Shoes are sized for socks.

So MGOW for women.

A tablet is a pad of paper that’s glued on one edge. You can flip the sheets or tear them out. The full name for a binder is a “loose leaf binder”. Because it’s designed to bind…loose sheets!

133 communities and just 45 users. An old alt of mine is among them for a reason I can’t recall. Login trouble or something?

Edited for fat fingers.

Desert wasn’t really a cyberpunk setting until BR 2049. Post-apocolyptic sure, MadMax had that stitched up in 1979, but not cyberpunk.

You are thinking of Pierre Poilievre maybe.

It’s voter suppression. By limiting the number of voting locations and understanding them you make long lines where people will wait for hours to vote.

Sheets weekly. Towels twice a week, but I shower twice a day.

Well it does …but the side effects are killer.

I donate regularly in Canada and give it away for free as does everyone else. I don’t donate plasma because it’s not especially useful with my blood type (AB+ is universal for plasma, O- for other products).

This is true for every regulated profession. It’s not exceptional.

She is a civilian member. As you were.

Because it’s financially supported by foreign actors?

The majority of the population does not access an independent press. Sinclair Communications, Fox etc. don’t want a horse race, they have their whole hands on the scale pushing for a Trump victory.

Anything that presents a risk of viewing a penis.

Eastman Color for the win! I hadn’t heard that before. I thought the term was strictly descriptive because the creative teams were mostly Italian/Spanish. Filming locations were in Italy and Spain as well.

Hardly. Sergio Leone reinvigorated the Western genre. Compare A Fistful of Dollars by Sergio Leone to The Quick Gun or Bullet for a Bad Man both by R.G. Springsteen and released the same year. There is simply no comparison in terms of style or pacing. Wife wants to go to dinner so I might add some later.
