How do you know that you are talking to Tiff’s folks? What’s the due diligence here?

And more importantly, what are the risks to all parties for not verifying this?

Always partner with other parents when minor children are spending time under your roof. The same rules apply if the minor child is 7 years old or 17 years and 364 days.

I have family in the medical field (ER nurse and travelling nurse). The ER nurse said that the younger people come in with sex-related traumatic injury more, but the older people come in with more STIs.

The travelling nurse frequents rehab facilities (nursing homes) for both mentally handicapped and geriatric care. He said that there is a very similar amount of STIs between both facilities, basically meaning that they are getting physical about the same amount.

There is a reason why retirement homes and nursing facilities are the #2 highest locations for STIs, behind college campuses.

It would be whelming. Just so.

The main issue I see comes from regular headlights being replaced with LEDs and other High-Intensity bulbs. Don’t get me wrong, Bubba with his lift kit is just redneck high-beams, but I get more frequent glare from someone in a Sentra who decided to put LEDs in her stock headlight assembly that wasn’t made for LEDs.

I disagree with this.

A mirror of the other hand…

Plus, think about the logistics of that.

Goods produced in the US are categorically more expensive due to infrastructure, cost of living (and therefore wage expectations). If we could wave a magic wand to transplant an effective manufacturing facility from Pakistan and place it in rural Mississippi, hire Americans to do the work, and begin pumping out goods, the price to produce the goods would increase substantially.

Americans wouldn’t be able to afford American made goods, which is true even now. Many Americans try to buy American “when possible”, but cost quickly outweighs patriotism.

Different pipes, but same orifice I suppose. You aren’t eating through your bronchioles. I assure you, if you attempt to eat or drink through your bronchioles, you’re going to have a bad day, which i believe is your point.

Ol’ Dorky D has principals, I suppose.

GrapheneOS.

Putting a comment here to commemorate when I initially interacted with the time travellers.

You can literally request Nintendo IP there. Doesn’t mean that it will come true, but I requested literally all Mario amd Zelda games as soon as I found out.

There is no comparable equal to those titles on PC.

Well, this guilty person stood up, plead guilty, and accepted the sentencing.

That is the key difference. People who will never admit fault or guilt will invariably delay the end of the trial and resulting sentence.

I’ve seen this episode of Black Mirror.

I was there. In the ancient times.

I liked it. I’ve been around people who sing lyrics to fit certain moments or emotions. I found it to be pretty spot-on. “Real” musicals aren’t realistic.

A hypothetical person could gather up about 10 boxes of microwave popcorn.

That peraon could then gather up as many microwaves as possible from the shelves.

He or she coukd evenly distribute the microwaves across the store. They coukd even place two or three around the HVAC intake ducts.

That nefarious individual could remove all filters from the HVAC intake ducts.

If lead to do so, the person could put 1 bag of microwave popcorn in each microwave.

Feasibly, they coukd also start each microwave on high for 60 minutes.

The anecdotal smell of burnt popcorn would permeate and last for months. If you think burnt popcorn wouldn’t be that bad, then I would wager that you’ve never been in an office building that was evacuated for the burning chemical smell of one bag of popcorn left too long.

Only works until the initial sludge is cleared. I would bet it would be relatively clear water by head 3.

Now, if you take that scissor lift and attach something that can rip the head off, attach the same thing to ALL heads, and then attach those to one forklift and drive out of the building… that would do it.
