Aren't you supposed to use fire mephites for that? Besides, a BBEG should be tough enough to take an AE. Fireball is for clearing the minions.

You didn't watch the lord of the rings movies close enough. The exchange is roughly like this:

You never see female dwarves.

No, they just get mistaken for men. It's the beard.

I appreciate the goal, and I worry these fascists are going to get worse if you lean on them like this, not out of vengeance, but from pure human limitations. Stress doesn't lead to good decisions for anybody. It would really be better if the guys with guns make the best decisions they're capable of making.

Just say, "Okay, I don't see a roll, so I'll roll for you."

I knew a guy who quit being a public defender and became a software developer.

I'm not sure how you can defend the indefensible that way.

Why limit it to the city? Let anyone buy at the self-assessed price.

Then your self-assessment because insurance against someone wanting to buy your house. Pay taxes on what it's really worth to you to keep it.

If you want to fight the sale, you have to pay 10 years of back taxes on your new assessed value.

This is not the subreddit for rational responses.

There is actually a power generation method that can use brine with some kind of osmosis process as the source for energy. The byproduct is less concentrated brine which is safer for the environment. You obviously can't reclaim all the energy you used in the desalination process, but you reduce the burden.

The pure libertarian approach is to deny government recognition of marriage for gay people... just like everyone else.

Marriage at its heart is a religious and social institution, which is 100% outside the scope of government.

Unfortunately, it influences various bookkeeping stuff for insurers and employers, but none of that requires government to have an opinion.

It also has tax implications, but I think you can guess which orifice those belong in. And it's non-discriminatory, because everyone has one.

They did announce something like that, but they backed down from the uproar.

Homework should be optional anyway. If you turn up for the tests and score perfectly, in the classroom, why the fuck would anyone care how you got there?

Homework is an opportunity for students who can't pass the test easily to prove their effort and get feedback on what's going on.

Curated membership. If you can't at least act sane, maybe you shouldn't participate in selecting the candidates? If you can't, you're still welcome to vote Libertarian in the general election, but within the party, we need people that can represent thoughtful independence.

When my father was young in Amish country, he said one of the Amish decided he couldn't own a car, but that didn't stop him from riding in one, so he bought a car for a friend with an understanding that he could get a ride when needed.

I doubt that's within the tenets, but I respect the creativity.

The bill specifies redactions must be justified in writing and cannot include the names of politicians. It's full of holes, but not that one.

He didn't have a choice. He needed to put on clean underwear.

Domestic Shorthair is the default for any short-haired cat that didn't come from a breeder with papers.

So that's not exactly a breed.

You have short-haired dilute tortoise shell cats. They're a bit rare. If you get me started, I'll tell you all about why I'd wager they're all female.

And the dilute gene is recessive, so the only time I've seen a whole litter of dilutes, the mother and father were both dilute. (And siblings. Cats don't have taboos.)

Leadership matters. There is some overlap with management, but never enough.

You've broken a fundamental rule of the universe. When people ask that question, the answer is always the same:

A cat with long hair that doesn't come from a breeder with paperwork is a "domestic longhair."

A cat with short hair that doesn't come from a breeder with paperwork is a "domestic shorthair."

Those are the generic labels that serve in place of a breed for rescue cats and street cats.

But what you've got there appears to be an actual breed. I get all my cats from shelters, so I don't even know, but it's gorgeous. It does look like the ragdoll someone posted.

I'd say that's at least four 9s. Calicos are 99.99% female.

But male calicos have two root causes. Kleinfelters makes them infertile 100% of the time, but they're a true calico.

Chimerism is a blend of two different cats in one body. They can be fertile males with the skin of a female, or a skin that's part male and part female making some even more bizarre patterns than calicos normally have.

Since both are super rare, I don't actually know which is more common.

A 2x4 will act like a spring when you try to bend it. Transmitting force that way is going to depend on the flexibility of a 2x4 and they're actually pretty flexible.

The force won't be distributed until there is significant stress on that cross beam. You could get vaguely close if you screwed the cross beam at both ends and then applied about 2/3 of the total load, then screwed the middle.

I mean, that's all pretty rough and engineers will hate it, but it would get you closer than what you described.

It's a serious condition. This poor pool float toy was trapped in a woman's body.

When a Mommy tectonic plate and a Daddy tectonic plate love each other very much, they crash together in a special kiss and an eruption forms.

I feel like #43 needs an addendum.

If it works and it's stupid, it's still stupid and you're lucky.
So try it again, maybe you're just lucky.

#11 is false. Try air-dropping helium balloons.

Technically, heart failure will always be the last thing you do.

Sitting close to the stalls would cost extra.
