A lot of what people call maturity is really just being too tired to try something.
Had to do a search. Never tried that particular type.
Stropshire Blue is pretty tough to find in the US but worth the effort. It’s like a strong cheddar with blue cheese veins.
Don’t think about cheese names. It’s nacho problem.
If they censor the news, no one will notice when Galveston floats away…

“Greyshirt” was a short lived comic hero. Based on 'The Spirit" the hero wore mundane clothes with a face mask and fought crime with his fists and wits. Grey shirt refers to the chainmail armor he wore underneath his dapper suit.

Exactly what effort did you put into your [I use the term loosely] joke?
I mean, if you want to talk about effort, you could take the time to repudiate all the Trump pardons and show how they benefitted the country.
Trump pretending to care about China.

It’s kinda problematic. ‘Rainbow kryptonite’ would be more appropriate,

Talk to anyone who was old enough to vote for Clinton.
It wasn’t a big dramatic floor fight in Congress. People started talking about doing away with the ATF, and the idea seemed to be gaining momentum, and then it just…vanished.
I like to post that in 1960, we had a minimum wage of $1.00/hour and the average US home cost $11,000.00
Whenever I do, someone will point out that houses today are, on average, bigger.
They never mention tiny homes and six people sharing a two bedroom apartment…
1·2 days agoI see no advantage to students using AI and many problems.
Unless and until I see an advantage to a new tech, I hold my reserve. Obviously, a typewriter will give you better copy than a quill pen, and a word processor beats both.
But all three of those require the writer to come up with their own ideas.
First, you’ve proven my point about how the interwebs can lead us into stupid, inane, meaningless arguments that prove nothing.
Second, comic book Batman always carries krytonite in case Supes goes rogue, and that beats some surfing gear any day of the week.
This is one of my favorite stories.
The ATF completely screwed up the raid on the Branch Davidian Church in Waco back in 1993. It was indenfesnable and a lot of people started saying that the Agency should be abolished and its responsibilities moved to the FBI.
“Small government” GOPs blocked any mention of the idea, because they were worried about having the FBI looking into gun crimes.
And at the time it was true.
If all the knowledge you have in your society can be memorized and recited, writing it down means it can be changed.
On the other hand, if you have a society where you know of that there are over 500,000 types of beetles, it might be a better idea to come up with a way to record that information without memorization.
Just because an idea is new/old doesn’t mean it’s good/bad.
Things have to be judged on their own merits.
I’ll have to try it.
