I suspect you and I are saying “fuck cars” for very different reasons

Be twice as annoying back.

I have never blocked anyone on any platform.

what if the whole thing is emojis?

asking for a friend

Gotta love a story where “mapmaker” is the OP vocation.

The Tiger Lillies — “Banging in the Nails” (youtube music link, sorry)

While I can’t know the spirit in which the song was written, I suspect it was intended to shock and offend. But I’m firmly “death of the author”, so IDGAF. I listen to it as part of my Lenten devotions, a reminder that the sacrifice of Christ is necessary because we humans in general and me specifically are fucking depraved.

If you’re ever in charge of a young child with a stroller, it’s the ultimate shoplifting tool. You can cram all sorts of things under or behind it under the guise of fussing with the baby, and just walk out afterwards, no one wants to stop a fussy baby from leaving a store. Use this to harm predatory corporations that you can’t ethically give money to.

Pale Lights the author’s ongoing serial, is even better. New chaptr just dropped a hour ago!

Series?

• Le Guin’s Earthsea Trilogy

• Lloyd Alexander’s Chronicles of Prydain

• Discworld, especially the Night Watch books

• Orson Scott Card’s Alvin Maker series

Individual Books:

• Robin McKinley, The Hero and the Crown, or anything else she wrote

• Diana Wynne Jones, Fire and Hemlock and Howl’s Moving Castle, or anything else she wrote

• Philip K. Dick, “Galactic Pot-Healer” (Dick straddles the line between science fiction and science fantasy, but this one’s firmly the latter)

• Madeline L’Engle, Many Waters

I’m sure I’ll think of more but my break is up.

Just remember that Dune is only half (eh, two-thirds) of a book, and the story isn’t complete without Dune Messiah.

The next two books are more self-contained.

I thought Butcher’s other series was much better. IDK why it’s called Codex Alera and not something with “Fury” in the name since that’s what all the books have, but it’s a more consistent series than Dresden and with better worldbuilding.

fourteen states void the votes of faithless elector and replace the elector

a larger number bar faithless electors but don’t have any enforcement mechanismor one only have one that affects the elector (but not the vote), making faithless electors illegal if not impossible in a majority of states

aand I’ll just point out right now that faithless elector laws don’t do anything to preserve the power of the state that passed them, only to preserve the power of the two dominant political parties

It doesn’t work at all if electors are barred from being “faithless” by law.

None, I strongly advocate for ethics in all things.

Now if we want to talk about illegal lifehacks, that’s a different ballgame.

I can’t solve all your problems but I can let you know that you can make asterisks display properly by escaping them with a backslash:

college stations and other community radio

many are prohibited by charter from taking paid advertisements

Yes, but rarely, and only independent ad-free stations.

yeah you want a carbohydrate-burning vehicle you get a bicycle

once more: FUCK ICE!

Look, as long as he’s not banging my mom it’s probably okay, right?
