He didn't accept the 2016 results, so I wouldn't count on it.

You also need to be careful when deleting your account - when you do, they'll send you a "there was an issue with your request" email that tries to get you to register again by prompting you to "log in" to fix it. The log in is creating a password for a new account.

I spent years and years putting in conscious effort to get to a place where I can accept myself as I am. It’s a journey that has been very worthwhile.

It's a crazy journey going from self-loathing to the point where now I check myself out in the mirror. I even used to hate my name, but now I slap that shit on everything, and don't even abbreviate in a professional environment.

Took a lot of years and a lot of work, but definitely worth it.

How the hell do y'all remember first grade? I only have the spottiest of memories prior to high school. Heck even that is spotty, just more spots.

So you're saying Hän is Solo?

You joke, but since you got the jab I can guarantee you will die.

(Just not any faster than normal...)

Yeah, at this point don't buy anything on Amazon that you want to be legit.

I need some SD cards, but I'm waiting until I can make a trip to MicroCenter. No way in hell I'd risk ordering on Amazon.

Have you looked recently? For the past few years buying new was actually cheaper than buying used, and factoring in manufacturer subsidized interest rates, the difference in the current market still makes new a viable option, unless you're looking at 10+ year old cars (which still start north of $10k these days).

This unlocks a memory from a long ago time...

... My pastor did a bit on how watching porn makes you gay, because you see the dick. That then makes you get turned on by dick.

It's worth noting that he recently did the same test, with similar temps, in the EV9 (which is also super inefficient on the highway), and got over the EPA range. IIRC most of his range tests exceed EPA numbers.

I mean whoever she ends up running against in the primaries (or general) will have a field day with "she represented her district so poorly she had to change to ours".

Might be intentional. If it was closer/less of a drop, it might just become "another handrail" where the "oh shit I don't want to do this" doesn't happen until after you jump off the net. By making it such a big drop, you increase the chances of that realization happening first, and if the net causes an injury, that might also stop the person from making it to the edge of the net and going over.

Basically, by making it a big drop it's become a bigger obstacle, which could increase effectiveness.
