Guns don’t work like video game guns. You can shoot a person 10 times and inflict 10 fatal wounds, and they can still keep coming at you.
If you aim for the head, who is behind them? A bullet doesn’t just stop when it hits something.
What the chance you’ll miss? A bullet can go a long way if it doesn’t hit your target.
People take time to die. Other people can be behind your target. Guns don’t protect, they only kill.
I don’t see how this applies to guns.
If your house is on fire, you would want a fire extinguisher, not another flamethrower.
If other countries threatened/targeted members of the heritage foundation instead of enlisted soldiers.
It’s very easy (for sociopaths) to ignore threats on other people’s lives.
I’ve had migraines and anxiety, but not often at the same time. From personal experience, they aren’t usually related. I have had a panic attack that felt exactly like a heart attack though, so I know that anxiety can cause many physical side effects.
I’d recommend getting medical advice even if it’s just for the headaches. There may be anxiety involved, but I don’t think it’s just anxiety.
If it is just anxiety, then you’ll be able to relax more easily knowing that there is nothing physical to worry about.
If a black* person hands in a letter to guarantee that it’s received on time, and the worker is racist and believes it a tax form, they could just leave it for a few days/weeks before processing to guarantee that it’s late.
*Replace with any marginalised group or person. It could even include you.
Some of the voter suppression involved having a single voting place for a large area, and closing it at 5pm even though there was a very long line of people still waiting to vote.
If you can’t guarantee your postal vote will be counted, and you can’t guarantee that you’ll get into a voting booth, what do you do?
I agree with the sentiment of voting however you can. It’s one of the few ways that people get to decide how the country is run. I’m just angry that this right is being gradually taken away.
That is also assuming the lights are not recessed into the ceiling.
And the even more egregious assumption that you could even reach the lightbulb.
I said I’d return it in a week or 2 and I will. There’s no need to remind me every year.
I prefer mm/yy/dd or 2013.158904109.
For Android, F-Droid provides only open source apps. It also has a section for downloading other stores.
Written on a window: “Please use door ->”.
The window only goes down to waist height, it doesn’t even look like a door. I really want to know the story behind that sign.
I don’t think there ever was such a time. I suspect that you (like me) just didn’t need things to work as a child, so didn’t notice when things didn’t.
There are some very old complaints of things not working.
€120M compared to his promised $700B (€600B) bonus is 0.02% or (assuming 365 days per year, 12 hours per day) is equivalent to 56 minutes of work.
It has about the same disincentive as a $7 fine for a minimum wage worker.
This is only considering the bonus and ignoring any income on top of that. He can afford it without even thinking.
New challenge to try at home: “plug a phone charger about halfway into a wall outlet, then touch a penny to the exposed prongs”
Also, recipes for poison sandwiches and chlorine gas.
For those who’ve lived a life of luxury, equality can feel like oppression.
