Man, if only the Irish had thought of that. (The Irish were not cuturally predisposed to start rumors about infidelity, sadly)

Ahh, I hope everyone does ok going forward.
I will genuinely miss the old crew, you all had a chemistry that was one in a million. I hope the new pod will be as fun and I will absolutely tune in.
SKULL OF THOMAS AQUINAS: TAKE A LEFT NOW
PRIEST: No, the GPS says we have to keep going—
SKULL: I KNOW A SHORTCUT

SKULL: FOR THOSE WITH FAITH, NO EVIDENCE IS NECESSARY; FOR THOSE WITHOUT IT, NO EVIDENCE WILL SUFFICE
This is not a terribly useful reply but... Diarmaid MacCulloch's "Christianity: The First Three Thousand Years" is a fantastic book on this. I am, very very slowly working my way through it
@terriblemapshq.bsky.social, this yours?
I swear to whatever, I'm going back to Dyophysitism
And the hunter has no firearm? I think there's a Chekhov's-lack-of-gun here that is going to feature later
I was shocked to find out that buffalo wings aren't from actual winged buffalos
He had every reason to think that. He kept his faculty post even after losing Harvard close to $2 billion in cash in 2008 due to phenomenally bad investment choices that he directed personally
Leeloo from the 5th element gesturing "come here" to someone she's about to kick the butt of
Mmm, even if we're narrowing it to the 5th element I'm putting Mondoshawans 3rd after Leeloo (1st) and the Diva
I feel like devs haven't done that because it could be gamed so easily. A bot can follow you, reply, then unfollow you, no trouble at all.
If they could do it for "people who have followed me for more than 24 hours" that might work but might be harder to code
And, to them, it's even worse because it's on Valentine's day
Play it like the main quest ends with "Open Season". Nothing after that is as fun.
You have to assume that anything that could be damaged by falling ice is already long gone (except people and pets)
I hope you've already learned not to walk too close under eaves and overhangs
As an I/T person supporting infrastructure for techies:
"What are you really trying to do?"
9-shelf bookcase sized for mass-market paperbacks exclusively
Very nice. Much nicer than mine, which desperately needs organizing
Same here, went on hundreds of rides when you could get a Prius for $5.25/hour and they were everywhere
But do cards not still work? I tried the app like twice when my first card wore out, decided hell no, and got a new card, which didn't do the photo thing. Haven't used it in a year though
This was Boston mayor Kevin White's style, and it got him enormous support despite being not much of a people-person.
If the fire department was called out to a house fire, excellent chance White would be there checking on people
I bet only like 8 people will remember this game, but:
The siege cannon in Homeworld Cataclysm
When I lecture to students about how the apparently thriving economy of the 1920s was really a house of cards just waiting to be knocked down, one of the points I stress is how much a small number of the very rich were essentially propping up consumer spending in unsustainable ways
Impressive results, and that looks like a really careful and thorough study, too
OK, not the main point, but a Bad Lawyer Pod discord sounds freaking awesome
In a study following 23 million people age 18-59 (pretty young) for 4 years…despite the fact that the ones who got the COVID vaccine were overall older and sicker at baseline, they not only had 74% lower risk of dying from COVID than the unvaccinated but 25% lower risk of dying from any other cause!
Ah, then right. They seem to be good enough though, I see a tailgater probably once a week but I've never seen anyone go over the top. I certainly wouldn't try it.
In Boston every station has at least one gate that's wheelchair-width, apparently always at one end or the other. Also handy for bikes. No gate agent required, since most of them are unattended.
If you ever do a prequel and recreate the conversation that BIL had with the rice wholesaler, that created a 1000x misunderstanding, it would be awesome
Even if people didn't want SVB's product, some insurance companies have "excess deposit insurance" which covers losses due to bank defaults beyond the FDIC limits. Some banks in MA advertise they do this for all their accounts
The bailout was a subsidy for free-riders.
No kidding. My first reaction was "wait which daughter is that".
Being an ex-first-lady must be awesome
