No sweat. No offense taken.

Sometimes context will inform the reader whether or not the writer genuinely made a mistake or was ignorant. I’m just being helpful here, so don’t get defensive.

Typo: as in, I was slapping keys at 6:45am and couldn’t see.
Thanks.

She’s 20. Two years ago she was in high school, friend.

I am not sure why everyone here isn’t seeing the obvious. You’re 20 and live at home. He’s 25 and is a guy. You’ve been together for 4 weeks. 30 days.
Your parents don’t “love” him. They are just tolerant and probably happy he’s not an awful goober.
You are a love-stuck 20 year old and may potentially not be picking up on cues or grasp the nuances of parenting and having an adult offspring in the house.
He’s a guy, 25, and has likely heard his share of mischaracterizations from parents, or possibly been in a situation where he got caught sleeping over as a teenager… Or any other number of things fresh in his head from also being young.
Neither of you have true license over this relationship while you’re not a fully autonomous person. Sleeping over at your place is going to feel weird at 30 days or 3 years if you live with your parents.
Give the guy a break. It’s not a comfortable situation.

Coincidence? Like the increase in global warming relative to the decrease in the number or pirates globally? I think not.

It’s possible, but difficult to achieve fully. You can greatly diminish consumption though.
- Comment on This fell off my car, can I just rip it off and not care? 3 weeks ago:
I have both. I also worked as a mechanic for many years. I realized that I was exhausted with this conversation, so I don’t feel like discussing it anymore.
OP is fine.
- Comment on This fell off my car, can I just rip it off and not care? 3 weeks ago:
You act like the bottom of a car is hermetically sealed.
These things act as deflectors for debris and channel airflow better. There may be nominal protection for belts, but that’s not a massive factor given most belts are behind the fan and aren’t likely going to take damage or get damaged.
Few non-aircooled cars require flashing for cooling, either. Older Porsches (993s and prior), aircooled VWs, Corvairs, and other aircooled cars need proper flashing to vent and restrict airflow. Aircooled rely more on the radiator, thermostat, and fan.

This person is pushing off their oil change a month or two. The ground is wet and they don’t know what underside sheeting and guards are. They aren’t going to take a peek. They’re asking if they don’t have to care.
For the record, they don’t…

At the end she says they’ll forge a new relationship with nature and has a redemption arc.

Nobody. The film is about balance. Ashitaka spends the entire time trying to get better perspective and ask everyone to calm down.
San is stuck between worlds. Ashitaka is dragged into conflict.
Even Lady Eboshi is highly nuances, caring for people and defending her clan, but she comes to a different belief about naturein the end.
The only baddie in my eyes was the emissary to the daimyo (or Lord, can’t recall), and he was just serving his master.

- Comment on Quick fix for cracked plastic clip: thread wrap and superglue 4 weeks ago:
Clamping? It’s got a tip that you screw down around like the chuck of a standard drill. Dremmels spin at high speeds, 7000-15,000 (or more) RPM. The tip uses a small wrench to tighten down.
You stick filament into the tip. It spins at high speed. The filament heats up from the friction when you touch it to an object. It then starts to melt and bond with the object.
- Comment on Quick fix for cracked plastic clip: thread wrap and superglue 4 weeks ago:
Cool - You will only need a little bit for that clip.
I’ve also successfully reprinted clips like that with PETG. It’s excellent.
- Comment on Quick fix for cracked plastic clip: thread wrap and superglue 4 weeks ago:
Here’s another way that might work for you.
Get some PLA or PETG filament from a 3D printer. Just a few inches worth. Put it into a dremmel - leave only a half inch or so sticking out. Turn it on and you can spot-weld plastic with it. The 3D filament will basically heat up with the friction when you turn the dremmel on and press it into the clip.
PETG is harder and stronger than PLA, but both should do the trick.

“Grown ass men with sausage fingers are also out there painting tiny dolls using nail art brushes so they can play house… with their friends,” Jeong joked. “American men have plenty of manual dexterity.”
OH, man. I feel attacked. I’m going to cry onto my D&D minis now.

Are do you mean “expose” and not “strip”?

Came to say the same thing. It’s like a stream-of-consciousness advertisement. Feels pointless yet intentional all at once. Is it a paid author?
