Damn that rocket told everyone “fuck you” when it launched and then said “no seriously…fuck you” and then decided to meet its fiery demise.

OP doesn’t necessarily “want” to waste time. OP is going through some difficult things right now and looking for helpful advice just to get through the day, Yoda.

Who hurt you, OP?

A co-worker of mine was in the later stages of a difficult pregnancy. We worked 9/80’s and had every other Friday off. A manager was upset because she was having to take so much time off from work to go to doctor’s appointments.

He didn’t understand why she just couldn’t go on off Fridays.

Her doctor did surgery on Fridays, not “regular” appointments. So yes, you’re 100% correct.

Happy cake day!

A different perspective - my grandparents grew up speaking French. Then the state passed a law saying only English in schools when they were young children. They would get hit on the hands with rulers for speaking French.

This was of course passed down to my parents and myself. But my mom still bitches about kids where I currently live being in school and unable to speak English because they’re new immigrants.

She doesn’t see the hypocrisy and it’s sad.

One thing about this that could get interesting is when the school leaders are different versions of the Christian/Catholic faith. Which Bible do you use? Which lessons do you incorporate? What about the trinity? Mary? The saints?

It would be fun to watch, ngl

When I was younger and going to clubs, one club in particular always had drag queens just hanging out in the women’s restroom doing their makeup, talking, whatever, because it had a long mirror/makeup area.

They’d use the bathroom and we would share makeup tips and they were just so funny and having the best time and everyone loved them.

No one felt threatened ffs

My partner is an educator in Texas and I showed this to them. So thanks for posting, OP, getting the word out and such.

IIRC it was around 10,000 French words that were introduced into English after that. That’s what we learned in school, anyway.

lol needed that laugh this morning

About an hour later, Whitefeather returned home and guided deputies to another 6-year-old girl who was visiting with another couple from their church.

Good Christian folks, I see.

I did not know this - it definitely adds context. Thank you!

What was the fucking point of this? It seems so stupid and petty. Like why even go through the trouble?

I know there have been maritime issues between China and others within the last few years or so, but seriously - what is the fucking point of doing this?

This is a hard one. I think we can all agree that the people who need it should have it and the people who don’t…don’t…especially if their easy access to the drug pretty much guarantees a shortage of the drug for those who do need it.

I need it. And when there was a shortage just as we were forced to return to the office after Covid wfh, it was a nightmare. I don’t know for sure that this company was handing out prescriptions to whoever would pay or if they were mostly legitimate, but I imagine that it’s somewhere in between the two. And I do know that we will never be able to have a rational discussion about it between health professionals and the DEA/FDA, etc.

So, a lot of people who need it won’t get it either due to shortages or due to not being able to access a prescription for whatever reason.

Some people will continue to access it who don’t need it, but on a level that guarantees sporadic shortages for others.

No one wins other than those profiting either by selling prescriptions or by selling the drugs themselves at a much higher price than they paid for it using said prescriptions.

Rinse, wash, repeat.

I never knew about the prosciutto/ham, but tajin makes everything better!

My mom eats it with salt. It’s actually not bad, I enjoy it either way. The salt does give it an interesting flavor, so maybe try that if it might enable you to like it more.

I’ll allow it.

Not suspicious at all /s

What a dick. I love your descriptive reply - it’s so, so true.
