Fine. Have a reasonable and factual answer if you must.

@lain

Were there no consequences for murder as a 13yo?

@Hyolobrika
In most people's houses, of course, they wouldn't have to bother as people bug their own houses on the government's behalf.

And that time was on the 18th.

I'm always surprised at people explicitly looking for a wife (is it a generational thing?), but also I'm clearly not the person to ask how...

This past weekend early on one of the guys in my delegation chat was like "Do y'all think I can find a wife here?"
I told him hard no - check the ratio in the room.
Later in the same con: other dude takes the stage to publicly propose to a woman he met at an that con in an earlier year.

Took me nearly a year from tooth extraction to implant completion. Kept coming in and them telling me, "No, not healed enough for the next step yet. Come back in 2 [months/weeks] and we'll check again."

Though, to be fair, it was a 3-tooth extraction all at once, and as soon as it was finished I was warned that "We normally don't have to use so much force. You're going to be in a lot of pain."

@lain Do you have the kind of implant where on an X-Ray you can see the big bolt into your jaw? I just got my first one of those guys finished recently. I can very much tell which one it is, though I've been losing track of my various root canals.

Perhaps less flash, more mob?

@icedquinn
I hope it's for the best and/or sorry to hear that, as the case may be. Take care of yourself.

Who exactly is "imprisoned by the Capitalist system"?

The US is not a particularly Capitalist country. There's nothing even remotely capitalist in any meaningful sense about the state including its criminal system.

Don't just say "Capitalist" when you mean "I don't like". So annoying.

Or perhaps just the term is misapplied. I saw a really cool video about... basically robot concrete pouring & shaping... built 95%+ of the house in an automated way (once a human drove the truck there).

Maybe not economically reasonable where you live or whatever, but I see nothing fundamentally wrong with the approach.

@lain
My intro to psyche textbook claimed he did.
And I'm like, "Are you seriously posthumously analyzing Freud?"

@vriska @lain
I made the mistake of living in Ohio as a young man and can confirm.The only state I've lived in with no noticeable upside.

Maybe it would've been different if I were in Columbus or something. I was in a small town outside Akron if that clears things up any.

I don't think it's just Americans. War benefits very, very few people. It takes quite a bit to get normal folks truly on-board with a war on the other side of the globe.
