Are you masturbating at all? I can imagine being so horny that a porn subscription seems tempting, but masturbating would clear that up. It seems like you’ve skipped several levels and gone straight to the most expensive masturbation enhancement.

- Comment on I am looking to broaden my youtube channels that I follow. What female channel are you following? 2 weeks ago:
Mary’s Test Kitchen I’m not vegan, but I like the scientific approach she takes to testing recipes.
3x3 Custom Woodworking channel
The Octopus Lady fun deep dives into weird ocean critters.
antiheroines humerous but vulnerable reviews of lesser known horror/thriller movies.
This question made me realize that just over half of my subs are woman-run channels.

That’s how I always imagine it when I read it too. Joel from Marvelous Ms Maisel says it almost exactly the same which just reinforced it.

Yeah, I’ve got mine in my phone as “Don’t answer”, but she changes numbers a lot and borrows phones so I still fall for it sometimes if I’m expecting an important call and have to answer unknown numbers.

Also your data is meant to be private and accessed by a single person. Basically a big wall around your stuff with a single door.
Corporate data, by design, needs to be accessed by many people inside and outside the company. So they are adding another door for each person, department, or API that needs access. Even if the wall is higher and stronger, it’s still full of doors to try.
- Comment on Might be time to find another job 3 weeks ago:
At one of my previous jobs it was the head of HR stealing people’s food. Every time somebody complained he’d put up a sign and start “investigating”, but nothing ever came of it despite having cameras pointed at the fridge. Eventually someone got tired of it, put up their own camera, and caught the head of HR on camera a couple times. Apparently the president of the company didn’t care and brushed it off. I only found out because the guy with evidence blanket emailed the videos to the whole company. Of course he got written up for doing that.
- Comment on The bigger story about that Norwegian tourist 3 weeks ago:
I feel bad, because it is horrific and deeply concerning, but I lose it every time I see that picture in relation to this story. Something about the absurdity is absolutely perfect. I hope that tourist really did smile through the tears after seeing it again.

I knew there were more niche types than the A, B, and Rh, but I had no idea we were up to 48. I wonder how much the lesser known types interfere with transfusions.

I like the concept, and I think it would fit the definition of democracy since it reflects the will of the people. The main issue I see is that it still remains stable if a majority superclass oppresses a minority underclass. Tyranny of the Masses is a problem with most forms of democracy, not just yours.
One tactic to mitigate it is by only doing a random sample each time instead of a full sample. So randomly select 20% of the population, require them to vote, and if 50% of them vote in favor then there’s no election. That only works if the mechanism to randomly select people can’t be tampered with, though.

Sometimes as low as $1 per day, sometimes up to $50 per day, all dependent on the state and specific prison. Hawaii doesn’t charge, so get locked up there if you follow through with this plan!
Sure, private prison execs already get to hoover up taxpayer money, and they profit from the slave labor, but how else would they get filthy rich if they stopped profiting off you just because you finished your sentence?

You’d better hope that art is good enough to pay for your prison rent or you’ll be in debt for the rest of your life. Especially given how tough it is to get a traditional job afterwards.
- Comment on Just be that way 5 weeks ago:
The setup based on the first image+caption would lead you to believe the second image will relay how boys feel if a girl walks into the locker room. The second half instead subverts that expectation by having a too-accurate caption of a strange image, unrelated to locker rooms.

My mom said it to me frequently before I cut her out, which is a pretty good indication it’s not normal. A therapist would tell you that’s a reflection of her issues; if she had a different kid instead of you she would have said the same thing to them. You, as a person, don’t really factor into why she feels that way.
As for your feelings, let me know what you come up with. I’m in the same boat emotionally and I don’t see a way out either.
- Comment on If no government shall bare arms against its own citizens. Then what is happening in LA? 1 month ago:
You definitely seem to have the second amendment backwards, as others have mentioned.
Additionally, the US government has turned the military on its own protesters several times. The Kent State massacre, The Battle of Blair Mountain, and the 1967 Detroit riots are all instances where they murdered civilians and faced no consequences. It’s completely legal and, in all three of those cases, was happily endorsed by much of the populace.

This may be unpopular, but I don’t use the dividers at checkout. I just wait my turn. Once all the previous person’s stuff is scanned I start loading my stuff on the belt. By the time they finish paying, even with a tap card, I’ve got the belt full and I’m waiting again.
Some guy got mad at me at Costco recently for it. I guess he really wanted to get some stuff out of his cart while the person in front of me was still getting scanned. It feels like flooring it to every red light. You still have to wait, so what’s the point?

Does anybody have a link to an actual source for the claim? I would absolutely believe it, but this article’s “source” just seems to be the same article but Russian. The guy on Twitter claiming to be the author of the code seems to be trolling, leaving me with no leads.
I want to send this to my coworker who hates React, but I don’t want to spread misinformation.
