Explain exceptions. Not everything is perfectly black or white and an exception is a weak man's attempt at a 'gotcha'.

Many of these people were brainwashed into thinking they needed the AR-15 for protection by the media, so how is it that the media has very little influence? Even if not directly, they encourage gun ownership by way of hyperbolizing headings and showcasing tragedy because that's what drives views and clicks. Until we start holding them accountable for this, people are going to be frightened into thinking our country is a constant warzone.

I don't need to watch videos about cat ownership, I've had many over many years and they have all been excellent at self regulation because I never gave them a reason to think they couldn't be sure of their next meal. When you put them on a schedule, they learn that food is scarce and they need to take every opportunity to eat when it comes. Don't do that to them and they'll take care of themselves.

Every word of it is true. You apparently aren't familiar with exceptions.

I've had many cats, not one of them turned into a choker, all of them had 24/7 access to food. If you don't teach them to feel like food is limited, they treat it like it's unlimited (meaning they don't eat everything in sight because they don't know when their next meal may come).

Then don't teach them to need your schedule. Ffs cats are easy to take care of as long as you put down food and water and keep their litter box clean. Some people just need to make things more difficult for themselves to feel needed I guess; if that's what you want get a dog.

My cats never woke me up for food because they always had food available. Cats will regulate their own feeding, you don't need to put them on a schedule.

Also place their food and water sources apart from each other, cats don't like to drink where they eat.

Old steam trains burned a lot of coal to make steam, which is dirty, smells bad, weighs too much to make it an efficient energy source for a moving object, and requires a ton of labor to keep the boiler fueled because of the limited space in a train making automated hoppers, like they have in coal power plants, just not feasible.

Oh, and diesel was a much more efficient fuel source and internal combustion a more efficient way of utilizing it. So, because of all that, steam trains died off.

That's what she said

Then quit. Marijuana isn't addictive, the behavior, or routine, is what you're 'addicted' to. Change your routine.

It is a reason, it's just not an acceptable excuse.

Wouldn't that grate allow rain water to drain directly into the room? Is there sufficient drainage in the room to deal with that?

Guinea pigs should never be alone, if you have them you should always have at least 2. Some countries ban only owning one because they consider it abuse.

This works because you're "pin hole" is filtering out "noise" by limiting the light coming into your eye to the light coming off of what you're aiming at only. Not because it focuses anything, your eye is still doing the focusing, it's just not having to deal with a bunch of extra light that isn't part of what you're looking at.

I don't know what "haute cuisine" is, but it sounds like it's pretentious solely for the sake of being pretentious, which is a super-niche kind of thing. Forcing that on a bunch of people who took time out of their schedules to share your day with you, especially if you're also making them travel to do it, means you should really consider offering them real food, and at least 2 options that cover the majority of potential tastes. I hope OP was only being dramatic with "2 ravioli on a leaf of lettuce", but even if that is dramatic it still sounds like the reality of that food is to make a statement, not fill a hungry belly. Weddings are not the place for that.

I wouldn't be surprised if that's the whole point

I think you may have mistaken what you read there. The idea of androids has been around since the 1800 in sci-fi. If you thought I was trying to say Android, the mobile OS, has been around long before mobile OS's you might be daft.

The best part is that they can't turn it back upside right because the tape would fall off.

No, it didn't, but my affection for sci-fi did. Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep is a personal favorite.

You're right, I definitely overreacted to your comment. I honestly am not sure what I was thinking.

Like I told the other idiot, androids existed long before mobile OS's were a thing. Great Ted talk.

Fun fact: Androids existed before mobile operating systems.

What gave it away? That I didn't feel the need to tell you what device I'm using because I think it's a status symbol?

I love how we're all just supposed to know wtf Dynamic Island is. I read the article and I'm still not sure.

Best guess: marketing fluff

Why are our attitudes towards rocketing nuclear material into the stratosphere and beyond all of the sudden changing from "absolutely not" to "this is fine"?
