The standard fine for violating the STOCK Act is $200, but frequently the House Committee on Ethics and the Senate Select Committee on Ethics waive the fee.
The penalty is $200, but only if they feel like paying it.
The Philippine military chief on Tuesday said the Chinese coast guard seized one of four food packs dropped by a plane for Filipino navy personnel at a territorial outpost that has been surrounded by Chinese vessels in the disputed waters of the South China Sea....
You’re probably right, but my first thought was Luffy from One Piece, voiced by Mayumi Tanaka in Japanese and Colleen Clinkenbeard in English, both women.
(Also, I can’t get over what a good name Clinkenbeard is for a VA who voices a pirate)
I wouldn’t say the NCR is bad per se. They seem misguided, and there are definitely bad people in it, but most of them do seem to be trying to make the Mojave a better place.
I don’t buy the game trying to tell me Caesar’s justified, though. Traders saying “they keep the raiders at bay,” as if they’re not doing just as much raping and murdering as the raiders.
The only faction I actually like is the Followers of the Apocalypse. They seem like the only ones trying to make things better without serving their own agenda. It’s too bad you can’t do more for them.
Yeah, sorry, I didn’t word that well. The game makes it clear that the legion is the bad guy, I just mean the NPCs who defend the legion don’t make a very good case
I’ve been playing Far Cry 3, and every damn time I launch it the godforsaken Ubisoft launcher makes me verify my password. You know, in case someone tries to fraudulently play my 12 year old game.
I haven’t read it in years, but I enjoyed it when I did. It’s kind of a slice of life of some somewhat hipster young adults in a world that’s mostly the same as ours but with some random bits of advanced technology, most notably sentiment AI that live alongside humans in robot bodies. I really enjoyed it a few years ago, but I have no idea how the story has progressed since then. I’d definitely give it a try if you’re interested.
From what I understand the actor who played her wanted to be in fewer episodes moving forward to pursue other projects, and some asshole producer (Rick Berman is the name from a quick search) responded by writing her out completely.

Those of you who volunteered to be injected with praying mantis DNA, I’ve got some good news and some bad news. Bad news is we’re postponing those tests indefinitely. Good news is we’ve got a much better test for you: fighting an army of mantis men. Pick up a rifle and follow the yellow line on the floor. You’ll know when the test starts.
Yeah, my issue wasn’t with Wesley or with Wheaton. My issue was what a Mary Sue he usually was. They made progress on that front when he was involved in the death of a fellow student performing a dangerous spacecraft stunt, but lost it all and then some when the magic space Native Americans showed up to invite him to Godhood for being the most specialest boy.
True, but in this case I think the meme is referencing the poem by John Donne (which the Hemingway novel is named after):
No man is an island, Entire of itself. Each is a piece of the continent, A part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less. As well as if a promontory were. As well as if a manor of thine own Or of thine friend’s were. Each man’s death diminishes me, For I am involved in mankind. Therefore, send not to know For whom the bell tolls, It tolls for thee.
