When I accidentally spilled some (unheated) chicken broth on my dog the other day, I hoped it might teach her a lesson about being in the kitchen when I’m preparing food. It did not.
This’ll probably be an “agree to disagree,” but I think most websites do make good faith efforts to lower bot usage. Not because I trust them or anything, but because the perception that bot spam is out of control is bad for their bottom line. It drives away real users and high bot activity makes advertisers disinclined to trust that the high traffic is of any value.
Your hypothetical interpretation is as generous as you can reasonably be. Some people manage to sincerely believe “He had no idea” and it’s ridiculous.
Hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars is a small price to pay to avoid putting even the slightest amount of pressure on Israel. Imagine how awkward that might be.
The Biden administration’s report on whether Israel has violated U.S. and international humanitarian law during the war in Gaza has been delayed and will no longer be released Wednesday as planned, three Senate aides and a House aide told POLITICO....
“It’s also the populations fault that our lobbying to keep them reliant on our product is working. They shouldn’t have elected such bribeable politicians.”
Frankly those exceptions are just empty rhetoric anyway. The legal process for obtaining one takes too long to have the abortion. If they wanna shoot themselves in the foot by not even making an empty gesture, fine.
“Unfortunately the terms of this ceasefire don’t include the death of every Palestinian in the world and also a complementary blowjob for me, so we can’t accept it.”
Democrats stepped in to support bringing the aid package to the floor, in a remarkable breach of custom on a key vote that paved the way for its passage....
The main republican objection seems to be that it needs to include “border security”, ignoring that they nuked a border bill with everything they wanted in it a few months ago because Trump asked them to. When it comes time to put up or shut up, they refuse to put up and don’t have the decency to shut up. They must think their voters are incredibly stupid.
I conquered Koholint island finally! I really enjoyed my time playing Link’s Awakening. I can’t believe they fit a whole Legend of Zelda game on Gameboy! I really enjoyed it...
This whole kerfuffle seems so stupid. Biden didn’t take any memory tests, didn’t get evaluated by a psychiatrist or any memory experts, and nobody authoritative on the topic of memory or brain function was involved.
A fair and accurate headline would have been “Republican lawyer thinks Biden is senile.” A republican has that opinion? Stop the fucking presses
In the past games since Dark Souls, the DLCs have consistently been some of the highest quality parts of the games. If they can do that for Elden Ring, that’s good cause for getting hyped.
