Used to belong to a Homebrewing forum (beer, not computer servers), and they had monthly post about someone wanting to infuse their beer with tobacco. Which is where I learned that it will kill ya dead. Tobacco can be used externally to reduce swelling, chew on a wasp sting will prevent a lot of it. Or if you’re looking for trouble late in life I guess you could smoke it also, though that one seems a great deal less compelling to me.

Re-iterate - Don’t eat any food made with tobacco, it will harm you at the very least.

Furthermore, in the negotiations, they have allowed a lot of infrastructure projects to be counted towards this percentage calculations. So, there may not be much in the way of new actual military spending, just improving the roads/rails of the agreeing countries. That seems a lot easier to sell to the folks that are further from Russia.

There’s an AFB or navy base by a lot of bigger cities. The army takes their crazy off into a corner of a state though, so they can play in the field alone.

Nationalism vs Patriotism

Nationalism - identification with one’s own nation and support for its interests, especially to the exclusion or detriment of the interests of other nations.

Patriotism - the quality of being patriotic; devotion to and vigorous support for one’s country.

I think Moon Unit Zappa might have one of the most unique names. Or perhaps her brother Dweezil Zappa. There’s a lot of countries that wouldn’t even allow a child to be named that. (thank goodness)

Sweet, the Russian army gets more meat for it’s grinder. You would think Russian serfs would be more careful about breaking the law during these mass sacrifice times.

It is the sky. The sky is raining. Or the clouds, the clouds are raining. Either of those two would be a great answer to what “it” is.

I want you to start with the idea that I’m an idiot, but don’t those exist to be a fire escape from the basement? Wouldn’t filling it in negate that, or at least make it more difficult? Again, idiot that lives in the state with the water line two inches below the ground (Florida), which prevents us from making basements.

If that’s not true, maybe you’ll get someone that comes here to tell me how wrong I am, and gives you great ideas to do with the ‘not fire escape’.

The other onions became obsolete after the sweet onion was bred.

Dog muzzles are not to stop them from barking. They can still make all the noise, a muzzle is to protect people from their sharp teeth.

Oh it think everybody, except the twenty people that told her she was going to be president, do in fact blame those 20 people.

But I think most of the democratic voters are going to choose the lesser of two evils (would be beautiful to vote for someone), so getting a candidate that gets more non-voters to show up is way better than getting people to change their politics. I would guess that would mean more progressive policies anyway, as those tend to have a greater impact on most people’s lives.

Shouldn’t be turning people away that are apologetic, but don’t think the path to victory lies there. All the people that are sitting out elections are the ones that should be targeted. So few of eligible voters are actually doing so.

I have a family set up with my brother, two childhood friends, and one of the friends wife. They don’t check anything, just have to be invited to join.

And atm, ive been playing Oblivion at the same time as my friend, just have to go offline before starting the game.

I was not aware of this, thank you for educating me.

He has ended folks free will several times, because folks be sinnin’. The bible contends that was just, so there’s plenty of options to stop people from hording wealth.

But my contention is that he doesn’t exist, and if he does, he is the most immoral being.

“He stacked the Supreme Court in his favor (2 of the 3 he appointed helped steal the 2000 election for Bush)”

Fucking, what!?

Quiet, he’s trying to be persecuted. Don’t point out the obvious.

I relate to this as a parent.

It is literally impossible to get unbiased news. Everyone will have their personal beliefs bleed into what they saw/how they recount the event. More so for companies that send people out into the world to gather said news.

There is just more/less transparency on the bias.

I should note, they said plasma donation, which in the US are usually places that will pay you for the “donation”. The blood banks also take plasma donations, but I don’t think they will pay. Plasma donation is something that seems to be marketed to people that are just barely getting by. And so people lying about their conditions tend to make more sense, as they are just trying to find ways to make ends meet, or have just a little bit of money to spend after expenses.
