This section contemplates mail fraud and the penalties incurred for committing said fraud.

I find it incredibly entertaining that, although these laws magically do not apply to them, these people invoke them to attempt to intimidate government officials.

What? Of course I pet random dogs on the street. You don't?

I mean, I ask first, if they're with a human.. if not, well...

There are absolutely, unequivocally, killers for hire. You just aren't going to find them on the hitman equivalent of Amazon dot fucking com.

A shawarma is very similar to a gyro, both are wrapped in a pita like bread (although I don't think the shawarma bread is called pita). A shawarma tends to have spicier ingredients compared to a gyro, and originates from the Middle East.

Yep. First time ever was a real trip though. I was at a girl's house and she ties me up with some of her scarves as things are getting hot and heavy.

I enjoy spanking so I asked her to punish me because I was too shy to ask for what I wanted so she tied me up and started biting and scratching me.

Looooook beggars can't be choosers.

After a few minutes the doorbell rings and she tells me "don't go anywhere..."

Well she was gone a long time and I'm buck naked with my dick hanging out and peppered with scratch and bite marks and I get it in my head that it's her dad.

Don't ask where I got that idea, but we were in a religiously conservative country and I didn't want to get my dick cut off.

Anyway I managed to get loose from the scarves. It was an intense 90 seconds or so and my wrists got pretty raw.

She comes back and it was just a delivery.

She was bit perturbed with me because I really fucked one of the scarves up in the process but we had a laugh and got back to it.

Me neither.

Makes sense though. If the reentry is botched you're essentially aiming a ~300lb projectile (or a bunch of tinier projectiles) in this case at who knows what at terminal velocity.

Launches at least control where the thing leaves from and are designed to fallout over non inhabited areas in the event of a botched takeoff.

It would be useful if you live in the United States, or any of the dozens of countries that use the system either as a standalone measurement of temperature or as part of a dual system. The British Virgin Islands, Antigua, Barbuda, the Bahamas... Etc.

I find it actually kind of a fun way to start a conversation with anyone outside of the U.S. by attempting to convert my local weather to Celsius. I'm on international calls fairly regularly and (can't blame anyone for this) telling anyone outside the US or the countries above the temperature in fahrenheit is like speaking a foreign language.

This.

I had someone the other day tell me the Tiananmen "tank man" incident never happened. We were discussing cognitive biases and she used this as an example of confirmation bias. But naturally she was arguing that anyone who didn't share her world view suffered from confirmation bias.

When I said "the incident did happen and there's photographic evidence" she told me "Google it there's no photo "

Well, we googled it and there is, in fact, a photo. There's more than one, actually.

I decided that presenting facts no longer was the point of the conversation when she shifted to the argument "that photo is known to be staged."

🙄

I don't know why, I have absolutely zero against Mayor Castor. I don't even really know much about her or her politics.

But... Her being a former police chief and now 2 time mayor of Tampa for some reason part of my brain is telling me "prearranged publicity stunt."

Why else disclose that she's the one who found the dope? And, while it's not unheard of to find cocaine floating around the ocean down here, that's a LOT of cocaine. Enough for a big fat nationwide headline, especially if you're mayor of Tampa.

So maybe it is a coincidence that she found it and she did not, in fact, trade a favor to get some white girl lost from a drug bust, but I have never been a fan of coincidence.

It's this plus uptime. Both come down to usability. Nobody wants to use a product that is confusing or unreliable.

I think it's just a place to post things that pop into your head while taking a shower.

That's how I've always experienced it.
