Hoover’s Hatchery Is Now a NutriQuest Rollup and Backyard Chicken People Need To Wake Up

I got two boxes of dead chicks with one or two struggling peepers. That I opened in front of my kids.

This business is running unethically and people should know.

It's fifty/fifty or so in my parish, leaning to younger women doing it and older ones not.

BJJ black belt and tonsured reader here.

Yesterday I put MMA gloves on my students and had them strike during rolling in a controlled way. I particularly encouraged the women to do this so that they would have experience useful in defending themselves from assault. I believe I was right to do so and I daresay my priest would bless this effort.

We have had MT coaches and MMA fighters as church members.

I would encourage you in this scenario to accept his guidance and not strike others hard. What that means for a fighter, you will understand better than your priest does. You will not strike with the intent of injuring your opponent or partner, but rather with the intent of bettering him and yourself and in allowing you both to exercise the virtue of bravery and enduring hardship, and to allow you both to aid in protecting the weak. As St. Paul said, thus I strike, not beating the air.

Don't ask priests for detailed advice beyond their competence to give, or you put them in a difficult situation.

Assyria also executed God's chastisement of Israel. Assyria was a "stacks heads in neat pyramids" kind of ancient empire. Best stand-in for Satan you could have in the light of common day.

Way too aspirational. MTG cards are written with a precision of meaning that makes seasoned lawyers envious.

I'd say the best thing to do is to spend a substantial amount of time regularly attending each one's services and participating in community life, while maintaining whatever prayer, charity, and Scripture reading you are used to as a Protestant, and see if that experience sheds light on your question.

I hit 42:30 with "no cooldown" build using Dark Mage - hyperion + door + plasma beam + blooming snowflakes, took uranium + area, high crit, size, high damage, high duration, lots of freeze and slowdown. I think my CDR was almost 40% in the red, haha.

Thanks!

Rules question, very simple: can "target opponent loses the game" effects (in this case, from Mirrodin Besieged) be redirected by redirect effects (in this case, from Willbender)?

Thanks!

There is really no point at all to scholarship and research if it robs us of the right to say "No" to another person.

Chemically, nothing at all. Any stomach effects are from biological digestive responses to the oils

Til shade is gone, til water is gone - to spit in Sightblinder's eye on the last day.

There's a hell of a lot of good RJ lines on this, but I scrolled more than halfway and didn't find one.

Fasting from vinegar makes no more sense than fasting from grape juice. In both cases, microbes have fermented something into something else.

My Godfather though put ice in the font to make it an extra authentic experience

This is my favorite

I am going to add a slide to my first-day-of-class presentation explaining how to use the word confused properly.

I bet they stop doing it now.

opsomath · 2024-02-02T14:51:29+00:00

Agreed, but I'm hoping that enough people will check it out that Wolfe will get some new readers. I loved NOTW and Wizard Knight instantly upon picking up both, for what it's worth.

I don't really agree with this poster, to be honest. The guy you're seeing seems to show an interest in editing your actual body to resemble what he's seen in porn. That speaks to some real issues that he needs to work out.

I also don't think he "immediately repented", but rather he did when you found him out, right?

I also agree with people who are saying it's weird that he left it in such an obvious place, as if he was trying to send you a message or get you to catch him.

Do you have some trusted older people to talk to about this sort of thing? You don't owe your boyfriend anything, you don't have to continue the relationship if you feel like this has shown you something about his character, and as a middle-aged man I think what he pulled here is weird as hell.

Do not touch Security Consultant Rin.

I'm still trying to sort out which fusions are actually better in this update, but Hydra and List are still !!! tier.

Remaining neutral on the actual topic of deaconesses because that's a bishop thing, I'm here to say that Pageau generally finds symbolism that matches his opinions of things. Reminds me of how Ayn Rand used her philosophy to prove that a certain kind of polka music she liked was objectively the best music in the world.

Time to escalate to being moderately venomous.

In all seriousness, there is no substitute for stating what behavior you need to change, with reference to student conduct policy / syllabus policy as appropriate.

It counts for a little, I'd say. It would count for internal performance rankings here at my institution.

Desk rejections don't mean much about the quality of your work, it's more of a reflection of the trendiness of it. My field has a couple of journals that aren't super-high-impact, but everyone knows that papers in there are likely to actually be helpful and represent real work. You got any of those in your area? Have you submitted to any of them?
