can I have the leaf, or is she just showing it to me?

dude. I was at a Christian rehab center several years ago. this one kid came as a resident, his parents having been missionaries in Western Africa.

he kept having “seizures”, except he was completely conscious during them, he would just have fits where he would collapse to the ground and have uncontrollable muscle spasms. I’m pretty sure it was a form of panic attack, but some Christian hypnotherapist had hypnotized him, and “uncovered” a “suppressed memory” of some random African dragging him into the woods and putting a curse on him at knifepoint. when he was having a fit, one staff member would hold his head in a pillow to keep him from hurting himself, and somebody else would read the bible over him.

somehow, this curse was strong enough to overpower the word of god, but not a handful of xanax.

I don’t know why that’s not what I was expecting 😭😭

I was fucking obsessed with this movie in junior high. Charlize in a bra 🥵 Marky-Mark’s bulging biceps…

ye

the ship wasn’t egyptian, just the cargo.

it wasn’t actually an Egyptian ship, it was just headed for Egypt.

this is the second word that Gary Larson has added to the English language.

all of the articles are saying the ship was headed to egypt, not that it was an Egyptian ship. do we know who it was flagged under?

maybe it’s only pistol rated lol that should come in handy in the modern battlefield

and according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Russia has lost 616,300 personnel

yep. I used to work on a paving crew, you have to wear long pants & sleeves no matter how hot the weather because the mix is coming out of the truck at 300°F and you don’t want any molten flecks getting on your skin. 75% of the crew has partially melted boot soles, but one of their wives just showed up with a box of joe in an insulated hot bag

it’s never too hot for hot coffee

it kind of is

you skipped over the part where PETA was infiltrated by a spy ring paid for by Barnum & Bailey and run by the former third highest ranking member of the CIA (who had been convicted of lying to Congress), using their operatives to, among other things, do and encourage behaviors that make the organization look extreme. this allowed it to be taken over by unstable fanatics and successfully destroyed its reputation

you can use the javelin on anything, it will lock onto a hot exhaust. one was used to take out a low-flying helicopter in occupied Ukraine, they were used regularly to take out vehicle-borne IEDs in Iraq, and those are just pickup trucks with armor welded on. I’ve been told it won’t quite lock onto a person, but in direct fire mode you can use it against infantry

yeah but they got a shelf life of 10 years. we were likely paying to replace them already anyway

never mind, this is a brand new production run. looks like they’re doing 4,000 new missiles for the existing CLUs. the missiles are about 250k a pop

it’s not even on Spotify

(I haven’t been following for updates I just remember the headlines when she pulled it)

Teal’c told them in the briefing of this episode that the goa’uld would occasionally send scouts to planets, and that having the scout not return was an effective deterrent, so he knew.
