It’s also because salt is heavy as fuck, so transporting it from coasts and places with salt mines was expensive.

Isn’t the Defamation League just the friars club?

My first thought: wow, the PPE for the people making road signs must be so involved!

My second thought: unfortunately, probably not at all.

If there were a crime which deserved the death penalty (there isn’t), intentionally poisoning more than 200 children would be it. It’s technically possible that they’re really negligent and stupid, but hiding the paint was definitely intentional and probably caused additional harm by delaying treatment.

He estimated in 2014 that Liverpool’s boycott of The Sun had cost its owners £15 million per month since the disaster, in 1989 prices.

Nah, I get background music because I don’t need “sound” for my thoughts. Generally it’s nice, sometimes it’s baby shark

I process thoughts visually, as typed text. It’s like a fucking ticker tape when I get going having random thoughts and I definitely experience shower thoughts.

It’s a British term for a lawyer who can plead cases in court. Baristas make coffee

Why the fuck are they doubling down after 14 doctors found foul play unlikely?

I generally want to have sex with my husband after reading erotica. You know, because it’s arousing. How did this not occur to them?

That’s not even a stretch. Her full (married) name could easily be Dana Velma Scully, but she doesn’t go by her very distinctive middle name anymore. If I’d had a super funky middle name, I definitely would have used it in high school and definitely wouldn’t as an adult. And I’m not half as (lovably) joyless as Scully is.

The school shooting. Reading the article will help answer these types of questions. I’ll mute you for a while to give you time.

Ooh, ooh! Pick me! It’s because transportation is infinitely more societally useful than punching imprecise holes in things in one of the most dangerous ways accessible to most individuals! There are lots of reasons to ban or limit the use of cars in various public places, but those types of attacks are a reason to install and use bollards.
