I'm just this guy, you know? You wanna know something about me, ask. I'm easy that way.

Then you are Peter Steele, and you should write a song about it.

She was just confused, because she is VERY familiar with escorting, and it went way differently than she was expecting......

Indeed, we are very fortunate they never made an unneeded sequel to The Highlander.

Give them time. The first prison camps for those targetted by the Nazi's opened in 1932, but it took them a handful of years to get to the full blown Concentration Camps we all know and remember.

I had a friend who went through academy, and for a while he talked about exactly as if he had gone to basic training. They really start that militarization early, but the key difference is that they are taught to be terrified constantly. My friend stated that they were told regularly that "everywhere you go, there is someone nearby who is waiting for an opportunity to kill you. always." One of the reasons those people go so nuts when someone doesn't immediately bend the knee.

I so want to try building one of these epic scale things, but the cost is so, so far out of reach. Dang it.

...and 50% because they don't care, and believe because they have said "how high" when Trump has said jump, they will be safe in the coming times. They are wrong on that one.

50% because most media outlets are owned by billionaires, and thus they support Trump in his dismantling of the United States because it gets them clicks/profit, and because it will result in both lower taxes for them (not us) while driving down the cost of doing business.

The same premise is used in an episode from the 80's TV show "Darkroom", wherein a soldier ends up having to fight against his sons toy soldiers. Very weird.

Originally, the US sanctions were because Castro nationalized a bunch of facilities of US companies that were in Cuba, and refused to make any payment to those companies for compensation. That is still the case, but also there is a sizeable ex-pat Cuban and Cuban descended voting bloc in Florida (and a few other smaller ones) that will fiercely oppose ANY attempt to normalize relations with Cuba.

A lot of folks will work a plea deal, which a judge will accept. AG says "you plead guilty to this weed charge, we will ignore the cocaine" or somesuch.

Ignore what they say, pay attention to what they do. They always give themselves away.

State funding. And yes. There have legit been gangs made of LA County sheriffs too, with gang tats and hand signs, inside precincts. Nuts.

I've been wary of him every since I found out about his racist cop brother. That he campaigned for. Bit of an issue there, I think.

Missing the point. We aren't all racist, but every one of us has benefited from historical racist laws and policies and bias. Every. One.

I am looking into Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, to maybe unlearn 40 years of bad coping and habits now that I am medicated.

He did not conquer it. He was welcomed with open arms. There is a twist in Russian psyche that is going to take generations to fix.

What Klingons considered honorable differed from Humans. Worf was the best of both worlds, imo.

No Kernmantle rope? Primarily used for vehicle rescue and mountain/rock climbing?

They discussed it in that sham meeting that was televised. They know sanctions are coming, they say they will just outlast the sanctions.
