But this should be addressed by the epa fda etc.

But like they're doing this to themselves correct? There's no epidemic of women being forced to be hairdressers and being forced to choose toxic products to use right?

You could also replace prescription sleep medicine with nothing and be better off. Those meds disrupt your sleep cycle to create dependency on them.

No camera in the mayor's office right? That might help.

There's a square in Spain named after a wwi war hero before he later went on to write a book. George Orwell Square.
It's now absolutely covered in cameras.

It was also the thing that made them victorious in battle.
Same with the Sessanid empires horse troops.
Instead dothraki had those stupid sickle things. The fight scene with Jonah Mormont in full armor just not even having to try to trap the guys sickle and easily kill him is it's own demonstration for how useless those are.
And that's key... because they aren't envisioned as having enemies they face in battle that would define their own tactics weapons etc in reaponse to them.

Well this part of rhe problem... I've had this conversation before... there is the expectation of being able to find thenclothes you want in person in a brick and mortar shop so you can try them on.... that's not really our system any more. You can get whatever you want you just have to look online.

I've seen women's pants with pockets. They exist.

This is not true at all. Even women's leggings now have pockets. Outdoor brands like North face and patagucci make women's pants with pockets. They might just even have cargo pockets and not suit your sense of style.

Reply to comment by Kelend in Fencing or swordsmanship during the during the American revolution by Unable-Anybody-2285
But not all sabers are calvalry sabers...
The calvary variant has less of a gradual curve and more quick pronounced bend.
I don't fence you guys know way more than me n that regard I just follow cus I'd like to try...
But I do know the old west Era calvary sabers were designed to supposed cut off a foot soldiers head by riding past them with the sword pointed straight ahead just letting the curve of the sword produce an almost perpendicular blade. I think this technique was supposed to be better than swinging your arm as you rode past... im.not sure why though perhaps just more accurate when riding past at speed? It's a very similar technique to.the way a bullfighter goes in for the killing blow except the saber is so bent instead of a point it creates a.head.choppy off near sideways blade.
Im not even sure it was a good design but there's a whole history of that feature beinf designed in and then redesigned out I've read it just can't remember. I think there were complaints about how they handled when actually fencing another swordsman.

Fencing implies two people fighting each other with swords but I think much more often it was swords deployed by officers on foot or by calvary against normal infantrymen armed with muskets and bayonets.
Calvary sabers really aren't designed for fencing primarily they are designed to be held Ina static position while you ride them into someone. The curve is more drastic towards the end meaning when pointed straight ahead at the hilt would then end up about head high with the end of the blade basically perpendicular to the necks it would encounter.

My dog asked me to kidnap him. He made it really really clear....
First he kept whining and crying trying to jump into my car but it was too full. So I came back and got him later.
Then I had to leave him at a shelter and then guy who ran it told me he got along with everyone but as soon as people tried to adopt him he growled at rhem and refused to get in their car.
He was waiting for me. He'd already decided I was his human, long before I kidnapped him.
They choose their humans sometimes. It's not always so obvious but they do.

Looks just like a hi standard except the single shot thing and I guess being a lot less safe.
I cannot think of another single shot auto ejecting firearm. Seems auto ejection is most of the engineering of just making a semi auto
