That one is freaking wild.

How can I make sure I don’t misspell guaranteed when posting? I would share the answer.

Seems like most of the big ones were mentioned. The glaring omission is The First Law trilogy by Joe Abercrombie. Read the first one, and you’ll find yourself finishing the story.

I was looking for a mention of The Powder Mage. I’ve recommended that series to a handful of friends and they’ve all really enjoyed it. A rare 100% approval response.

I read the first book because I’d heard praise for it. It was either during that one, or the next book what I thought:

• orphan
• gifted magician
• professor who hates him
• professor who likes him
• male friend
• female friend
• and some others that I can recall after so many years

…fucking hell. I’m reading a retelling of fucking Harry Potter!

Factually, sure, but emotionally, not even close.

That’s over a few years time. Maybe a little more aggressive than average.

I’m still not used to listening to this administration’s way, way, way over-the-top bloviating like they’re China or North Korea. Fucking hell I wish I’d been born/raised somewhere better.

MAGAt Republicans continuing their record breaking consecutive strings of projection.

I had a similar that didn’t work for shit. I took it apart and took a grinder to the blades to sharpen them up again and it worked pretty good after that.

I hang my stuff inside out to try to cut down on sun fading. I’ve never really given a thought to which way it goes into the washer.

I would expect that it wasn’t a nuke, and I would wonder what blew up.

How would Venezuelan tankers help Putin?

Don’t you follow and obey Orange Jesus?

A friend works for the Department of Defense in Japan and told me a couple of weeks ago that a lot of military folks were already being shipped out.

That’s just stupid. If we were doing that, or if Iran was doing that, the deaths would be so, so much higher. Just to be clear, if/when I can leave this fucking country I will.

I just remember him being all hysterical about “they’re eating pets!!!??!!” and then a bunch of dumb ass MAGAts phoned bomb threats in to Ohio. Stochastic terrorism. I don’t remember him saying he’d bomb though. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It’s just all about captive consumers. Makes zero sense to just not have it a setting. “Do this and you are on your own” OK, and off we should go.

I was talking to a friend years ago and I mentioned this same thing. I tried and couldn’t imagine feeling relaxed even if I won the lotto or something. We were wondering how long it would take to relax, if ever.
