Fucking capitalism.

Messing up weed by making super strong skunk.

And for the last few years porn has been trying to normalise strangulation, mostly of women, a common and ignored occurrence... Calling it "choke" doesn't change the reality.

It was once, but got kicked out due to new discoveries and equations I'm not smart/mathematically trained enough to understand.

In contrast, bulbasaur is weak to all the birds and bugs that are so common in the early game.

To make it more difficult, Bulbasaur is the only one of the three starters to not learn a STAB move as their first move after the debuff at 5.

Squirtle gets bubble, ember for Charmander. Leech seed for Bulbasaur. And while leech seed has uses late game when you're tanky, it is mostly useless against wild pokémon.

That is to say, both Charmander and Bulbasaur have a lot of trouble early game until you get a diverse team. But Squirtle will just stomp through it all (especially in original Gen1 when Special was imba, combined with its natural high defence state).

We in Europe forget that you yanks can get fired for things like a car break down or a protest stopping you from getting to work on time.

You should probably get some workers rights protests. Consider strikes.

Is there a good reason why dinosaur is only terrestrial extinct reptiles (and a subset at that)?

Do we have a handy term that includes plesiasaur, pteradons and dactyls, as well as dinosaurs?

To highlight how close that known sex pest and molestor was to Epstein?

I recall a lot of AW1 being a fun challenge on Nightmare, but I was also playing it with a bunch of friends and we were chatting and socialising at the same time.
I do recall some enemies and segments feeling artificially hard though.

Good luck and enjoy it.

You're right, the bribery talk is the logical extrapolation of the ruling that is laid out in the dissenting opinion. (and also in a minor dissent from one of the 6 judges who made the ruling.)

Edit: and unfortunately I live in a place where the US supreme Court website does not allow access so I can't read the conveniently shared link. I have tried to find it online and read as much of it as I can. I would like to read the full thing, maybe you could share the image on a Lemmy instance and link to that? You could do the same with the dissenting opinion, too, for completion's sake.

What I can find from the reports and snippets I can find is that the ruling that Roberts wrote talks about not only immunity for official acts, but not using official acts as evidence for prosecuting a US president. This then becomes the talk of bribery as making an appointment is very much an official act, and where that one conservative justice breaks line with the other five, as she maintains that official acts should be eligible as evidence when prosecuting unofficial acts.

Yes, that's the stuff and it's brilliant raw or cooked!

Not sure about this odd tween-spoonerism name, but catchier than asparagus lettuce for sir. E

Thanks, it is fun to play with language. I almost went for the more boring "maculate".

I find something comedic about a Germanesque mash of prefixes and suffixes. Maybe one day I'll stumble across a newfangled word that can live in the cupboard of our collective vocabulary.
