So the J/K-drama style has spread to western romance novels. Not surprising with how K-drama in particular started taking off a few years back.

Porn. It’s written porn, with more story.

I’m so sorry that you’re unable to enjoy nature’s gift, the crab.

I’m guessing you’ve never seen a used tampon because that is not what they look like.

These are rye chips.

Can we leave the reddit stories for reddit?

Well yeah. ICE pays better, is less dangerous, and doesn’t require them to work in a prison all day every day. And ICE personnel have less legal accountability, even, than correctional workers do. Cushy gig for the authoritarians out there.

Reality?

It swims; it’s a fish.

This is historically the case in Japan (birds and fish/seafood not being considered “meat”/animals when it comes to eating them). It started with Buddhism proscribing a meat-free diet, with that being impractical for the vast majority of the population unless some animals were still okay to eat.

No! Then it will shoot water off to the sides. You must hold it, backside up, angled downward.

Obviously, this will depend on the shape of your spoon.

How is anybody surprised by this? They started this sort of international campaign of spying on, kidnapping, and otherwise cracking down on their own citizens decades ago.

I was first informed of the practice by a Chinese friend over 20 years ago. Of course they still do it, and it will be worse now than ever before with how technology has evolved, and with how further entrenched their authoritarian government has become.

Evil to even mention.

If forced to transfer funds to Snap to make full November allotments, there is no means for the government to recoup those expenditures – which is quintessential irreparable harm. Once those payments are made, there is every indication that the States will promptly disburse them. And once disbursed, the government will be un-able to recover any funds.

They are emergency funds. This is what they’re there for!

Buttered toast with garlic powder was my jam back when I was completely impoverished.

So?! How did it go?

Toast with butter and jam.

There is just no way to talk about, write about, discuss, etc, stuff like that, without the air in the room not going still as fuck.

I don’t think that’s true at all. I think there are a lot of people out there who could discuss it, but that requires a significant degree of emotional maturity and there are too many people who can’t step back and be open to discussing topics which make them uncomfortable.

lol

Stephen King is an objectively good writer, especially when it comes to portraying realistic characters, even if his stories aren’t always great. Just because you don’t enjoy something doesn’t mean that it’s not good.

So many of us loved that film without quite being able to say why.
