No, no - this is the forever chemicals in your blood. The plastic in your balls will be a whole other thing!

I’ve been playing Palia. It’s a chill MMO focused on resource gathering, NPC quests, and crafting.
In all seriousness, he could someday move to an employee and customer ownership model and give or sell shares of steam to uses. Would be an awesome fuck you to all the big corporations trying to dominate the games industry.
AFIK, all the subsides for EVa in the US already require them to be made and produced domestically.
You can get a watch repair kit on Amazon that will have the tools to remove the pins between the links.
I’ve also had luck going to a department store with a jewelery counter and seeing if they can make adjustments. Especially if it’s a brand of watch they carry, you can always say someone got it as a gift for you from that chain of stores.
The impact of the death of community in modern society (at least in America) can not be understated. I wish we had comparable institutions to churches that could provide community without the religion.
Traffic enforcement and red light cameras. I used to be very opposed to them, but I’ve since come to appreciate the absurdity of America’s car central culture.
Additionally, traffic stops by police disproportionately effect minorities and lead to escalations and other issues, while taking away enforcement capacity from more important things.
I still don’t think the cameras should necessarily be run by private, for profit entities. Nor would I really want cameras that ticket you if you go 1 mph over. But in general I’m much less opposed to the idea than I used to be.
There was an interview with E Jean Carroll and her attorney and they claimed Trump had to pay it out pocket for the first defamation fine because no bond company would work with him. That was only for like $5 million.
There actually is a pretty unprecedented number of migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers entering and trying to enter the country which has put a strain on border communities over the past couple of years.
Thanks for the recommendation. I was wondering what else to try as I sure as hell don’t want to use YouTube and it doesn’t seem like you can have a separate podcast playlist in Spotify.
I would add a progressively higher tax rate for each property beyond 2-3.
There are so many things these days which co-opt and diminish our ability to pay attention and focus, it wouldn’t be all that surprising if it’s also affecting memory.
The book Stolen Focus goes into these issues, but diet, air pollution, smart phones, social media, and instant gratification tired to consumerism all diminish our ability to focus.
Go for a walk, longer is better but even 20 minutes will help.
Eat fermented foods and plenty of fiber to keep your gut micro biome happy. There’s increasing evidence that your gut health impacts your mental health.
I’m so skeptical of companies, that I almost instinctively distrust any company which directly advertises to me. I would be doubly so if that ad came soon after discussing a need.
Here’s a wild thought, maybe the best security comes from being a good neighbor and cooperating with people around you.
I’m over 200 hours in and still mostly enjoying Starfield. There are a lot of things that could be better and the limitations of the game engine are pretty evident. I feel like the game will continue to evolve with expansions and mods but that’s not good enough for people who expected everything day 1.
The repetition of points of interest is definitely a bummer. It also doesn’t make sense that no matter where you land on any planet there is always a handful of structures and people nearby. Or that another ship always seems to land near you shortly after touching down.
It’s also annoying how 300 years in the future, people seem to have completely forgotten about night vision and your only option for illumination is the built in flashlight.
I think that’s maybe the most frustrating thing: it’s easy to see how the game could’ve been cooler in so many ways, but due to the engine or development constraints shortcuts were taken that result in subpar play.
Unless it’s an online multiplayer game, let me pause whenever! Playing Starfield now and it’s so annoying that you can’t pause during dialogue or ship fight by hitting ESC.
Agriculture uses up the most water in the Southwest - particularly in AZ and California. So, yes curtailing water use from thirsty crops is a big issue. Furthermore, these companies are drawing ground water from increasingly deep wells which is unsustainable and leads to shallower neighboring wells drying up.
It is a little mystifying that they continue to be so bad at maps across so many games.
No, but if he the president does have absolute immunity Biden could just have seal team 6 kill Trump and some of the justices.
Not that he would, but imagined the surprised Pikachu face on the GOP if Biden called their bullshit.
