The Soviets did not send soldiers to battle without weapons. That is a myth. They fought like hell in WW2 and finishing that is stupid.

Are tech illiterate people intentionally using 3rd party software to change their default browser? Genuinely asking because I have always manually set my default on a new device.

The man said he had cared for a stray cat at his home, the bulletin said.

The cat tested negative for the virus but it “regularly hunted small mammals and frequently scratched the patient,” the bulletin said.

If a cat was frequently scratching me, I might just leave it alone. Getting scratched by stray cats is a bad idea.

Now I'm conflicted. I want the 49ers to win for the Purdy story and to not have the Chiefs be champions yet again. Now I want the Chiefs to win to piss off the right wing crazies.

I think its common depending on the city. In university when I did a lot of walking at night with my friends, a streetlight would turn off at least every weekend. Now years later I'm living somewhere else I'm not walking around at night nearly as much but I do still notice it occasionally.

Given the context, I think its more likely she rode her bike to the protest. Being that its a suburban home, there is probably no place to lock up the bike and since she is outside protesting the bike is within a few feet or at least eyesight the whole time. So there is no need to it up.

I think they don't want to waste time showing the apartment to prospective renters that aren't paying enough attention to the listing only for them to walk in, say " bathtub in the kitchen? No thanks."

"Phoenix Suns guard, Devin Booker has shown his support towards Jonah Hill by sharing his picture on his story. While Jonah Hill and Devin Booker have never been seen hanging out or known to share a friendly bond, the NBA player expressed his support for the actor regardless. Devin Booker shared an Instagram story with Jonah Hill’s picture in which he’s wearing a Phoenix Suns jersey to which the basketball player added a ‘salute’ emoji."

This is the biggest non-story of all time.
