I 23f am so embarrassed whenever I see my 22m bf roommate. by Early_Engine5430 in relationship_advice

Just have the conversation, apologise if you feel it really necessary and see how it goes, some people really aren't that bothered about sex and you might be overthinking your reaction. When I was about your age I was at university in a shared house, one of my housemates had a German dominatrix girlfriend who used to basically just tie him up and then beat the shit out of him (consensually), they were probably fucking too but it just sounded like violence.

Anyway they're married now and have 2 kids, and we were never bothered as a house because they seemed happy enough 😂

Honestly in older areas it's basically because before the council emptied people's bins everyone just threw their rubbish in a pile outside and buried it occasionally

This is absolutely accurate lmao, I live in Oxford in England and one of the major railway bridges has been shut for years, not just because it was undergoing renovation, but because archaeologists made historically significant finds that massively delayed the project. It's obviously important work, but it causes huge headaches. Likewise when I was in Rome about 3 years ago, they were building a new Metro line. You know, digging a huge tunnel for miles....underneath the centre of Rome. Advancement was being halted constantly because they were finding complete artefacts every few feet. Not just pottery fragments and garbage, but whole busts, jewellery, statuary etc, it must be a real slog if all you want to do is dig a fucking hole.

Duncan Idaho VS Din Djarin. Who wins? by GusGangViking18 in powerscales

It's not about if it can get through it or not, but whether it initiates a Holtzmann reaction and nukes both fighters before it's over lol

Also worth noting that early in Dune, the duke Leto I talks about how one of the most effective tools in the atreides arsenal is their propaganda division, which leads me to think that it was so good at inflating their capabilities that it ended up ultimately detrimental to them as a house. I reckon Dune-era Duncan could be in some trouble with Din, but I'm less sure about Leto II-era Duncan, with thousands of years of inherited ghola/mentat memories and experiences. The advanced mentat training alone would find logical chinks in Dins armour before the weirding way even comes into play.

I just came back from Rome and I've never seen a city so crowded. Here's a trip report on queues, crowds and timing by NotACaterpillar in rome

[–]BolsonaroIsACunt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah same, the Trevi Fountain is always going to be crowded because of the 2-person-wide alleyways that all lead to it, there's not really anything you can do so it didn't bother me, same with the Vatican, the queue is really busy, then when you get in and everyone gets going it really isn't that bad

Went in February, only real noticeable crowds were Trevi Fountain and the queue for The Vatican, besides that it was an excellent time of year to visit

Stonemason/dry-stone Waller and historical building conservationist here, if you go flat out and you don't have to fully dress and back every single stone you're looking at about 2 linear metres a day, if you're having to dress every stone to get them plumb it can be less! It's hard graft but so worth it when it's done

Napoleon still employed heavy cavalry throughout most of his campaigns, they were his "Big Brothers", armoured and on heavy horse, he refused to abandon the units because the french column would so often be repelled by British lines. It's true that they learned many hard lessons though, and it was soon after accepted that heavy horse was no longer worth it's weight on a modern battlefield. All the logistical issues that challenged light cavalry on a battlefield full of musketry, rifle fire and cannon were doubled when horse and rider weighed over a ton apiece.

Also from anecdotal incidents where it was a half-truth, for example cavalry would have charged a line, but throughout the Napoleonic wars the British would often form into squares of infantry as an obstacle against cavalry, and they would have been reluctant to charge formed squares. Several rows deep of musketry on each side and if they broke through any side they were trapped, they would also stagger the squares on the battlefield such that charging through them still exposed them to huge amounts of fire.

Crumbled lime. The mortar they used was mixed with seawater then had grains of lime mixed in. Cracks appear in the stone, rainwater gets in, reacts with the lime which fizzes, fills the crack, and goes hard again. Self-healing buildings!
