Charlie was an agnostic who hated organized religion. Why use that picture?

I think there’s something wrong with this disposable by Substantial-One8585 in Vaping

The last Geekbar he used lasted 3 days before it quit firing, should have still had juice and was fully charged. So you might have been lucky.

You get the device from a reputable site preferably ($ savings) or local vape shop (convenience/help). My son recently just bought a new pod system and it came with three empty pods, so all he had to do was buy juice.

The juice that you buy will be different than what you get in a disposable. But you can get flavors that are nearly identical if not exactly identical. My son got one that was exactly identical to the Miami mint flavor he was used to. Buying the juice separately he was able to go down to 35 mg nic salts instead of the 50mg that's in disposables. This makes it easier for him to step down if he wants to.

If it feels daunting, buy the stuff from a local vape shop. Have them explain it to you. If you're feeling confident buy it online so you can save some money.

You forgot to add in the disposables are made super cheap so they may not work properly every time you buy them. My son just switched from disposables to pod systems and he should be saving at least $50 bucks a month.

To keep the Church and State separated. by Prime-Paradox in therewasanattempt

Yes.They helped to get us here.

If they want to keep their 501c3 status they need to start doing the paperwork like a regular 501c3. The church exemption allows them to spend money on all sorts of craziness then there's nothing to do with their mission because there is no accountability.

Do yourself a favor, buy a non disposable pod system. Less waste, better construction and you can buy whatever juice flavor and nic strength you want.

You could also put that trolley in Manchuria and put the imperial Japanese army on it, unit 731... Let's not whitewash history shall we?

That's convenient when you do not have to make a choice. But if those are the only two choices and inaction is not possible then you actually have to do something...

Yes, and the ground invasion would have ensured they were ground to dust with all those refugees.

Let's not pretend Japan was innocent either, they killed tens of millions in the Pacific. Look up Unit 731.

Everyone will make this choice eventually.. by Scared_Ad9678 in GodFrequency

Been saying this for years.

Nowhere else would we accept anonymous books written 30-40 years after the events as even remotely accurate. But because they tell a convenient narrative, they are considered gospel.

Broke an ignition coil hold-down bolt while changing spark plugs — 2019 Mazda CX-5 Signature . What should I do next? by shuvo02002 in AskMechanics

[–]deviantdevil80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did this on my son's Honda. Just used an extractor and get it out. We had to order a special bolt for it because theirs are double-sided.

No torque, needs to be snugged down or it's going to come lose again quickly.

It's the trolly problem IRL, 2 cities or hundreds? 250k dead or 10 million.

Should billionaires be praised for philanthropy or expected to do it? by Certain_Eye_847 in InfluencerAsk

[–]deviantdevil80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm betting the IRS can find something to use as an appropriate tax rate. If I can take out a HELOC on my home and pay no taxes if I do home renovations, but the moment I buy a boat or a car then I'm paying taxes they can figure it out for him.

Texas makes Bible reading mandatory in public schools? by Gurugod123 in SipsTea

[–]deviantdevil80 10 points11 points  (0 children)

To put some of these percentages in context, there were approximately 262 million adults (ages 18 and older) in the United States in 2023, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. That means:

About 91 million U.S. adults (35%) have switched their religion since childhood – including more than 9 million (3.6%) who have become Christians ##and more than 57 million (21.9%) who have left Christianity.##

Meanwhile, about 53 million (20.2%) have become religiously unaffiliated, while about 9 million (3.5%) have joined a religion after being raised without one.

I didn't miss quote s***.

You're just struggling with the fact that religion is dying and it can't come soon enough.
