Idk, I’m not a particularly slow reader but it’s May and I’ve only gotten through two and a half books this year when reading ~40 min per day.

Japanese (稀): rare/seldom

Orto: Ass (not everywhere, but where I lived, it had that meaning) / vegetable garden

Ohh, a vegetable garden in Spanish is “huerto”. Interesting that they’re so close yet so far.

Meh, go have fun.

in your fantasy world where cops don’t exist, who intervenes when someone inevitably commits a crime?

Who intervenes when cops are around, though? I’ve been laughed at in my face and told they couldn’t do anything despite us having proof in the form of a brick through our window. Not even the restraining order was honored.

Or how about the time I got beat up and all they did was allegedly take some notes and tell me they couldn’t do anything because it was private property despite my fresh bruises?

Or them cat-calling a 15 year-old that they’re supposed to be protecting?

Kind of useless if you ask me, and I haven’t even gotten to the malicious stuff like locking up my brother in law for a year and pressuring for ransom and sacking his family’s home.

It’s kind of insane how much we believe in their image rather than rely on their actions to even dare be so condescending.

Oh god no. There are many objectively predatory beliefs and dangerous ideas out there. This is irresponsible.

I was not expecting a literal rainbow road.

Some of us are still getting up to speed.

No, I never lived in a rich town. lol I find it odd you assume that. And mind you, this was in 6 different states between the US and Mexico.

I can’t recall ever having shitty teachers in public schools up until uni. In fact, I got amazing teachers who cared and sometimes went above and beyond. None of them came to school drunk, save for one uni teacher who was also named the top surgeon in my city. 🤷‍♂️

We’ll handle it, thanks. We don’t need the US meddling in our territory.

Me when my wallet doesn’t pass the vibe check

There a few many reasons why plastic bottles aren’t the best option for some medications and it comes down to the technical specifications of the drug as well as drug safety regulations.

Iirc, bottles aren’t optimal for formulations that result in friable (brittle) tablets, or those that need to be packaged in a reduced oxygen environment so that you can take out a tablet individually without exposing all the others to regular air, and so that they’re easy to handle and transport individually without exposure to contaminants in the environment up to the moment that they need to be ingested.

I encourage people to look deeper into pharmaceutical technology. It’s a fascinating field full of surprises.

The streamers I watch are usually incredibly talented and can pull off things I wouldn’t even imagine. They also explain the game at a very high level and can show me the boundaries that I didn’t even know existed. They also experiment with different setups and beat the game in hard mode without breaking a sweat.

Not everyone can pull it off while being entertaining and pleasant, but I think those are the ones worth watching the most.

Troll account. Dude’s history is atrocious and it’s been only one day.

the left as an implicit admission that the left is politically weaker

That’s not my conclusion from all this. Presidents like Biden and Obama cared about the law somewhat and tried to play by the book, which only seems like their hands were tied when they weren’t. The same goes for other politicians who do get away with a lot of shit. The difference is that Trump likes to make a spectacle out of it.

It’s a fair question to ask, given the situation with new accounts.

Does this not look suspicious to you?

Why are we asking loaded questions as a first post in a new account?
