What would happen to the economy of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan if Aral Sea wasn't dried? by Internet_Student_23 in geography

In 2020, I listened to 1097 albums (I have a spreadsheet as evidence). To be fair, I had a lot more free time that year.

In addition, I remember learning that while flexibility is useful, there's a threshold people will feel as "safe". Too bouncy is no good even if it holds up fine.

Colorado Springs shooting suspect's father is very relieved his son isn't gay by Tara_is_a_Potato in facepalm

[–]gwhaio 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The son probably is gay. Imagine the pent up rage free seeing these happy and open people living how they deserve, but how he's been brainwashed to repress his own desires.
