I don't need to wonder. I hear "I'm a conservative" and I already know you're a waste of oxygen and carbon. Literally rocks from the ground are more useful and productive to society at large.

Government employee here. It'll actually be the 3rd. We work our shifts for the first 72 hrs after the shutdown and then we go home. We do get back pay for all the hours we would have worked after the budget is approved, so that's nice. The service guys just have to keep working with no pay.

Dnc has been entirely fucked since they froze out Bernie. That's why Trump won.

How long does an artifact need to be in a British museum for it to lose its own provenance and simply become "British museum artefact"? I feel like this is extra spicy cultural appropriation

Loved the Embers of Illeniel series and I'm really digging where Phil Tucker's Immortal Great Souls series is going, and I'm looking for more. I like the progression elements of a weak/underpowered MC growing into a powerhouse over the course of the story, and I REALLY like said powerhouse using that strength to pay back everyone who deserves it. Looking for longer form stuff, and trolling through royal road and scribblehub just isn't scratching that itch.

You mean like how titling works? Like book titles and shit? Lmao I don't see what else you could be asking. Did you think it was some modern trend or something instead of how literary works have been titled since forever?

I'm a welder by trade, and I often use flashlights to inspect my work. I've used a bunch of Maglite solitaires for a while, but I'm getting a little tired of how fast they gunk up or burn out. Turns out, welding work is ROUGH on flashlights, especially if you keep using them through grinding and polishing. What I'm looking for is a small, very durable flashlight. Preferably under 1" in diameter, between 3 and 5 inches long, and very durable with regards to heat and abrasive, conductive dust. Ideally, I'd like something usb-c rechargeable, but without some kind of dust flap for the port I don't see how that's possible. The other problem I tend to have with the maglites is that I end up melting the plastic cover over the bulb. That let's in dust, burning out the element. The front cover would probably need to be something other than plastic. Replacing the solitaires isn't the worst thing in the world, but it's a pain in my ass to forget to buy more and end up burning out the last one when I need it. I don't need anything particularly bright, just indestructible.

I'm down for the apology. It just lost all impact when OP immediately follows up by blaming ADHD and impulsively. That's exceptionally uncool considering the community that was affected. The sarcasm is also problematic especially considering the level of authority that was abused here. The post couldnt be removed by the exact people who are supposed to be able to remove content when needed. To take the attitude of "big deal, so scary" compounds my suspicion of immaturity and is not encouraging to see in an administrator.

What I'm hearing is "I did a bad thing but I have ADHD and I said sorry so it's a whoopsie that shouldn't affect me" but without a genuine apology. Blaming the namesake of this space and "impulsivity" shows nothing but immaturity imo. We get it. You like money. You don't like being called out. Maybe, don't abuse the rules and you won't get called out?
