I'm pretty sure that these idiots who wrote this will only be happy once everyone in this country is miserable and dead. They hate everything about this country.

They all want to become millionaires. Think IPO.

My grandfather got really into video archiving and from the early 80s through 2005 amassed about 14,000 video tapes, mostly of various aviation TV shows. He spent his entire life as an engineer for Lockheed. His entire 2-story condo in San Diego was a massive VHS library with shelving extending 8 ft high.

Anyways, my father and aunt threw it all in a dumpster because they didn't know what to do with it. All they kept were his ashes.... Which almost 20 years later are still sitting on a bookshelf somewhere

Uh, no. And one kick can kill you

Horses can kick forwards, backwards and sideways. They can rear up to about 12 ft tall and stomp your head.

Plus they weigh about 1200-1600 lbs, although percherons weigh much more.

Par for the course for the Trump administration.

Paul Manafort was known by his daughters to force his wife to have sex with Russian Mafia and be gangbanged by other people.

"Brown, a former NYPD captain, noted police are obligated to take a report no matter where the crime occurred and that forcing crime victims to return to where they were attacked is traumatizing. The NYPD said Adams told the 911 dispatcher she would go to the scene, suggesting she voluntarily offered to do so."

"Regardless, when Adams went back to the grocery and called for police from there, it took officers four hours to show up, she said. The officers, she said, appeared to know the attacker, referring to him as “Mr. Fourth of July.”'

Damn. I remember looking at a book at the Grand canyon rim souvenir shop that documented all the hundreds of people who have died by falling into the Grand canyon over the many decades. It's kind of a sobering reality when you stand right on the edge and look down hundreds of feet and realize that it wouldn't take much for your life to end right then and there.

Somewhere a photographer from 20 years ago has a photo of me standing right at the edge probably of this exact same cliff. I still can't believe I did that as I have a severe fear of heights, lol.

Hope the kid gets better and gains a healthy fear of heights after this.

TL;DR: X’s rate increases are costing the service about ¥6 million per month. As that is very expensive, they would rather spend their money developing their own platform and using a free social media platform to disseminate information.

”…move our operations onto different platforms will eventually only result in the same outcome as this time and therefore will not be considered.”

Dude, as an American I had all of my appliances delivered. The Home Depot guys showed up with a box truck. It’s free delivery too so why would you even need a truck…. In fact, you can get a lot of stuff delivered for free or very cheaply from Home Depot.

The truck in this picture is so shiny it’s clearly a vanity vehicle. I’m guessing it’s owned by a member of the US armed forces judging by the star on the side? American military personnel are known to bring their vehicles with them from the mainland, to Japan or Europe.

But they actually are... Down in Miami, wealthy people are fleeing the beachfront property and buying up housing where all the poor people live, which also happens to be further from the beach. There have been a number of documentaries and news segments on this trend which you can easily find on YouTube.
