop using the term "white trash". Basically, the idea of the term is that "white trash" don't uphold the virtue of whiteness, that whiteness is goodness, and white trash are white in skin color only. Thus, using the term supports white supremacy, whether or not you realize it.

So thank you for saying something, even if it's unpopular.

You are speaking as someone who is home, transportation, and water secure. Someone with a marginally less stable life could have a difficult time staying alive. Heck, your AC going out on a weekend could drastically reduce your own quality of life in totally new ways during this heat.

Jellyfish eat animals and animal byproducts, so no, they are not vegan.

Jokes aside, often vegans follow dietary restrictions for reasons other than an ethical or moral belief against causing pain. Many vegans don't even eat honey, so I imagine jellyfish is pretty safely in non-vegan territory.
