You know you're ginger when you see a picture of the sun and get burnt.
I'd love some Hassars.
That's your prerogative.
I swear spell check wanted to spell that as perogies.
I've been seeing a lot of consolidation of banks in the last five years. My bank was bought out, and as it was transferring my account another bank bought the bank that bought the bank. Service was terrible during that time because it was a bunch of ships sinking.
They are the aliens making pyramids.
You can argue with him on the matter. I like epic for it's game engine.
Could you give me more explanation?
What's weird is how often I see the same thing with European cultures. My wife is icelandic, but can't speak the language because everyone speaks to her in English. She tries to find out stories, but the locals think it's going to be misused. I've tried telling them how many times I've seen this song and dance before, but they don't believe me.
For the tribes, it's hard to imagine the culture dying because everyone around them is that tribe. They don't see 30 miles outside of it where no one has a clue.
Why did you get a negative for that point of view? You didn't even mention Formula 1.
Personally I want the protest to be at the rose bowl, and then make sure the counter protestors enter the other side. The fights will continue to happen, might as well sell tickets.
They need to also bike a lot as well.
Did you see the full house built in Seattle?
It's probably a turnpike or median, and the people dress and act like RPG characters. If one of them threw a lightning bolt, I would not be shocked. My tires would save me.
Very true.
Would a sapient AI even care about what we would assume it should? It can't touch things, so it has no idea what velvet feels like. It has no body, so clothes are a human thing. Sort of like when Data was first being made, he walked around naked because he had no reason not to.
Space is dangerous and has a lot of difficulty. It also has some great potential being stymied by politics on earth. I like that term Stellar Diaspora.
Most people want 8 or younger because they can shape the kid better. If they get aggressive or have problems, its easier to fix and take care of. You also have the joy of seeing them enjoy a new thing for the first time. Ice Cream, Disney World, the Ocean, and other stuff is all new to them.
10-14 are the monster years which mean Bipolar disorder, crazy aggression, and having medical needs but using them to control others. I had one hit on my wife, another peel skin off his foot to get medical attention, and another tried to kill us while we were driving somewhere. You need to be prepared for this, and not think you can win them over by personality alone. If you can't handle them, give up quickly and tell the case workers so you are not stuck.
After that age, they tend to do better, but it's not the same as being the parent the entire time. You accept it's more like being an aunt and uncle who took them in, not the full parent who they've known their entire life. On the other hand, you get a fully-fledged buddy without having to deal with all the previous mess. Talk cars, play videogames, and go places without all of the worries.
The big issue is the foster system itself. The people who work in the Foster program often treat these kids in the same way a car salesman will work his trade. This kid has a newly built engine... They got out of the psyche home. This kid has no aggressive tendencies, just acts up every now and then. Said acting up destroys half the house with no real stop valve. Low miles, the kid has been through so many homes the schools stopped caring who was taking them in that day. Stuff like that.
Then you have the original parents. They can show up unannounced, or sneak phones or other methods to stay in touch with their child. That's a lot of problems because theirs a reason why those parents aren't allowed contact. This can include other foster parents.
We had my wife's cousin over and her twin boys. We called the boys the Daleks because of how destructive they were. We got them those walking chairs, and they moved around like the Daleks. We found out why the entire family told us to beware of the cousin. She slept with a neighbor while drunk and high, stole our stuff, gave it to other neighbors, and did the same with all sorts of people online. Stuff was broken with no real explanation and then blamed on raccoons or the twins. If this had been a foster program, the cousin would have been kicked out without even a question. It made me realize why there are so many rules about parents.
The biggest problem I have is I have no idea how long we will have a kid. It can be a few days to months. There is no warning or preparation. So we have had to be thick-skinned on that issue. Most kids are told to call us Auntie or Uncle from the Hawaiian tradition and leave it at that.
Agreed.
I'm a foster parent. There are more people wanting to help than kids who need it. This means the really nasty ones can get tossed around every few weeks and make up all the bad stories you read about.
He will be just as controlled as he was beforehand. I hope his family said goodbye before he went full meat puppet.
I just assumed they used AI voice. That is impressive.
Made me laugh. Good job.
The entire economy based on those offices is being lost, aling with any reason to have large companies. If we can work on multiple projects at home, all of the previous set up are gone.
This is sad to see. Acaster seems like a funny guy and has had me laugh several times. Who broke him?
I would love the Hessians vs Yankees games.
