"Just be yourself" is corny advice, but it's also true. Even if you're weird there's no point in covering it up because if it works out you'll just have to keep doing it for the rest of the relationship, which doesn't sound fun. If you've got nerves, just remember your manners, try to listen more than you talk, and have some questions in mind for changing the subject if the conversation seems to veer off track or hit a lull. Asking follow-up questions is a good way to keep the conversation going and not something that people always remember to do, so it'll make you more memorable.

Best of luck! Hope it goes well stalin-heart

One of my faves! I really dig it in stir fries. Folks say you can also use it like you would crab and make crab cakes and such. I've considered sautéing it and rolling it up in sushi but I've never actually done it.

I was attempting to riff on the name of "Health and Human Services" but "human" probably still would've worked better than "Humans"

The surgeons did some cranial reshaping when they went in to get the worm.

Kennedy was later seen carrying a book titled "To Serve Humans."

The take that everyone thinks it's the fault of the group they least like is the most correct imho. The conservative dems all think it's because of woke and Trump's anti-trans ads. The xenophobic dems are blaming the misogynistic Latinos and Muslims, the voting-once-every-four-years-and-making-it-my-entire-personality dems are blaming the nonvoters, every single one of whom apparently had the time and energy to show up to the polls and faced no barriers whatsoever, and the handful left-leaning dems are pointing out that Harris ran a crappy campaign and campaigned with the scion of a war criminal more than her own VP (the response to which has been having standards is a privilege when Trump is on the ballot). The Marvel-brained dems are fun ones, they're running around saying that getting angry at the national party is like blaming the hero for not stopping the villain and asking why is no one blaming the Republicans for their votes (lots of overlap with the xenophobic Dems with anger directed toward crossover voters).

I really kinda wish I was doing a sociological study because the dynamic is interesting. Also sclerotic and nightmarishly involuted, but that's what makes it interesting.

"What if we kissed in front of the portrait of me as a littoral vagabond?"

 

From this post: https://hexbear.net/post/2063160. The whole comments thread is gold, this guy is on a reply streak.

Someone get him on the lathe, let's see more CEOs getting held personally liable.

Also, bonus points that this guy can take time away from his busy day of running a company to post on IGN comment threads, really speaks to the important work he's doing.

Did it accomplish anything? No. Was it a dumb thing to do? Yes. Does it eat at me more and more every day that I'm just sitting by while the bombs keep dropping and people keep dying? Yeppers.

Don't really have anything else to say, just angry at everything including myself.

jokermala We did it, Joe! We fixed inflation!

 
 

tl;dr - authors estimate that millionaires will account for >70% of the remaining carbon we can emit while still staying under 1.5 C. Among billionaires, yachts account for over 60% of their annual emissions.

I got a yen for comfort food and an anti-yen for having to chew at the moment. What are some good things to mix into a bowl of congee?
