Saying "literally everything we know about them is because of Muslims" is simply not true. There are physical archeological evidences, inscriptions, monastic literatures, and papyri to name a few. If you're going to make absolute statements you have to back them up absolutely, and you can't.

Arabic scholars contributed greatly, but not "literally everything". Speaking in absolutes is counterproductive and makes you look just as ignorant as someone saying they contributed nothing.

👁️ Surveillance State: I voted Vote Yea.

What a dumb take. What about hitmen? The comparison doesn't track. You're just angsty.

dstx

Nah man your reaction is ridiculous, up in arms about nothing.

dstx

I think for most kids the point of making a carrot pipe is because they don't have access to pipes in general, not because they're trying to avoid metal (though they should).

dstx

I hear you and I believe you, but I would bet he read it that way based on his response. Plus there are certainly people who would have meant it that way.

It's hard to not date when you need to be focusing on getting your own life together. Companionship feels good and I would argue it is a core need for all of us to truly flourish. Definitely focus on yourself for now though, if someone can't respect that, cut them off and don't lead them on (accidentally or on purpose). When you connect with the right person they will be a stress reliever, not a stress creator.

Can't you just scroll past it to the search results?

OP refusing to respond for a night, then posting the screenshot specifically about the money, after he asked when they'd see each other again, comes across as "fix my money problems then I'll have time", whether that's what OP meant or not.

In any case, the communication is horrid on both ends.

dstx

To be fair, body slamming someone onto concrete has a high likelihood of causing bodily harm and could easily kill someone if they hit their head.

dstx

Lol so confident. How tf would you know whether they could have handled that better or not? Dumbass.

dstx

You're wrong about your reason for correcting them - body mass and body fat are not the same thing, scientifically.

However, you are correct in a sense because higher body fat is more directly linked to early puberty than higher body mass. They are wrong because the terms are different, not because they chose a politically correct synonym.

Absolutely nothing I said was cavalier about the drug. In fact, it is a serious matter that warrants much concern. Fentanyl cannot enter anyone's body, police officer or not, unless it has an entry point or is formulated to do so and even then it is nearly impossible to receive a large enough amount quickly enough to OD - this is fact. It is extremely important that this is understood, because fear mongering often prevents or delays treatment.

It is a very potent drug that can and will kill people - and people die when treatment is delayed.

"I don't know how tolerance is defined scientifically, I don't think either of us do."

Lol at this statement. Tolerance is a word with a literal definition you can look up. The other commenter did that hard work for you and told you the answer. You're just willfully ignorant and/or lazy. Or you're high and you think the answer to the definition of 'tolerance' is a philosophical one.

dstx

You cannot OD from simply touching fentanyl, it has to enter your body, unless you have an open wound where you make contact. Prescription patches are engineered to allow the drug to cross the skin, but it takes a long time, so simply touching the patch would not do anything.

The fear mongering over ODing just being close to this drug is bad because this irrational fear can stop someone from helping an OD victim.

Unless this new drug is airborne, no one is going to OD from proximity.

dstx

They dish* it

dstx

Don't worry about them, they clearly don't know how to read before commenting.

Also he didn't say 'if they vote the right way', he said if Republicans win, which is independent of any individual's vote. It is an election promise, like maxintos pointed out.

But Idk if there are any specific laws that deliniate different types of campaign promises being allowed or not, or if specifically promising money makes a difference, because I'm not a lawyer.

Is this not a world filled with varying degrees of superhumans with many different powers; and where intense, often unique, training is fundamental to development?

Ging did the responsible thing, as a full time top tier hunter who's endeavors and other responsibilities would not allow him to be a good parent.

Silva certainly abused Killuat, but they are a selectively bred family of superhuman assassins, so no shit.

dstx

These characters are superhuman, it's not really the same.

dstx

It comes down to the environment they were raised in.

dstx

It does, but it's pretty bogus they didn't have a minimum in the splits. If 100sc is for 12 picks, no one who did better should get less than 100sc.

Ofc they didn't so it is what it is.

dstx

I got 23.5sc for 14 correct picks, my wife got 100sc with 12 picks.

The prize pools wouldn't have a minimum equal to the prize below them.

dstx

They're already selling his cabinets, they don't need to be hired.

Draw was an option when you picked. The 1s and 2s on the right hand side indicate you picked those teams to win, but they did not win in the case of a draw. If you had chosen draw on any of those matches you would see an X in the column with 1s and 2s.
