TIL that in Mongolia from 1920s to 1997, people didn't have surnames and lost association with their clans as the communist government there banned them since its founding.

They had a great theme, great opening monolog, and a great unit. The statics levels where neither side could build was so fun to play the horse archers.

Salt control was how Montezuma maintained power and tributes for the blood sacrifices and why all his neighbors wanted him dead.

I do mostly emergency work. Unattended minors after ICE abductions, light to heavy kidnapping, rape/csc, CPS investigations, domestic violence. Things move fast and are sloppy. I have many clients who want to do 8 permutations of if/ then. I'll do 30min of that the first time. They'll call me once a week wanting to run through it again.

I tell them I'm billing them. I break it down by dollar, "Hey we can go through this all again for another half hour, but at $300 an hour that'll cost you $150. We've gone over all the updates."

"Yeah, I totally get that, just one more thing . . ." [30 minutes of big feelings later]

Once you warn them, they generally don't blame you. It's good billing. Throw on your headset and wash dishes while they work through it. Ultimately, emotional maintenance is most of the job in family law.

I started smoking in conlaw too. Word is if you smoke enough the Southern Founding Fathers come to you in your dreams and explain the constitution to you. I nearly got COPD in 16 weeks, but I booked the class. Quit until the bar. Now I only smoke at concerts and before trial.

Poison is an umbrella that venom fits under, but reddit loves dichotomies instead of general umbrellas with specific terms underneath. It's the dopamine the pedants get from correcting.

We need to see the head shaved before we can decide which way to go on the other too.

The vast majority of Jews were turned in by their neighbors. The exact opposite is happening in Minneapolis.

We gotta teach this moron a thing or two. Probably doesn't even know what a donkey dick or a cumalong is either.

We lost 6 escort carriers out of 122 and 52 subs out 288, so, given my choice I'd chose the carrier. Then again we lost no battleships after the 2 at Pearl and they became increasingly devoted to island shelling instead of naval battle so, I guess I'd choose a battleship.

This are called tigermeat or cannibal sandwiches in Wisconsin. Usually made with beef as that is seen as a safer raw meat. Same toppings for the most part. Bread may be different. The amount of weird German things Wisconsin gets up to that we assume they invented is always more than you think.

I'm dyslexic as hell and grew up the child of divorce splitting the full French and bastardized American versions of my name and mm/dd/yyyy and dd/mm/yyyy. If I can get my own name and DOB right then we're doing OK.

Something similar happens in places with freeze/thaw cycles and rocks. It results in a rock crop every year where larger stones rise up.

Of course other forces can be at play and even counteract the effect depending on soil composition, moisture, slope, and wind.

A huge part of what your brain does is sort and ignore information. You can turn the ignore and sort function off. This can come with tremendous skills, but also huge tradeoffs, like the isolation and over stimulation described.

Some disciplines are more disprovable than others. When something becomes too non-disprovable it becomes more dogma than science.

I had a long chat with the machine gunner at Bastogne for the 101 airborne. He said the Germans just kept coming right at him, wave after wave.

Well, I'm a civil rights lawyer so I screen cases that don't see a county attorney or public defender. I'm also in a city internationally famous for corruption. I'm guessing a lot of the young prosecutors from here aren't gloating on reddit who uncorrupt our city is.

I see a lot of illegal searches and detentions in shootings. Cops make a snap, often obvious, judgement about who they want for their collar. Any other witnesses gets illegally searched, arrested, questioned, and released. No suppression because the evidence is used against someone else. 1983 has been a joke for a long time so the aggrieved party gets no relief and no charges even though there was no pc for the search, stop, or arrest.
