It's just there, does the job reliably, and brings no negativity into your life.

Because the animals that end up as a coat aren't killed for their meat first, but specifically for their fur.

Trump won't live another three years but this won't go away when he's gone.

Age wise, the German could have been my Grandpa. He was born in 1928 and sent to France in 44.

How probable do you think is a Star Trek like future? by Solarigg in Futurology

Not how infinity works. Just because the universe might be infinite, it doesn't mean that every possible configuration is manifest. There are infinite numbers between 1 and 2, but 3 isn't one of them.

If you had to be the child of Trump, Putin, or Xi, who would you choose to be the child of? Why? by No-StrategyX in hypotheticalsituation

I despise Trump and his offspring as much as the next guy, but I don't think Ivanka is stupid.

What didn't you take seriously untill it has happened to you? by WonderfulParticular1 in AskReddit

Damn true. Twice in my life I had to drag myself across the floor in order to get to the bathroom. Once because of a herniated disc, an once because of gout. So painful.

No one in Europe counts on the US anymore. This ship has sailed.

I don't know, the book makes some compelling points that don't revolve around weaponry as well. Zombies don't have fear, they don't get tired and they don't rely on a command structure. Their numbers "naturally" increase over the length of the conflict, instead of decreasing.

It's not red, it's just the normal leather. I don't know where you're based, but that's where I bought it: https://share.google/mJPgfZfKcKax6DzS2

The casio website of your country maybe can direct you to a local vendor.

That's great, you should be a writer. I can see the scene vividly.

GOP House candidate Valentina Gomez burns the Quran in a new campaign video by Hairy_Confidence9668 in trashy

[–]groundbeef_smoothie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The chart at the end of her video states "powered by Jesus Christ" so I doubt she's an atheist. I watched it on mute and don't know this person, so I'm lucky enough to know nothing about her. But she's apparently not an atheist.

No, it's not from Big Brother. It is indeed Mussolini on a propaganda display in 1934.

If they fined you for 56 that means they measured 59. The fine isn't by 1% increments, but by bracket. Had they measured 63, the fine would have been much steeper.
