Oh well never met one, and from the little I know they can vary somewhere between late middle ages pilgrims up to the run of the mill religious person with a weird hat.

Instructions unclear, I now have an erection and a browser tab with badly translated Chinese characters.

Have you considered some graffiti?

I’ll put down money on that asshole being a repressed pedophile that decided to beat the kid because he can’t go all ancient greece on him, so he made it the kids fault for being gay and “provocative” (by simply existing…).

It’s fucked up, hope the kid is OK…

The guy playing this is triggering me, is it their first time playing Mario?

Other than that, I wonder if Nintendo would have become less of a douchebag company if they released more on PC, or it was inevitable.

Yeah but it’s like 9/11, all it will do is allow even crazier nutjobs to feel vindicated and make things even worse.

Don’t threaten me with a good time.

In what way? I assume they must have been familiar with how it worked, or was it like performing a magic trick?

Yeah, lucked out there unfortunately, even a car is the better option it seems.

For years I had the luxury of train + subway to work, it was bliss because the train was the long part of the commute and it was quite good, and the subway was crowded but fairly short and very frequent.

Long urban bus routes suck in general, especially if there are no dedicated bus lanes.

It’s pretty obvious that the goal was specifically to allow Carroll to sue Trump

No, it is not, and it’s revolting to me that you’d think that. More than 3000 suits were filed in 1 year under the Adult Survivors Act, are all those “happy little accidents”, or do those people mean nothing and you only care about that one case?

Also, you’re omitting the broader context of the ASA: New York’s had a 3 year statute of limitations for civil suits for sexual assault, and they changed it to 20 years.

This was not retroactive, however, so the ASA was passed to allow alleged victims to bring up their cases.

Another point is that they mentioned motorbike.

Presumably, if done by car the trip would take much longer due to traffic, and be a lot more expensive because of gas+tolls.

Also, come winter, a nearly 2h drive in piss poor weather is a miserable experience.

On a train, you can sleep all that time!

If you’re gonna be picking nits, then at least commit to it.

Trump was found legally liable for sexual assault (and defamation). This is a civil verdict, and it means that the jury found it more likely than not that these things happened. The judge also clarified that the jury’s finding meets the “common, everyday definition of rape”, so while it doesn’t meet the highly specific statutory requirements of New York (which required penile penetration), it is rape.

There was no criminal case, however, and the word “convicted” is specifically used for criminal trials, so it can’t be used here.
The bar is also different: the criminal standard is “beyond reasonable doubt”, while for a civil case it’s “preponderance of evidence” (ie, more likely than not).

I don’t think anyone doubts it happened, but a criminal trial can be gruelling and ultimately lead to nothing. At least she got some vindication, even if it falls short of locking that disgusting scumbag for good.

Brilliant

You mean the shirt? I agree, no Dalek can go wrong with deep blue.

(Oh, Im blind it’s captain Pike, nevermind)

Cuban participation in the war appears primarily driven by its severe economic crisis

That is from the US Department of State.

Judge the Cubans if you must, but most are likely enlisted by russian recruiters under false pretenses, or because getting shot tomorrow in someone else’s war is still better than dying of starvation today.

But WHY are you making it into a trolley problem when it’s not?

The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated…

Ukraine is a hostage because they can’t live without US support.

Cuba is a hostage because it can’t live without outside (Russia, China, or others) assistance with the embargo in place.

It’s a big dog’s world.

Life would be so much easier if you had clearly visible fog doors, but the Devs forgot to add them.

There’s a lot of things that can be done to improve sleep, from lifestyle and behaviour changes all the way up to surgery and medication.

It depends on what the cause is, and I have no idea what your particular issue is, but don’t let that discourage anyone from seeking help and try to improve their life.
