There’s very few “original” Pokemon. Most of them come from Japanese folklore

There’s a reason Nintendo didn’t use the trademark angle, they would have lost very quickly

$10.1 million to do something that didn’t need to be done (they painted it). $100 million is the estimate to actually fix the leaking pipes that pump water into the pool

I think there’s two distinct concepts at play, thin skin and thick skin. I do not consider them interchangeable concepts, even if they sound like it

I think a good church is great for hobby projects ready to be taken out of the basement

You do have to belong to such a church already though

That is absolutely massive for a browser. Like multiple orders of magnitude too big. Like what are we even doing

And I don’t care if everyone is doing it, it’s still too big!

At least finish reading the damn summary

The state is also requesting that the judge force a series of design changes to Meta’s platforms aimed at improving child safety, including universal age verification, de-encryption of children’s messages

Does this not sound familiar to you?

In fairness, neither do Democrats. Or at least they’re not releasing the report

Tankies are authoritarian lefties, which taste a lot like any other flavor boot in your mouth IMO

They are in no way “more left”, they’re just less liberal/anarchist. Because they’re authoritarians, you see

They’re going higher around the far side of the moon than previous missions, so further from earth

We are going to the moon. Artemis II is going to bring humans further from earth than any human has ever been, and doing a drive by like this is part of the process of landing on the moon

What happens when the people no longer fear the regime?

They lose their power. It’s that simple. They’ll continue to break the government until we get them out of office, but their emails will be ignored because they can’t administrate properly

Apartment buildings have multiple circuits that connect to the grid. Sometimes my power partially goes out, so like these outlets work but those don’t, because there’s three circuits and one tends to break first

Because the world Bank and IMF fucked them when they resisted selling off their country through outside investments, leading to their currency being debased and ultimately giving them weak footing for international trade

They’ve never really recovered from that, and they’ve also flitted back and forth between wildly different economic interventions desperately trying to fix things

They’re house members. They’re generally not all that rich and powerful, they’re protected because they’re useful

They’ll be thrown in front of the mob the second a billionaire feels tight under the collar

I think it’s more that they see the writing on the wall… The people want consequences. There’s likely to be trials

If they wrapped that in the right spin it might just give Putin enough wiggle room to back down without losing his head

Yes?

Wait… This isn’t click bait? Audible expression

And that’s why I left the church. Priest kept drumming up hatred for little zero reason

Been getting more involved with a small non-denominational church over the last few months though. The pastor really steps back when to earth when he gets off the little stage, just back to being a normal guy

I love community and hate hate… There’s no room for hate within me, I won’t let that poison taint me

Yeah. And what would be the best present to get each of them on a first date?
